My hobby is nothing special, so sometimes whenever anybody ask me “what is your hobby ?” I am embarrassed. Actually I don’t any hobby except breathing and sleeping. Yes, right. I am very lazy, so my health is  terrible. I have a stomachache and backache. One day, I couldnot disgest any food. I had a really bad pain. I thought I had a cancer. At that time I really belived that. But when I went to see a doctor, He said ” You need to walk. Your stomach is longer because you did not exercize”  When I heard it, I was very embrrassed. These days, I try to walk, but It is not easy because I am lazy. Take care your body. You know health is the most important in our life.  

Suddenly, I want to go to Jejudo. I long for the good old days. I took a very pleasure trip to Jejudo with my family when I was 15 years old. There is a reason why the trip was special to me : We went there by flight first time. The island was a beautiful place and the pace of life was still relatively slow. Also, the vast expenses of open, rolling land, and the clusters of traditional houses which still characterized many of the island’s towns and villages. Although, Jejudo is our country’s island, the culture of region was a stranger. All my family enjoyed every bit of the trip.   

After I read bout Saddom Hussein’ article on the yahoo,  I tought he is very pitiful. He always read Quran. What is he fight for? and Who is he fight for?, or Is he a  America’  secrifice? I am confused now. In fact, America have many effect on whole world including politics and  Military alliance. America  raised war of Iracq, and they catched a president of Iracq, Saddom Hussein. That was very strange. He is not Ameriaca’s president even if he made a mistake. I don’t understand about that. America has very big power. I am afraid of Amreica. They go through fire and water for their benefit of nation. We have to be  aweaken always for our country.

Really Really I’m bad. Because I well make other person do anyting becaouse I hate troublesome work.

Do you know Korea soccer team was fixed? And do you like soccer? I love soccer.

Really, I didn’t like soccer 4 years ago. I have like soccer for 4 years. Do you remember the world cup 2002. Then, Korea team advanced 8강. May be Koreans are infatuated with soccer. When Korea palyed game with other country, Most Koreans came together in front of the city hall and Everybody cheered soccer. After finished game, Most people got together because of alcohol. And another people  march on the street. Koreans were very happy. I wish once more come again at that time.

Today, Happy teacher’s day!!

I prepared one rose for Jim. Because he help me to prepare my graduation-presentation. He almost checked my English grammer and my subject body. So I counld finish it without accidents.

And he know I’m short English so, he pay careful attention me. He said ” Don’t mind your English grammer. Only Speak!! You important speaking and listening English. So, You must raise your English skill.” I was moved by him words. Because anyone don’t say me the words. Just, they afraided or ignore. So, I decided I study hard English.

Last thursday, I expressed my graduation presentation. I expressed sex and Americans. May be everybody gets nervous when they are in front of an examiner. I was very tension but, my subject may be a matter of common interest. So, monotonous mood changed about mood enjoy. So I was lacking seriousneses when many people started laughing. So, I expressed a half without tension. But if I again exprees presentation, I cannot it. May be I have a heart attack.

Have you talked with disable? At first, I talked disabled last saturday.

Last saturday, I went to a camp of theme with disabled because of a point. Vlounteer have charge of  each of disaled for safety of disabled. I met Park, Woo-Hyun. He is very bad looking and like to a horse. He talked to me many words without reserve while I think about him. Soon I asked another teacher about him. She said “ He hasn’t IQ 80 so, he is disabled. He do well everything. Just he is lack unterdstanding than other nomal students.” And  I grew more and more in love with him. He is kind-hearted and interest foreign language. So, He talked to every foreign in there. And he taught me foreign.

But, He showed signs sometimes because of me. One said “ Disabled take seriously either object of themselves love or not. So, Please honor them with your freindship.”

Really, Disabled is very poor. How long they live that way?

Anyway, This experieunce is specially to me.

I’ve spent gloomy and sad days since last week. Nothing happened to me, so I needn’t to be sad or spent tearful days, but I couldn’t calm myself. Eventually, I put off several things what I had to, and I was just sleeping. I tried to change my gloomy feelings, so I ran or listened music or went to watch movie with my friends, but my feeing wasn’t changed. It was terrible, and I wanted to hide somewhere. I started to think about problems. What’s wrong with me? Finally, I found a problem. Actually, I got stress because of my sister’s wedding. When my first sister got married two years ago, I was sad inside for few days. At that time, I wasn’t used to parting, and I realized that I am not still used to parting with my sister. I’m youngest chid in my family, so I depended on my sisters. My sisters’ wedding is good event for my home, and I’m praying for her beautiful life, but in deep mind, I’ve been afraid of being alone. It’s so stupid thought, isn’t it?

I take a class about ‘Human and Family Life’ in this semester. Last week, I studied about German Family. Geman have really different family realtionship and idea with ours, and it was so impressive to me. German parents don’t think their children as possession, and they teach their children support themselves become eighteen or nineteen.  However, Korean parents are still commanding their children telling ‘it’s for you.’ Not only parents and children relationship but also funeral rites is different. German think death in house is not good because they have to prove it wasn’t murder.  Therefore, old people go to hospital for peaceful death without family. In German, nurses care the old instead of their offsprings. I saw an article about this funeral rites in German wrote by Korean journalist. He criticized that culture, but I think that attitude is not appropriate on this situation because it is handed down culture, and even I envy the resolution of German. Compassion of Korean is good, but why don’y we set folks free from durable restrain?

 I  saw  a  movie  that  is  named  The  Chronicles  of  Narnia.   In  England,  under  World  War  Ⅱ,  a  brother  and  sister  foursome  go  to  avoid  an  air  raid  to  Degori’s  country  house.  Boring  life  continue  and  one  day  they  find  a  magic  closet.  Through  the  magic  closet,  they  enter  the  wonderful  world,  Narnia.  The  Narnia  was  made  by  Aslan  who  is  a  great  lion,  and  there  were  animals  that  can  speak  and  being  in  a  myth.  But,  Narnia  is  confined  in  constant  winter  by  a  wicked  witch.  They  fight  against  a  witch  to  rescue  the  lost  brother  and  Narnia.  After  win  a  war,  Aslan  perform  a  coronation  by  a  prediction  and   the  brother  and  sister  foursome  become  kings  who  manage  the  four  points  of  the  compass.      This  movie  was  a  childish,  but  it  gave  some  lesson.  Like  most  of  Disney  Film,   The  Chronicles  of  Narnia  made  me  aware  of  promotion  of virtue  and  reproval  of  vice,  and   love  of  family.

Months  ago,  a  tragic  accident  happened  in  Lotte  World.  Ther   is  a  ride  which  is  called  Atlantis,  a  man  fell  down  during take it and lost his life.  He  was  a  worker  who  has  worked  in  there.  That  day,  he  was  enjoying  his  vacation.  After  the  accident,  a  fact  that  is  a  safety  belt  and  bar  got  loose  become  known.  An  interested  person  said  that  he  was  likely  to  lift  the  bar  to   have a thrill  himself.  According  to  an  eyewitness  account,  however,  the  truth  is  different  from  news  and  article.  At  that  time, the  observer  was  waiting  for  his  friend  who  went  to  play  a  ride.  He  listened  a  piercing  shriek  suddenly  and  went  to  the  place.  A  man  was  crying  aloud  with  loose  his  a  safety  bar,  but  the  workers  didn’t  take  any  action.  After  all,  the  man  fell  the  Atlantis  ride  and  was  killed.  Lotte  World  is  hiding  the  truth  to  their  image  from  the  people.  But,  they  must  not  wink  about  one  person  who  worked  with  them,  and  his  life.  The  truth  will  be  out  someday.  I  pray  for  the  repose  of  his  soul.

  I took a subway going to see a friend of mine today. I usually took an express subway to Shindorim. I almost had a seat and go there  , and reading  books. on the way to there, a person who was next to me was calling  on the cell-phone. he looked like around 30 years old. it was really too loud. all people stare at him. you know, Its scene really was  exciting. It looked like a part of movie. It seemed that he was born with getting a high tone. I was reading a book at that time. i couldn’t stand it.  i would like to tell him to shut up! but I can’t do that on the spot. and then he hung up the cell phon after about 20m and got off. he really made the people irritated.

I  think we should avoid  using cellphone in public space.when the cellphone ring  in a public palce   , we should find  a quiet place to take the call. whenever we have to take the call in public, then  I think we should try to talk softly so that we don’t bother any irritated others. finally we should have etiquette at any pubiic place.

 I think nowdays many radio programs is likely to similar talk show programs, because there are a lot of gossip not music. However, I don’t like these programs. I prefer to listen a radio program that includes several music and letters. So I like a sweat music box of Jeong Ji-Young. This program sends several music and her voice fits mood of night. The favorite thing is one that there are not inviting people. So there are not a lot of gossip. This program only progress letter of listener and music. I envy her voice, because her voice has power that makes people comfortable and is very attractive. I always listen to a sweat music box when I take a stress or don’t sleep easily. It helps my mind calm down and comfortable. So I hope to recommend it for everyone. 

  I come across to see brochures. there was some imformation of the CheJu tour. It was really inexpensive. because of releasing low fare airlines,  I thought the fare was lower than any other air-lines. when i saw the ads, I would like to go. 

However, I had gone alone last year.I reminded that it was hard time to travel to there. I stayed there for a week. and  usually rode a bike and walked from place to place through the cost-road. even I went up the Hal Ra mountain. I thought that it was reckless plan before going to CheJu. however,I had great memory for my life. For example, I went to beatiful beach. I hung around with  kids. It was really interesting.and etc…

The brochurs really make me go to Cheju again.I thought that the brochurs tempted me. whenever I am free, I will go there again.  

  I saw the movie ” mission impossible III ” with my friends, because we’re interested in mission impossible I,II. We decided to see P.M 10:10 movie, but tickets were sold out. After all, we bought 12:10 tickets. We waited for three hours talking about good reviwes of internet. However, I’m very disappointed. This movie has many action scenes and uses many CG skills than former movies(I,II), but it makes me confused and decreases active. It also overstates many surroundings excessively. These surroundings make me laugh and spoil flowing of the movie. The ending scene suggested a sequel. I think that mission impossible IV will appear in the near future.

  I have a real friend who I ‘m able to share even my private secrets, the person is my sister. We always talk to each other whenever someone faces some troubles or something to interests in life etc. She could make an email friend through me a few months ago. That means I have been visiting an international site to make friends on the Internet. At that time I uploaded a few photos that I took with my sister. One guy asked me to introduce my sister after he watched the pictures. Later, they became good email friends each other.  Sometimes, my sister talks to him on the phone. The fisrt time, she wanted my help to express her own ideas, but she enjoys chatting with him wthout me.  

  Penpal is one of the best way to improve English skill, because my sister has been  interesting in the English language since she started penpal with him. Above all, I can see that she is developing her ability of writing and reading English more and more.  Suddenly, I come up with an idea that if my sister get married him, afterward maybe she will be near-native speaker of English. I hope they have a good relation wheather they get married or not.      

  I saw documentary about sleep. This documentary explained sleep is very important. It can cause bad effects, if we ignore sleeping. For example, a man who has slept 2~3 hours for over twenty  becomes insomina. He doesn’t sleep deeply and enough, because he becomes habit. So a doctor prescribed a medicine, but he still doesn’t sleep deeply and enough. This documentary insisted  that to ignore value of sleep is very dangerous. For example, people say we shorten sleep to success. However, it is very stupid, because it can threathen life. And sleeping over seven hours is very good.

  This documentary showed a experiment that 11 high-school students followed four rules. For example, sleeping over seven hours, expose to the sun over thirty minutes, regular meal, exercise over thirty minutes. The results are very surprising. Nine of eleven rise grade. They highly rise a language test. And their faces become vivid and healthy.

  I’m very surprised, it is results for only three weeks. And I decide to follow four rules, because I hope that my life becomes vivid and active.

  It’s been a long time to meet my close friends since this term started in my university. I  went and saw my friends last Sunday, at that time I believed that I’ll be exiced and happy. However, I came back my home eariler with a long face. I didn’t know why I felt depressed. On my way to home I thought step by step to find out some causes. First, I couldn’t  share with their topics and some hot issues because I hadn’t  any sympathy. When they enjoyed the time  with a big laugh, I never felt pleasure. Also, I especially realized my shabby appearance on that day. They all had a slim figure and looked splendid by wearing pretty clothes and luxury accessaries etc. Before, I used to make a boast of my friends’ good looking, but  I compared myself with them even though I didn’t wnat to do that.

  The way of thinking that I regard myself as poor and low quality is absolutely wrong. Nevertheless, I sometimes think about me like the way these days. It looks to me, I have to look up a plan to get rid of stresses and something to interest in my life. I think that one of the best methods is to learn about new field that I didn’t experienced yet.    

Everyone. I was looking at the list of names and number of posts you’ve written on the blog — I have instant access to that information — and the numbers are a little bit scary.
We started blogging in the 2nd full week of class, and you’ve been expected to write 3 posts a week every week except midterms. By my count, you should have 24 posts so far. Right now, except for one student who’s written a lot, and one student who’s taking two writing classes and is therefore posting not just here but on another blog, almost everyone is very far behind. Only one student has written the expected number of posts!

And there’s even a student who doesn’t have an account on the blog! That just doesn’t make sense, considering the number of times I’ve talked about it in class, and the fact that I mentioned, at the beginning of semester, that it would be important for your grade.
Several people have less than ten posts, and some people are still about 5 or 7 behind their expected minimum number of posts. Only ONE student has written more posts than is required. I want to remind you that grading for posts is not based on quality, but on effort. I also want to remind you that this effort is a large part of your grade. Please bear that in mind!
We only have a few more weeks for the blog to run, so please, make an effort either to catch up or keep up. Alright?

Thanks guys,

Gord

You know the day befor yesterday is parents day, I didn’t give any present to my parents. Actually I forgot that. I really reflect on my conduct. My mom had a hard time because we live with grandparents together until merely several years. She had to stand many things even though she was alright and many things what she want to do. Now she is old . I think my mom is very pride and poor, so I would like to do well and spend trip to foreign countries. And I have plan that I spend my parents foreign countries, America or Europe. I hope they live long time. And God bless them.

Did you see the article “Blaine Fails to Set Underwater Record” ? I was surprised with that.  Any way, acording to Yahoo” Blaine was trying to free himselfe from chains and handcuffs while bidding to break the record of 8 minutes,58 seconds for holding one’s breath underwater. The stunt, following a weeklong endurance challenge underwater,was televised live by ABC ” He almost died. I don’t understand why he did do that kind of thing.

 We know the earth of temperature is slowly warming and sea lefel is rising slowly , and new report say, it may happen so fast now a day. according to the report today, the antarctic is growing melt sea level 13 feet higher even that is more happen. if sea level is growing up about 20 feet. wall street in the U.S may be  submerged . It is very serious. we have to reduce  using spray,air-condition. etc… the cause of raising sea level, I think it may submerge the earthe in the future. .

I had  midterm exam for THREE weeks. Of course, I didn’t have a test everyday for that time, there was a day that I didn’t have any test, but testing, attending a class, and preparing group presentation at the same time were so difficult and stressful to me. Last Saturday, I bought a manicure light purple-colored, and polished it on my nails and toenails. My older sister said its color was so boorish and strange, and my hands with that color looked like alien, but I liked it because I like that color. Actually, I surprised that I found the light purple-colored manicure in cosmetics shop because even I had doubted whether the colored manicure would be solding now. A moment ago, I removed the manicur on my nails, but it was helpful for changing my cheerless mood. Knowing what my treat is good to live again with happy mind and positive thinking.

When I walk around or take a subway, even in my university, I can often see foreigners who are from different countries. Sometimes, I greet to them and address lightly. Frankly, however, I hesitate against the black without reason. Even though they don’t speak any words to me, I keep away by only their skin. I always think some people can’t great than other people, but I don’t know why I can’t take generous attitude against the black when I meet them. Strangely, my action is contradictory to my words.

According to the dictionary, plagiarism is the act of plagiarizing of the idea, phrase, story etc. that has been plagiarized. In the large society, it is not easy to prohibit the plagiarist from plagiarizing. Also, some may insist that can be recreate as a great work through plagiarism. Individually, but, I opposite it. When I even write a short essay. I try to write my opinion, feeling, and attitude so on. In addition, I rewrite my essay any number of times in order to express my idea on subject. Indeed, when someone does something, there is just his/ her effort and unobtainable result. The result can’t be a great product as another person rewrites or takes a copy. The most recent, there is many problems by indiscrimnate plagiarism. It need to reconsider about right attitude on it and legal action that has to take strong action against plagiarists. 

 English is an official language in the world. Therefore, English has been holding an important position and becoming an essential course of study in several countries. It is also a vital element of national power. As above, English is became a part of our life, so we must have critical view about English as a global language. I will look into the causes and effects of having english as a global language through merits and demerits. The world is becoming smaller. It means that the world have a deep stake and a big communication : government, economy, society, culture and so on. This interchange is based on language, so English is important as a global language. First, we can communicate a commercial transaction and a correspondence through the Internet. It means that get the highest state of efficiency with the minimum of labor. It also reduces a waste of time and gives every facility. Second, having a good ability of English specially enhances state economy. Not only a large enterprise but also small and medium enterprises can have trade relations freely with foreign firms. Human resources can make inroads into foreign market in several fields. These produce national interests and qualitative growth. Third, we can communicate society and culture of each country easily. We sometimes have prejudices and misunderstanding about different society and culture. However, we can overcome these obstacles through conversation. Addition, we can widen our mental vision by cultural exchange. On the other hand, English sometimes bring about side effects. First, English is only the second language in Korea because we have mother language. Therefore, if English becomes an official language, many people must learn English purposely. Moreover, English will become essential progress of study like Korea, then it causes competition. Second, mother language may disappear if English occupy a high importance. Recently, Korea have serious problems because of the younger generation. They well speak and write english but Korean’s vocabulary ability is very poor. Also, they even go wrong spelling. These problems can cause loss of each country’s characteristics and identities.  English has a lot of advantages to the globalization age. However, use of blind English causes loss our identity. As a result, we must assume a critical attitude toward English. 

It is a heavy rain today. rainy day like farmer. and  I seated and looked out  of window. I though of doing five years from now.

I described in my heart after doing five years from now.  I will be working in the U.S. I also expect that I will have a good job after graduation. I am studying so hard to make my dream come true because I am very sincere. I am studying  english deligently every day so that I can communicate actively with people who speak in English.  I am stable friends who are now studying. I put an great effect into study spoken english these days. five years from now. I expect that I will have achieved to work in the U.S. My goal is to work in Air-lines in the U.S. 

When I told with foreigners, my head was whiting. May be I’m very tense but English is my majoring. So I have many chanceso of talking foreigners’ teacher. As like the state of things is dangerous to me.

May be I think I don’t aptitude in English. But I’m interest English learning; I think this something is only process of learning English. 

   I often felt that I want to go out of campus and travel to other countries by train. did i feel because the weather is nice ? It is spring. Flower blossomed. It seemed that it had effect on  nice weather. but  I don’t feel better these days.Graduation Ceremony  is getting close to me. what is graduation pressure ? It really make me mad. I didn’t prepare for entering job at all. I understood how I didn’t study hard for the 6 years. I thought if I live without any plans in my life. there will be no change in my life. I think  something happen in my life. so I made up my mind to wake up at 4 and begin  a day! Its plan had already started on May 1st. It  was  really hard time.  It’s  the 4th days. yesterday was hard time for me. but, although my biorhythm feel unrest, I can stand and persevere in my efforts. No pain no gain.
