Get out of chat messenger!



People these day are worse and worse at communication. They are lying to much on technology to talk to each other, to keep in touch, to express their feeling and their thought by the invention which is called chat messenger. Therefore, if I could uninvent one invention in the world so that it would no longer exist, it would definitely be chat messenger.

First, the idea of spending all day online on chat messenger is so terrible. It not only wastes our time but also ruins our relationship with people in real life. Can you stand the person who always hold the phone going online while hanging out with you? Can you accept someone talk with you through chat messenger whilst that person can meet you and talk face to face? Those behaviours are so impolite. If I am in those situation, I will be very sad and won't help it.

Next, when I chat on chat messenger, I may have friends who send unemotional messages, used lots of weird languages, and replied in super short way. Except I chat with the professional writer, the poet, or someone who is expert at writing, then the messages I receive are totally lack of emotion. I can't know the partners's feeling and easily misunderstand their ideas if the conversation just bases on text, even if they use emoticon. Also, they uses lots of words wrote in strange way which look like secret codes in “Da Vinci Code” or somewhat language that make me feel like I am talking with aliens. Furthermore, their replies are always very short. For instance, instead of typing “Ok”, they just type “K”. “Congratulation! You just save one millionth second of your life!” – that type of reply really makes me frustrated. Another example, I spend much time to type message which I think carefully and a lot for them. What I receive then? “K”, “Yep”, “ Nope” or something like that. Having a conversation with my knee is much more interesting than having a conversation on chat messenger with them.

Last but not least, chatting online makes people worse and worse at communication. People who depend on chat messenger are usually scared of having conversation in real life. Because of lacking communication skill due to getting used to talking on chat messenger and being afraid of meeting others, they hide themselves behind the screen and continue talking to others online. That cycle repeats again and again, and they never know how to have an appropriate conversation.

In conclusion, the invention that I would uninvent if I could do that is chat messenger. It wastes time, ruins relationship, conveys nothing, and  makes people bad at communication. In the end, I think chat messenger will be the hot topic in future since it is ruining people communication skill which is very important to daily life.

My Dream Job

          If I could choose my dream job, I would like to be a scientist. When I was a child, I was told and read lots of stories about many great scientists such as Charles Darwin, Isaac Newton, Louis Pasteur, Albert Einstein, and I admired them a lot. Being inspired by those great scientists, I was always thinking of being like one of them someday with the hope that I could do something great, which would help human beings and be well-known forever after. Furthermore, I dream to be a scientist because I found that an image of it like mine in some ways: thinking crazily, desiring freedom, and seeking for the truth.
          Dream job is still a dream job, and it won't be my job in reality. I do love science, but I found it boring somehow. Also, I'm not sure if scientist is a stable career for me or not, since I need money for bigger aims. Therefore, I won't study to be a scientist though I still have not determined my future job yet.

          My name is Huy and I come from Vietnam. Sai Gon is my hometown and I've been there since I was a child. I grew up in my grandfather's garden,  which nurtured my imagination, my senses and my soul. I have wonderful childhood memories with my friends there. It has been two weeks since I said goodbye to my family, my friends as well as my country. I really miss them.
          My family has seven members: My father, mother, two younger brothers, me, Tina ( she is my dog, from Japan but I don't really know what type is she) and her baby. My father and mother have their own business and my brothers are still in school. Furthermore, I have a best friend. We have been friends for more than thirteen years. I and he have a lot of mutual interests  and we have done many crazy things together. I really love to hang out with him.
          There are lots of things I like to do. I love to read book, solve a rubiks cube, play football, workout, and especially train Aikido. I have trained Aikido for more  than four years, but now I don't have chance to train here. I hope I can visit Japan someday so that I can get an oppotunity to train Aikido with Endo shihan - the person I've been dreaming to see for a long time. Moreovers, I like Parkour and I've just trained it recently. I'm looking for somewhere to train and finding somebody to train together here ( for both Aikido and Parkour). I hope I can find that one soon!
