The darker side of a microchip implant #5

In our English 2 subject, we had to choose what's the topic of our term paper and I ended up choosing the microchip implant as my topic. I was interested in the idea of the microchip implant when my brother showed me a video of a man wearing a microchip inside his own body. At that time, I was suddenly bothered why it is needed on the human body in order to have an occupation or just to buy food on the mall without the use of a money. Is it really necessary? To be implanted by a microchips to get what you want? That was the questions that struck in my mind when I first heard of the thing microchips. It's kinda creepy though, how many people relates the microchip as a "mark of the beats" on the Holy Bible and just avoid it as fast as the society can after it becomes mandatory for us to be CHIPPED. And also, I was completely curios of how it is inserted beneath the human's skin just like what they did on the animals. And lastly, the question: Is it harmful for humans to be inserted by those microchips. At that moment, I realized that I should research on those things, about its benefits and disadvantages.

A human microchip implant is an integrated circuit device or RFID transponder encased in silicate glass and implanted in the body of a human being. A subdermal implant typically contains a unique ID number that can be linked to information contained in an external database, such as personal identification, medical history, medications, allergies, and contact information.

That's how I understand the microchip implantation on human, obviously it gives benefits and advantages to people, almost in every aspects of our lives. In our every living, we always depend on the technologies around us and as we depend, technologies' standardizes increases. it evolves spontaneously and we became unaware of the effects of it in our lives. We just learned to depend on it on its advantages but on the other side, there's a consequences. Just like what's my term paper is all about. As the microchips evolved, some potential issues of it arises. The potential issues of it are health, religious and human privacy. Those issues are just like knives that stabbing our backs of we just continue to use this kind of technologies. And it's a total harmful in our human race, specially when it comes to health first. What do you think you can do if you have a microchip inside of you? It doesn't mean that you're 100% safe because there are possibilities that it can harm our entire body system.

In addition, many Christian speculated that the implantation of microchip is the “Mark of the beast”. The Bible mentioned "He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name. This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666. (Revelation 13:16-18)" It really means that it is one of the works of the enemy that may trigger us to use. It's not very good though.

And Lastly, the issues about privacy. This is wicked because it's not just invading our bodies, but also invading our privacy. once it is stored with you, it can never be remove (unless you'll go to hospital). All the information is stored in your own body. And you can be easily trace by others on just simply tacking down your chip. Many issues will arise when it come to privacy, it could be an identity theft issue or a hacking issue. Problems could be added if we just continue to use it.

I'm glad that I chose this one as my topic on our term paper because I'm completely aware of the effects of the microchip in our body concerning on health, religion and privacy.

When I first heard this song on the radio, I like the message of it because it inspire us to be who we wanted to be,,...It's same as Who Says but in completely different concept. The singer, Katy Perry, resembles the fireworks that is within her as herself. As well as the other people that is described on the music video. A lot of us are afraid to show our true selves because others might not understand us or even hate us. But as I watch the music video and portray it to myself, I realized that I'm one of those people who were afraid to show who I really am. So I was inspired by this song to be just like me. To show other's who I really am. That's what I got to te message of this song.

Who Says by Selena Gomez & The Scene #3

"Who says
Who says you’re not start potential
Who says you’re not presidential
Who says you can’t be in movies
Listen to me, listen to me
Who says you don’t pass the test
Who says you can’t be the best
Who said, who said
Won’t you tell me who said that"


Ever since I heard this song it keeps on repeating in my mind over and over again. And I really like the music video of the song as well. This song entitles Who Says by Selena Gomez (one of my favorite singer) is my newly found addicting song and is stuck in my head whenever I hear it. Actually, I have many favorite songs and MV's by my favorite artists but I choose this song because it's the song that completely stuck in my head these days. And talking about the music video, the concept is nice and vibrant and it's like "being yourself", somewhat like those stuffs. Selena is so pretty wearing those dress and sometimes, I wish I could be like her. Haha. It's just one of those funny things when you got jealous of celebrity and stuffs. But I admit, this is my fave mv of her and I totally love it. Actually, she's one of my role models (along with her best friend, Demi Lovato) in Hollywood because I consider her clean.

Here's the MV of Who Says by Selena Gomez & The Scene


Don't judge the book by its cover.
yeah, it's one of the message of the song.
This kind of song always makes my day by its wonderful meaning. When I played it, it somewhat gives me the courage to stay strong from who I am despite the fact that I'm a terribly quiet person and have an extreme difficulties on expressing how I feel to others specially people whom I barely knew. People may judge me as a cold distant girl but it's not really who I am, it's just the way how I look on the outside but totally different in the inside. Also, the song tells me to trust myself, be content from who I am even if others will judge me. Who are they to judge me anyways? Are they even that perfect? Besides nobody's perfect so, each and everyone of us is the same because we are made by our one and only God and we have our own qualities and uniqueness. Everybody's beautiful and worth it on his/her own way.
