I have had a lot of mobile phones (Nokia, Samsung, I-mobile) before I bought iphone5s. I bought iphone5s in Bangkok about two years ago when I was a master degree student. It cost me about 25,000 baht, it was expensive. There were two factors that influenced me to decide about buying a new phone. Firstly, I believe that apple products always have a higher quality than other brands. I do not want to buy a new phone every month. I thing, If i buy iphone5s, I do not have to buy a new one at least three years. Secondly, iphone5s applications are useful. I can do whatever i want on my phone. For example sending e-mail, calling my family, listening music and watching movie. I have used iphone5s for two years and it has never had any problems.

My iPhone
First off all, I have got iPhone5 since last
years. When I bought it, I aware of usefulness and practicality the most. This
is because I wanted to use as long as possible. Secondly, I would look at price
that no more than $500 because I had to save my money to buy other things. The last
feature is that the colour because I prefer using black colour than others. It
is comfortable for looking after and cleaning.
MY PHONE
I checked a phone’s pixel figure at first when
I bought my current mobile phone because I like taking pictures and I prefer to
high picture quality. I also considered about size because I often enjoy
watching videos on Internet, but I have poor eyesight, so big screen is better
for me. The brand and color are not so important for me. If I don’t like my
phone’s color, I will buy a phone cover which is my favorite color or design. I
think useful features are important factor, however it is okay I can use only
e-mail, phone call, SNS and camera.
My Love For The iPhone
First of all, my favorite brand is Apple which produced the iPhone series. What I like about this brand is that they create the phone into many sizes and colors, making this phone suitable for both males and females. Another thing which makes me always purchase from Apple is there are different amounts of gigabytes available, such as 16gb, 32gb, 64gb and 128gb, so you can pick which one is suitable for your needs. The Apple brand creates Laptops, iPads and computers as well as the smartphones, which they have a special service that you can save something, such as photos in one of your Apple devices and it will then be saved to all of your other Apple products. The iPhone can last you for years if you look after it well. This is why my phone will always be the Apple iPhone!
MOBILE PHONE
The usage of Mobile phone has been spread worldwide. In the current highly competitive cellphone market, a lot of manufacturer of smartphone for the sake of attracting customers to buy their products, producing it more intelligently and friendly.
As for me, there are some elements that affect me which brands I should buy. Then, operating system takes the top position in term of deciding what kinds of phone I should buy. such as, I will never buy smartphone for Android. Next is appearance of phone. Also, I like discussing with my friends about the phones we recently use. So no mater who after using a smartphone , we usually eager to recommend it to each other and exchange felling of using our own cellphone.

Six Words Story
Can't eat, can't sleep, because (of) you.
I think you guys might understand this six words(actually one word over). It is sort of one-side love. Japanese girls comics often describe about girls who love a guy like that. So sweet, isn't it?
My Mobile Phone
The phone I have got first time was not
iPhone. Since the iPhones became popular, however, I desperately wanted to get
one because it looked cool such as innovatory appearance and I thought
touching the display is the easiest way to write an email, a message and so on.
Therefore I bought an iPhone4S even though I used the first phone at the time. As
I use the iphone4S, I realized that it is more useful than the others. In this
way, I have tendency to choose iPhone series. Now I am using an iPhone5C and I have
been using it for one and a half year. It is time to think about a new phone. Of
cause, I will select one of the iPhone series. So what influence me to buy
mobile phone is appearance and function.
Forrest Gump
Forrest Gump is an American guy who just has below-average intelligence. He was born in a small town of Alabama. When he was a primary school student, in order to escape insult from other students in school, he listened to a girl’s advice to run when he suffered from them again. Interestingly, just because of running, he was granted special admission to University. When he graduated from his University, the government recruited some new soldiers also involved Forrest Gump at the same time. He made two friends in the army. One of them was called Bones, while another one was Doyle who was a military officer.
However, he could not forget Jenny Curran even if he fighting in the war. He wants to know that what happened to her. After the war ended, Forrest Gump received president Johnson’s interview as the hero. After that,he came back to his hometown where he was born. Meanwhile, he met Jenny again. Then he became a enterpriser whom did shrimping business. Fortunately,Forrest and Jenny had a child.
What I like best thing about this Fiction is the Forrest Gump’s spiritual touch. Forrest Gump experiences each historical period in which the world changes constantly. Whenever, wherever, regardless of other people in the same place, he did not want to change in his own style. He is simple and is good.

MY CHOICE
When it comes to choosing which device to buy, I always
have some particular factors to help me decide which one is the best for me. The
most important is that it has useful practical features that I need for everyday
use. The size of it comes next, I think it’s helpful to have a pocket size
phone, and of course the price must be affordable. The idea that most of my
friends or family have the same or that is fashionable has never been a factor
for me because in the end it should suite my lifestyle and choice.

My phone
I bought my phone more than two years ago. It's unavoidable that advertisement is one of the main reasons for I bought the phone. In addition, most of my friends had been using this brand's phone before I bought it, so I got a lot of good feedback of the phone from my friends. Therefore, I bought it and I have been using it until now, so it's a good choice.

Animal Testing
By Stephanie
Watson
Animal testing takes place in three
main areas biomedical research, product safety, and especially in the animal
laboratories around the world. It has been happening in the past until now.
This book is about scientists, researchers,
students, medical students, and doctors.
There are two both sides in regard to
using animal testing. Firstly, the main argument for animal testing is that
while research find that the animals can feel pain, many scientists use pain-relieving
medicine during experiments so that the animals feel as little as possible.
Secondly, responsible scientists care a great deal about the animals they test
by using as few animals as possible and testing as humanely as possible. Another
important is that scientists use animals to test medications and chemicals that
are very important in medical a profession.
On the other hand, the argument
against animal testing is that many of drugs that were developed through animal
testing should test without the use of animals. Moreover, animals have the same
right as humans to live and not suffer. Thirdly, animals are not exactly the
same as humans and may not respond in the same ways of treatments.
Personally, I agree with both of sides,
I think animals testing is necessary because it saves people’s lives. And also
animals make good models for disease and treatments because they are the most
similar to people when compare with other animals. However, I think that no
matter how careful researchers are, animals can still feel pain and stress from
being kept in cages and subjected to tests. In addition, scientists can use
artificial human tissues and computer models instead of using animals.

Slumdog Millionaire
Slumdog Millionaire tells
the story of Ram Mohammad Thomas and this story is set in modern India. The
story begins in an interrogation room. Ram Mohammad Thomas answers all the
questions correctly on a TV quiz show and wins a billion rupees, but Ram was
suspected that he cheated in answers. The story takes us through the major
events of Ram’s life.
One day, Ram and
his friend Salim were taken on a day trip by a charity organization and they
met a fortune-teller. The fortune-teller gave Ram an old one rupee coin. It was
a lucky coin. Several months later, a big man came to the home, and adopted
them. Actually, the man was a gangster, and the reason why he adopted then was
to use them as a beggar to make some money, so they escaped from him. Ram
managed to escape from the man and kept moving, and he lost his money, so he
had to seek a job. He visits the Taj Mahal and he starts the job which is a
tour guide. He met a girl at the Taj Mahal, and then they fell in love. However,
she has to get married to a rich man to help her family. Ram tried to stop
their marriage but in order to live happily with her, he had to prepare large
amount of money for her family. Although it was very challenging situation, he
decided to appear on TV quiz show.
Although Ram is
an uneducated street boy, I still think he is clever, daring and knows how to
live comfortable in the slum. However, he is a bit dangerous because he killed a
few men. This story describes his danger effectively and also his such a
dangerous characteristic is showing the society of India. There are numerous
poor orphans, and they are always facing several difficult situations such as
poverty, poor surroundings, and bad people who scheme to make money with
orphans. Children learn singing and they lose their legs, arms and eyeballs
when they work as beggars. This is shocking news but employment of children is
real thing which happens in India.
The thing I like is how Ram thinks about
Japanese. He met Japanese tourists at the Taj Mahal. The tourists asked him to
guide them, and they paid him 50 rupees with only five minutes work. Probably,
he thinks Japanese would pay expensively for him. They dupe foreign tourists,
particularly Japanese.
Vikas Swarup was
born in Allahabad in India. His first book, which was made into the film Slumdog Millionaire, took him only two
months to write, but has now been published in forty-two different languages
and made into a very successful film. He got the idea for Slumdog Millionaire
after watching the popular TV show, Who
Wants To Be A Millionaire? This programme is known as Quiz Millionaire in Japan. He thought that it would be interesting
if an uneducated ‘street boy’ who would definitely be accused of cheating won
the top prize.
As I said above
this novel became a movie. Dev Patel is a boy who grown up in the real slums of
Mumbai and he played the main character. It is a 2008 British film, and it was
nominated for ten Academy Awards. There are some difference between the movie
and the novel. The main character’s name is Jamal Malik, and he has an older
brother, Salim. The story was also changed slightly. If you are interested in Slumdog Millionaire, I recommend you
read the book and watch the movie. You will enjoy.
Book review
Spider Man
This story occured in New York in 2000s. The main actor is named Peter Parker who is just an ordinary guy.He has problems with money and girls, but he is Spider-man. He swings through the streets of New York and saves people from danger.Sometimes New Yorkers call him Spidey. He's falling love with MJ who is the other main actress, and she works in theater and her face is famous in New York. MJ had a difficult home life. Now she has left home and she's a strong woman. She has faced all her problems, except her relationship with Peter.
The story starts slowly, with details of how this ordinary guy faces his problems.And then,his best friend Harry thinks Spider man killed his father. His father died in a flight with Spider man at the time,but Harry doesn't know the truth and now he wants to kill Spider man. I really get into this story during Spider man fight with the people who wanted to kill he, and he shots webbing onto every building and protects people. Although Peter takes disaster for MJ,he falls in love with MJ, and Peter appeared in front of MJ when she faced disaster.
This is a novel, full of passion and a exciting plot.The best thing I like is that Peter falls in love with MJ. It is a romantic story.
Book review: Leaving Microsoft to Change the world
This book was
written about John Wood who was a busy, successful man, working in an important,
well-paid job for Microsoft in Australia. One day he went to Nepal for his
vacation and he visited a school in small village. He knew a shocking truth
there. About 70% of Nepalis can’t read because they don’t get enough education
and the government doesn’t have enough money. The school had a beautiful
library but there were few books for 450 students. This was really hit him. Nobody
has done wrong. Poverty had caused the problem. This experience changed his
life. After that he quit his big job and started working for children who
weren’t able to get a good education. At first, his business, which was named ‘Room
to Read’, was run by him and his father. They gathered books and donations as
much as they could and sent them to Nepal. Finally, thanks to their effort, ‘Room
to Read’ scored a great success.
This story is a
real story. The main character, John Wood, is passionate about giving books to
children and building schools in poor countries. His decision to quit his job
in Microsoft must have been hard but he didn’t five up his dream. Not only
this, he also broke up with his girlfriend and his best partner to do what he
wanted. If I were him, I wouldn’t have chosen his option because working in a
large company such as a Microsoft isn’t easy. Everybody wants to get such a
job. Therefore I am absolutely proud of him. Moreover this story gives us
encouragement to do what we want from the bottom of our hearts. If you read the
book, you will try to realize your dream.

Food for Thought
Food for Thought
The name of the book is Food for Thought. It is a fiction book.
The book was written by Pauline Francis and published by Penguin Readers in
2008. The name of the book makes me consider about food. But Food for Thought
does not revolve around food, it is an idiom. It means something to ponder on
or issues to be considered. Food for thought in this book is “whether GM crop
trials are safe or not?”. GM crop is a plant that has a gene and has been
modified by government and its scientists. The plant that scientists use for
trial in this story is maize.
There are five main characters in this story. Their names are
Joe, Anna, Kate, Dave and Jenny. Dave and Jenny are organic farm owners. Their
farm is in Cornwall and near the GM crop farm. The form of English that the
writer used to describe Dave and Jenny’s farm is brilliant. It was easy to
imagine, and I made these images in my mind obviously. Joe is Dave and Jenny ‘s
nephew. Joe was working on their farm during his holiday. Joe is a positive person. The next person’s name is
Anna. She is a visitor of Dave and Jenny's farm. She is from Stockholm and a
student like Joe, however Anna is a beautiful girl but stubborn at the same
time. She trashed the GM crops. She is such a GM crop protester. She strongly
believes that the GM scientists are criminals and GM crops will change natural
plants. The last main character, is Kate. Kate is a girl who’s her father owns
the GM maize farm. Her parents decided to grow GM crops because they trust the
government. They totally believe that GM crops are a good idea. Joe and Kate seem
hostile but they are not, they are friends. Joe gets on well with Kate because
both of them like to surf. Even if Joe is Dave and Jenny’s nephew, his opinions
about GM crops are not strong, and he is not taking sides. He is neutral, and believes
that GM crops will help poor countries. Farmers will get better quality crops,
and cheaper crops because they will not need a lot of pesticides.
Anna plans to trash the GM maize crop on Kate’s farm with
other protesters. This plan is a secret, however it’s a coincidence that Joe
knows her secret and Joe promises with Anna that he will keep it a secret. Joe
tries to stop her because it is a criminal intension and dangerous but she does
not listen. She does not change her mind. There is nothing Joe can do, but to keep
the promise, it is only way he can go. Eventually, Anna and other protesters
trash the GM maize crop plantation. GM crop is gone. Kate gets angry with Joe
because he did not let her know about Anna’s plan. And Kate says, everybody has
the right to protest but nobody has the right to destroy other people’s crops.
They do not have the right to break the law. Joe tries to say sorry to Kate.
Finally, Kate forgives Joe and they become good friends again.
I like this book because it is an interesting story. It makes
me want to know more information about GM crops. I asked myself“. Have I ever
eaten GM crops?” “Have I ever wondered where food comes from?”. This book helps
me realize more about food that I eat everyday. In my opinion, GM crops are not
bad but we have to know how to use GM crops safely. The plot of this story is
interesting, exciting and enjoyable. Food for thought is an excellent book that
I could not put down when I started reading it. It was a compelling read.
THE COLOMBIAN CONNECTION
Hi, my name is Rio. I read a book named The Colombian
Connection. The story happens in two places New York and Colombia. The four
main characters are a reporter called kay Duncan, NCD agents Frank and Andy
Lopez, and a drug dealer known as Mr. Charlie.
The story is about a reporter who was in New York. She found
in the newspaper a headline saying “Presidents War Against Drugs”. When she
read it a lot of questions came to her mind, which intrigued her to write her own
story about it. While she was looking for answers to her questions, a person
who helped her to get the answers was killed. So she got more excited and
determined to find the killers and most of all find out what Andy Lopez was
involved in, and what got him killed.
The book really captured my attention. It’s the type of book
that kept me wondering what was going to happen next. I think the book also
covers a serious topic because drug dealing is a big problem in the USA so this
informs the readers about it in a short fiction novel.
The Lucky One
The Lucky One is a romantic fiction novel by the author Nicholas
Sparks It was published in the United States of America in 2008 by Grand
Central Publishing. The novel was made as a film in 2012
The story is about an USA marine Logan Thibault who returned
from Iraq safely after he lost two of his friends in the war, he considered
himself a lucky man. In the war he found a photograph of a beautiful young
woman that made him believe it’s a lucky charm, but he thought someone might
have dropped it during the war. After he came back home he decided to find her
and thank her for keeping him safe. He searched for her until he found her, but
when he saw her he couldn’t tell her the truth. So he started to work in the
dog training kennel.
Beth is a single mother, who’s living with her grandmother
“Nana” and her son “Ben”. She works as a primary school teacher and helping her
grandmother to take care of a dog training kennel. Beth’s ex-husband, Keith
Clayton has always disliked the idea that Beth can get involved in a romantic
relationship. He has been threatening all the men that she has been dating.
Logan and Beth fall in love. Logan also captured Nana’s and Ben’s hearts
because of his braveness and kindness. He
was struggling with keeping his secret from them.
I enjoyed reading this book, and I found it inspiring exiting and
powerful. I’m really into reading anything by Nicholas Sparks, I have read two
of his novels “The Notebook” and “Safe Haven” and I enjoyed them both. I love
how he described his characters in a beautifully detailed way that helps me imagine
what they look like and what their personalities look like. The actions have
been written with passionate heartfelt words. Even though the novel is written
in chapters which sometimes confuse me, it was written clearly in easy language.
I can define it as a page-turner. What I really liked about it was the main
character ‘Logan’ and how he believed that a photograph saved his life. Beth is
a strong brave character because she is an independent single mother that went
through a lot in her life and still manage to handle it.
