What is the best thing to do when you are learning something new?
In order to learn something new I have two tips:
1. Apply what you learn.
Try to find a way to apply the knowledge that you want to learn.
If you’ve just read an interesting book, and want to make sure that new knowledge sticks in your head for longer than 24 hours, try writing a review online. Or try explaining what you’ve just learnt to a friend.
Often trying to teach something will reveal gaps in your own knowledge (which you can then fix). The person you teach it to is unlikely to understand any subject related jargon, so you’ll be forced to understand the concept at a fundamental level and explain it in your own words.
2. Spaced repetition.
It’s extremely important to review the material that you learn.
Your brain is a very fickle beast. Imagine you are trying to learn Chinese. If you learn a new word on Monday, you are very likely to have forgotten that word by Friday. Your brain won’t keep information it doesn’t think you need. That’s why it is important to revise.
However, your brain doesn’t forget things at a constant rate. The time before you forget something increases each time you revise. This is good news! If you’re efficient, you can revise things just before you forget them. They’ll stay in your long term memory and you won’t waste time revising when you don’t need to.
Spaced repetition is a learning technique that incorporates increasing intervals of time between subsequent review of previously learned material in order to exploit the psychological spacing effect. It was discovered by C. A. Mace in 1932. After you first learn a word, you’ll want to revise it after increasingly long intervals, for example after: 1 hour, 5 hours, 1 day, 5 days, 25 days, 4 months.

Friendship
Friendship is a feeling of love and affection of one person for another. This feeling of love must be reciprocated. Otherwise friendship cannot be possible. Friendship does not exist where tastes, feelings and sentiments are not similar.
The famous essayist Bacon has warned against the friendship between a very rich person and a very poor person. Economic disparity damages friendship. Thus friendship is a feeling of affection between two likeminded persons of uniform status.
It is said that a friend in need is a friend in deed. There may be many friends at the time of prosperity. But most of them desert at the time of adversity. We can examine the sincerity of a friend during our time of hardship and trouble. Only a sincere and faithful friend remains with us at the time of our trouble. All others leave us. It is very painful when our friends turn traitors.
Money is an enemy of friendship. Everybody has an attraction for money. When lending or borrowing of money is done between two friends, there is great risk. Friendship may be affected. So it is wise for true friends to avoid monetary transaction. Vanity is another element which breaks friendship. Everybody has self-respect. When a person tries to criticise his friend, their friendship is affected. So friendship must be treated very delicately.
Very often some hypocrites pretend to be friends. They are more dangerous than avowed enemies. By telling soft words they bring enormous ruin to us. A true friend never exploits. He rather surrenders. But at present, the meaning of friendship has changed.
There are many fair-weathered friends. They terminate their friendly tie as soon as their interests are fulfilled. It is very difficult to find a true friend today. It is better to establish true friendship with either a dog or an elephant. Both these beasts will remain faithful to their human friends. Today, friendship between two persons is short-lived.
Good friends exercise good influence. They always help their friends, in distress and inspire them to walk on the right path. But evil friends ruin us completely.

how to look???
“She looked up and ran her eyes over me,
slowly, while I stood and wondered why. Had she forgotten what I looked like? But she finished with a big smile. She really did like me, the idiot.”

what is sleep in reality???
“Weren't we all crazy in our sleep? What was sleep, after all, but the process by which we dumped our insanity into a dark subconscious pit and came out on the other side ready to eat cereal instead of our neighbor's children?”

A Quote
“Whatever made me the way I am left me hollow, empty inside, unable to feel. It doesn't seem like a big deal. I'm quite sure most people fake an awful lot of everyday human contact. I just fake it all. I fake it very well, and the feelings are never there.” DeXter
