This was the essay topic on a language test I had previous year  there are 2 points, one is about children learning about the planet and the other is a vote for animal-friendly lifestyle.

Might be so if one spends much time there, procrastinating and not doing the job. Or putting too much personal info may lead to some unwanted consequences.

I write about my adventures while I was travelling, about interesting places, people I've met or about studying abroad. Basically I just try to make some fun from my life experience.

Keep learning and improving you skills. Set the priority and always keep in mind what is the goal you'r willing to achieve. Don't just trust, do research.

Learnin any language in a few easy (or not that easy) steps:
1 choose a book
2 create a study plan (like "I'll spent 1 hour a day 4 times per week)
3 stick to the plan and do units one by one
4 find something to listen in your target language and put it into ur player
5 keep going through units and listen as much as possible (use checklist "I've studied today")
6 as you fell more comfortable and able to compose a simple phrase, go to lang8 or italki and find a language partner to chat with
7 ? ? ?
8 PROFIT!

Space engineer! I still love that stuff  

Nothing too hot and humid at the same time, nothing poorly developed and highly religious.

Do not bother about what people think. Don't be afraid to do what you want. Hurl yourself. There is no way to exit this game alive, so just go play it well.

Personally I would have some sleep or read a good book or sit alone, listen to music and look at some nature. Or go to the saeshore, forest, kinda meditate.
Really nice thread, btw, many good ideas above

Earth is not flat. Otherwise cats would have thrown everything away a long long time ago.

Games might be nice and usefool tool, but I dont like the idea of these "eat as fast and much as you can" contests. But for self-development, training, learning and work it can really be of assistance. For example such apps as Habitica, Do it now and many others. Do you personally use any methods for yourself?

So, hows it going so far? Did you recover?
As for the question, it is quite helping to keep in mind that the situation will not last forever. And, well, perform some actions to change some things you can change by yourself. Sometimes asking for help is also not bad idea, but chose wisely who to consult with.
