What I have researched so far

Now, I have informations that can be included in my research paper such as SPP, NAFTA and AMERO. I would like to talk about these topics to show what North American Union is. I have just made survey and gave it to a couple of Canadian people, so during this week end, I will keep it up and move to interview. Actually, I have no idea to do interview; however, I will try to talk with my Canadian friend who knows about this kind of topic a lot. In addition, I will ask him about Canadian's idea of America basically. The reason why I have chosen him is at least he is interested in this topic; also, he usually go to USA for his school to get teaching licence. Therefore, he might be able to help me.

This week's post

Since I started to resarch about my topic, I' ve read some articles from Internet. First, I got information from Wikipedia and read it. Reading WIkipedia is expedient for students who resarch something because Wikipedia's informations are nutral and basic. It is read by a lot of people, so their article must not have a bias. However, their articles are sometimes too general to catch. In my case, my topic is not famous, and it is a kind of conspiracy; thus, the topic is difficult to be mentioned and compounded on Wikipedia. To tell the truth, I'm little bit confused about my topic. What I need to do is to concider the way to gather useful and valuable souces. In fact, I've found a helpful article on Wikipedia, yet It's not actually about my topic. I realized that I need to progress this kind of way. I mean I have to find articles what could link to my topic indirectly. Thus, I am going to resarch about what "NAFTA" and "SPP" are.

Summary

Steve Jobs, who is a CEO of apple and Pixer, had speech and talked three stories: his background, love and death. According to his speech, he has had a unique life. He gave impressionistic messages to students in the speech. "Stay hungry. Stay foolish" He said these words strongly. These words are from his experiences of course. He did'nt graduate a college; also, he was poor. In addition, he mentioned that trusting future, life and desteny. As he said, he has never wasted his life as he has overcome a lot of hard time because he has believed his desteney.


my reaction
It was interesting for me because I didn't know Pixer and Apple's CEO is the same person.

My reaction of "Little Miss Sunshine"

To tell the truth, I was touched by the movie so much. Needless to say, people have some problems or troubles, so that can make their family's relationship complicated such as the movie. We are living in the troublesome world. Our societies always have ridiculous issues. Even though we want to be released from it, We can't be independent from it because we have to depend on family, friends and so on; thus, ironically, no one can live without society. That situation is the same as the movie. As I said, our societies have many problems, and it affects to our lives. From that points, we sometimes have to be in trouble, so we have a lot of stress, and we need to release it. How to release it is up to person, but we usually need help from some one who is close to us. For example, it is family. In general, family is good environment to relax, so we can be honest; also, we can be rude in there, so that can connect we tend to forget how family is important for us. That movie showed that we should realize we should respect and tresure our families again although it is not so easy. Actually, I don't have a good relationship with my parents. I don't know my relative's personal problem; In addition, I don't know I should know about them a lot or not, but anyway, I need a foundation that I and my family can be open and can have strong bond of relationship, so first, I would like to do something with my family and achieve something such as the movie. By the way, I love the movie.
