Topics #8: Senses

If I had to lose one of my five senses, I would prefer to lose hearing.   With no hearing I can accept because hearing is less important in five senses. Losing touching you would not feel pain, losing sight you cannot see any obstacles in your front, losing smelling you cannot distinguish different odors, and losing tasting you cannot taste diverse flavors; thus, I choose hearing for some reasons unimportant.

                First advantage to lose hearing is I do not need to learn English here.  At lease, I do not need to learn listening.

                Second, losing hearing will keep you in quiet environment. I can do anything without noise disturbing. For example, when my teacher came into class and turned on the alarm, the teacher from next classroom came out two times for asking to turn off the alarm.

                Third, I would not endure people’s complaint and blame if I did something wrong.  Meanwhile, because I lost hearing, people will forgive me.

                In short, losing hearing has more benefit than losing other senses.

Topic #7: If Internet Un-invented

Everyone in my class uses internet everyday for chatting and almost all the students of CSUF have to check their syllabus and assignments online.  Moreover, most international students use the internet to keep in touch with their families and they look for references for their essay which their teacher gave.

      Can you imagine if the internet was not invented? Would our lives be different? First, we have to use cell phone to contact friends, but we seem to pay more money for the bill. Second, students have to write assignments on their papers. Third, we have to go to library to search for references. The last one is obvious that you have to pay more for contacting your families.

       Personally I hate the internet.  If I forget to check my assignment or confirm the assignment I submit, then I will lose my points with the late assignment. Furthermore, I do not need to write blogger online.  Next is that I prefer to write letter to my family and friends. I will be happy when I received a letter from my family.  Maybe you disagree, but when you use internet to talk to your family, you do feel surprise and happy of expectation. 

       Indeed, I rather internet was not invented although the internet makes our life easier than before.
