Reading through other people's experience...

             Reading through other people’s experience, I found out that I rather expressed my experienced as emotionally while others expressed them in a calmer way. Maybe it was because many people were outside of Japan, one month has passed since 3.11, or they have much ability to see this incident as rather a third person. I mean they can see things in many ways, which is a better thing I think.

Addition, even they were in Japan and had the actual experience of earthquakes, they were not the one who got in line to get foods and water at the supermarkets, and people who came to Japan did not over react to the radiation problem. All of them are trying to get new, better, and trustworthy information, and understand them correctly as much as possible.

              As a person who has fully grown up in Japan, it was quite surprising that many students from abroad still decided to come or come back to Japan. I thought many of them have already left or decide never come back. What I have heard from TV does not really fit to what I see and hear around me. Then how that false or different information is coming from?

Now I agree that media impacted me to think in this way, and reality can be different from what media is telling us through TV and the Internet. I should try to reach information without the media, and have conversation with them. Technology has its negative side other than its usefulness. I am interested what kind of technology can be used in certain situation effectively and how we should use the them in certain situation.
