The weather was really nice today. So I went to sangdong lake-park with my friends. The flowers along the streets were beautiful. I took some pictures and I took my picture, too. I rode a bicycle and my friends rode inline skating. After came back home, I attached my pictures in Internet bloge. The pictures came out well.We had a good time.
I like shopping. When I felt depression, I go shipping. But if I don’t have enough money, I go window-shopping. Particularly, I like to show a pretty earring. Sometimes it is very dangerous, because I want to buy it more and more. Or it tempts me by having bargain sale. I often get exited about percentage they are saving rather then the amount I am spending. Of course, after I bought it, I suffered from money matter. Shopping is not easy. Do you like shopping as me?
I’d like to talk about my unforgettable vacation. When I was a second grade in Elementary school, our family and all relatives of ours went to Juju Island for a vacation. We had great time there, we ate lots of seafoods, and played in the sand everyday. However, the thin that made this vacation unforgettable wasn’t that great.
One day of the vacation, we took a boat for going to a small Island named Bam Island. That was a really small Island, so even it didn’t have a sand beach.
Then we started to swim, because we couldn’t play in the sand. When I was swimming, I suddenly got a cramp in my leg, so I just kept falling into the water and was struggling to get out. When my dad saw me in this situation, he thought I just played at for fun. Because he knew that I swam well. He pointed at me, and said, “Look at her, she is playing it like real!! That’s funny!” Then he began to laugh loudly. However, when my mom saw me, she immediately sensed that I wasn’t playing around. She jumped into the water. Even her swimming was worse than mine, and finally she rescued me. Until now, I never forgot that my daddy just laughed loudly at that time.
When I was a middle school student, I went to the English institute for studying English conversation, and I met an English native teacher for the first time. Unlike these days, there were not many foreigners in Korea at that time. Having a conversation with foreigners seemed an adventure to me. I still remember my first native teacher vividly. She was tall and had a nice figure with her blonde hair. To a young boy like me, she was just so beautiful, and it was so interesting that the beautiful foreigner spoke some foreign language. However, after a while, no matter how beautiful she was, my interest to speak English was disappearing. It wasn’t fun anymore, because whatever she said I couldn’t understand at all. I just couldn’t understand her pronunciation and accent. It was totally different with other Korean teachers who taught English at school. Because I understood less and less, I spoke less and less. In spite of her trying to understand me and help me to speak English, I started to doze off after all. When my interest to speak English was almost gone, I began to think like this, “Is it really necessary for me to learn English in this way? I won’t go abroad and have a test for English conversation at school.” After that, I moved to the other institute for studying some subjects of the entrance examinations. That was the end of my first English conversation lesson. It was fun, but I hadn’t enough basic knowledge about English to keep studying it.
After time passed, I entered the university and chose English for my major. As a result of my major, I took many classes to study with native teachers. But the problem was I barely spoke English, so I started to keep silent again in the classroom. Most of my classmates felt it was difficult to listen and speak in English, but there were always some students who had a great conversation with a teacher. I really envied them and wanted to be like them, too. One day, therefore, when the class began, I decided to talk about something to the native teacher after class, but I failed after all to talk. I was too timid to say something. I guess I didn’t have enough confidence. Now I’m doing much better, but I still sometimes feel nervous to talk to native teachers. I’ve studied English since I was in middle school, nonetheless I’m not good at speaking and listening in English.
I guess, however, the attraction of learning English is that the harder I study, the more fun I have.
(This writing is the assignment from other class. But I put lots of efforts on this, and I think this is quite well done. This one is I translated other studdent’s writing in Korean to English. So, I’d like to share it with you guys.

Last Sunday, I visited an old people’s home for doing volunteer work. It was a task from the chapel class. A hundred of grandmas and forty grandpas were living there. Many of them are not able to move on their own, so they needed to be helped. I helped seven grandmas to take a bath then cleaned up the whole floor. It was hard than I expected. However, even though I was totally exhausted when I got home, but it was worthwhile.
TV helps to develop social or artistic judgment. And it services a program about a working knowledge. For example, it introduce a good book, food, and Health care, people showing news are able to know the world and we have experience of indirect. But it can be avoid a book. News or movies are more enjoyable than turning the pages of a newspaper or a book. And it can be wasted the time because people watched TV for a long time. once you hold the remote control, you cannot put it down easily. You can be addicted by TV. For example, though you try to study in mind, you like to watch it more and more. If I don’t watch TV, sometime I become outsider. We often buy unnecessary because of many advertisement of TV. Watching TV is bad for health because it cause eye-train, and physical fatigue. Finally, children can watch adult TV. It will affect children’s emotion.
Yesterday was election day, but I didn’t vote. I know very well how important voting is because I have learned the importance of right to vote. It was the first time for me to have a chance to vote, but there were no one I want to vote for. I dislike all politicians. What do they do? I really don’t know. Candidates should have a plastic surgery and try to look nice. The reason many young people vote is not they really support them. It’s because they want to confirm their right. So politician should care for themselves because it’s most important fact to catch young people’s votes.
Today, I spent most of the day with a makeup on my face because I had a part time job. After the day was over, I cleaned my face and showed that big, big pimple break out my face. Oh…. I squeezed it. I fear pimples. In order to expel fear, I read many books about skin and pimple. In some book, a dermatologist, or skin doctor says that a lot of these pimples may actually be caused by fear. According to studies, college students are more likely to break out pimples before a big exam. The key to clear skin may all be in my mind. But I fear pimples….
