First Entry

Hi to all the people out there. This is my first entry. I'm not a blogger but what the heck, just try it. I'm quite tired at the moment. Just finishing up my assignment about mobile phone & all the impact and culture behind it. Sound easy but when you writing an academic piece u will burn part of your brain. Dah malas nak check. Janji siap! Nak sahur. Kena prepare sendiri.... sedih sorang2 kat tempat orang. Anyway this a paragraph of my essay. Partly is a part of my experience. What do u think?

Texting on mobile phone become a huge success in a more reserved culture. In both Bangkok and Tokyo, teenage boys and girls value texting as a means to communicate without having to voice their feeling and thoughts (Plant, Sadie 2002, p.56). It is a simple method and can avoid any embarrassment compare too face to face interaction. Nevertheless texting also can lead to misunderstanding when the message or point that you want to convey may be interpreted wrongly by the recipient. Non-verbal communication plays an important role in conveying our message. The lack of intonations of your voice and body movement can easily make a simple text message into a huge misunderstanding. Now you even can send video or picture through MMS service. This service while helping us if we use it in a good way, it also can lead to multiple interpretations by other people. In Sydney on 11 December 2005 we can see how SMS can lead to into a race riot at Cronulla Beach. It is rioting for a tech-savvy generation. Mobile phones are providing the calls to arm for the tribe in the race war dividing Sydney. More than 5000 people turn up at Cronulla on Sunday and many were drawn to the rally, which turn into a mob, by text messages on their mobile (Hayes, Kearney, 2005).
