I want to learn...

I have learned many things this class. Hardware, HTML, Power Point, Word, Excel and Windows Especially, HTML was really attractive and enjoyable. I never imaged that I can make web page on my own. Also, Power Point was interesting for me. The skill will help my college life and future job. I could enjoy all of the classes because of the contents of the class and Mr. Poza’s funny character!! However, I could not able to attend iTune class because of my schedule. I really miss it. So I wish regular class for iTune was available. In addition to this, I want to learn about JAVA and FLASH. Because there are some funny web pages which were constructed by them. I guess the systems are confusing but they have the worth to be learned.

My life with Computers

Anything about computers...
This time, I would like to write about my life with computers.
In first term, I did not use my computer every day. But now, my computer is indispensable thing for my daily life. One of the reasons is that I have to do more research by using computer. Another is that, for this computer class, almost every thing such as textbook is on the website, so it is necessary to use computers. In addition to this, computer is playing an important role in communicating with my friends who live distant place. Somehow, if I got e-mail from them on my cell phone, I usually would be too late to send reply. However, if I received e-mail on my computer, I would write and send reply while rest time as soon as possible. Therefore, computers are necessary for my life.

Future of Computers (Ver.2)

In the future, what will happen to computers?

I have written about it before, so this time, I would write computer’s future about 20 years later.

20 years later, I am going to be 49 years old that is almost same age with my parents. There would be the computer which is combination with cell phone. Its electricity is supplied by a solar battery and weight is light enough to carry.

At home, people can watch TV programs that they want to see whenever they want to by using the Internet, also more online shopping is available.

Almost every kinds of information will be managed by computers.

As the cost, there will be a lot of computer viruses and hackers, so we have to be more careful about the way to use the Internet and privacy information.

I am not sure whether I will be able to use these computers effectively (^_^;)

The Effects Which the Ccomputer Made


In my life, there were some things which made me to decide to study abroad. For the first time when I met my own computer was about 5 years ago, and I never thought it will greatly affect on my life. That was just only the beginning. From then on, I have learned many things through the Internet; variety of the point of the view, different things which is happening at the same time, many problems all over the world. Then, I realized that I do not want to stay in one society, and I want to travel as many societies as I can. It made me to decode to study abroad, but it is just one of the reasons. I wish I can grant my dream.

Other Blogs

I saw many blogs which has been written by the classmates of CPS100-3. Many of them use beautiful pictures, and I’m especially interested in Ayaka’s blog which shows beautiful and cute pictures. In addition, I think that many of us want a iPod mini. Actually, I am one of the people who want it because it is pretty small but it can work very well but I have to pay for the teaching material about 42,000 yen so I cannot afford to buy it. Although I cannot explain exactly, I realized that the design of the blog is similar to the writer’s character. I guess that to design and write the blog is similar to draw a picture which is said to describe the psychological situation of the drawer.

Computers' future

I have a question about the future of computers that

how much computers will

fill our life.
If the technology progressed constantly with this speed, they could

take the place of human’s jobs.
For example,

high quality of artificial

intelligence
is invented; it works as a teacher, doctor, labor force and so on. In the situation, more and more

people lose their jobs,
so they cannot manage to earn money to live. As a result, the gap between wealthy people and poor people becomes much larger, the number of crime would increase, and then

the breakdown of law and order
occurs. In addition, one of the convenient computer’s functions, which enable people to communicate through the Internet, leads to weak connection with the community. However, some action would be taken not to make such disordered community, and the people who make the decision will be our generation. Therefore

we should be sensible
to decide weather we use the now technology or not.

Computer Gift


If I had much money to buy anything what I want, I would buy a computer for my mother.
In fact, at my house, there is a computer which has complex settings to protect my secrets. However, it caused a problem that my mother cannot use the computer efficiently because of the settings, so she frequently complains about it to me. Then I try to solve the problem, I explain the solution on the phone to her but usually she is not able to understand. To solve the situation and consider the future, the computer will become more indispensable for our life and useful device to communicate with my family when I go abroad next year.
Therefore I want my mother to be able to use computer without serious problem and buy a computer which do not require a lot of knowledge about it.

My History with Computers

When I was third grade of junior high school student, I experienced to use computer for the first time. At that time, I did not have my own computer and knew nothing about it. So, the beginning of the class, I was not interested in using the computer and frustrated because almost every lesson was difficult for me to understand and master. However, one day, I found pleasure which was using clip art. Using the function, I made many pictures which are funny. After the experience, I fell in love with the computer. Several months later, I got my own computer and I spend time as much as I could in front of it. At the same time, it caused health problem that I lost my sight, therefore, I have to be careful not to spend too much time using the computer, but, actually, it is difficult for me to do because I love to use the computer!!
