I think most of you are preparing TOEIC. Did you get a good score? Of course, you know TOEIC was changed in May. Many people said it’s more difficult than before, so I worry. Because even before it changed, I didn’t get a high score. Maybe I have to strive to get a high score, so after finished final exam, I’m going to start to study TOEIC. I already took a class. I hope I will get a high score. 

 In 19th century, in America, there were cruel acts to slavery, especially The Fugitive Slavery Act. That was whoever see a run-away slave, they must return slaver to his or her owner. It was a law against humanity. Before this year, there was a tragic event that Congress pass Indian Removal Act , allowing Jackson to relocate eastern Indians west of Mississippi. So Indians was forced to be exiled, and sometimes they were killed without any guilty. Through these two historical events, as America established tremendous achievement, America politician’s viewpoint to aliens, foreigners also tremendous cruel. Today, America drives out country Which is  against, or show different opinion to America. Americans believe, and insist “all men are created equal”. But their attitude of others isn’t fair. this is irony of America.  I think America need to be more mutual, and have ability to find peaceful diplomacy.

I went to see my dentist this afternoon because of my wisdom tooth. Have you ever suffered from wisdom tooth? It makes me crazy! My dentist said, there is no problem in my wisdom tooth, but I wanted to kill the pain, so she prescribed pain killer for me. Now, I’m okay, but I wasn’t okay few hours ago,so today, I didn’t do anything because of the pain. I hope I will be okay tommorrow without taking pain killer.

Do you have any plan for summer vacation? Maybe it’s not proper time to talk about summer vacation because final exam is coming. But it’s really happy to think about vacation, isn’t it? In my case, I don’t have any special plan. Actually, I was supposed to travel to Australia and Japan, but I didn’t earn enough money, so I have to stay in Korea. But I will try to make vacation not gloomy. It will be boring, but I hope it won’t.

 Last week, I read a book, Bartleby the Scrivener : A Story of Wall-Street” (1853). It was written by Herman Melville, and literally title came to me it was story about a scrivener in wall street. Narrator was a elderly lawyer, and he had four employee- two boys, same age of narrator, and Bartleby. They had vigorous personality, but Bartleby was the most unusual among them. First time, he worked passionately, however, a few days later, he would say “I would prefer not to.” when the boss gave his  quotas. Besides,  one day narrator recognized he had lived in his office, because he didn’t have any shelter. Later, Bartleby was moved a prison as accommodation. But in there, he refuged to eat anything, finally, he died a miserable death. No one could not tell his family, hometown, his backgrounds. This story, what could tell us ? Just a story about a crazy man’s life? Many other writers have tried write this kind of story, a man with miserable life. Whenever we live in a certain age, we met this man, we meet this man, we will meet this man. I think Herman Melville wanted to tell us it is worth thinking of this man one time, and he was also one of members of our society.

 These days are almost sunner. I liked sunshine of spring, so I don’t like summer’s coming. There are some reason why I hate summer. First, summer is very hot. Sometimes it makes me tired. Second, there are many mosquitoes in summer. I hate bugs, especially mosquitoes. Last, during the rainy season, the percentage of humidity is high. This hot weather is continued until August. I hope this summer less hotter than last year.

 

 I have a tumbler. I bought it at Starbucks. Actually, this is my 3rd tumbler. The first one was broken last winter. I used the second one just for five days. I made a resolution to never buy a tumbler again. However, when I went to the Starbucks, I saw many tumblers, and it shakes mine resolution. Last month, I bought this 3rd one, and I hope that I use this one for a long time.

 

We watched the movie on Thursday at 1 pm in CGV. At that time, nobody watched the movie except us. So only three people in movie theater. It was my first time to see a movie just with my friends. We felt that the theater was like our house, big home theater. We laughed so loudly, and talked about the movie during watching the movie. It was a special experience to me.

There seems to be a controversy over building a new airport in Berlin. Many aviation industries especially in Europe are looking forward to the fact that there will be a well – functioned airport. Although in Germany, some people are worried about having a new airport because there are already major airports such as Frankfurt and Munich air ports, I agree with the notion that setting a new airport in a different area.

 Over the past few years, aviation industry has been losing their revenue in terms of several reasons. In the many reasons that I’d like  to mention that this industry hasn’t develope its service over customers compared to automobile business. while automobile industry has been struggling to improve its products quality and service, aviation market hasn’t done remarkably important works such as reducing air ticket price or better service in the airport. Such those conditions, the aviation industry needs a refresher in order to change the mood of declining industry. There are a few good services in aviation industry such as air mileage, VIP service in airport, or pick up service. However, there are many inconvenient matters when customers are boarding a plane, or spending time in airport. Compare to how much money customers spend on their air tickets and using for the airport, provided service are not good. For example, there are many cases about delaying planes. When it happen passengers can’t help but wait. They even don’t know how long they wait for the plane. Furthermore, setting up a new airport could cut down some wasting time such as lining up for check- out because its capacity would be bigger.  In this regard, building a brand new airport is necessary.

 Therefore, planning  to construct a new airport is required not only for Germany, but also for entire aviation business. From this plan, the whole aviation market could expect a boosting its profits, and also could approach to customers as more efficiently.

 These days, i often thought ‘where is my my house in the future?’ Then, today environmental disease have been increased too fast.

I met my best friend at luxuary buffet in a hotel yesterday. I was very pleased to see my friend after a long time. There was better place to eat lunch. I enjoyed exotic meals. I could make the best choices for myself. I also could get abundant service. The buffet had a fine view and favorably located. It was easy to find, and it was a great place to try new special things. There was perfect place for meetings, or special accasions, but the price was too high for the commons. However I liked such fascinating atmosphere. It made me happy. This reason was why I liked to go there.

When Korea held the Olympics in 1988, people set one hundred pigeons free. After that, pigeons became a problem destroyed city environment. First, their excretion spoils the beauty of the city, especially, parks. It’s too much, so people can’t clean. Second, there are many pigeons which are infected with heavy metals. It can be infectious and fatal to people. Third, they infiltrate grain markets to get feed. They cause damage to grain dealers.  

Did you realize that our country students are really smart?>
The newspaper said that Korea;s junior high school students are ranked among the best in the world in mathematic, a U.S. reports showed on Friday. According to the report compiled by the U.S. Department of Education, Korea students aged 14 received an average of 589 on a 1000 point scale in mathematics in 2003, second only to Singaporean students whose score was 605. The U.S. report was based on a survey presented by the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study which analyzed and compared  acadimic performances by junior highschool students in 45 counrties including 30 members of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. I was thought that Korean students are smart, but I thought it was just my own thought. So I was really surprised by this news.

I went to the Seoul Forest last weekend. The place was the forest with a lot of trees and flowers. I was impressed to see this kind of place in the middle of Seoul. Because I always thought Seoul is too busy place with many buildings and cars, I was glad to see the nature which was beautiful. The most interesting part was that I rode a bicycle. I had so much fun. If you want to go on a picnic with your family or friends and take a rest, I highly recommend the Seoul Forest.  

Final exam is going to start soon. Maybe our library is going to be crowded, and it will be noisier than before. In this situation we try to act more carefully. But some people don’t do that. They interrupt people’s concentration. First, they use their cell phone too much. Of course most people sometimes use their sell phone at library. But they don’t put it on the desk, and they don’t make any sound. Second, they deal with books too tough. For example, when they turn a page, it’s harsh to the ears. Finally, they talk to their friends. They think it’s not noisy, and they talk very low. But that’s not, so we have to try to make a good circunstance at library.
