Australia

Uncategorized — JooYoung on May 24, 2006 at 8:47 pm

  I went to travel in Australia with my younger sister a year ago. We went to go in Brisbane, Gold coast, Sydney for ten days. It is peaceful and has great surroundings, many parks. We ate the lunch in the park feeling fresh air and sunshine. And we drank a coffee in the open cafeteria front the coast and sightsaw opera house, a weekend market and so on.

  We also experienced difficulties. We took a wrong subway when we went to go from the air port to the hotel. So we wandered for long times. And we made a mistake when we went to go from Brisbane to Gold coast by bus. We took off a wrong place. Fortunately, we looked for the imformation desk. The guide explained us kindly and easily. So we can go to search the Gold coast. These all experience give me unforgetable recollection.

Old Habit

Uncategorized — sunmyung on May 24, 2006 at 6:08 pm

My sister married last Sunday, so this Monday was first day that I spent a day without her. Actually, she and I had spent a time together because we had same hobby that watching TV or listening music so on. She always asked the weather or how to wear when I was in outdoor, so I answered that sincerely. On this Monday, I was cold a little, so I just sent a message to her in order to say that ‘please wear warmly, if you don’t do that, your cold will be serious.’  However, at the time, I recognized that my sister wasn’t here, and then I chuckled alone. Honestly, I was annoying that task giving a message about weather to her, but I became one of my habit.

Capital punishment

Uncategorized — Lee bo ra on May 24, 2006 at 5:20 pm

Capital punishment can’t give a permit by moral and ethical. Many countries abilish the death penalty. That supporters claim that death penalty can repress by potentially criminals are threatened. And danger of incorrigible crimes is removed. But it is extremity. As destruction of the life of a mann, belief that social loss can be compensated is hard to be right.  I think man’s precious life can’t infringe disorderly.

Drama

Uncategorized — nami on May 24, 2006 at 1:50 pm

  Yesterday, the TV drama that I had the most enjoyable nowadays was finished. The story of the drama was that a man and woman started to fall in love again after they got a divorce. That is one of the reasons why I like the drama. It’s not common plot as TV dram, so I felt fresh and it’s enough to catch my interests. Also, the main actor and actress have my favorite character style, of course I like the hero as real actor. The more attractive point is just the simple shape without affectation. In addition, calm and soft background sound and sometimes the characters’ narrations of touching words are made me feel the same way as the characters’ emotions.

  I used to think ‘marriage’ is something to fantastic and fascinating life, but it’s more hard topic than my estimation. That means we don’t spend happy married life only a feeling of love. The gap between of the standard of living, religion problem and dissimilarity in character etc. are all important factors. I think this topic doesn’t get close to me, but drama is sometimes good way to think deeply about the principla issue in our life like marriage 

Please

Uncategorized — rinhee on May 23, 2006 at 11:53 pm

Now, I’m really worrying about my grandmother because she is very sick at the moment. She perhaps passes away tonight. My mother and father are going to meet her before she passes away. However, I can not go right now because I have to do my work tomorrow. Actually, I phoned my boss and told her about my situation. But she answered that I should go to my job place tomorrow because my grandmother is still alive. I can’t understand her, It, this situation, makes me crazy. I just can pray to God for my grandmother. I can’t sleep at all. I can’t do anything. Oh God! Please, save her. 

 

Brother

Uncategorized — Lee bo ra on May 23, 2006 at 9:27 pm

In the morning, my mom said that your brother is so sick. My brother doesn’t live with  my family.  This is because his school is located in Kang Wan Do. So Whenever he come back home, my mom prepare many kinds of food for him. In the last week, he came back home. But I couldn’t  see  him often beacuse  he stayed up all night in out side with his friends. So mom was so angry. But now, he is sick. My mom is worried him. I think he is impudent.

Uncategorized — EUNSOO on May 23, 2006 at 12:29 pm

There are so many holiday in May and June, The Catholic University Birthday, The Electing day,The memorial day, and sunday,  so I am happy. Of course , I am a studrnt , so I have to study. But I need some holiday because I am busy these days. I have to do many homework. In addition, It’s almost time to exam. Time is to fly. Unfortunately I can’t feel mood of May because I was busy. But I am happy. because It is defficult to have chance to learn something  in our life. I got chance . I will enjoy this time.  In campus, there are many flowers and trees. What a beautiful campus it is ! I love our campus and this time.   

Spam – mail

Uncategorized — Lee Ji Eun on May 23, 2006 at 7:09 am

 These days, I receive too many spam mails. Some of them are linked to pornographic sites. If the computer is in my room, it wouldn’t matter(The computer in my room is be under repair). I open them, watch a little, and erase them immediately. Of course I wouldn’t click the linked pages, haha.. But, at my home, the computer is in the living room. And sometimes I feel very upset to open my e-mail account. I’m afraid my parents would watch me and think I am doing bad things. Sometimes the senders use famous names such as Jeon Ji-Hyun and Jung Woo-sung. I think such nasty spam mail senders should be punished.

Tea

Uncategorized — Lee Ji Eun on May 23, 2006 at 7:04 am

 I learned about making tea from my parents. These days, my parents seem to be drinking regular cups of tea, especially green tea. According to my parents, the steps in making and drinking tea is…First, boiling hot water. Second, pouring boiling water into a bowl and washing it out. Third, putting in tea-leaves and pouring boiling water into the bowl again. Lastly, waiting for about 2 minutes and drinking the tea slowly and carefully.

Making a cup of tea is a very complicated process and takes a lot of time, but it seems to me that tea is just like water, but only it has a slight scent to it. If you simply want to drink a cup of tea, it would be easier to drink instant tea rather than to brew a cup yourself. But, my parents said tea must include the ‘spirit.’

Understanding others

Uncategorized — Lee Ji Eun on May 23, 2006 at 7:01 am

I have thought about how we can reduce cultural differences. As I expected, my final answer is ‘trying to understand each other.’ It is very simple and I think it is the best solution, but unfortunately many people don’t seem to act on it. For example, westerners abhor Korea’s custom of eating dogs. But when Koreans criticize the French custom of eating horses, what can they give in reply? I think people should be free to dress and eat anything (except human flesh), and they should also be free to live anywhere. Westerners rear dogs to ‘see and enjoy’ but we rear them to ‘eat’. Understanding people of other cultures is very difficult. I think the only solution is to educate others to understand and love each other.

An Italian restaurant

Uncategorized — Lee Ji Eun on May 23, 2006 at 6:53 am

Last saturday was my friend’s birthday. so we met with a lot of friends. We bought presents for him. We went to have an eating out in Italian restaurant of the hotel. The restaurant is very well known. The soup was very unique, as it was covered with bread making it looks like a mushroom. The spaghetti we always eat here has several kinds of seafood in them (lobster, shellfish…) and it is a little hot. Of course there were many pizzas. Particular, all the pizzas are very thin and toasted. They are also much softer than other pizzas sold elsewhere. Anyway, we had a good time with special and delicious food.

pet shop

Uncategorized — Lee Ji Eun on May 23, 2006 at 6:41 am

There is a newly opened pet shop in my neighborhood. On my way home from school yesterday, I stopped in front of the shop and watched many dogs playing with each other. They were really cute. One of the dogs bit his friend’s ears, and the dog that got bitten started whimpering. I was standing almost 30 minutes in front of the shop. I want to raise a dog. But because my family lives in an apartment, it is impossible. When I was in middle school student, I raised a dog. It was a kind of ‘chihuahua’. The color is brown and her eyes were very big. Her name was “Cutty” The dog was especially fond of me. Sometimes I really miss Cutty.

My typical day

Uncategorized — Lee bo ra on May 23, 2006 at 12:30 am

My day is not common, but  not special. I wake up at 8 a.m. and turn on the TV because I have a habit to confirm the day’s weather. After than, I eat breakfast and go to school.  After school, I  go to an academy. My school timetable is complicated, so some day I can’t go an academy. Anyway After academy, I come back home. But it is a long way to home. It usually takes about 1hour by subway. So when I arrive at home, I’m so tired. At that time I don’t want to do anything even if there is a homework. I  need to take a break.

Relatives

Uncategorized — Lee bo ra on May 22, 2006 at 10:45 pm

I went to Daejeon in the morning of Saturday to see my relatives.  I went with my family and two maternal aunts. On arriving my uncle’s house, he welcomed us. Our familly have had  a meeting. In the morning of Sunday, after finishing breakfast,  I came back to Seoul again. I’m sorry to see my relatives often. Since I was a junior, I couldn’t go their home because there were too many tasks for me. Anyway we often need to see our relatives.  

Time

Uncategorized — JooYoung on May 22, 2006 at 1:05 pm

 Time is very speedy. I felt march is very slow, but time is likely to pass in an instant after march. I made a plan when 2006 started. After five months now, I think that my behaviors are not satisfied. So I regret about my behaviors that I didn’t practice my plan completely. It often makes me angry and irritated. And nowdays I alwalys think what I really want to do and  can do skillfully. I don’t seek it until now. So I envy my younger brother, because my younger brother likes art and want to be interior designer. So he entered Sun-Hwa art high-school and is very satisfied with his school life. I hope to seek it before to be a senior.

Su-Jin Kang

Uncategorized — JooYoung on May 22, 2006 at 12:52 pm

 I saw the documentary about Su-Jin Kang. She is the best ballerina in German ballet theater. She entered it at twenty years old and contiuously is going to do ballet for twenty years. She didn’t play on the stage for two years, because she at first is inferior in it and Asian. So she was in slump . It followed overeating. However, she decided to restart ballet and practice 15 hours. I think her practice time is very amazing. So she undertake a juliet role of “Romeo and Juliet” After the performance, she took clapping for twenty minutes. I think she is very great, because she is the best one in ballet part although she started ballet at fourteen years old and I envy her, because she finds her talent. Finally, I respect her and her continual effort. 

election

Uncategorized — YoonJung on May 21, 2006 at 11:16 pm

May 31th, the day is a local election’s day. People who have the franchise have to elect necessarily. For that reason, there is too much noises recently from place to place. Also, great and small accidents often occurs. Of course, it is good that take a stump. However, election campaigners  canvass for votes both by day and by night. They don’t care time or place. I really wonder the person who stands for election knows about the fundamental human rights. If he/she knows it, I also wonder they have necessary quality to become a great statesman. An election campaign of Korea has to be changed.      

Studying abroad

Uncategorized — YoonJung on May 21, 2006 at 10:40 pm

I have a plan which is about studying abroad during next one year.  So, I’m very busy for preparation lately. From set a school to get a visa, there is many thing that I have to prepare minutely. In addition, I ‘m concerned about  a foreign country life. I’ll live away my family and friend for the first time in my life. I think the life will not easy. Sometimes, I may miss ordinary present-day. However, I want to see wider wolrd, and I hope to accomplish my dream certainly. I will can make a living well. I will hang out. When I return my country, I wish I can get many things.               

Wedding

Uncategorized — YoonJung on May 21, 2006 at 9:57 pm

When I worked in a clothing store, I got in with one who is older than me. By chance, she and I drank. At that time, I talked about my trouble. In fact, I usually don’t talk to anyone about my privacy. Although I don’t know even now why I share my worry with her, we became intimate upon the opportunity. This year, she is 27 years old and get married today. Two years ago, I arranged a meeting between she and the bridegroom who is also my intimate older brother. The meeting was not a serious, but they felt drawn to each other in an atmosphere of freedom. At the conclusion of deep love, they become man and wife. I play the wedding march as a special wedding present. I’m really happy as if my wedding. I hope that they live happily together.        

A lake park in Il-san.

Uncategorized — YoonJung on May 21, 2006 at 9:17 pm

A few days ago, I went to a park which is named Il-san lake park. The weather was so good, and my feeling was too. I often had heard it’s name, but I ‘d never been go there. So, I was so expected. When I saw the park at first, I was surprised it’s size. Although I walked around during two hours with my friend, I couldn’t look round on the whole. Sometimes, I sat on the benches and talked about my hard life to friend. I also heard about my friend’s trouble. In fact, I was reluctant to go because of a lot of assignments. However, I thought that I made a right in judgment when I got back there. After finished a walk, I and my friend took supper in famous eating house and drank some shot. Out of the arduous life, I could take a rest at long last. I never forget the outing.            

World Cup

Uncategorized — YoonJung on May 21, 2006 at 6:52 pm

Before four years, World Cup was held in Korea and Japan. At that time,  the result of Korean team was better than expected, nay, they were going against one’s expectation. The whole world was surprised by them and all Korean people stood together in victory of Korea. I ‘ve never forgot the impressive moment. In next month, World Cup will be held in Germany. They will never come up to our  expectations!! Although they lose in the game, anyone can’t  say a bad word for them. They always have tried to do for name of Korea and themselves. Anyway, the  Korean team was rewriting history of Korean soccer, so I’m sure that they will astonish all whole world again. I’m really looking for our victory!   

Wrong order

Uncategorized — JeongHun.La on May 21, 2006 at 4:19 pm

  It was reallywarm in the afternoon. I have nothing special to me today. It was  warm outside. I am getting hugry. I saw  a watch on the wall. It points at to 1 o’clock. I would like to have ”Naeng-Myong.” so I looked for  famous restaurants in yellow book. I called restaurant and ordered  “Nang-Myong” 2 dishes to be delievered to my home. I expect  that It will be more delicious to have  it  like this weather. after while  delievery boy  left, delivery man opened  the bag and found that the food was different from what I ordered.  he got ”jjam-bbong and ja jang myong.” It has been  the first time since I was ordered.I am really puzzled and I don’t know how  to dear with this situation. I just smiled at him. he was also confused too. he said  It was first time for him to order it.  I understand he made a mistake. I just decided to have them so deliciously with my brother. he said to me I am sorry to be inconvenience. and he was gone. It was so warm that we ran in sweat a little while having them. after finishing them,  a manager of restaurant  called me. he told me that we are very sorry about this problem. and  we will give you  free vouchers that can use next time for free. when delievery man picked up the dishes. we try not to make  such this mistakes and we will expect you to use our restaurants again. I told us that I got a little angry with that but we did them so deliciously. thank you and I hung up the phone.

 I think the manager of a restaurant is so kindly. I got  free vouchers and  will use them next time. It was really delicious for free.

Moral question

Uncategorized — hyojin on May 20, 2006 at 8:25 pm

This is really fun, and I hope every one enjoy it.  

MORAL QUESTION
This test only has one question, but it’s a very important one. By
giving an honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally.

The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in
which you will have to make a decision.
Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous.

Please scroll down slowly and give due consideration to each line.
THE SITUATION
You are in Florida , Miami to be specific. There is chaos all around

you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding.

This is a flood of biblical proportions. You are a photojournalist working for a major newspaper, and you’re caught in the middle of this epic disaster.
The situation is nearly hopeless.

You’re trying to shoot career-making photos. There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing under the water.

Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.
THE TEST

Suddenly you see a man in the water. He is fighting for his life,

trying not to be taken down with the debris. You move closer. Somehow
the man looks familiar. You suddenly realize who it is. It’s George
W.

Bush!
At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take him under forever.

You have two options–you can save the life of George W. Bush,

or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize-winning photo, documenting the death of one of the world’s most powerful politicians.
The Question

Here’s the question, and please give an honest answer:

 

Would you select high contrast color film, or would you go with the

classic simplicity of black and white?

Iced coffee

Uncategorized — hyojin on May 20, 2006 at 8:13 pm

It is getting hot, and I cannot forget Gord turning the fans on last day. So here I have some tips for delicious Iced coffee to cool down your body.  

1. Pour the coffee into a temperature safe container, and add ice until the mixture cools and doubles in volume. Keep in mind that the melting ice dilutes the coffee, which is why Iced Coffee is brewed using twice the amount of grinds at hot coffee.
2. To keep Iced Coffee cold and fresh, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Iced Coffee should be consumed within eight hours after brewing.
3. Drink as is, or add milk, cream or sugar to sweeten and lighten to taste.

Are you still hot? 

 

Library

Uncategorized — JooYoung on May 20, 2006 at 8:08 pm

 I went to go a library to do assignment. There is a library walking distance from my home. So I often use the library. It is very quiet, because it is located in the hill. And there is a culture hall besides it. A culture hall has several classes. For example, there are computer, cooking, and sport class( swimming, health, yoga, tennis). The sport class is specially popular. Most people who prepare the exam in long time use the sport class. They study in the daytime and exercise in the nighttime, because physical strength is very important to study in long time. And the library has many walking course. I like the walking course, because I can feel  fresh air. So I always take a walk after meal. I think the library is very a comfortable and nice place. 

My uncle

Uncategorized — JeongHun.La on May 20, 2006 at 7:59 pm

   My uncle has had sigificant influence on my life. he worked very hard as a young man to be successful. and my mother told me that he took  every new job that came alone. he went to university and became a lawyer after teaching a few years at the university as a professor.  he had taught  students at the unversity as a  professor for twenty years.after retiring from university, he decided to go back to his hometown  called to Mok-Po  he was started to work in his farm land. he has three children and saved a lot of money. he had three children before he died a few years ago. he left behind large estates for his children and wife. I really respect his life and his accomplishment.

graduate year

Uncategorized — hyojin on May 20, 2006 at 7:58 pm

Everyone says studying as a 4 year student is really horrible. However, no one can not imagine how busy the last year of school is without any experience.

First, you will be stolen your happiest hour- sleeping. If you sleep more than 5 hours a day, you are lucky. 6 hours? You’re really blessed! Tons of stuff to do will be piled up right before you. You might do those things even when you sleep- you might dream of translating, braingstorming for your essays and speeches, which deadlines come close, doing job interviews and so on. Second, you will be gradually seperated from your friend and family. If you find some time to hang out with your friend at least once a month, you may have lots of time to write a resume and put your effort on job search. Most of my friends and I do not have enough time to prepare job interview because our hands are full of tons of assignment, and tests. Third, you will lose hundreds of hair a day. This is very stressful. I have read this article, whose title was ‘New Job Title’, and it said that, “These days many people answer, ‘I am one of the unemployed.’ when they are asked what they do.” Right. If you don’t get a job before graduation, your job title could be an unemployed man. I don’t want to say that I am the one of the unemploed, but who know. So my hair is getting lighter with a lot of pressure.  

However, it is the last year and the only opportunity to spend your time only studying really really hard in your life. Keep in mind this one year will make your following 50 years. You can never return the past time, but your future is up to you. Don’t be afraid of losing sleeping hours, freinds, and your hair. It is only a year, and you will find them again on the day you smile with your nice job title.         

Accident

Uncategorized — JeongHun.La on May 19, 2006 at 11:59 pm

  I went to visit a friend of mine to help them paint  the wall of house. It was nice weather to paint it. I put on comfortable outfit. and I was ready to work. the work is to paint on the wall of house. my friends already had painted it. I am hurry to help him. I worn glove for worker and I heard my friends how to paint it. and I started to it.

All of sudden, I lost  my balance on the ladder because I  tried to paint out of my reach and fell to the ground. all workers gather to me. they call me my name I could hear myname faintly after a while. I could open my eyes . I thoght that I  dreamed of falling down. they told me ” are you okay?”  I replied. ” yeah I am  okay right now.” actually I couldn’t tell  them that I felt pain in my arms at that time. because they stared at me seriouly. I became confused. his father takes me to the hospital and I took an X-ray at the nearest hospital. fortunately, the results of test was good. so I had physical therapy. and they went back to the house.

I don’t know it was good or bad.I was really sorry to disturb their workers,and my friend. I regreted that i could help them  after physical threay. I went back to my house.  

swimming

Uncategorized — nami on May 19, 2006 at 10:47 pm

  I have been  learning swimming to lose my weight  every early morning from 2 weeks ago. It looks to me, swimming has more beneficial points to keep in shape. Even though the first reason to learn swimming is that I want to slim my body, but I could feel the other good points. 

  I had a symptom of atopic dermatitis a little bit, but now I can feel more soft my skin. Also, I can spend one all day very long and it’s worthwhile time. Owing to start every morning early,  I always spend every day with poweful energy. When I went the fitness center the first day, I could see so many young people like me. And then, I realized that they live very diligent, so I regreted wasting much time. In addtion, swimming gives help me in order to use my stiff muscles, so I refreshed and have a feeling of light from my body.

  If someone have serious problem in his/her life or they have some stress, I recommend that do exercise sports like swimming. Because I can get out of some gloomy and flabby feeling as well as I take a cheerful view of life.        

Trip

Uncategorized — JooYoung on May 19, 2006 at 8:07 pm

  I like a trip, because can gain valuable recollection and experience new culture. I went to travel in Tai two years ago. I heard surprising fact from a guide. Thai think dogs are people who did bad behavior in previous life. So they don’t kill and don’t tie dogs. Dogs usually follow people well, but they change wild as they are hungery and they often bite people.  Many people died because of rabies. So tai makes a castration day to stop increasing dogs. 

  I think all nations have special culture. It can gain effectively through a trip. I’m going to plan about a trip on this summer vacation. I already expect to travel.
