안녕하세요.
저는 이번에 여행을 다녀왔어요.
4박 5일 여행을 다녀왔는데 지금은 여행 중에 쌓인 여독을 풀고 있어요. 

저는 이번 여행에서 태어나서 처음으로 오로라를 봤어요.
운 좋게 오로라를 볼 수 있어서 정말 기뻤어요.
아직도 그날 밤하늘을 잊을 수가 없어요.
태어나서 지금까지 본 밤하늘 중에 가장 비현실적인 하늘이었어요.

밤하늘에 별이 수없이 많았는데 그렇게 별이 가득한 하늘은 처음이었어요.
그리고 오로라는 정말 신비롭고 마법처럼 느껴지는 색깔과 모양이었어요. 
초록빛 오로라가 까만 밤하늘에 아주 예쁘게 춤을 추고 있었어요. 
너무 아름답다, 그리고 예쁘다는 말밖에 나오지 않았어요. 
정말 꿈 같은 순간이었습니다. 

그곳에 모인 많은 사람들이 오로라를 보고 싶다는 마음으로, 거기까지 그 추운날 갔다는 것도 정말 특별했어요. 그때 기온이 영하(-) 29도였거든요. 와.. 정말 그렇게 추운 날씨는 태어나서 처음 겪어 봤어요. 5분만 밖에 있어도 추웠는데 오로라를 보기 위해서 2시간 동안이나 밖에 있었어요. 진짜 너무 추웠어요. 어떻게 이렇게 날씨가 추울 수 있지? 놀랐습니다. 한국에서는 절대 경험할 수 없는 추위였어요.

정말 추웠지만
그날 밤하늘은 아주 오랫동안 제 기억속에 남을 것 같아요.
너무나도 아름답고, 황홀했고, 신비로웠고, 마법 같았어요. 

제가 본 수많은 별들과, 떨어지는 별똥별을 보며 빌었던 소원들, 
마법 같은 오로라를 보았던 그 기억은 저에게 소중한 추억이 될 거예요.

힘든 일이 있을 때마다 어려움을 잘 극복할 수 있게 힘을 주는 그런 반짝이는 기억이 될 거라고 믿습니다.

여러분도 특별히 기억에 남는 하늘이 있어요?
어떤 하늘을 좋아해요?

전세계 그 어디에서나 우리가 보는 하늘이 같다는 사실이 가끔 큰 위로가 될 때가 있어요.
 
여러분이 바라보는 하늘이 지친 하루를 위로해 주는 따뜻하고 포근한 하늘이기를 바랍니다.

감사합니다.

Spanish Hacks and Tips

1. COGNATES between English and Spanish. Part 1.

You just got into bed after a long day, and you're exhausted. You plan to spend a few minutes on your phone — maybe scrolling Instagram or TikTok — and then sleep.

But when you try to sleep, it's not as easy as you thought it would be. You were so tired — what happened?

According to a new study, your phone may be the problem.

The study, done by researchers at New Zealand's University of Otago, involved 85 kids aged 11 to 14. They each spent a week wearing a body camera on their chest starting from three hours before they got into bed.

A second camera was also placed in their bedrooms to monitor their phone use once they were in bed. They also wore a device that tracked their sleep.

The researchers found that 99% of the participants used their phones in the two hours before bed. More than half used their phones while they were in bed, and about a third used their phones after trying to go to sleep.

The results showed that screen time in bed affected participants' sleep — it stopped them from going to sleep for about half an hour, and also reduced the amount of sleep they got.

The impact was larger when participants had a more interactive experience — such as playing a game — or if they used more than one screen. For every additional 10 minutes of this type of screen time, sleep time was reduced by the same amount.

Interestingly, phone use in the two hours before bed had little impact on sleep.

According to lead researcher Bradley Brosnan, the results suggest that, while current guidelines recommend no screen time in the hour or two before bed, keeping phones out of the bedroom might be enough for a better night's sleep.
