[Post 23] Novel.

Now I like to read various books, and particularly, I like to read novels. Novel makes me happy, and it allows me to places myself and imagine the things in the book. It is almost like dreaming while I'm awake, or traveling to a different place. When I read a book, The Reader, which has a background of Germany, I could feel the atmosphere of German city, even though I have never been there. It gives the kind of pleasures like looking at pictures in picture books. Moreover, novel makes me more intelligent. There are a lot of truths in novels about human nature and culture. And novels help me see things from new perspectives. I believe that having a variety kinds of perspectives in our life enables me have confidence myself. Therefore, I love to read NOVEL.

[Post 22] My favorite place to study.

When I was a middle and high school student, I just liked to hang out with my friends, so I could not pay attention to study no longer than even one hours. Even more, I had thought that studying was not my aptitude and always boring. However, I realized that sometimes studying can be interesting, and at the same time, library is my favorite place to study hard. Studying at home has a lot of temptations to overcome in order to study well. For example, if I watch TV for a break, I often spend too much time sitting there. And sometimes I cannot resist the urge to sleep. In addition, all students at the library are studying very hard. It motivates me and I gain a lot of energy from them. So I cannot be lazy!

[Post 21] My sweet Dessert!

Sweet dessert has special meaning to me. I do not like to eat too many foods, and I sometimes have no appetite. On the other hand, I always desire for some sweet dessert such as cheese cake, cinnamon roll, and chocolate ice cream. Furthermore, I like baking some kinds of cookie, brownie, and cake, because I can release stress by baking. For example, when some of my family, friends, or others, who try to eat my desserts, say that mine is delicious and tasty, then I am pleased myself and at the same time reduce stresses. And I also enjoy my desserts and encourage my life be more energetic. For those, I love my sweet dessert.

[Post 20] Private should be PRIVATE!

I believe that everyone should have rights to keep their  private life. It is true that there is no secret, however, the secret might be a confidential to someone. For example, I can tell some of my secrets to my best friend, but that does not need to be known by my biology instructor or so. In addition, in terms of characteristics of the Internet, anybody can search everything they want. For those reasons, this event was happened. However, in my opinion, Mr. Clementi, the two neighborhood students, and the housing office of the school should charge with this event. I believe that those kinds of severe circumstances cannot be happened by one person. Therefore, we need to pay more attention to keep other's private, and even more, we should do right our self!

[Post 19] Online Shopping.

I love to shopping, and even more, I prefer to go shopping on the on-line. Online shopping allows me to save a lot of time and trouble. I do not need to go to the store far away. In particular, since I have lived in Alabama, I have gotten used to online shopping, because there are not various clothing shops in this state. However, all I need to go online shopping is just access to the computer and several clicks of a mouse to shop. I believe that nothing is easier than this. In addition, it is very efficient way to shopping. I can compare all the shops and prices in a very short time, and decide the item that perfectly fits my desire. One that made this possible is merchandisers show their products in detail. Not only that, I do not need to carry them home myself, since they deliver the things to buyer's house. For those reasons, I like online shopping!!

[Post 18] What do you think about the JOB?

I believe that job is one of the major factors that influence one's happiness. There are other major considerations for a happy life such as family, marriages and health. A happy job is equal to them in its value. If one dislikes his work, one's happiness will fall short of the ideal one. Furthermore, job goes along with one through most of one's life. If it relates him/her temporarily, one dare endure the unhappiness in the work area. But we confront it every day. Therefore, it is essential that he/she must like their job to be happy in life. For this, I would like to be a chief manager at an advertising agency to live a joyful life.

[Post 17] Last Christmas.

I have lived in Greenville for about one and a half years with my parents. I have two sisters, but they could not come to the United States because of their job. So, my sisters came to New York last Christmas season to meet me and parents and take a trip. Even more my aunt, uncle, and cousins have lived there, so it was also great time to have family reunion. Traveling New York with my sisters was an unforgettable memory in my life, because it was the first time to travel with only my two sisters! I and my sisters went to museums, ate so tasty foods, watched a music performance, and went to shopping a lot. My father supported all of the money we spent there, so three sisters enjoyed a lot. Furthermore, one of my cousins hosted a new year's party, so we went there and met many friends. I believe that it couldn't be better than any other days!

[Post 16] My hometown, SEOUL.

I was born in Seoul, Korea, which has been a capital city in South Korea and the largest city. There are many attractions and sightseeing places. For example, N Seoul Tower, which is located at the center of Seoul, provides people to see the night scape. And, one of the houses of Korean king, which have historical meanings and structures, is another famous attraction. You may enjoy the splendid, and at the same time, sophisticated buildings. Furthermore, public transportation are well-organized everywhere in Seoul. Travelers can easily go anywhere they want to go. There are three major transportation, which are bus, subway, and taxi. Those are cheap and convenient. Even more, many delicious and various food restaurants are in Seoul. Restaurants serve not only Korean traditional foods, but also fusion foods. Therefore, I believe travelers can enjoy their trip to Seoul, Korea!!

[Post 15] Living in school dorm..

I lived in AUM dorm last summer semester with one of my Korean friends. It was first time to live in dorm, and at the same time, live far away from my parents. For those, I looked forward to have much freedom, and I certainly had lots of time for myself for the first three weeks. For example, I went to gym almost three times a week and played tennis twice a week. Moreover, I read more than three books. However, I got sick and tired of living in dorm as time goes by. One of the biggest reasons was that I had to make foods every meals. Even though making foods was one of my hobbies, it was difficult to do that. Additionally, I sometimes suffered from insomnia, because the bed was uncomfortable than my bedroom. Therefore, I have believed that there is nothing better than living in my own house.

[Post 14] [Grammar] Sentences exercises that use colon series

I went to Atlanta, ate brunch, had shopping, came back to Montgomery, and had a birthday party on my birthday.

[Post 13] My bedroom in Korea.

It had been almost one year not to go to sleep in my bedroom in Korea. It was my favorite room in my family apartment. At first, there are a bed, a night table, big bookcase, an air conditioner and a mirror. My room has a rectangular shape, and is covered with dark-green colored wallpapers. As you enter my bedroom door, you might see a middle-sized window on the front wall, and It has a bed at the right side with dark brown head. And there is a night table with a lamp and a speaker, which is usually connected to my mini Ipod. You also find that there has a huge dark brownish bookcase, which covered one side wall of the room like a bookstore. There are many novels, essays, textbooks, and other kinds of books, and at the same time, there are some picture frames. At the end of the bookcase's ceiling, there is a small air conditioner. Finally, at the opposite site of the bed, a mirror is hanged on that wall.
This is my missing bedroom in Korea.

[Post 12] My high school.

The high school that I had attended is girls' school, so it is pretty well-completed for girls. It has a ballet dancing room, swimming pool, and many powder rooms in terms of facilities. Moreover, it has been established more than sixty years which means that it has a history. For example, many former alumnae went on to good universities like Ivy League, and furthermore, my alumnae did, too. However, there is one problem with this. Many of my classmates were more depending on private education than school education. From 7:20 AM to 4:10 PM, Monday through Friday, there always had classes, however, students included me did private education such as tutors, or private institutions after school hours. In my case, I had done private education almost from Monday to Sunday until 10PM. The reason was that classes of my high school did not have much attention to national university entering exam, which has the similar concept with ACT or SAT. So, I could not prepare for the exam. Therefore, I, my classmates, and also alumnae were more relied on private education. For this reason, I would like to change the way of my high school education. I would like to make more classes for preparing the exam.

[Post 10] Signs of FALL

What is your favorite season, and why? Since I was young, I have loved the clear season, FALL. As far as I remember, I usually had a field trip or went to picnic in fall season. I believed that one of the important facts was the weather. It is not too hot or cold, but just perfect. The sky is high and fair, and the wind is gently breezed. For those reason, I fully enjoyed the activities with my friends. However, another, the most significant reason, was my birthday. It was a very childish thought to come to think of it, however, it was true. My birthday is at the beginning of September, so i have thought that when the day is coming, it is the same sign that fall is coming. Moreover, my mother usually made pies, which had a symbol of fall, like pumpkin pie. For those, I get to know that Fall is coming!!

[Post 9] Nothing Better

I love to listen various kinds of musics which include rhythm and blues, new age, or rock music. When I was in a bad mood in a young age, I noticed that music made me feel refreshment. Furthermore, I figured out that music made me feel at ease. So, whenever I suffer from insomnia, I listen to music to feel better and fall asleep. Therefore, there are a lot of my favorite songs, however, I would like to share a Korean song, which is one the popular songs. The title of the song is "Nothing Better", and it is included in a genre, R&B ballad. You may imagine that the lyrics of it are related to a love song, in terms of the title and genre. It is true the lyrics are mournful, so it sometimes bring tears to the audience. It says that since he met his girlfriend, he have felt that he is in a dream every single day. So he says that nothing is better than staying and maintaining a relationship with his girlfriend. The singer is very good at rising his voice to a high-pitched falsetto, which matches the rhythms with this lyrics. For this reason, I love to listen this song and the lyrics.

[Post 8] Sports Drink Advertisement

Since I watched a T.V, I believed that I had exposed to many different kinds of advertisements. In Korea, it is common that celebrities are the main characters of advertisements. In particular, cosmetics ad is one of the popuIar lasting ads for few decades. However, when I was young, I did not much interests in cosmetics or apartment ads. I had more attention to food ads, such as beverages, cereals, or bread. And I had never forgetten the advertisement, which is about a sports drink. The spor drink was advertised by woman celebrity with clean and clear images. It attracted me very much, because I had thought that all sport drink ads had sports players with powerful images. It gave me a refreshing jolt. And the background music had a sense of rhythms that have still been hummed by publics.

[Post 7] Barista

I am snsitive to smell food scent, like cilantro or coffee. I am not able to eat cilantro, and even more, I hate to smell this spice. On the other hand, I love to smell and drink cups of coffee within a day. I believe that I am addicted to drink coffee. For this, I mostly go into a cafe or coffee house, smell the coffee scent, and buy a cup of coffee, even though I am in a hurry.  If I smell a good scent, then I can refresh my mind, and at the same time, it makes me feel relax. For those reasons, I had a job in a cafe as a barista. It had so much fun to me, because I learned a lot of methods to make coffee. In addition, I  always felt happy, although the cafe was crowded, and I had to do many tasks in a minute. As I love to talk with people and meet new people, so I enjoyed talking with customers. It was my first job in the united states, so I was able to improve my english, too. It is like killing two birds with one stone.
