Innocence LJ

New Article!! I've added some new opinions. This time on something that might interest a lot of people:


With the second release of Apple's iPhone (and subsequent software update), it struck me: technology is developing at an alarming rate! Yea, I'm slow. However, the progress the industry is making is ridiculous: communication devices that fit in our ears, phones that play music, music players that act like phones; have we finally created Sailormercury's futuristic devices?

Update! I've finally gotten around to actually putting up two of the articles I've written about Ami-related subjects. The first one that came to mind was this whole about Japanese education and its rigorous system:


In the anime, Ami is relentless in her studies. It is difficult to not find her somewhere reading a book, writing down notes, or reminding her friends that "we should take this time down to study!" And you may wonder why. Why is Ami's character the staple of the 'proper' Asian student? What makes her so stressed out and worried? The Japanese education system, that's what. The 'entrance exams' Ami speaks about are for admission into high school .... high school! Japanese high schools are renowed for their competitiveness and price - meaning, their admission procedures rival those of university admission in other countries.^[1] However, though this rigorous system of education has resulted in very impressive education standards internationally, the psychological developments of the students can be troubling.^[2]
