Today I saw a movie that is Pride and Prejudice.

It was beautiful and moving.

Especially in the movie, hero who is Dashi was wonderful.

Dashi is considerate person. And he very shy.

But his love is great.

 I and my friend was happy after movie ended.

I want to see a drama Pride and Prejudice.

 In the drama pride and prejudice, the actor Colin Firth plays the hero.

Colin Firth is my favorite actor.

I think Colin Firth fit for that role.

The story of Rip Van Winkle is that first American imaginative fiction.Rip van winkle is an amiable farmer who wanders into Kaatskill mountains. He was a simple good natured man. .

When spceship travle universe for 10 years, but in the earth time passed 1000years at the same time. This apply to the case ‘theory of relativitty.

What is the most important thing in our life? I sometimes ask to my friends this question. Then, someone said that it is money as a joke or truly. Or someone answered that it is love. However, I believe that the most important thing is health. In truly, I was sick last year and I had a big surggery on my shoulder. At that time, I had a very hard time and I was so depressed. And I realized health is really important thing after losing my health. I am still sick a little bit and I have to see a doctor regularly, but I really try to keep and recove my health such as taking a swimming lesson even though it is a little hard. If you don’t try to keep your health, you won’t be healthy and regret like me.

It’s about one of my best friends’ story.

  A couple of weeks ago, my friend had a blind date with a guy. He was not only handsome, but also polite, quite humorous and popular with many girls. He’s so-called ‘Casanova’. And she forgot herself as she met him for the first time. But she worried about herself. She has thought she looks so beautiful and charming. So, she thought she didn’t deserve to have a date with him. She felt like breaking her heart if she loves with him. And the really sad thing was she was dumped by him at the blind date. She felt desperated and was cried for a whole day. She made a phonecall to me at around midnight, and talked me her feelings crying over and over. I found myself at a loss for words of consolation. I was also sad, because I really love her. How can I speak smoothing words to her? Please give me an advice.

Trees and flowers are necessary for people to live.

  Plants can protect people from air polution. They can purify dirty air to clean air through photosynthate. Also, plants control the temperature of earth cannot increased anymore. Thank to them, we don’t really suffer from skin cancer or after effects from a green house effect. In addition, plants can help people give an emotional stability when they are under stress.

  The problem is that many countries cut plants down, and earn huge incomes by selling. But, we are not owners of earth. We are just users. For our descendents, we have to keep our environment. First, more governments should publish ‘Arbor day’ every year than now, and encourage people to plant trees and flowers. Seconds, environmental communities or organization should hold campaigns to realize recent problems around them.

  Without plants’ help, people cannot live longer and healither. Before thinking of our benefits and conveniences, we’d rather think about what way is more wiser. We should keep plants with all of our efforts.

I went shopping to the save zone with my mom. Actually, I don’t have nice skirt. So I want to buy new skirt. My mom and I chose my skirt but we had a problem. Because my mom stop chosing skirt. And then she start chosing pants.I want to buy skirt. I have my own style. But she never listens to me. Mom! I’m not kid!!

 In most cases, a person shouldn’t judge by external appearances. In many cases, sometimes when I walk down the street at night, I avoid people like migration workers from East South Asia. I feel they look dangerous because of their appearances. Their skin color is dark and there are so many rumors about migration workers are dangerous, but in general I prefer to reserve judgment until I get to know someone. Judge someone by external appearance can be deceptive. Judgment based on external appearances prevent you from getting know a person.

             In high school, I was one year older than my classmates, because I’ve been to abroad for one year. At first time my classmates avoid me because they though I am kind of ‘bad student’. As time goes by, after they getting know about me they start to be friendly with me. Later they told me my first impression was not so good but, after they know about my character and story, they could be talk with me and they realize that they shouldn’t judge a person by appearances.

              If you form an opinion of someone based on stereotypes you risk never getting to know someone who is different. You might miss out on an opportunity to have a good friend. And you are reinforce that stereotype by believe it with out given the person a chance.

             Judging people by external appearance is superficial and often unfair. After all, you do not know what circumstances the person might be face or who the person really is. Perhaps the person comes from a less fortunate wear. However, that does not mean the person is less intelligent or interesting than you.

             People should not judge new people they met, and should take a time to get to know them. External appearance often does not tell us anything about a person.

After class, I had an apointment with my friends. We promised to see a movie. But when we were going to movie theater, one of my friend’s cell phone rang. after that phone call, she said her grandmother is dead. So, I went to funeral. And while I was goind to home, I thought about losing precious people. For me, my grandmother. she passed away in March, 2005. When I heard her death for the first time, I couldn’t believe. Because I didn’t expect to her death. But I could accept it after I saw people who visit funeral. Actually, I don’t have many memories of her. I didn’t live with her and her house was too far from my house, so, I didn’t see her very often. But she was really good grandmother for me, and I miss her tonight. 

Seoul has advantages and disadvantages. Seoul has a very nice living environment like public transportation, shopping mall, public school and so on. Especially subway system covers almost region of Seoul and quite cheap. And there are many big and nice companies and this is why so many people are living in Seoul. Seoul is one of the safest cities over the world. But, there are 3main defects that make people think that Seoul is not a good place to live. Air-pollution, high living cost and over population is that. First, air-pollution is very negative facts for health and it is one of the main causes of lung cancer. Second, the house price is extremely high in Seoul. Finally, there are so many people in Seoul, so people conflict each other for very trivial things.

The midterm exam season is coming already. A lot of people are showing up in the library and stay there studying until the mid night. I also have started to prepare for the exams. It is a little bit boring and tiresome to be stuck in the library all day long. However it is rather worthwhile to concentrate on my studies, get to know more about my major subject and understand it. Actually it is also good that I don’t have to dress up every morning. I am happy that I enjoy this season, otherwise it would be much harder to bear.

 I saw a musical called the last empress. It was great time. I saw it with my family. We didn’t enjoy together for a long time. After we had a dinner together at the restaurant, we enter the Seoul Arts Center. I think that to see a musical is a good chance to meet good songs and beautiful dances. Even though I cannot see a musical often, I really enjoy seeing a musical. 

 The last empress’ songs and voice was great. And the expressions of history were easy to understand the historical situations. The musical describes the procedure smoothly. As you know, The empress was murdered at the end of the story by Japanese soldiers. It is hard to believe that is a real story. I think it is a big tragedy. 

 I was moved the final song called ‘rise, people of Chosun’ which was sung by a ghost of the empress. This is one of the famous song in this musical. I recommend you listening this song and seeing this musical. I had a happy time to enjoy this musical with my family. I wish you enjoy this wonderful Korean musical.

I have a younger brother. He is a high school student. He is 19 yrs old and I’m 21yrs old. He is the top in his class but I have never took first place in my examination. He is very reasonable, logical and patient but I’m really emotional and impatient. He is sort of serious and blunt. He doesn’t talk much. He usually responds too short. Yesterday I said “hey, I bought a MP3 through internet web site.” and he said “ok.” That’s all. He likes to watch sports games on TV but I like to watch dramas and sitcoms. He does not have the guts but I do. When I’m with him, I always talk like a chatterbox. He takes after my mom and I resemble my dad. He has a black face and I have a white face. We don’t have a lot in common but I love him. My brother comes back home from school at 11:30pm. After taking shower, he eats some refreshments. While he has some food, I talk to him. I think it is my happiest time in my day. So I always wait for him until 11:30pm. He doesn’t talk to me but I know he loves me so much. I LOVE my brother.

A couple of weeks ago, it was un unlucky day.

  People usually call the day Murphy’s day. In the morning, I got up late and I felt like being late for school. Because I was so hurry to go to school, I forgot to take my cellphone, wallet, and credit card. When I arrived at the train staition, I realized I didn’t take something. But, I cannot go back home. So, I decided to gain some coins on the street. I felt so ashamed, but I cannot help doing that. After arriving at school, I borrow some money from one of my classmates who I’ve hardly ever been hand and gloves with each other. Anyway, I could barely get fare to come home. But the problem is that nobody was at home. I didn’t have keys, cellphone, and any money! It was terrible. Only thing I can do was just waiting and waiting. It was too cold to stand on the passage of my story. I really wanted to shout loudly. At that time, my younger brother came up to 7th floor and I could be in my home. All the day seemed like Murphy’s day, and what is worse, I got really bad cold.

Have you been in love? There are many kinds of love. For example, there is love between parents and their children. There is also love among friends. But generally, when we talk about love, it must be about couples. Some poeple don’t even believe in love, and even if they believe in it and love somebody deeply, things still don’t work and they might get hurt. Loving somebody and being loved by her/him is not something you can do without efforts. Here are some ways to love your partner.

You should compliment freely and often. Compliment  is not something you can do only to your partner. This is what you can do to everyone around you if you love and cherish them. Secondly, you should appreciate and celebrate differences. You can’t expect your parter to change everything for you. You should respect her/his opinions and thought,which are different from yours without complaining about them or disparaging her/him.  When you respect your partner you can expect to be respected by him/her.  You should also be forgiving. people make mistakes. Your parter can make mistakes too. You can just forgive what s/he has done instead of getting angry and blame her/him. Lastly, you should apologize sincerely. After you have an argument with your partner, Even if you don’t think the matter is your fault it’s important for you to be willing to apologize first.

Many people are in love. Some people maybe are looking for their love. But if you really want to love someone, the first thing you should do has to be respecting and adoring her/him.  Love is what God gives two imperfert people to work out and make it beautiful. You should thank for your partner for loving her/him and being loved by her/him. 

I’d like to tell you an anecdote about a friend of mine almost chaged into Marilyn Monroe.

  A friend of mine and I were students in the first year of highschool in 2000. We both had attended an extracurricular class at a private institute. After school, we were on our way to there on foot. As we were walking on a ventilator over a subway, the end of our skirts was rolled up to our waists. But, we both were so concentrating on memorizing what we had learned in school that we didn’t much care about surroundings. At that time a group of boys behind us burst into laghter and said, “Look! Don’t that girls look like Marilyn Monroe?” We stopped walking and relized what had been happened to us. All we had to do was to escape from that situation. We ran out as fast as we could without taking a glance at anybody. Although the memorial made us feel ashamed, we never forget it.  

I had an experience never to be forgotton that I was struck with terror about flying. When I visited to meet my nephew in Hyongkong about 10 years ago, I got in a Boeing Jet. At the time it was jam-packed with passengers by the time I went en route to Hongkong. Suddenly, there was a extreme air current change with a violent sotrm. The airplane rolled heavily from side to side, upward and downward. Then, it circled round high above sea close to Hongkong. I really felt fear of death in a moment, and it made me shudder. After all, when the airplane arrived safely at the airport, my heart was seriously trembling. Since then, though I have been on fifty flights, but whenever I fly in a plane, I have fear about flying so far. Moreover, I have a sudden flash of memory.

Most people have experienced failure even when they really work hard. I have been asking myself why I don’t achieve whatever I try, and I have blamed myself for not succeeding in. However, because life is hard, somtimes even when we do all the right things, it stiil doesn’t work. Of course nobody would praise our failure, but failure can be one of life’s greatest teachers.

Failure teaches us to correct our action. It forces us to look at what we are doing and gives us the opportunity to try another thing. Failure also teaches us about perseverance. It asks us whether we are going to quit or keep trying. This is very important value of failure because not many people can become more determined when they have some problems. Finally, It teaches us that we can survive defeat. There is nothing wrong with making mistakes and There is no shame in falling, only in being afraid to try again.

If we can not make a mistake, we can not make of success. If we are not willing to risk failure, we are not deserved of success. I get frustrated and disappointed too often ,so I give up and quit easily. It is so nature to feel angry when you have variable unsolvable problems but suffering should not destroy you.

I want to learn the piano.

I can play the guitar.

But I really want to play the beautiful music to good melody.

I tried to learn that how it is, but I’m very busy right now.

And than I study to play the piano later.

     Since it is really cold and windy out side, I am stuck in my dorm room and nibble on some gummy bears. It is my favorite sweets. Actually I am not sure I can call gummy bears “sweets.” Anyway it really is chewy but yummy. My favorite color is red because it smells so good and tastes good, too. I also like to make a line of them like red one, orange one, yellow, green, and so on. When you see thier little faces, hands and stuff, sometimes it’s kind of hard to “eat” the cute little bears. But when I hold them in my hand, I can’t just help eating them. Even while I’ve been writing this, I might have eaten thirty of them. I love gummy bears.

What is your favorite movie? Titanic is one of  best films I’ve ever seen. I’m sure that you guys have seen this before. I think you see a synopsis of the movie and characters. The whole thing was really wonderful. It was very touching. It is  never boring even though I watched it several times. It is a drama with a romance in it. I enjoyed every mintute. Especially the title song sung by Celine Dion was great! At the end of the movie, I couldn’t help crying. I will never forget the film.

I will plan about this summer vocation tonight. I am exited . I will go to New Zealand .

 Once in a month, schools which take place Toeic are crowed. This happend every month. Why do they learn and study English? The first reason is companies want you do English which is popular business language in the world well. And some people learn the English because of self-satisfaction or interests of English culture. There are several way to learn English. You can go aborad or you can study by yourself in the library. Also It is possible to register English institutes in Korea. Korean study too hard and spend a lot of money due to English. Both kids and their parents are stressful. Parents work harder to make money for private education and the children are under pressure, too. Several reason make people  crazy about English. The society is so competitive. So if you don’t do better than other, you might feel like a inferior person. Learning English is flourishing along with a boom in globalization. Korean is sensitive to boom. Also nobody believe that public English education works effectively. There is no way except for studying out of school. People fight English to conquer. Is that possible? Korean need to think seriously what is English to us.

 There is many different kinds of alcohol in the world. You can get wine, Beer, soju and bomb cocktail if you want to drink. Also, various factor such as peer pressure, celebration and stress from study make you drink alcohol. Now you can drink, so do you drink? The answer is no. First of all, when you get some alcohol if you are depressed, it makes you more depressed which might be related with a hypochondria. Second, it hurt you physically and mentally. After drinking you suffer from hangover. And if you drink continuously, you could get liver damage and could be addicted to alcohol. Third, you don’t have enough time to waste your time because of drinking. You will be soon adult. After you grow up, you can drink a lot whenever you want. The society will make you drink. It is time to prepare your future not wasting your life. Even though various alcohol attract you, think about your physical and metal health and precious time. To be a strong men!!

 Drinking alcohol has good points for making adults enjoy their lives

if they don’t drink too much. First, people can reduce their stress

which is from their jobs and lives. Additionally, people can make

many friends in fun atmosphere because people play games and

make funny mistakes. Further, sometimes it makes people get closer

because of sharing secret. Furthermore, people can celebrate

something which they want to celebrate in their party with a toast.

Finally, it makes people forget bad feelings temporarily.

Aquarobics, which is aerobics in the water, has many good effects that

you mignt be interested in. First of all, it has good effects on health.

Specially, it is good for the heart,the blood vessel system, and

respiratory organs. In addition, it is very effective for losing weight and

getting a fit body. For example, people can dissipate two times more

fat than exercise on the ground because of resisting power, lifting power,

and buyancyassistance tools. Further, it prevents senility and makes

people reduce stress becausepeople do aquarobics with exciting music.

Finally, people can recover from injuries because of soft and warm

I read the book. I feel various emotion after read the book. First, Anne’s acting is cute and lovely. Anne is talkative but power of expression is good. And Anne has abundance of imagination. Second, Canada which appear on the book is very beautiful. Canada was described minutely on the book. Third, Anne’s character is charming. We (Anne and I) are much alike in character. So  I feel sympathy toward Anne. I saw the features which Anne comes to mature and I was impressed. I think that I want to live like Anne. Last, when I read the book, I feel happy.

Acquring second language is not that easy. If you don’t have a special talent and you are just an ordinary person, it needs you to put a lot of effforts to get it. Especially, you are korean, your sencond languagr would be English. Not  only have I studied English,but most of people also have learned English as a part of religion. Do you agree with we that I compare English to a religin? some people moght not agree with me ,but see many of poeple who live in korea and think of your friend and your self.  Then, Look back on  How you reacted when you happened to meet a person speaking well. I assume that the first saying you expressed was ‘wow’ or ‘amazing’. You kind of worship poeple who speak well or get a good score well in English. I admire them, too,and also I want to be like them. This is probably what many people who have been studying English have in their mind.

As I mentioned it before, taking English as a study is hard. However, you should admit that English is not your mother tongue, so you don’t have to feel pressured that you are going to be perfect. It is absurd, but I am not discouraging you that you can’t be perfect. what I want you to know is that find the way you can study it efficiently and keep and  your method up and continue it. It is easy to say that ,but as you alrealy know that the fact finding and keeping is not as easy as saying. So I want to make some tips or advice which could help you to find your successful solutions.

First thing you should do id fiding your own way. Keep that in mind that there is no short cut and an answer paper for you. You need to go and spend you time. Even tough , you don’t find the answer, don’t be depressea and keep doing it over and pver until you get to the final. you could learn lots of things by doing yourself. It can not be taught by teachers or even books. Having your own experiences is the best teacher in your life. There are many ways you can expose to English in even Korea. For instance, I suggest you go to Iteawon if you want to practice your speaking ability. Some poeple have xenophobia ,so they can not talk to foreigners. I asumme that why they afraind of foreigner is beacause they lack Enlgish ability. However, it does not matter. Just be brave. Foreigners would know that you are not native speakers and would like talk to you. They might want to know more korean culture and have freinds. Be thier firends and show how well you can speak. The other way to improve your English is reading books which written in English of course. It problay gives you tons of new vocabolaries and you could remember that simultaneously. It may help your listening skill as well because you can hear up to what you know. Sencond thing that I want you to remember is keeping. Unless you keep using your secret , you can lose it all. The important you can keep it well is a goal. It could be a test like toeic or toefl or make a club with your friends that keeps you awaking by getting inspired each other or lowering lazyness. Another way is rewading yourself. If you achieve a certain kind of level, you praise yourself and buying somthing that you want to get. Then, you would be proud yourself and feel so good.

Except what I mentioned above, there can be many diffferent ways that you can learn English more effectively. As one of Enlish learners who wants to study greatly and well. I want you to have those things in your mind always as I do. If you want something, you should sacrifice you anyway. No pain , and No gain. Why don’t you step up English ladder ane by one without resting?

Why people drink alcohol? Specillay Korean.
