The social network & Orchestra concert



I have been spending my whole evening watching the social network movie. It is a movie which portrays the story how Facebook was created and things that happen along the way. Overall, it was quite interesting though there are terms which are hard to be comprehended. This movie also tells me how addictive is FB to everyone and how fast this culture of FB-ing spreads. This fact is undeniably true because it's like almost everyone in the world own FB accounts. Children who are supposed to play with barbie doll or any thing respective to that, is no longer has that interest. They prefer FB more which i am not sure if they really know the denotative meaning of FB. It is not a shock if a four year little child approaches you and ask; 'ko ada fesbuuk ka??'

However, sometimes i feel that FB-ing is tedious. It is like every time I open my FB, I to do the same thing; viewing my profile repetitively, stalking others, commenting pictures and so on. Huhu. But i still need my FB, because that is the only medium for me to figuratively see my friends' activities. after all, it's a small unbounded world that connects everyone without limit!

After the movie finished, my two other friends and I went to TAZA to see the 'An evening with Sons classic' concert. Actually, I don't have the heart to come, but because I was 'forced' by ezra who was one of the orchestra-ians, so I came there. But it was a great presentation after all. The musics and singers' voice were so impressive and admirable! It makes my heart wishes to have an orchestra band for my wedding later. Okay, it is still long way to go.

Baby Dumping Issue

Baby dumping is one of the worrying problems around the world today. The cases of baby dumping are increasing day by day, month by month and so on. Hence, it brings lots of worries to our society. The main cause of baby dumping is unwanted pregnancy. There are several factors that lead to unwanted pregnancy such as:

a) Social pressure or personal desire to have sex.
b) Absence of education about how to avoid getting pregnant.
c) Teens are reluctant to ask their partners to use a form of birth control or STD prevention.
d) Partners are drunk, on drugs, or otherwise not able to plan.
e) Many girls are also unwilling to say no to their partners, no matter how they personally feel about sex.
