This is a comment on the use of the expression "!" in english.

Basically this symbol is used two ways in a written context.
1. To express the suggestion of a shout or an order. Thus if someone in a novel was running through a military checkpoint and the guard yelled "halt", it would be correct to write this exclamation as "Halt!"

If a building were burning and you yelled to alert others, when describing what went on in a novel, you might write: "Fire!" said Susan.

2. The second way is to express admiration. As an example of this:

The New York fire Department has eight thousand members. Their bravery is known the world over. I love them!

My hobby is playing computer because I like it. I use it 6 hours every day. I usually use my computer for doing my homework and sometimes I use it for playing game too. My favorite game is RAKNAROK. It makes me fun when I don't have anything to do. But I think it is not good for my health because when you play computer you only sit in front of the moniter and don't do anything more than moving your hands and fingers. However, I love my hobby very much.

Hi, winnie! My hobby is playing the piano too! I have learned how to play the piano since I was three. I mainly play classical music. I'm learning Chopin now. Chopin is difficult for me but Chopin's music is very beautiful and splendid. So I like Chopin very much. I have to practice every day.
