FROM THE MOVIE: THE SOCIAL NETWORK

We were watching "The Social Network" movie last week. It was a part of our subject assignment which was about world literature. Our instructor explained to us how social networking affect the literature all over the world. At first I wonder why we need to watch it and how is it related to literatures. But after the movie, I came to realize the significance of the movie. Its been making the world more smaller. People could just sit down and get in touch with family, relatives, friends, colleagues, classmates... etc. It gave us an idea that literatures could be passed through social networking easily. Time will come that there will be online publishing which writing could be written online instead of writing it on papers and be published through printing press. Have you ever think about books will be vanished? Internet became a largest resources for anything. This is one of the great things the technology brought us. Despite of many negatives, we still thought that it is not technology that make it bad or negative, its the people who overused it. It is always a matter of choice, we can't blame technology.

The movie revealed the great challenges when facebook in on the process of improving. Mostly, problems were related to money. Money is able to do something - its nature. Again, everyone can make decisions and everyone must face the consequences on the decisions that they made. Someone said that "your choices of today will affect your future" or if I am going to re-phrase it, "my choices will make me somebody in the future". I am just trying to be positive in all aspect. I started making a reaction here... lol. So, that movie was very interesting. Facebook existed and it made people communicate easily, whether at work or during vacations. It put no limit for communication.

WHAT, WHERE AND WHEN

I am having trouble making decisions about what am I going to do in the next few months. I am saying this because my current job is on the process of quitting. There are many reasons such as low income, not able to compete to other computer related establishments... etc. I am dependent on my current job. All the expenses since I started school was taken from the job. I have mentioned on my other post that I am currently doing school and work at the same time. I don't think that I could be able to stay with my current job while the fact is there is no assurance that this company would for last at least two years. I think, after December the establishment would stop its operation and I don't have any job anymore. If that happens, I possibly quit schooling too. I don't want that to happen. At least I could finish school until March, I wish that I could. I started submitting my CV to different establishments for any IT related jobs. The problem is most companies that I visited are not hiring. They just told me to wait for a couple of months if ever they need another employee. It's not worth waiting at all, but I still have to while I still have more days left on my current job. Yes, I started worrying but not too much. I know that there is a job somewhere for me. I believe that if I seek, I can find. That's an old quote but powerful. Sometimes I felt very frustrated but I used to think positively. "Dream big dreams" that's what someone told me. I think that helped me a lot. Focus on some great things than on small ones. Psychologically, that will help individual to motivate to do something.

So, I have no idea what kind job I may get into. I prefer IT related jobs but if there's nothing, then, I need to sacrifice for my sake. For now, I don't where of course and when would that be. Everything is unclear. I am covered with fogs that I could never see what is going to happen in the future. Well, this is life and it should be that way. Great people in the world reached their achievements through great obstacles in life. If really want to succeed, then, I'll face these obstacles of this life.

Thoughts about Covid-19

It has been a decade already since my last post and I miss posting some thoughts so much. A lot of things had happened since 2011 until I gr...
