Dear blog,
There is nothing to share in this empty think tanker of mine. Last night intense research had deduced me to a frail piece of leaf. I wanted to add more things to the list of applications in the essay, but time had warned me against it - school hours drawing closer.
Apart from one thing that lingered in my mind after an article I have read sometime ago, (before I was told by the librarian that the library is closed in the early mornings even for senior pupils. It shattered my hopes of reading in tranquil while everyone is idle in their playgrounds). I'll explain keep it brief though I find it a lengthy controversial fun debate.
Internet in the new generation has become increasingly important to users across the globe, either for business purposes, education, games and such. No question, a valuable efficient mode of communication coupled with an abundance of information. People will consult their laptops anytime at the point of day regularly, chatting away long hours in MSN or engrossing oneself to a NASA fact in their parent website. Can't say it didn't change the way we live in this world. Indeed, things have become more virtual. But who is to stop Technology from growing? I would have to chuckle quietly in the corner, because there is no other way to stop Singularity from happening [I promise, this topic will surface in a future blog post]. To do so, as said from a wise man, 'Is have a totalitarianism control system in the world.' And who's to say we'll obey whatever they impose on us? [to further discussion, simply look for the book entitled '1984', which rock band Muse based their Resistance album from]
I might have deviate myself away from the focus. Alright, what I'm saying is, have you ever question what has become of the impact of using the internet to the way we approach things? Our mental structure, of getting things done? A guy in the article had pointed out that in our primitive days, we are preferred to study different areas or topics all once in order to learn as much as we can - so that we could have better survival. We focus different things at one single time. The age has developed since to make way for civilised humans, things are now jotted down to books concentrating on one specific prospect. We focus on one thing at a time, investing time to dive in to its rich context to understand it to depth.
Ever since the option of several tabs of different websites were readily made available in the world of internet, we are slightly encouraged to operate how we did in the monkey-days [according to evolution, but I don't necessarily believe in that]. We broaden our awareness of many things, but we don't know what it is actually about to its acquired depth. Vital pieces of information that could inspire or help you may have been chucked away just like that.
all I'm saying, is that it is right to question these influences i nevery little thing that you do. I'm not saying to revolt against internet usage, for that will be slightly barbaric and insane. Keep up to date, but be aware.
....
....I also had great news that waited for me in the email. I've been invited to round 2 of Shell Interview! Off to KL for a full day challenge! Should I be nervous? I want to go to the UK to further my education! Must prepare for any Michael-Bay type explosions ready for my face. Oh, what a childish expression, tehe.
