As technology develops, people can get news and information anytime anywhere, even a kid can get information from his/her surrounding easily nowadays. When I was young, television is usually the way I get news and information. I used to watch cartoons like Sailormoon, Power Rangers and Dragon Ball that shapes my personality to confront with the evil forces without any fear. Other cartoons like Sponge Bob and Teletubbies contains moral values that help to develop my interpersonal skills also. Besides, my parents were also my first educator to teach me the right and wrong things to do. They always remind me not to talk to strangers or accept anything from the strangers because it is very dangerous as there are many human trafficking activities going on at the world out there. My parents also teach me to care and save our earth. They used to tell me about the disasters happened all around the world to raise my awareness. They got this in my mind since I was young because they want to encourage me to take part in any environmental activities. As I grew up later, my main source of information is school. The notice board of every classroom will be updated weekly and students can easily get news and information there. Newspaper clipping homework also helps us to understand the outside world better upon completing the homework. Until today, internet has almost become a part of our lives for most of the people. There are variety sources of information on the internet that keeps me updated everyday, for instance, newspaper online and Facebook. It is very convenient as I can read it anytime anywhere for free. I also like to get the latest news and information through radio stations. They used to have their news broadcasting session during jamming hours in the morning. I also like to get news from lecturers and friends orally. For example, my friends would mention that there is lots of robbery cases happened in a housing area lately, so that we will be more alert to prevent the case from happening to us. Sometimes I will also read the news from newspaper. This is quite a traditional way of getting information but it is still very useful, though.
