Internship and/or extracurricular activity opportunities in Mongolia

How can I participate in impactful extracurricular activities in Mongolia. Like I can't find any good ones, I'm also in 11th grade, so I can't really get a part-time job, or maybe some internships at banks. I might work as a barista during summer, but I don't know if that will be impactful for my college applications. My ideal major is either finance or economics. Any websites down below would be appreciated.

Sort of self advertising but still educational nonetheless

We did a research on Secret history of Mongols for a school project, check it out if you're interested

Are we back to being the tallest East Asians in 2024? The early years of capitalism fucked us so hard we went from being as tall as Koreans to the same height as the Japanese, but we’re growing back. A study in 2020 showed our 17 year olds are 172.5cm. We were 173.6cm in 2010 to 170.5cm in 2015

Was confrontation wrong?

A guy friend of my girlfriend keeps trying to hook my gf with one of his "handsome" friends, even though she clearly says she loves me. When I heard about this, I kinda snapped and texted him on ig saying stop that. He replied "wanna meet up bro?" I then realized that it was a fast decision and I may have made things awkward for my gf, as he's a popular guy in her group of friends.

American fascinated with other cultures, looking to learn more about Mongolia.

Good afternoon my side, good evening/very early morning your side!

I've recently begun doing some studies into Mongolia; however, my attempts at finding books discussing the history and culture of Mongolia are all pretty much completely focused upon Genghis Khan and I'm trying to expand my understanding of Mongolia beyond this, since no people or region can be completely defined by one thing.

I've already started picking up cookbooks and the like, and have everything I need to make Airag among a few other Mongolian dishes such as Khorkhog, thanks my close proximity to a horse racing and breeding community, who is generous enough to sell/donate the milk and let me use undeveloped land. But I'd love to know how these techniques were developed, which so far my searches haven't yielded.

Likewise, attempting to learn the language has been...difficult to say the least.

Does anyone have any good suggestions for books/sources/authors to look into to learn more about the region. I'm even happy to take sources/authors discussing Mongolia from outside perspectives, just anything to help me learn.

How to learn Russian 🇷🇺

I really want to learn Russian, no matter how hard or timebconsuming it is. My goal is to at least have simple conversations with Russian speakers.

I don’t know where or how to start. I’m already using Duolingo, but it doesn’t teach me much of the essential in right way. I learned a bit of Russian in middle school for a year or two, but now forgotten almost everything. If you know Russian or have learned it on your own, share your experience, how did you learn it, and what worked best for you. Also, if you know any useful resources like websites, apps, or PDF books, please let me know. If there’s anything specifically for Mongolian speakers, that would be even better!

[Update] Is it over for me if I think I have ADHD in Mongolia? (it isn't)

I posted some time ago asking how to manage ADHD in Mongolia. Many commenters told me to just take a grip. (though many commenters also supported me so thank you)
As it turns out, I do have ADHD. I went to the private psychiatrist with complaints about insomnia, without disclosing I suspect it as ADHD, to avoid any bias. After about 4 sessions I got informed that I do have ADHD. I got prescribed medicine that is helping me to fall asleep and I'm feeling quite a lot better.
I still struggle a lot, but I got taught many tips and coping mechanisms (who would have thought "get yourself together" is not an actual advice but just to make you feel better about yourself because you specifically "got yourself together").
My psychiatrist is planning to prescribe me stimulants but because they have a lot of side effects it might not fit me, but that's okay with me, since with just better sleep and new strategies I already do better.
I have accepted myself and I try to not use ADHD as an excuse. I'm never late to work (because i'm always 1 hour earlier, otherwise i will be late), I am more efficient because I bought a timer, I am on 2 months brushing teeth streak (longest in my life btw) with endless alarms and reminders, and overall I'm doing better. Thanks to all people that believed me and no thanks to clueless people who think "everybody has a little ADHD" and so ADHD doesn't exist.

What is the best tsuivan noodle brand?

Ok let's list down some best tsuivan noodle brands. This one in the picture is the worst in my opinion, is it because of the noodle dough becoming too compressed after kneading or something I don't know but it takes forever too get cooked fully. And when you're waiting for the top to get cooked the bottom becomes too soft and soggy not to mention you gotta let it sit for hours if you've just taken it out of fridge. Tsuivan cooking advices are also appreciated!
