Why the information study interests me.

+ Concept of Information.

   Last week, while the professor visiting our classroom from Seattle gave us his speech, the setence, "many people have no perceoption of information.", moved into my mind and answered why people around me are always curious about what I study, and why I could not explain.

   Let say, If I study in law school or medical school, do people ask me what I study ? and does it need to answer that question?

   As every academic area that has short history does, at the first time people can ask them "what do you study in the field that looks unnecessary?" just out of curiousity.

   Those questions mean I've just entered the most interesting and challenging academic area, possessing lost of possibilities I could contribute.

+ Power of Information professinals.

   Yesterday, we've learned about information organization. I've been interested in that since when I'm undergraduate, because I was really impressed by the fact that physical subjects can be collocated theorically and the porcess that abstract concept can rule real items.

   And I've realized the power of information organization, litening explaination about shema and AACR2. Once we set up a form, rule, and structure of information, endless amount of information in every world should follow it.

  I thought that we are going to deal with amazing powerful tools, even though many people including me do not know how storng information power is, they're going to understand it in the near future like me.
