Newspaper makes me think of my mother. She's the one who influence me to read the newspaper, the one who always tell me about what has just happened around the world (whenever I'm too lazy to read it by myself). Everytime when she had finished reading the newspapers, I would sure be mumbled, you know why? It is because the newspaper always show news about crime, dangerous cases that had just happened around us especially cases similar to girls being raped and killed. I guess that you for sure know why I would be mumbled cause of that? *laugh* Yes, I'm the kind of girl who always like to hang out with friends, so it's normal that my mum always like to tell me cases related to girls so that I will not hang out with friends so oftenly and beware whenever I'm away from home.
Me, unlike my mother who will always sit on the sofa, make herself a cup of coffee and read the whole newspaper, yes, its every single column (except for those horoscopes, sudoku and etc). When it comes to newspaper, I'm quite choosy. My family purchased 3 kinds of newspapers (2 Mandarin, 1 English) anually, which I'm gonna show you later. Every morning when the newspapers arrive, the headlines will make me decide whether I wanna read them or not.
Everyone knows that the headline of the newspaper can be considered as the most attractive news of the whole newspaper. So if the headline does not attract me, I will consider that the entire newspaper content will also bore me, sorry to say that to the newspaper lovers like my mother :O
Online Newspaper VS. Printed Newspaper
People like me, I can't live without my gadgets. Lately, online newspaper has been introduced to the society. Me, myself have an iPad, I'd downloaded a newspaper application called "evening edition" and it really make me feel convenient at first. But after sometime, I don't really quite like reading newspaper online anymore. I still prefer reading news through the printed newspapers, don't ask me why, I just like the feel of holding the newspaper on my hand and flip the pages one by one. How about you?
Well, as I said I'm gonna show you the 3 kinds of newspapers which my family purchase. What so special about them? They are different from what you are reading now unless you're a "Sabahan" like me.
Overseas Chinese Daily News
New Sabah Times
The Borneo Post
