Tina's Typical Tuesdays

Home Field Advantage Happy Tuesday reader! I apologize for not being able to write last week's post as I was quite occupied with school-related business, but I am so glad that Tina's Typical Tuesdays is back on track now and I can continue with my weekly posts! Here's this week's Quote of the Week: "You do not find the happy life. You make it." - Camilla Eyring Kimball Have you ever heard of Home Field Advantage? If not, HFA is the term coined to describe the benefit that teams, mainly sports teams, have when they play a game on their home field. This advantage could be for many reasons, some of which may be that they feel more confident because, to them, their home field represents winning and success, or perhaps they don't have to suffer from jet lag or tiredness due to traveling. But how does this translate to positivity during this COVID-19 pandemic? Well, HFA could also be described as the benefit we , teachers, students, parents, and more, have whils...

Hello my dear readers! This message is a brief notice of absence as I was not able to find time to create a new post this past week. This is due to the start of online school, as I have been quite busy preparing a new schedule and taking care of many matters related to my beginning 7th grade online. I hope you all can understand that this past week has been particularly tumultuous for me, and that, as much as I would have loved to have written you all a new post to read, I could not. I was, however, able to prepare a Quote of The Week so that you, my readers, can have a little something to get you through the rest of the week! Here it is: "Nothing is impossible. The word itself says 'I'm possible!'" - Audrey Hepburn Again, thank you all so much for understanding, and I cannot wait to write for you again next Tuesday!  - Tina P.

                Positive Thinking How Could it Potentially Help Your Business?   Hello reader! Welcome back to Tina's Typical Tuesdays! I hope you've enjoyed my last blog post, "Get to Know the Writer: About Me", but today, I will finally be starting my legitimate blog posts! As promised, here is the weekly "Quote of the Week": "Don’t say you don’t have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Bill Gates, Michelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo  da  Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein." - Unknown W hen I think about positive thinking, I normally tend to believe that it will have just an overall better effect on my life because I feel happier and more stress-free. However, has it ever occurred to you that perhaps positive thinking could possibly even improve your business? This is because of multiple reasons, one of them being that positive thinking has been proven to aid ...

     Hello reader! This is not really a blog post, as this is just for you to get to know me before you begin to read some of my real blog posts! Firstly, my name is Tina CP and I'm an eleven year old from California. However, I was born in Boston, Massachusetts and moved to CA when I was very young. I love to play the violin and am a student at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music (Pre-College Programme). I also speak Spanish, French, and Vietnamese. A few hobbies of mine include running, shopping, reading, designing clothes, and being a huge Harry Potter fanatic! Another thing that I love to do is traveling and learning about new places. My favorite place that I have ever traveled to is New York City because I really like how the city always feels so alive and exciting!       But the one thing I love more than anything else are my family and friends. I have one older brother, Theodore, or Theo. He and I are nearly exact opposites, but we still som...
