Is internet doing more harm than good ?

Internet is a great service that almost every house has. In modern time, internet is almost a "must" for everyone, as it is very convenient, quick and easy to use. Just a click could bring a whole truck of information raining down on your computer screen, which is scary sometimes. It is a must for people who are working as it helps them in presentations, charting, and even finding client. Many child plays internet games to relax and destress themselves after a whole tired day in school, sometimes even adult does that too. However, it can also lead people astray. Many people had the intention of doing bad things or crimes, just because they had read an article or played some violent games, which inspired them to do it too. In my opinion, internet is doing much good than bad, as most of its uses are for the benefit of many, not harming them.

Firstly, many businessmen needed computers for most of their projects. They need the PowerPoint to present their ideas, share it and promote it. Without it, it would be very difficult for them to explain the points one by one. It is made easier by having Microsoft PowerPoint. Imagine that a businessman that does not have an internet and computer. He might have difficulties trying to tell others what his point was, as sometimes, words is clearer than speech.

Of course, many children like us, do play games on the computer, and sometimes very violent and gore games, such as shooting games and etc. If you think that playing that will lead to us being violent, then you are very wrong. It is the mentality of the person that decides if he is to be affect by the games or not. Some people can play violent games, but they are reserved and do not act violent in any ways, as they are just playing it for leisure and de-stress, or maybe venting their anger. Of course, if your mind has an image of the violent acts, and it pictures out in reality, you would be in trouble.

I do not agree that those points will harm us. Naturally for everyone, they think that if you play violent games, you are violent. If you are a boy and plays "girlish" games, then you are sissy. It is the mind-set of the people to view how it is going to affect us. If you think that way, of course you will be affect that way. If you think otherwise, like it will not affect, it is just for leisure, then you will be fine. Therefore, in my opinion, internet is actually doing more good than harm. Harm affects you only if you let it affect.

An interesting recount on the December Holidays

During the December holidays, I went to Genting Highlands for a holiday. It's very interesting there this year because something special happened. It was early morning on that day. My family and I had our breakfast at home very early. We took a taxi to the terminal to take a bus there, except for my elder brother, as the taxi only can have 4 passengers. On our way there, we chatted with the taxi driver, and he had much information for us. After a long ride, we have finally reached the terminal, where we take bus to Malaysia.I took travel sickness medicine because I hate taking buses and get giddy when I take them. It was a pleasant trip there, everything to me was smooth, and I did not have any headache. At the “rest” stop, I had my breakfast with my parents and siblings. I had fish ball noodles and my parents ate chicken rice. Although it was just a “rest” stop, the food there tasted just like things we can find in Singapore too. After buying some snacks, we boarded the bus. After a long trip, we reached there finally. It was around three in the noon. My parents went to check in, while my siblings and I went to have our lunch. We had our lunch and went to the hotel. At night, we had our dinner, and my brother and I went to the arcade there. The interesting part to me is that when we played there, we found many friends, which we never did before. In the past, we just mind our own business and play our own games. Now, people associate with us and even made friends with us. After that, we had our dinner together. On the second day, we went out again. We had much fun there and gathered on the last day, we bid farewell to each other, and our family went home by a coach. It was the same thing as the day we went to Genting, just that it was a trip back instead. It was a pleasant and fun trip for me; at least it was definitely better than previous years.
