showing my AWS certification to Jamie, I took out my degree papers from my bag. I am afraid, I didn't put them back in the bag, and the envelope containing those documents might be near the TV case. I'd appreciate it if you could post those to my address as soon as possible. Because I might need them next week for a job interview. I'd love it if we all could meet again at my place

Many countries aim to improve their living standard by economic development, but some important social values are lost as a result. Do you think the advantages of economic development outweigh the disadvantages
Numerous countries are focused on raising the standard of living through economic development; however, this can sometimes lead to a decline in essential social values. I contend that the merits outweigh the disadvantages because the growth of the economy can lead to better infrastructure, even though it can result in people prioritizing wealth over building relationships.

Some people claim that museums and art galleries are not needed today because everyone can see historical objects or art works by computer. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
An increasing number of individuals today opt to use computers to see any historical events or related objects, whereas there are numerous monuments, pieces of art and books preserved in museums or art galleries which have not been recognized by modern society. Although everyone can use computers to watch all objects related to past events, I can not support the notion that exhibitions are useless and will discuss my point of view.

While it is Sometimes thought that prison is the best place for criminal, other believe that there are better ways to deal with what is your opinion?
While many believe that imprisonment is the most effective way to deal with criminals, others argue that alternative approaches may lead to better long-term outcomes. In my view, although prison is necessary for serious offenders, rehabilitation programs and restorative justice can be more effective in addressing the root causes of crime, particularly for minor offenses.
