="Nanotechnology in an Advancing Society"=#5

                Imagine a world living with technology a size of an atom – they’re tiny, really tiny – cannot be seen by the naked eye.
We live in a world of advancing technology. As I have read in an article – the world of nanotechnology has been popularized. It is world of controlling the shape and size of matter at the nanoscale level, which is measuring in nanometers – one billionth of a meter, or approximately 100,000 nanometers in diameter of a human hair.  This means – we have technologies the size on an atom – not to be exaggerated but this is true.
Curiously, I’ve made researches regarding on the topic nanotechnology in an advancing society. Uldrich (2006) said that nanotechnology is the future generation – the transformational technology of the century. It came to the society gradually developing from passive nanostructure with materials design to perform one task, to active nanostructure with materials with multitasking ability, up to the system of nanosystems that consist of thousands of interacting components.
As nanotechnology spreaded, more developments have come about and because of these developments, nanotechnology has helped the society in prolonging and improving the qualities of life.
How? Well, first is that nanotechnology has helped in the economic industry. It has helped in the energy production like developing the performance of batteries which can be good as new after sitting on the shelf for decades and which can be recharged significantly faster than conventional batteries. It also helped in the production of lighter and stronger materials for the transportation and infrastructures and it has helped in the production of smaller and more powerful weapons and surveillance devices.
Nanotechnology has also helped in the medical field. It has helped in designing pharmaceutical that helps cure people faster without side-effects. It has also helped in tissue regeneration, bone repair, immunity, and cure for diseases. Also, it has helped in assisting on surgeries and repair hard-to-operate areas in the body.
Also, nanotechnology has greatly helped in cleansing the environment. It has helped in eliminating chemical toxins in the environment with nanorobots that has the ability to eat these toxins. It has also helped in recycling all garbage with nanomaterials that can make objects as recyclable as structures built and rebuilt out of blocks, thus reducing our resource consumption.
Nanotechnology has certainly made products and devices that are very useful to the society. It’s amazing how technology has evolved and developed for the use in the society. This powerful technology will radically extend the capabilities of practically every area of human endeavor by exploring the ultimate limits of fabrication. Nanotechnology is the potential answer to all of our problems.

Having seen and heard the music video entitle Fireworks by Katy Perry, it really does inspires people who are afraid of expressing their true self as what the blogger neslie had felt.
Each and everyone of us is different. And a lot of people are afraid to show their inner self. They are afraid to show who they really are. And they are afraid of what might other people think of their true self. But you know something, true self is what make each person unique – it’s what makes them shine above all else.
True self is what makes every person their own. It is where your deepest thoughts live. It is what you ultimately think of yourself, how you treat yourself and what you fear others might see inside you. It is your most native and real personality.
Each and everyone of us must have the confidence to show who they really are, for it will be the reason for them to have the life that they want to have. If they are just going to hide through the shadows then, they won’t have the chance to live through what they really desire.
Like me also, I am a shy type of person but mostly I am not afraid to show who I really am – that’s me. I embrace the person who I’ve become and I am happy just the way I am.

-"EARTH SONG"-#3


“the EARTH is our home – our LIFE.”
In the beginning, before man walked the Earth – the world was at peace – it was heaven. At the time came man, as it evolved – began the unraveling truth.
The untouched beauty of mother Earth gradually vanished as man started abusing the generosity of nature. It's so sad really.
As the music video of Michael Jackson entitled “Earth Song” has shown – the horrifying truth of what has become of mother Earth. It has shown a great deal about how our only home has become something that we are afraid of happening. It has shown how man has destroyed everything, and yet few have noticed and mostly nobody cared.
Mother Earth is crying – can't everyone feel it?
Disasters and calamities are now occurring; it's because of what man have done to the world. And now, we too, are also suffering because of what we've done. We, not only destroyed mother Earth but also our own lives. 
We have felt the wrath of mother Earth – what can we do? Is it too late?
This music video really touched my heart. The horrifying truth of what is happening to the Earth is so tragic. This video wants to open our eyes and see everything that we have done. It wants to tell that we need to stop destroying our own world. Of course, few of us aren't aware or are we? We just don't want to do something about it. If we don't do something, all will be lost. 
Mother Earth needs us – she need us badly.
To all of us – let us help for the greater good. We still have the chance to do something – just little steps at a time. For such small things that we can do, can make a difference. Let us do our job as a citizen, living in this world that Almighty God has bestowed upon us – let us help create and bring back the beauty of our world.
