A book might seem boring because it's all words. It is kind of tiring to keep reading words and only words. However when look into it and start reading, one would realized and get interested what these words can give us. These words formed together can give us an interesting story, information or even encouragement. You might know some of the information the book gave you, but you cannot possibly know everything. The book can give useful information that you might not know.
It's the same when I took this module, Effective Internet Research. The first few lessons seemed rather boring to me. We had to write blogs and do research. Who wouldn't know how to do researching on the internet? However when we go in details throughout the module, I learnt useful ways to do internet research which I never knew – using Boolean to search. I've also learnt that not only Search Engines can be useful for researching; there is Meta Search Engines that is also rather useful.
Now EIR is ending soon and is in the last chapter, I am feeling happy and sad. Happy because we are finally finishing this book; Sad because all the thing we had gone through during this period time will become memories. It's just like life; we can only go through that moment for once, and whenever we want to be in that moment, all we can do is only access that particular memory. Memory is very different from experiencing that moment afterall.
