Selma's Self Introduction
Hi, my name is Selma; I'm 70 years old and retired. I have a part time job for car leasing company. I work two days a week and I really love the job. It mainly consists of answering the phone, doing some typing, paying some bills, and now I'm learning to work the computer. The computer is a wonderful thing and I'm finding it very very interesting to do. The car leasing business is an unusually new business. You can lease a car for two or three years and at the end of that time you can either buy it or you can trade it in for a new car. Many people seem to like this idea and it has really caught on. I'm also a homemaker. I have a husband, I have two married daughters and two grand children. The grandchildren's ages are fourteen and twenty-four. We live in a retirement community. The retirement community has tennis courts, swimming pools, a golf course and a club house. The club house consists of a building with a number of rooms where we take classes and courses. Our community is near a large college town, which is really a wonderful thing to have nearby. It has an art museum, and we are also able to avail ourselves of the classes given at the university.

Art's Self Introduction
Hello, my name's Art. I'm 74 years old and I live in a retirement community with my wife, Selma. I retired about twelve years ago from the bicycle business. I was in the bicycle business for thirty-five years. Twenty of the thirty-five years I ran my own business. After I decided to sell my business, I became a draftsman. I worked at being a draftsman for five years and then I retired. The retirement community I live in requires you be forty-eight years or older. In the community I engage in many activities: oil painting, water color painting, stain glass projects. My major activity, however, is golf. Weather permitting, I play everyday. We have a golf course in the community, and since I play more often than I used to before I retired, my game is improved very much.

I don't like it when I see a dead animal by the side of the road. And I don't like pistachio ice-cream.

Baking Bread
Now I'm going to talk about how to make bread at home. Erm ... I don't like to use a machine. I do it all with my hands. Erm ... all you do is take some flour and some water and yeast. And first you put the yeast in the water and that makes it wake up and you give it some some sugar to eat or some honey and that makes it wake up and start growing. And then you mix together some flour and ... you can use different kinds of flour like white or whole-wheat. And then you put the water with the yeast in it into the flour and mix it all up. And then you er kneed it. You mush it around and kind of mix it up. And then you let it sit. And then that's the part where I clean up and go do something else. And that's why baking bread, although it takes a really long time, it takes all day, but you don't have to ... you can do other things. So then after... er after awhile you come back to the dough and it's grown. It's ... it's twice the size of last time. So you punch it down, mush it up, kneed it again and let it grow again. And then finally you shape it and make it into loaves that are the way ... the shape you want them to be and put them in the oven. And then after an hour, you come back and it's done. And it's the best food in the world right out of the oven.

Undercover Shopper
One of the things I love to do most is shopping, most definitely. So I decided that I'd make a job out of shopping. And I became an undercover shopper. This means that I go to different stores and act like I'm shopping. But really I'm observing that associates ... making sure that they're doing a good job, and they ask the customers the right questions and they service them properly. And it's nice for revenge, especially when they don't do their job, I know I can get them in trouble. But it's just a lot of fun because I get paid to shop and it's probably one of the best job I've ever done. I know all the malls in this area, and I've been to New York and it's good experience

Trouble with Credit Cards
Simply I'll tell ... this is a story about the summer, this past summer, and my shopping experience. I love shopping. And I love clothes. And I love to get dressed in all different types of clothing. I went through a stage of vintage clothing where I just wore vintage clothing from the fifties, no, yeah, fifties on up. Erm this summer I ... I got ... I acquired four credit cards. Now being a freshman in college ... erm ... you shouldn't really get credit cards, because they are so tempting. But I got them, and yeah, I thought I could trust myself, but I ... you know, I sort of ran them all up. And one had a thousand dollar limit, and one had a 790 ... 700 ... er 800 dollar limit, another one had a 500 dollar limit and the other one had a 300 hundred dollar limit. And I think I have all together out of all of them about 60 dollars.
So er... I ... in the beginning, I just bought little things like little tickets for, you know, a play here and there, for a party here and there, you know, then, one day I just decided to go out and go shopping for summer clothes, because I only had three pairs of shorts. So I took my sister and my mother to New York. We had a wonderful day in New York. And I think I spent about 340 ... 400 dollars, like 250 on clothes and the rest on food and, you know, little knickknacks. And now I'm thinking, OK Ebony you're gonna stop now, you've got summer clothes, you're OK. So here's July and am buying little gifts for my mother ... she's going to be 47 this year. And er all these little things ... you know I made a down payment on my first car off of the credit cards ... so I didn't realize how that ... all that added up.
Erm, now here comes August, and I'm thinking OK I'm getting bills ... they're saying 800 dollars, and 600 dollars and and like ... waho ... oh ... oh my goodness. So you know, I haven't stopped yet, though, because I have them ... I have ... I keep one... I stopped ... I put two away ... I acquired another one mid- summer ... used about 300 dollars on that one ... and er I had one more that I was still using because it was my AT and T card ... it was also a phone card, so it was very helpful. Erm but anyway, erm I finally started using I ... I continue to use to that AT and T card. And I saw little sales that just, you know, I couldn't resist. They were perfect sales, and ... they were good sales, but I didn't have money. It was ... I was using the credit cards, so I finally, you know, I called one day, I tried to use the AT and T card and it said no. And I called them and they said it's been shut off because you're thirteen dollars over your limit. I said waho. So I said OK Ebony, what you must do is to fix this problem now. You put yourself in a bind and youll fix it. How'll you do that? Erm ... I talked to one of my doctors actually. My doctor told me that he did it this he was younger. He got a loan and paid it off in about a year and a half, or a year while he was still at school. And it was done with. So that's what I'm going to do. I'm going to get a loan October, pay them all off, learn from my lessen, and get one later on in life where I can really use it.

Diverstiy in California
Ok, one of the great things about California, which singles that state out over everybody and especially southern California, is its diversity. You have this huge Mexican influence in California. And it can be seen everywhere, in the houses, in the way of stucco design and everything. As soon as you go there, you know you are in California. And the street names er ... I dare anybody to find street name doesn't have ... that is in English rather than Spanish. Everything is in Spanish over there. And ... part of it is because erm Mexico is so close and there are so many immigrants in that area that they've influenced California so greatly. And I'm sure part of it has to do with that California was once a part of Mexico. California is a Mexican word and ... or a Spanish word. And erm ... not only is is the Mexican culture prevalent there, but the Asian culture is. You have a lot of Chinese, Japanese and Korean, all coming to California because it's the closest place to Asia. And it's ... it's really interesting because erm in a lot of places there ... there is no exposure beyond Caucasians. But in California there's everybody.

A Trip to France
Er this summer I spent a week in France. It was my first time ever being there. And French was the foreign language that ... that I ... I studied in school for about 7 or 8 years. So I was really psyched to ... to go and finally go to the country where I had studied the language. But it was going to be real challenge to be able to really understand it when I heard real French people. Er ... the problem was that I was staying with an American. So anyway first of all, we were coming from London ... we took the underground ... the ch ... the er whatever they call it under the Channel, the train. And we got out into France. And it looked different. The sky was a slightly different color. They had poppies. It was really nice. Erm ... and I wasn't really understanding a whole lot of the French. But I was definitely, you know, when you hear it you start thinking it, kind of wanting to speak it. Er ... but I was staying with an American. And so it wasn't really as much practice as I should've been getting. And the other problem was that I was staying with one person. And I had to spend the whole time with this one guy. And that wasn't really the best situation that ... that it could have been for us at that time, for me, I don't know I ... it would have been better with a bigger group. Er ... but we did spend one night at suarre [a French word] a real ... you know all the difference courses. And the two of us sat with these two young French guys and we talked the whole night. And the next day I was ... the day that I had to go home. By that time, I was understanding all the announcements on the train, you know. I could say anything. I could understand, you know, much more of what I was hearing. And I could just talk about anything with ... with anyone. And the thing I learnt is that in a foreign country, it's not about words you say, it's all sign language.

Friends of Tibet
I'm involved in a group called The Friends of Tibet. What this group tries to do is raise awareness of the situation going on in Tibet. And we also raise money to send to refugee camps and schools for refugee children in Nepal, Ladakh and in Lhasa. There's a lot of problems going on over there. There is political fighting about the boundaries of the country and who owns it. But the most immediate problem to me is that an entire ancient culture is being destroyed. It is almost exactly the same as when Europeans came to North America and wiped out an entire world of people. It is the same thing that Tibetans have a unique culture, unique religion, and it's forbidden for them to live this anymore. It is forbidden for them to speak in their own language, they can't wear their traditional clothing. I know someone who has friends. She is from Tibet. Her friends have served 6 year jail sentences for having pictures of Dali Llama inside their own homes, because sometimes the Chinese authorities will just knock on people's doors randomly and check for things like that.
So we are concerned because the school children are being taught in Chinese. They don't understand the language. They 've been edged out of jobs. Tibetan people are forced to retire at about age 40 or so. And the entire country is demoralized. The young people now are on the streets of Lhasa, and they don't care about studying, and they are starting to just drink too much, and just totally waste themselves. It is the saddest thing for people to go there ... is to see that the people seem to have given up their spirit and that's the most dangerous thing. So we are trying to raise awareness in the United States. People say Oh it's so trendy and popular. But I don' care what they call it because if people learn more about this little country it becomes real to them, and it will become outrageous to them for it to be destroyed. I think that public opinion can change political situations. So that's what we are hoping for.
We invite speakers. We are actually having the Dali Llama's brother coming in October to speak about Buddhism. This spring, we had some monks who made a sand mandala. They did some Buddhist rituals and we ... we had these 8 monks living in our homes for a weekend. It was very interesting. And we have ... we show films about the country, and hand out literature and information. And the other thing we do is to raise money. We support an orphanage in ... Nepal in a very poor region of Nepal that people don't go to a lot. And there's a school in Ladakh for Tibetan children. And now, we are supporting a project for refugee women to start their own little businesses. We are also helping to build a new orphanage outside Lhasa. It doesn't take very many American dollars to go very far in Tibet. So hopefully we can have some impact.

Stuck Up a Mountain Road
One of the more interesting stories I have from my running experience in college involves er one of our training runs. Erm the college I went to was ... er is up in the mountains, so a lot of our runs ... we had to drive out to a mountain and run through the mountain. And the one time that sticks out the most is when we were doing a certain workout. We were running up the side of the mountain for a mile and then we'd have to run back down and we had to do this five times. Well, the group that I was in was lagging behind a little bit, so we were the last few people to get to the top of the mountain. And our coach would drive us out there in a van and er he would ... since we the last people to get up to the top he was waiting there for us in the van and he picked some of us up.
So er if ... if you've seen my coach drive then you would understand why this would be a scary experience. Because the mountain roads er ... are what they called switchbacks, which means they just go back and forth to er kind of lessen the strain of going straight up the mountain. You just kind of sidewind back and forth to get to the top. So, there's a lot of turns and a lot of really er about pretty much 180 degree turns. So when we're going back down after he picked us up to get back to the school ... er he was ... and I also have to tell you that these roads are only wide enough for a small car. So the van can only fit ... er just barely. Well, he had a tendency to drive 50 miles a hour down these roads. And it's really narrow and it's a gravel road, so the van slides a lot. Er after we made one turn and we're going about 40, 50 miles a hour down this er ... down the side of the road er a car came around the bend. It was coming straight at us. Well he ... hehehe ... he panicked, he hit the brakes and we slid into the side of the mountain and luck ... no one was hurt; that's why it's a funny story. But er when he slid into the side of the mountain, the back of the van got caught in a ditch. And we were stuck on the side, kind of leaning into the mountain side. And the other car was fine they didn't get hurt ... actually, they just kept going on and er ... laughing at us because we were stuck.
So we only had six people to push the van out. And we couldn't, because we were stuck on a tree stump. So our coach decided to break into a log cabin, that was up on the mountain side, and steal one of their axes. And we tired to ax down this ... this stump. Well, when we're trying to ax down the stump, the person, I guess, came back home and saw that their cabin was broken into and called the police. Hahaha, and the police had to come up the mountain. So by the time that we got everything ... we got the van unstuck and we're pulling out, er the police were looking around for someone that had stolen an ax and broke into a cabin because they didn't know what else he might have stolen. So we were pulled over and questioned and almost arrested ... the whole team. And we had to talk our way out of it. But that ... that turned out to be ... instead of a two-hour training run that ended up being, I guess, around eight hours ... up in the mountain and in the middle of the night, trying to explain to the police that we really didn't break in just to steal money. We just had to get ourselves stuck out of the the side of the mountain. So that's one of my more memorable college experiences, especially with running.

First Car Drive Alone
My first day of driving on my own with er my brand new drivers license is going to be a day I never forget. Er ... I was er ... I borrowed my parents' car ... one of my parent's cars ... they had two. It was a white sedan. And I went to school. And after school, I went to my hair dressers to get my hair cut. And I parked it in the lot. And she washed my hair, and she er ... put it up in clips on my head and cut my hair while I had a smock on. And we're chatting as the hair dressers and their clients normally do. When and all of a sudden, I realized that the place was completely empty except for the two of us, my hair dresser and I. And I was wondering what ... what was going on. And as I was thinking this, someone came back into the store ... into the shop and they said 'Does anyone out here ... does anyone in here have a white car?' and I said 'Well I have a white car.' And he said 'Well, it's on fire'. And I jumped up and I screamed, and I ran out the door, and I saw my parents car. It was ... there was smoke coming out of it. And there was fire trucks and police cars and wailing sirens, and everyone was looking at this car. And here I was with my hair up in ... my wet hair up in clips on top of my head and in this smock and looking like ... I don't know what. And I could not believe this is happen on my first day. And I thought what is my mother going to say? What have I done? And a policeman came over and we called my mother, and when I told her what happened, she said, indeed 'What have you done?.' And the policeman explained to her that there was ... that was caused by some loose wires in the trunk. Well anyway, it did turn out not to be my fault. But I was very shaken. And I thought this might a bad omen that there was going to be more incidents like this in the future. But fortunately that hasn't happened yet.

Volunteer Work in Ecuador
Three year ago I participated in the program Amigos de las Americas, which means Friends of Americas. It's a volunteer organization based in Houston Texas. It's similar to the Peace Corps except that it's for shorter time periods and it's basically targeted at people in high school or the early college years. What it is is they send out those students who know Spanish or Portuguese depending on what country you go to. They send them to different countries in Latin America to do community service work. They have different ... they have many different projects. There are many different projects. They have community sanitation project in which the volunteers build latrines and do community service talks. They also have projects in which volunteers actually give vaccines to humans. I think that project is based on Paraguay.
Then the project I participated in was rabies vaccination which is in Ecuador. It's actually kind of interesting how I decided to participate in this. At the point in my life at which I went to ... in which I participated in Amigos, I was very interested in human medicine. So I really wanted to do human vaccinations which would have meant I would have gone to Paraguay. But as it turns out that the program was filled and so I had to decide what program I wanted to participate in. I ... er ... I've also been very interested in animals and loved them my whole life, so going to Ecuador looked good. But I wasn't still quite sure about that. But then, since when I was in 6th grade, I did a report on Ecuador and I absolutely fell in love with it, that was what basically tied the knot and made me want to go to Ecuador.
So, I went to Ecuador and I did rabies vaccinations for eight weeks. We also taught English for a little bit. And we did many er ... charles [an unknown Spanish word] which would be kind of like informational talks about dental hygiene, sanitation, nutrition. And we also planted some gardens and did some talks about that. We talked about rabies, the dangers of smoking, and we made a big huge mural with a lot paintings at the elementary school and we got to meet a lot of nice people. That was actually how I met my ... who's now ... the man who's now my husband, so I highly recommend the program but ... hahaha ... not really for that reason, but it's a very good program. Anyone who's interested in going to Latin America, and has a strong interest in community service I would definitely recommend that they participate.

Differences between US and UK Schools
There're quite a few differences between secondary school in the US and the British system. One thing a person would notice right away if they went into a school is that in US high schools the students can wear anything, but in the British schools they wear uniforms. In terms of the curriculum, in the British system it's a national curriculum. All the schools teach the same thing. And they are all heading for GCSE exams when student is about sixteen years old. Or a few years ago it used be the GCE exams or the famous O-levels. Americans don't have any exams similar to that. Eventually they take the SAT which is a multiple choice test. But the the GCE or O-level exams are completely different. Those are all essay questions and some short answer questions. And each exam takes three hours or so and you have sometimes several exams for each subject.
Another big difference between the American and British system is that after about age sixteen, the students in the British system start their A-level course. This is a two-year course and students would take three or at the very most four courses only. So they' re really starting to specialize by that time. Whereas in the US system, the students continue to take a larger variety of courses, math, languages, history ... er but they take fewer hours of that course since they're taking perhaps eight courses as compared with only three courses. So by the time a student in the British system takes his A-levels he is actually quite good in the three courses he's taken. In terms of getting into university, in the US system, one needs a good grade-point average and a good SAT score and of course some extra-curricular activities and recommendations and things like that. Once they get into university, they don't necessarily declare what major they want to be until the end of their sophomore year. And regardless of what major they have, they still have to take variety of courses. In the British system, a person declares their major even when they are applying. And from the time they enter university, their courses are very very much geared to that major. Because they've gotten a head-start sort of speak from the specialized A-level courses, quite often they can get a bachelor's degree in three years as compared with four years in the US system. Basically, I think the UK system is quite good for students who know what they want to do from young age and who have obvious strengths in certain areas. The US system might be a little better for some students who really don't know what they want to do.

The Ukrainian Education System
The system of junior education in the countries of the former Soviet Union is quite different from that in the United States. Because we don't have any separation ... any division for secondary school, high school, or something ... primary school or something else, because there's only school in the Ukraine. It takes 10 years for you to complete it. You start when you are 7 and you graduate when you are 17. Of course, there is some other option which is 8 year program. It works when a person really feels that he doesn't need any other education and that person feels that he or she should go and find some work. For all other people, it's a 10 year program. And as soon as you are done with that you may apply for the study in the university. And definitely you may or you may not get accepted. That means that some people will go to the university to pursue higher education, some people will go to training schools, and some people will go to find some job that they can get with their kind of education. So that means that the junior education takes 10 years, and there is a certain assigned set of classes that you are supposed to take, which is similar to the system of higher education in the Ukraine. So that means that you have to take your math, you have to take your physics and so on.
And another particular feature about the junior school in the Ukraine and the Soviet Union was in ... even in the recent years that we didn't have any access to computers for example, which is pretty wide spread in the United States. But surprisingly, I would say it didn't affect the abilities of the graduates really a lot. Because at this point I feel that it's a more or less general policy in the United States that computers could affect the abilities of students in school greatly. But my own opinion that it's not always true, because for example I know from my own experience that I didn't have any access to computers while I was a student at school. And first time when I touched the button on the keyboard when was I was the student of the first year at the university. Well, seven yeas later, right now I now working in the computer based applications for the drug design, which means that I'm working with the UNIX-based computers and with the work stations. And I don't feel that I have a lot of trouble with that. Well, I think that the only conclusion you can make from that is that it's not the computer that defines the ability of the person but it's the person that should have that ability in order to operate that computer or to make any decisions. That means that if the person is smart enough, he will get ... he will get any answers from any problems. And it doesn't depend on the presence of or absence of the computer in the classroom. But that's my own opinion and ... it may not be true.
