While waiting outside the cafeteria, I received the following message from my friend:
It took me a minute before I realized what it meant. The signs he used were to say that he’d be running late and would be there soon. Instead of replying with a simple “OK, don’t rush”, I searched for emojis on my phone that would express the same message:

P1&2
Presentation
This was my attempt to follow the trend of communicating with emojis. Emojis are used everywhere,from text messages to emails, blogs and other social media networks. With the rapid development of social media, emojis are becoming an integral component of the language we use to express ourselves.
P3
Presentation
The word “emoji” comes from Japanese, literally meaning “picture character”. Emojis are small symbols representing ideas, emotions or feelings. They come in different categories, such as faces and people, plants and animals, and food and drink.
P4
Presentation
When first introduced in Japan in 1999, emojis were limited to 176 simple designs. Now there are more than 3,000 emojis that expand upon the way in which we communicate. Due to their popularity, the Oxford Dictionaries Word of the Year in 2015 was, for the first time ever, a pictograph instead of a traditional word.
P5
Presentation
In today’s world, emojis have become more and more popular. It seems that emojis have clear advantages over written language. People like them because they add emotional meaning, and are quick and easy to use. In fact, this is similar to the gestures we use when we speak. With a smiling or sad face added to a message or post, your reader can “see” your facial expression while reading your words.
P6
Presentation
Emojis can also help people express their feelings when they cannot find the appropriate words. For instance, if your friend is moving across the country, you may just send them a string of crying faces to express your sadness over your separation.
P6
Presentation
The use of emojis has even spread to classical literature. A Shakespeare series for young readers has taken William Shakespeare’s popular plays and replaced some words with textspeak and emojis. The intention of these adaptations is to make the classics more accessible to young readers. Some people, however, believe that these new versions have taken away the heart and soul of Shakespeare’s plays.
P7
Presentation
As we can see, emojis have a tendency to pop up all over the place. Users of emojis say that they facilitate the way in which we communicate and express ourselves. But this makes others, especially educators, worry that we are losing the ability to communicate properly using the written word, or even the spoken word. After all, how many of us today would rather send a message packed with emojis than make a telephone call
P8
Presentation
Perhaps people will one day choose to communicate in pictures, and forget how to write properly. On that day, emojis will have become a real pictorial “language”. But, for now, maybe it’s best t hat we just enjoy using them.
Improvement
What do you think about the way people use emojis
Improvement
Emojis occasionally used in daily conversation are vivid and interesting in conveying people’s feeling. But if we only use emojis to communicate, I think sometimes it may be very hard for people to understand and it is also a waste of time spending so much time finding proper emojis to express one’s feelings.
