It was a beautiful sunny day. After finishing my daily routine on the treadmill, I noticed how empty the gym was, with only the front desk attendant around. So, I took advantage of the situation and snuck into the yoga room to practice singing some high notes. Who would bother, right? The walls are soundproof, so it was the perfect spot. When I got home, Mom scolded me. She had received complaints from the gym manager about my singing. I guess that later on, there must have been other members who wanted to use the yoga room, but couldn't because I was occupying it. I feel so sorry and regretful. Maybe I should apologize to the gym manager tomorrow.

This is my first post of the year. Hope all is well with you and your family. I came across an article online about the eyesight of children all over the world and would like to share it here. Research shows eyesight of children in the world is deteriorating. According to BBC in U.K, the research team in China revealed the rate of near-sighted eyes of children across the world reached 36 percent. This symptom has appeared since the pandemic due to Covid-19. The team pointed out the cause is that the time kids spent indoor and watched displays has increased due to the protocol by the government. They also suspects that it's highly likely that girls have a higher rate of near-sighted eyes than boys because they have less time to play outside. On top of that, they warned the half of children in the world might have near-sighted eyes until 2050. Their research shows 83% of children in Japan, 73% of one in Korea suffers from near-sighted eyes. On the other hand, in the case of U.K and U.S, it is only 15%. The reason why children in East South Asia region has high rate of near-sighted eyes is because education is one of the causes. In Singapore and Hong Kong, education starts when children turn 2 and it is said this takes a toll on them. On the other hand, children in Africa have 7 times lower near-sighted eyes because their education starts when they turn over 6. I have near-sighted eyes too. I'm as blind as a bat with out contact lenses and glasses when I do something. So, these are must-have item for me. So, I really hope kids nowadays try to protect themselves from near-sighted eyes as soon as possible by decreasing time to watch displays and use smartphones.

No , we could do a lot of other things in real life instead of wasting time on virtual world. I used to and was keen on talking with social friends online, that’s only for fun , we could discuss many topics but over time, we get to know each other then we both lost the interest to chat . eventually we talked less and less till became a stranger again. To some extent that’s a waste of time. No meaning at all
