 Content for Note-Making Practice: "Time Management at Work" Time is one of the most valuable resources in the workplace. Good time management helps employees meet deadlines, reduce stress, and improve productivity. It involves planning your tasks, setting priorities, and avoiding distractions. For example, making a to-do list at the start of the day and ticking off tasks as you complete them can help you stay on track. Avoiding unnecessary meetings or phone use also saves time. Time management is not about doing things quickly but doing the right things at the right time. It allows for better work-life balance and more efficient use of energy.

  1. A Day Without Technology  A day without technology would feel strange at first, but refreshing. I’d start with a morning walk, enjoying nature without music or notifications. Then, I’d read a book and maybe draw or paint—things I often ignore because of screens. Cooking lunch from a cookbook, not a YouTube video, would be fun. I’d spend time talking to my family, playing board games, or writing in a journal. At night, instead of watching TV, we could tell stories or read by candlelight. Without distractions, I’d feel more present and peaceful. It might become a habit I’d enjoy repeating. 2. Haunted Emoji Story Emojis : 🏚️🌕👻📖🕯️🧟‍♂️🚪🔪😱🩸 One night 🌕, I entered an old house 🏚️ with just a candle 🕯️ and found a strange book 📖. As I opened it, a ghost 👻 appeared and slammed the door 🚪 shut. Blood 🩸 marked the walls. Suddenly, a zombie 🧟‍♂️ with a knife 🔪 crawled toward me. I screamed 😱 but couldn’t escape. The book had a spell—I read it aloud, and everyth...

 He opened the box and found a stack of old, yellowed letters tied together with a faded red ribbon. The handwriting on the envelopes was elegant, the ink slightly smudged with age. At the very top sat a photograph — black and white, edges curled — of a young couple standing under a tree, smiling as if they shared a secret with the world. His hands trembled as he picked up the first letter. It was addressed to his grandfather, dated 1943. The words inside spoke of love, of war, and of a promise to return. Letter by letter, he uncovered a story long forgotten — a wartime romance between his grandfather and a woman whose name had never been mentioned in family stories. The final letter ended with the line, He sat back, heart pounding, as a new chapter began — one rooted in the quiet echoes of a love that had waited, hidden, all these years.

  1. Describe a rainy day you enjoyed One evening, as dark clouds gathered, rain started to pour softly. I sat by the window, sipping hot tea, listening to the rhythmic patter of raindrops on the roof. The fresh, earthy smell of wet soil filled the air. Cool breeze carried the sweet scent of blooming flowers. The trees swayed gently, their leaves glistening with water. The world outside looked like a watercolor painting — blurred, calm, and peaceful. The cozy warmth inside and the music of the rain made it a perfect, relaxing day. 2. Describe your classroom during an exam The classroom was silent except for the soft rustling of papers and the ticking clock. Students sat with serious faces, pens moving quickly across the sheets. The smell of freshly printed exam papers filled the air. A gentle breeze came in through the half-open windows, bringing in the scent of nearby flowers. The invigilator’s footsteps echoed as they walked around. My heartbeat was loud in my ears as I focuse...

"The Last Bus" It was 10:30 PM when I realized I had missed the last bus home. The station was empty... or so I thought. Cold wind whistled through the deserted platforms. The flickering overhead light made shadows dance. I sighed and sat on the bench, pulling my jacket tighter. Then I heard it—a faint cough. Turning around, I spotted an old man in a faded coat sitting on the far bench, nearly hidden in the gloom. His eyes met mine, and he smiled faintly. I asked, trying to sound casual. He nodded. “Always do.” That answer felt odd. His voice was calm, almost too calm. “I’ve been waiting a long time.” The wind picked up, and a strange silence followed. I glanced at my phone—no signal. When I looked back, the man was gone. Then, headlights pierced the darkness. A bus slowly rolled in—old, silent, and oddly clean. Its sign read only one word: "Home."   I hesitated but stepped on. The driver gave no greeting. As the doors shut, I turned to look back. The station was e...

  The dog ran. The big brown dog ran quickly through the park because he saw a squirrel climbing a tall oak tree. The cat slept. The fluffy black cat slept peacefully on the warm windowsill as the sun shone through the glass. The boy ate. The hungry little boy ate a giant slice of chocolate cake at the birthday party after playing all afternoon. The bird sang. The tiny bluebird sang a cheerful tune from the highest branch of the tree early in the morning. The girl danced. The joyful girl danced gracefully across the stage during the school performance in front of a cheering crowd. The baby cried. The tired baby cried loudly in his crib because he had lost his favorite stuffed toy. The car stopped. The red sports car stopped suddenly at the traffic light when a group of ducks crossed the road. The sun rose. The golden sun rose slowly over the mountains, casting a warm glow on the quiet valley below. The kids laughed. The group of kids laughed loudly on the playground as they played ...

My favorite toy is a stuffed blue dinosaur named Roary. I got him when I was three years old, and even though he’s a little worn out, I still take him everywhere. Roary isn’t just a toy—he’s my best friend. He has one button eye, a small patch on his tail, and he smells a bit like cinnamon because he once fell into a cookie box. At night, I tuck him under my arm and whisper stories to him before falling asleep. When I’m scared of thunderstorms, Roary guards me. When I’m sick, he keeps me company. One time, I even made a cape for him out of an old sock and pretended he was Super Roary, flying around and saving my other toys from a pretend lava flood. He’s traveled with me on road trips and even went to the beach (though I had to shake sand out of his ears). People sometimes ask why I still carry him around.
