I subscribe to the book named “Positive thinking.�? This book contains narrative of someone’s experiences, Greek mythology, old stories and the latest information and so on. I don’t remember that when I read this book first, but one day I read a story in this book and I was very impressed. The story about family is especially put in this book. So, since I read this book, I have been thinking about my family more and have known that family is the most important than others. So, reading stories like that warms my heart. At first, I only read this book but now my family is reading this book. I’m going to send my story to “Positive thinking�? sooner or later. I confidently recommend you this book.

A few days ago, I met a foreign person in the subway. He was reading a Korean book and he repeated some words looking into the book. The words he read were very easy to me but he scratched his head over and over again. I was reading “Today’s English expression.�? In the free newspaper “Metro.�? Suddenly, seeing my newspaper he smiled and me too. From then, we got talking together. He was from San Francisco and he said now he is teaching English in the Gyeonggi University. He said his father is the Spanish but his mother is American, so his last name is somewhat strange. But I can’t remember his name. We enjoyed talking so we didn’t know his destination was approached. Finally, he passed his destination. After we got off the subway, I told him the way to get on subway and we went our ways. Although it is very short, we had a great time.

Today I climbed up the Gwanak Mountain. When I arrived at the entrance of the mountain, there were so many people there because today was a legal holiday. My friend and I bought something to eat and started to go up. At first, our climbing went smoothly but as time goes by, it turned bad. As we climbed up, we didn’t know which way is right. So, we decided to ask people. A climber told us that if you go straight ahead along this way you will gain the summit of the mountain, but if you go another way you will have fun. Then he recommended the latter and showed another way. We decided to follow his recommend. However, it was our serious mistake! We lost the way, finally we took the wrong way but we barely managed to gain the top of the mountain after a lot of trouble. As soon as I arrived at the top of the mountain, I admired the mountain scenery. Wow! It’s beautiful! I sat on the rock and enjoy the scenery and feel a cool wind for a long time. I want to feel today’s happiness again!

I think breast-feeding is good for babies and mothers. It is well known that breast-fed babies are healthier than other babies. It is also helpful to raise babies’ immunity, so breast-fed babies are not likely to get sick easily. However, today many mothers don’t breast-feed their babies. Instead, mothers feed babies powdered milk, but it’s not safe for babies. Mother’s milk bonds together between moms and babies. Therefore, babies feel stable while they suck the mother’s milk and it makes them happy emotionally. I think even though breast-feeding gas decreased, it will increase more and more in the future for babies’ health.

When we watch the movie we often see many scenes that actors smoke cigarettes. Moreover, these scenes have increased recently and have been important scenes in the general movie as well as gangster movie. Some people are being against smoking in the movie, and they also insist that if our kids see those scenes, they will imitate them. Therefore, many children are influenced by smoking scenes and it makes children smoke early. Besides, in these days, women and even children smoke in the movie. A kid can not smoke legally but it is working in the movie by name of acting. A kid must not grab a cigarette! Movie as a mass media has a powerful influence in this modern society. If we watch movie illustrated with smoking continuously, someday we will be insensible of it. I’m anxious about it.

Today I came across an interesting letter in my old letter box while I was searching something. It’s a love letter written by my friend in 1996. That letter looks so shy and it reminded me of him. He and I lived in same village. So, every morning we used to go to school together, and it was very happy time to me. Although we are very young, we know that we match well. His smile is so cute and I can remember it. However, one day I had to change my school so we were estranged each other. After I went to the new school I haven’t got along with friends. Whenever I do that, I wanted to see my friend. I wish to see his smile. One day, I got a letter from him. I fell into a flutter. I opened an envelope and read it. There are sentences at the bottom of the letter. “I’m missing you. But I know we can meet frequently… If you will go far away than now, I can promise you. You are my best friend.�?

However, I quickly recover my composure. I tried to do eye contact and to soothe my nerves. Somehow, I finished my presentation. I hope to see good result.

I have a keen nose. So, if my mother cooks some food, I can know what food is. Because my nose is too sensitive, so it I have a bad habit of smelling food anytime anywhere. Whenever I do that, my father cautions me not to smell any kinds of food. My father told me that if someone saw it, especially in front of older people, they will think that I lack courtesy. But this habit is not corrected easily because I unconsciously smell everything. Fortunately, this habit has lessened than the past. Do I get rid of this bad habit?

I always listen to music in subway when I go to school and get back home. It’s my pleasure and a part of my daily life. But I have one problem. It is just that all earphones I bought have broken before I enjoy music. From January to now, I have been changing my earphone six times. Among this broken earphone, two is chewed by my dog. But why have my four earphones broken? I don’t know, so I confused that whether I buy my earphone again or not. Now, I’m listening to music through only one side earphone. Oh…My head turns round and round.

The weekend is a rest time and a peaceful day to me. I usually sleep for a long time in my bed and get up rather late about 1PM on weekends. Then I have brunch and spend most of my time watching TV. However, this weekend was very different from other days because I spent a satisfactory time. Last Friday, I visited my friend’s subscription concert held in Hong-Ik University. My friend is a lead singer in her group in this concert. She told me that today’s performance would be fantastic, so I expected her to sing. The curtain was raised and she came into sight. The first song was “It’s raining men.” It was terrific and other songs were also gorgeous! When the concert was over, a audience, myself included, applauded their passionate performance and clapped for a long time. I was proud to have this friend. Last Saturday I went to an exhibition in the Seoul Art Center. I’m interested in arts, so when I knew this, I asked my friend to go there together. When we arrived, there were many people wanting to see public performances and galleries. The atmosphere there was very distinctive. The lighting, especially, helped to bring the displays into relief. It was clear that many artists put a lot of effort into these works. We took many pictures in commemoration of visit there. After that we entered Krispy Kreme Doughnut and talked about what we felt for a long time. Of course, the weekend is a good time to relax. However, if we waste away our valuable weekend, there will be nothing left to us. Therefore, sometimes we have to have the time to enjoy the weekend. It might be better to spend time usefully than loaf at home. In this view, my...
