Elementary Composition – Night

 We can talk that drinking is good for us. But we must think about overdrinking. Sometimes we go to a bar for icebreaking or appeasing stress. I think too many university student go to a bar a lot. And fit drinking is very good.  But after we drink over and over, problem might start. Sometimes we may talk bad language each other and it may expand fight. When we drink too much, we can’t control our body. And we may vomit. The worst case, we might fall anywhere. Have you ever seen someone on the side street? If you aren’t careful, you will become like that. Therefore alcohol can make good atmosphere, but it sometimes might get bad ending.

Someone drink alcohol for removing depression but people drink alcohol more for social reason than for personal reason in Korea. Korean have many party for each troup and people tempted drinking alcohol by his friends or co-worker. What is more worst, although they have many task almost every Korean go to drinking.

 Reason of this situation is that social relation ship is important thing for Korean. Korea was agriculture society so they need  someone who work with them easily. In this society, cooperation is important thing.

 Like this, society background make imprtant thing that social relation ship to us.

We can explan why people drinking for social reason.

Everyone, I want to make sure you understand what I said in class when I said that you should use paragraphs. So I’m going to use some Latin text. The meaning of the text doesn’t matter: just the layout, the format. Okay? Just look at how it’s organized and you’ll see what I mean.

Here’s an example of what you SHOULD NOT do when writing a paragraph:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.

Nam volutpat feugiat massa.

Integer et mauris.

Donec malesuada mi eget est.

Morbi tortor est, rhoncus eu, placerat sit amet, ultrices vel, enim.

Duis vulputate.

Nullam blandit arcu vitae quam.

Donec vel augue quis enim blandit rutrum.

And here’s an example of what you SHOULD do when writing a paragraph:

The first example isn’t a paragraph. It’s just a bunch of sentences one by one, which is NOT what I am asking you to write. The second example is of two nicely written paragraphs. Of course, you can’t really indent on this blog, but normally the second paragraph would be indented, if you were printing this text to hand in as homework.

Does that help?

Did you drinking? How many? Bad happenings can happen to you after drinking. For example, car accident can happen to you , when you get dead-drunk. Also, time-wasting and money-wasting aren’t other person’s story. Maybe, you’ll be wasting your time and money because of alcohol, when you don’t recognize. Be careful!! And be careful!!

  There are people who like or dislike the alcohol in Korea. Then why do people drink the alcohol? It is due to expectation to taste felt sentiment when drinking to be the biggest among drinking psychological reasons. That is, they shall drink to experience it by expectation about psycholigical effect of ‘They can relax tension.’,'They can get rid of stress.’ etc. The most common reason which people drink is to get rid of stress. Because it is one of the easiest way that get rid of stress which occur in complex and hard a social life. However They will be under great stress in body preferably if they drink too much.

  We can also find reasons to drink in socio-cutural level. There is a possibility becoming the reason which the inducement of the friends or the colleagues has a drink. Specially Korea must swig a drink even if they don’t have an inclination because alcohol is a barrier of socialization and everybody make much account of a drinking party. Also alcohol is used a courtesy thing to plan union of group. we can see it is used with the way which plans a friendship from the various meeting and job.    

there are some reason why many Korean students drink alcohol.

Many student have stress when they was highschool student.

Because their parents and teachers exact to be great man and want to go top-class univ.

When they go to univ, senior exact to freshman that drink alcohol.

sometimes I see death who drink alcohol in univ.(on news)

but alcohol makes higher friendship.

If we are drunken, we are frank!!

Also wine is good for high blood pressure patients~

anyway, alcohol is good.

 Alcohol is very attractive drink, but alcohol is bad. Most people already know it.

First, Many people death because alcohol. Alcoholic and dead person of liver cancer.

Also drunk driving is big social problem.

Second, we are thrown up our plan by alcohol. After day of the alcohol day we can’t remember about almost yesterday’s things. We have a headache, are heavy with sleep, lose the will to work. Maybe it is rare that person have a clear mind After day of the alcohol day.

Finally alcohol make our figure is more heavy. We eat much oily food over the bowl.

Chicken, popcorn, franks are almost alcohol’s partner. Also they are an enemy of diet. What most of people drink alcohol in the evening make fatter us.

  Alcohol leads to some problem to almost every people without regard to drink. In habitual drinkers’ case, they suffer from a hangover every next mornig after drink. Also, they spend a lot of money on alcohol, so it cause money wasting eventually.  In addition, they waste a lot of time on drinking. In Korea, most parties with alcohol go on up to late at night. It makes people difficult to turn back to their daily life quickly. Another serious problem is alcoholism. People want to drink more to console their feeling or just enjoy the etmosphere.  However, habitual drinkers need to be careful, because their overloving for drink makes them addictive. Time and money comsuming, hangover and alcoholism are problems of drinker, but alcohol infulences to people who don’t drink never. For example, a drunken driver hit a person with innocent sometimes. This car accident would kill blameless people or fatal wound. Therefore, people must keep a look out for drinking alcohol because it has some negative things.

People drink so much alcohol because of themselves as well as others. People sometimes get drunken when they are depressed. Perhaps many people agree that alcohol could comfort and sympathize with them like a good friend. In the mean time, people often drink for social life as well. Some of them want their friends to drink as much as they do even if the friends do not feel like it. And the friends do not want to or are not able to ignore the peer pressure, either. Plus, others want to enjoy cheerful atmosphere at parties, or they have to drink because they are at the parties.

For example, if new employees come to the department of companies, it is highly possible to have a party. Also, at the beginning and end of the year, they hold a party very often for celebration.

In addition, when Korean workers have a drinking time, their collegues make them drink more. In general, most of them have a tendency to drink a lot until they become completely drunk. In this situation, collegues may give them any pressure to drink more. They, who are very drunk and want to go back to home, don`t reject it and are tempted to have a second, third drinking time.

It seemed to me like maybe I was less clear than I thought about the homework I assigned in class, so I’m going to explain it very clearly here. If you have any questions, please leave a comment with the question and I’ll answer it. Sorry this took so long but I had to reinstall Linux on my computer. Windows was killing it.

Okay, so…

Tonight we worked on creating topic sentences for each “category” in the Mind Map/idea bubble network. You created a topic sentence for one part of the map, and started to created other sentences for each of the ideas or items in the category. For example:

There are many kinds of alcohol which are popular among Korean students.  Beer is very common, because it’s cheap. Soju is also common, especially among male students. Wine isn’t so popular, but some people enjoy it. And students with a lot of money to spare sometimes drink whiskey or other strong alcohol.

In the  example above, the topic sentence is in bold, but you don’t need to do that. (You can if you like, if you think it helps, but for now, the topic sentencewill usually be the first sentence in the paragraph, so it’s not usually necessary.)

As for your “homework”, this week you will need to make 2 blog postings, right? So, your next blog post should be the paragraph you started to work on in class, on one of the topics related to alcohol.

Your second blog post of the week should be created in a similar way, but using one of the mind-maps that you worked on before, during the last week.

(Please bear in mind that when I say “homework”, it’s not always something that gets “handed in” during class. Some homework is for a mark, and some homework helps you prepare for the big assignments that will come later on. This week’s homework is mostly the second kind… I won’t collect or mark it, but you need to do it if you want to be able to do what we will be working on next week, and the week after, and so on.)

Any questions?

Hi~ I’m in library now. Because my English & literature class was canceled. So I came in here to spend my free time. By the way as I looking over this cite, I could find comments in my last post. I deeply appreciate those people who wrote comment to my post!! And I saw a gord’s notice. I’m sorry to hear that news. I’ll had better change class time on monday. Ah! Suddenly I remember what I should do. I have to borrow books because I made a promise my sister at last night. She likes reading something so she wants to read many books. I must keep that promise. And see U class time~

Thank you for giving me the chance for this class.

My name is tae kwang lee. I was born in 1981 as the youngest of the family. 

My hobbies are swimming, playing the ski, watching the movie, and reading novels.

I think I have a sociable character.

most of all,  I want to put up my ability to harmonize with an organization.

But I also like to spend some time to think alone from time to time.

Last week, there were various events, such as the national success of a Korean baseball team. The new week begins from today. I think all of you will have to do a lot of assignments, presentation, and group work soon. I also will be busy with some schoolwork. Even though they may give me a stressful feeling, I would love to concentrate on them actively, positively. I hope you can make an energetic, happy week , forgetting a stressful memory of last week which haunts you if perhaps you have something like that.  P.S. I am wondering what kinds of Joke a humorous professor, gord is going to give us in today`s class. Maybe it will be utterly funny.

Korea and Singapore settled on Free Trade Agreement last year. And it will be in effect this summer. Would that benefit Korea’s economy recovery. Would that helpful or harmful? The reade transaction between Korea and Singarpore is not big as much as U.S or China. As comare with the other country, transaction between Korea and Singapore is too small. Although the FTA is in effect, it cannot give any significant influence on Korea economy as much as I can calculating whether it’s helpful or not.

Do U like comic books? I love comic books~♡ What kind of comic books do u like?

I start to read the comic book when I was 11 years old. I think I read “dragonball” first.

I had been crazy for comic books until I was high school student. So I didn’t study at all and my grade was so bad. I think my mom doesn’t want me to read comic books now and forever.^^;

I can’t stop reading comic books forever.!!!

But  I can’t read books well because there is no 책방 nearby my home.ㅠㅠ

Hi everyone. I know I asked you to check this blog for an announcement about a class time change for our class.

I have some good news, and some not-so-good news. Which would you like to hear first? I guess maybe the good news first will be best: I found out that it is possible to change time. We can do it, IF we are sure that ALL students can attend at the new time.

Which brings me to the not-so-good news: we need to make sure that there’s no schedule problem for ANYONE who is attending the class, including students who were not in class on Wednesday. So I am going to ask the class two more times if there is anyone who has a problem with a schedule change for Monday. I’ll ask Monday and Wednesday this week, and if nobody has a problem, then I think we can move the class time.

So this means that for this week, there is no change in Monday’s classtime. I’ll see you all at 8:45pm this Monday, March 20th, okay?

It was my birthday the day before yesterday. But I was very busy because I had to get ready to make the speech. At that time, there was a party in the department of English Language and Culture. I wanted to stay longer but I had to leave early because I had another meeting. When I was about to leave there, my school mates went to see me off to the station. Suddenly, “happy birthday Mi-yeon~” and another my friends showed up, holding a cake and present in their hands. I was very surprised by them. I was so happy. The present was a wristwatch. It was so pretty. 

Hi~ guys~ How are you today?  I am really bad. Because I had a cold and a little fever. The worse thing, this cold will be worse. But I can’t see a doctor. Because my parents really don’t like medicine. When I asked for money to parents, they said. “You’d better stand. Medicine is bad for you.” And they didn’t give some money. It’s terrible~!! And even our baseball team lost in this game~! It made me worse. Today is truly gloomy sunday to me. Anyway should be careful cold~! And see you next time. I wish I became get better. Bye~
