But I realize it's been pretty boring to just sit around all day for a few months, so I decide to take some classes just for the sake of somewhat a mock routine. That needs to be done in order to keep my sanity.
Anyhow, prom was like almost two weeks ago and I think it's not as memorable as I wished it would have been, hence I didn't write about it.
My cousin is getting married in a week, I guess.
The invitation card of hers is green and white striped, with silhouettes of a bride and a groom at the front.
Why am I writing about this?
I absolutely have no idea at all.
Never mind about that.

My IELTS test is in two weeks and I have done nothing as preparation for it.
Quite daring, as I would say.
But the idea of failing isn't appealing to me, at all. Therefore, I decide some practices and studying will do me good.
And I'd like to brush up my writing skill here.

Here's a random topic I picked up from my old book:
Some people believe that computers are more a hindrance than a help in today's world. Others feel that they are such indispensable tools that they would not be able to live or work without them.
* In what ways are computers a hindrance?
* What is your opinion?
Use your own ideas, knowledge and experience and support your arguments with examples and with relevant evidence.
You should write at least 250 words, in 40 minutes
Nowadays, computers are almost as common as microwaves, or perhaps more common in some cases. It's also commonly acknowledged that computers play a great role in making our lives easier. However, negative opinions also arose on the computerization mechanism in our life. How could such a useful machine be considered as a hindrance in our lives?
Like most things invented, computers are meant to ease our burdens, especially with all the programs designed to compliment the function of a computer. For example, writing and editing with a word processor are easier to be done; creating arts digitally is far easier than traditionally; arranging files and documents are also much simpler digitally, this function is particularly useful to those people who have so little time and so many things to do. Beside that, computers could also provide us with some sort of entertainment: we could read, listen to the music, watch movies, play games and connect with other people (with the help of the internet).
Although with all the good things offered by a computer, it still could be an obstacle. For example, some people lose the track of time when they're enjoying themselves on the entertainment stored in a computer, most notably on the games and internet section; some people also store all of their important files and documents on the computer without any backup, so when the computer is infected by a virus or any other lethal malfunctioning worms, said people could simply bid all their hard work a farewell.
In my opinion, to completely stop global usage of computers is an impossible deed, as it plays a really important role on our busy lives, but then again, relying too much on it isn't good either, as spending too much time sitting in front of the screen will also cause obesity. So, the idea is to balance the time we spend on and off the screen.

I seriously need to practice more.
And I sorta feeling that my writing has some kind of 'on hold' feeling.
