19、When I created my social media account, I was unaware that I would be so engaged in it. Over the years, I have become1 to it — surfing through different apps from the moment I woke up until I went to bed, and2 the same pattern the next day.
The consequence is imaginable — my sleep quality3 as I stayed up late, scrolling (滚屏) through endless feeds. Worse still, my classmates were engaging in meaningful activities and making progress while I was merely using up my previous advantages and became4. This contrast5 my self-criticism. So in January, I decided it was time for a6.
I7 my social media exposure by consciously redirecting my focus to other fulfilling activities. Rather than mindlessly scrolling through my phone, I8 reading and physical workout. I also packed the phone away before bedtime, allowing my mind for a9 night's sleep.
But staying on track is10, especially in an age when a smartphone is a necessity. Sometimes, I just couldn't resist the constant stream of notifications, which led me to scroll before bedtime once again.11, I must admit that change is a process and failure is one of the steps to make12.
Now my mind and body are already thanking me. My spirits have13 risen. Besides, I've lost 12 pounds and worked with higher14. I know I still have a long way to go, but I feel proud as I am becoming a better me with a sense of15 in life.

20、The International Day of Happiness
You might think the International Day of Happiness on March 20 is a day to practise positive thinking or to give thanks for the things in your life that make you happy. The UN thinks happiness will only be for everyone when the people of the world are equal.
Usually on this day (and also on 23 September), the sun shines directly above the Earth's equator, which is called an equinox (昼夜平分点). On this very day, day and night last for almost equal time all over the Earth. Thousands of people are expected to participate sharing happiness with others each year.
How did the idea start? The idea goes back to 1972, when the King of Bhutan, Jigme Singye Wangchuck, said that we should measure a country's progress by its happiness and not just how much it produces. Bhutan developed a system to measure happiness based on things like people's psychological health, their general health, how they spent their time, where they lived, their education and their environment. People in Bhutan answered about 300 questions, and the results were compared every year to measure progress.
The man behind the International Day of Happiness. In 2011, a UN adviser called Jayme Illien suggested the idea of an international day to increase happiness. His plan was accepted by Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon in 2012. Jayme was born in India, and he became an orphan when he was a child. She travelled the world to help orphans and she took Jayme with her. He saw children like him, but they were not as lucky as him because they were often escaping wars or they were very poor. He wanted to do something about it, so he worked in the field of children's rights.
