The internet
The world is getting more modern, so new technologies have changed how communication is conducted between people. Viewed from different angles, I think technologies and the internet, in particular, have influenced on communication and relationships in several ways, and there are both positive and negative consequences.
The internet is easy for anyone to contact people who live in other areas at any time. For example, we are on business trip in a foreign country, we still can update and exchange information of our parents or our relatives who live in hometown. A lot of people use social networks such as Facebook, twitter, Skype and email to find old friends, make new friends. Because someone finds it comfortable to share secrets with virtual friends and this contributes to spending leisure time together without any efforts or spending money. The internet gives companies, groups and shops good opportunities to improve the quality of work through email marketing campaign and online conferences.
However, there is no doubt that the internet has had negative impacts on human interactions. Taking advantage of the interaction through the internet means people are decreasing their oral language development. This could make people limit their soft skills like communication ability or body language. Finally, we are immersed in a virtual relationship which is a poor substitute for real friendship and isolated in the real world. In addition, our physical and mental health are affected to a greater or less degree if we sit down at the screen too much time. It leads to obesity and other issues such as eye strain and muscle problems.

Watching films and the difference between film and movie
I have to admit that I'm a big fan of films, and I often spent hours watching films, I used to watch over and over again the favourite movies a dozen times but never felt boring. Any blockbuster movies were released, I tried to buy tickets and watched as soon as possible. Generally, I like all kinds of films, but my favourite genres are cartoon, comedy, drama and romance. Some of my favourite films are home alone, Tom and Jerry, the notebook, like crazy, Titanic and love story in Harvard. I guess you know all of them because of their popularity. Although you can call me filmaholic, I have no idea of the difference between films and movies. Honestly, I often prefer a film to a movie because of my habit and all things I am fond of watching are films. So could you tell me detail about this ?
These days, I'm watching a Korean film named doctors which has main actors are Kim Rae Won and Park Shin Hye. They're both famous actors in Asia by not only their beauty but also their ability. The film tells about a girl who was a tough bully in school with a prickly personality. She had a big scar from her childhood and always closed her heart from other people. Nevertheless, she changed from a gangster to a passionate doctor after meeting her teacher Hong Ji Hong. I think it's a meaningful film, it makes me feel stronger and more confident in my life.
In my opinion, watching is a good hobby because it helps me widen my knowledge and also forget all tired of studying. However, it wastes me a lot of time, makes my eyestrain, and sometimes films are so attractive that I don't remember to do anything. I realized that when I read an article about the disadvantages of watching too much by chance. I tried to stop watching films and I found it very difficult to give it up. Early days, I couldn't stand watching, I had to watch some situation comedies which are called sitcom. Additional, I spent time cooking, swimming, reading or hanging out with friends. I gradually forgot the habit of watching films every day. Now, I just watch films when I've complicated all things, and also watching is a way to enhance my listening skills.
Thanks for reading !

Gap year
Hello, everyone, I'm a new member, so this is the first time I write an entry here. Honestly, I've been learning English for a long time, but my English is still bad. Today, I decided to focus on learning languages and English in particular, to prepare for a long trip after graduating. That's why I want to write some entries and hope you can correct them for me.
I'm a senior now, it means I'm going to finish my studies in university next year. I want to spend about a year to travel and discover countries before finding a job. If I remember right, people call it a gap year. My major is auditing, and it's quite boring. I have to work with calculations and numbers and also be sedentary. Although my mother doesn't want me to spend a year for useless things, it won't be wasted. She thinks it cannot bring any benefits, but I am sure that I'll gain a lot of experiences.
In addition to improving English, I've started learn French and Korean for a month. When you learn a language, you don't only learn how to speak or write it, you also do about culture. It makes me realize learning a new language is so interesting and brings me joys.
Thanks for reading !
