North Korean children 'forced to water drought-stricken fields at 5am' before shortened school day

As North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un steps up the rate of his hi-tech missile tests, schoolchildren in the hermit kingdom are reportedly being forced to cut class to water crops that are dying in a severe drought.

According to a report on Radio Free Asia’s Korean service, high school and college students in the north of the country have been mandated since mid-May to help water the dry fields from 5am to 10am every day.

Last week the Rodong Sinmun, the North’s biggest newspaper and regime mouthpiece, reported that the country had been struck by an “abysmal” drought.

It claimed that the authorities were involved in “prevention battles” and had dispatched 1,300 sprinkers and about 2,100 portable water pumps.

Pictures published by NK News showed at least three major reservoirs in South Hwanghae Province and next to Pyongyang airport in the capital had completely dried up.

Study VS. Blog

Today I bid on not particularly fashion-related photos - but the pictures (which are also taken here and now) illustrating another great job in my everyday life. My studio. I often mention my study here on the blog and the reason is probably that the study in no way linked to the blog. I read dentistry at the University of Copenhagen ie Dentist training.

It's really two different worlds I stand up to every day. In the morning, the hair flung up into a bun, and I run mostly around in my white coat Panum - Later reports the great events, and kittelen being substituted with rivet-jackets, camel coats .. etc. Sometimes there is overlap - and then I have to prioritize - which depends a lot of subjects and of course how much the event appeals to me. I often get questions like: "How do you make it work?", "Are you dropped out?" And "WTF Lida, how do you have time to work and Zumba and blog? Do you sleep at all? "Yes I sleep and I get 7 hours of sleep every night - but I will admit that I right now do not read as much as I should.

I am the type who 'take it as it comes' without lazy it too much - Unlike high school where I was totally striving and probably stressful to deal with at times haha ​​.... It is very important for me to reach all the other good things in life next to my study, so I can remember back in the study as the Fed and not only recalled reading room and dry lectures. Some people prefer to have a few things in their lives - I'm the type who MUST deal with 100 things at once - otherwise bored I am! Anyway what I wanted with this post was enough just to give you an insight into my everyday life. Now I'll throw biochemistry book down - Time to get blogger hat - Sandra is coming, OOTD be shot and later Hunkemöller event. Adios!

Study When You are A Mom

Several people have asked me to share my thoughts about studying when you are mother - and I do so with pleasure!
It is fantastic! It is freedom and flexibility, and I enjoy it to the full.

It was assumed that I am longer in my studio, but that's how I started, when Augusta was 9 months old, and I had the first day of school shortly after she had first day of kindergarten, so I came a little later "started" when I in over four years had a beautiful position as a teaching assistant at a nursery.

I read the teacher training college and although this has been criticized academy more, then everyone who is on this training well well bite the bullet and recognize that words are not sitting at the school from 8-16 every day. However, it should prove a lot of study activity, but if you are reading recognition theories at the school, one Tuesday. 11, or Saturday. 22 Teachers are the total indifferent.

The managing his time obviously requires some self-discipline, but it also provides room for that one can organize his time to such a degree that one can often deliver her baby fairly late and pick up fairly early.
My boyfriend had maternity when Augusta was run into the nursery and it is so only now here, eight months after her start, we must have a full-time position (part-time space is a planned out space max. 30 hours).

Augusta's "table" has until now been very privileged compared to that we deliver between 8 and 9 and downloads before 14:30. The few who have the ability to manage their time like that, and I have great understanding for the parents who have no other choice than to deliver early and pick up late, but in our family we're just lucky that we can do it ancestry headed, and prioritize it enough greatly.

I realize that reading the burden on the teacher training college is not the same as more academic courses, such as law, etc., But in every place can decide its commitment to the study, which means that I choose to read all the texts (some are only after the corresponding tuition) while I, however, not as participants in the social part of being a student. It's a choice I have made that I interact and have fun with my fellow students during lessons, but my spare time is something I primarily use my family and myself.

It is debatable whether it is a rejection of something, but I'm 25 years old and I have appointed over the horns of me, and I have become very conscious about what I benefit most from using my time. So my education is something I take for academic reasons, and not social.

The downside is so that my primary obligation is not for school, but for my daughter. As of this week, I should have presented and participated in the study with a group of other people, but I have to stay home because Augusta is sick. It is obviously very regrettable because other partly depends on my work, but how does that now even together when one is mother.
You can not always run solo runs on an education, but if I could opt out of group work, so it was definitely the opportunity I had chosen, so I should not go to feel guilty when I let other than myself behind, so to say.

On weekdays and weekends I make sure to prioritize and plan, so I read the evening (but which will also be time to talk with her boyfriend, fun and relaxation), the days off (study days) which is used to get a handle on the sexy aspects, such as vacuuming, laundry, etc., while weekends are devoted to gathering and coziness.

When she is taken to be nothing, besides dinner, arranged as we prefer to buy in and make all other practical HutteliHut when she is not there.
