Stop, genocide!

History repeats itself, genocide never stops going by the wheel of history. Genocide happens when a certain group of people are not educated enough to know that every one is equal in the world! There is no super species in the whole ecosystem, if there is, human is the one. All humans are meant to live equally. The whole world should enhance educating everyone on how wrong genocides are. It is every human's responsibility to stop genocide happening again!

Best wishes!

I was still wandering in my dreams when my cell phone rang last Saturday morning. I caught up the last ring. I did not recognize his voice till he repeated his name for the third time. I was never a loser in naming people I know on the phone. It was from Lin, who was my classmate 4 years ago, we only talked on line for couple of times after that. He told me he was in America now, a international student in ** College in New Jersey. It was his 3rd day here. Rather than excited, there was something more like worry and maze in the way he talked. He told me I was the only one he knew in America; there was not many people around there, since his school would not begin till 23rd,he had been waiting for his roommate; there was no fridge, TV, computer in his dorm. The first 2 lonely and boring days really made him start regretting to come to America. I could tell the disappointment in his talking. A pause before he asked if I could go visit him. I was glad he had called me. As an immigrant myself, I fully understant how hard it is at the beginning, not even mention he was alone in America. I promised him I would drive to his college as soon as I looked up his college location on line.
We finally met yesterday, he was the same one as in my memory. It was a extremely cold day, but he did not wear much. (It was always warm in the city we used to live.) He told me he had worked for more than a year after he graduated for high school, then he realized there was nothing could bring him a promotion than a higher degree. Fortunately, he got accepted by the ** College, and got passed through the interview with the immigration department. He told he wanted to find a job, which could at least affords his basic spending. Since his social security card was still processing, there was not much he can do without it. Then we decided to get everything started after he got his SS nomber.
Wish him everything goes well!

such a world!

I have heard many stories about discriminating against certain groups in a certain society, but I was still shocked by those cruel treatments which the people suffered in the Concentration Camps. If the Germans had considered those arrested in any slightly human ways, they would not have thrown women, children, olders to the gas chambers, they would not have starved those youths to death, they would not have to hang the prisoners discretionally. Did they not see those prisoners were the same humen as they were, they all got human feelings, they even spoke the same language, the only difference was the prisoners did not dominated the weapons, and the Germans were in power. Being in power is definitely not a reason for killing millions of others. There must be a reason for this tragedy. But what was it? According to the history, there was no such a thing could give the Germans any excuse to kill all those innocent Jewish people and others. In this case, I would just take it as all the Germans involved in this genocide were all animal-minded, rather than common human-minded.

introduction of myself

hi, this is Inga Liu, I am a freshman now, majoring in International Business. I want to be a business woman, flying back and forth between countries. I speak two languages, Chinese and English, the two most spoken languages ever. I have a part-time job in a Chinese Restaurant, hopefully, I will get my first car through there. I love playing ping pong, we have a ping pong table in our garage, where I spend most my spare time in. I am in Montclair State University, where I expect to finish my higher education and get myself into the exciting business world.
