The UN for example has done a worldwide survey on happiness, wanting to find out how happy the nations of the planet are. They researched things like social equality and public safety, they looked at the judicial system and press freedom, and a lot of other things. The happiest nation on the planet: Denmark. Just in case you want to live in a really happy place, try Copenhagen.

Lots of scientific research has been done about this. One thing has always been clear: There is a very high correlation between employee happiness and business success. And for a very long time, this correlation has been interpreted in a way that success makes people happy.

Again, if we take a look at how scientists look at this, the message is very clear: Successful leadership requires a high level of compassion, of resonance between leadership and employees, and of mindfulness.

All the research that has been done about leadership leads to the same result. If you ask employees to describe a great leader in their work environment they always say the same thing. That the person was exciting, inspiring, empowering, that it was fun being around them. They say that these leaders were valued their employees, that they were able to help people find a meaning in what they were doing, and what their role was within the bigger picture.

And one more thing: You can actually train to be happy. Martin Seligman proposes a really easy and effective exercise that is guaranteed to increase your level of happiness. At the end of every day, you simply sit down with a pen and a piece of paper and write down three things that went well that day. Anything, big or small, private or job related. If you do this every day, you condition yourself to be a happier person.

As you can see, after eight steps, we return to the number 16, without ever having passed through 1. This means that no matter how many more steps you try, this process will just repeat itself over and over. So 16 cannot be a happy number, and we would therefore call it unhappy.

To be lucky, a number must survive a specific example of something called a sieving process. This is essentially where you take a sequence of numbers, and then remove some of them according to a set of rules.

The sieving process continues like this for an infinite number of steps. As you can see, the next surviving number would be 9, and so you would delete every 9th number of the new sequence, and then the 13th and then the 15th and so forth. The lucky numbers are defined as the ones which do not get deleted. The first 20 lucky numbers are:

Let us first discuss what we mean by divisors. A divisor for an integer is a whole number which exactly divides said integer into another whole number. So for example, 3 is a divisor of 6 because 3 divides 6 into 3 lots of 2. Or 17 is a divisor of 68, because 17 divides 68 into 17 lots of 4. Another way of thinking about it is that a divisor of a certain integer is a number which has that integer as a multiple.

As for odd perfect numbers, there have not been any found so far. There are a set of rules which any odd perfect number is proven to have to obey if such a number existed, but so far this existence has not been proven or disproven.

Sunlight: Lucky bamboo requires moderate or indirect sunlight. Direct sunlight will scorch the leaves, so avoid placing your plant in front of a bright window. Scorched leaves look like how they sound: The edges of the leaves will have a brown tinge to them almost like they were burned by fire. If your leaves look a little scorched, move your bamboo to an area with less light.

Algae can form in the water, so try to clean out the container and change the water regularly (about once a week). Tap water is okay for the bamboo plant to drink, as long as chlorine levels are low. To be safe, leave tap water out overnight so the chlorine can evaporate before you use it to water your lucky bamboo.

Toxicity: Lucky bamboo is toxic for cats and dogs, so make sure to keep it out of reach. If consumed by your fur babies it can cause incoordination, weakness, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, drooling and dilated pupils. Lucky bamboo is not toxic to humans, however.

Propagation: To propagate a lucky bamboo plant, first identify a healthy parent stalk (should have more than two bamboo segments) with an offshoot. Clip the offshoot from where it connects to the parent plant stalk and remove its bottom layer of leaves to create a new independent stalk. Place the new stalk in a small container of water and nurture the plant as you would a larger one. Repot as needed.

Some of the most alluring parts of lucky bamboo are the cool designs that you can create by twisting different stalks together. The key to training lucky bamboo is using light. By manipulating the light source you can create a fun spiral or other design.

Bamboo grown in water can live about one to two years. For a longer lifespan transfer your bamboo to soil where it can live for several years. It may shed leaves, but as long as you care for it well, it will keep replenishing and growing new leaves.

I can't tell whether this is exciting or terrifying, but I have finished my finals and am now officially a junior! Slogging through two fifteen-page papers, a final project, and an exam were all worth it, because now I get to hang out on campus for Commencement Week--also known as Senior Week if you're a senior. It's the week between the end of finals and graduation, and they offer lots of on-campus jobs and free food and housing for anyone who wants to spend extra time with friends and make some good money. While lots of people work cleaning the dorms or serving food in the cafeteria, I'm lucky enough to keep my job at the newspaper, working on the big commencement edition that we'll print just in time for the thousands of alums and parents flocking to campus. It's a big, beautiful issue with all the most exciting stories from the year reprinted as well as some breaking news. So I'm sitting down here in the Oberlin Review office editing article after article and trying to make sure no typos sneak through.

I really recommend staying for Commencement at least once before you actually commence, because it's so nice to be on campus with no exams to worry about, and it makes for a smoother transition into summer. I stayed last year too to work on the paper, and I couldn't imagine going straight from finals to a summer job.

Another great thing about the end of this year has been the invitations to no less than FOUR professor-hosted parties, all with delicious food and stimulating conversation. On one day I even had to choose between the Latin American Studies party and the Environmental Studies party (it was a close call, but I picked Latin American Studies because I figured it would have better food). One I technically invited myself to as my friend's date, but I was welcomed nonetheless. I've been lucky to develop great relationships with a lot of my professors, especially the two advisors for my two majors, and I know this is common at Oberlin. Most professors are really accessible and love to chat or give advice. I've had fun going out to dinner with students and professors, inviting one professor as a guest to a co-op meal (which he loved) and when I'm 21 I look forward to going to Professor Beers--a program every Thursday afternoon where of-age students and their professors can chat over free beer and snacks at the student dance club.

I'm really excited for this weekend, as I will be done with the newspaper and there will be a million great activities leading up to graduation, including jazz, a capella, and classical concerts, a volunteer day at a local farm, shmoozing with successful alums, and a famous journalist--Newsweek International editor Fareed Zakaria--giving the commencement speech. They also have a beautiful tradition called Illumination where they hang lanterns in the trees of Tappan Square and have an outdoor orchestra concert in the bandstand.

But what excites me the most is that the environmentalists on campus have worked to make this year's commencement completely carbon free! You can read about all the sustainability measures here. Just another reason to be proud of my school...

The pieces all came together to make that happen. A generous woman gave me her piano on the condition that he play it in beautiful places. And my friend was happy to haul it around for me on the back of his truck. I soon gained the ability to move it by myself. I chose Kingston Beach, a favorite walk for locals, as the venue for my first open-air concert, in December 2019. The choice was probably inspired by the film The Piano.

I hold an outdoor concert two or three times a month. Every time, I choose a spot with a beautiful view. When I start playing, the people around react differently. Some are surprised, others treat me like a part of the scenery. The audiences outside have more freedom than the audiences I play for in the bar-restaurant. People stop and listen, giggle at my funny gestures and the absurdity of hauling a piano into such unusual locations, and wander off as freely as they arrive. I feel more liberated and less pressured. There may only be 5 or 6 people listening at a time, or it could be 70. Once, as many as 300 people stopped to listen to a one-hour concert I performed. Adding to that the people who see me on social media, and my audience has grown to the thousands.

Since the advent of the Covid-19 pandemic, growing numbers of people have come to watch my performances online. They need moments to enjoy themselves, to forget the hardships in their lives. More and more people are yearning for things to smile about. I move my piano to places that I hope are unexpected. I want to lighten people up by knocking them off guard.
