Racism

After the day of discussion, I felt very proud of talking with so many great persons around the world about racism. No matter where the people come from, the thesis of anti-racism, or the expectations of non-racism are the same in different languages and cultures. All of us realized there are many barriers to get the goal, but we still participated in the program even with unclear speaking. India has a problem of language, it is the biggest problem of racism; Norway has religious racism in their societies but youth group are working on the reduction  of religious discrimination. After we had this meeting, I knew about the racism is not just exist in one place. It's a global issue that need everyone on the earth to help and understand.

Progress

Argument, discussion and debate are referring to competition. All of them do their works by conflict, which often the oral style. People are easily influenced by emotion, and this is the reason that an rational argument turns into a brutal conflict. As we pay more attention to the outcome, the more sensitive we are. Victory is not the only thing from a debate. Debate is a stage of presentation that others can hear you. Most of us don't have this opportunity to ask people to listen, but debate can even make others listen to you carefully. It's a great chance to have a debate with others, this is how people get improvement from human civilization.

100 people in the world

I watched the portrait of 100 people today. What would it looks like? The population of the earth has already over 7 billions, and the number is still increasing day by day. The 100 people foundation is a program which in order to help us understand the people and create a community profile. I found the 100 people also makes research about the distribution of resources, like electricity, water and education. They create a summary by using data from this program, and they present a scene of population of the world.

Help

I began to think about help people since I was very young, and I actually did from such a small age. I can feel that I was borned to help, it's innate from my heart. Every time I helped people without my awareness of help. I didn't noticed the process means kindness or charity, I just want to do so. I can remember the previous holiday in the US, the Halloween, when my teacher brought us to a pumpkin festival. It was funny when I saw many kinds and sizes of pumpkins, and the operators showed us many interesting things. But soon I realized that they were helping people of native american who grew these big pumpkins. I determined to help in my mind at that time, and I picked a small but golden pumpkin at last. It cost 2 dollars but I paid 20 for it, and the operator asked me whether I was sure about this. I nodded without hesitations. In my mind of charity, I always think that kindness is not what you have done, but you start to thinking about help others.

Organization

I always organize my stuff well because of the obsessive-compulsive disorder, which was called OCD as a short form in medical science. For example, I insist to keep spoons and folks in order even just a few tools in kitchen and I can't bear the unwashed plates in the pool. Besides the kitchen, I also like to keep my bedroom clean as possible as I can. But in general space like a public room, the symptoms of OCD are less effective to me. I won't ask for place something in order although I feel uncomfortable. I think I am a person with OCD, but not so serious. Moreover, in some people's words, slight OCD is a good thing to most of people.

What I'm feeling when I heard free writing right now

Saturday is important to me cause I have to take an exam which from GMAC. Even though I kept working on it everyday, I feel stressful and can't focus on subjects of ELS, especially R&W. In our R&W class, the first essay is about argument, but I don't have clearly logical thinking that I really needed. My mind has totally messed up during these days. I think I have too much stress to the test and I need to calm down and release myself.

The right to carry weapons

Weapons are dangerous to people, but if you don't have a gun, you could be get into danger more often than itself in U.S. Having guns become very common in America. That means everybody has a gun in average. So you might be careful to argue with somebody cause it could cost your life, which the most precious for a human being. Guns are easy to swipe out one's life and it makes people wants power. The fewer guns exist the more safe place we live in. But it is difficult to take off one's power by themselves without reluctant.
