chain writing - five girls' friendship

       A long time ago, there were five girls in a school. Their name were Sonia, Anna, Grace, U-Jin, and Catherine. Then Sonia and Anna got into a fight and their friendship cracked. This fight made these five girls into two, divided teams. One team was Grace and Sonia. On the other hand, the other team was Anna, U-Jin, and Catherine.

       Even when they met each other, they ignored and kept doing their own work. They became further and further than before. But gradually, they started to miss each other. They recalled their memories and experiences they had, which included going shopping, watching TV, running, playing, dancing, studying...etc together.

       One day, Sonia and Anna met each other at the shopping mall, in the cafe. First, they tried to ignore each other as they did before. But it was really hard to do, because they were very kind and nice girls. So, they determined to apologize to each other.

        After that day, the two divided groups united into one group and all of those five people became a nice, good friends! Next, they had a fantastic time to celebrate the reconciliation! They went to the amusement park together and had a fun time! Also, after school, they always played together and as they did before, they went shopping and enjoyed their time.

        Until now, they were good friends and tried to cherished their fantastic memories! They would be good friends forever...^^

Dear, GLPS

  I really want to thank you, GLPS. After I met you, I usually felt happy. Actually I was really miserable before I came to you. Mostly, I was dark and gloomy. Going to an educational institution, doing homework, studying... These were my works in my house. But it changed! I became a bright, new girl^^

  I believe most of the people who met you might be able to be happy like me! Frankly, sometimes you are very difficult and not so easy. But even though you have some difficulties, you made me live a different life - way better than before^^

  Because of you I improved my English ability especially writing and debate! I miss my family a lot, but I'm afraid to say good -bye to you^^

  I've had many experiences and had good opportunities meeting you. Also, I made good friends! Even foreigners, too! It was my first time to make my foreign friends... I like you so~ much!

  But we have only one more week to stay together so I'm really sad... I believe you will last in my mind forever. So... don't forget me!

  Lastly, I had a fantastic time with you. And as I mentioned before, I really thank you!~

Sincerely,

Isabel

Reflective essay on "Spring"

Reflective essay on "Spring"

Have you ever hurt any animals? As you know, animals are also one of the living things. Animals also have a right to live. Now I’m going to write about the lesson I've got from the video named, “Spring Summer Fall Winter and Spring.” To summarize this video, the little monk was interested at hurting animals. For instance, tying the rock on fish, frog, and snake. So, monk which is his master did the same thing to him while he slept. In other words, he tied the rock to him on his back. At last, he got a lesson from him and tried to save fish, frog, and snake from the danger.

I think his master is very brilliant and has a lot of intelligence (wisdom). I learned quite many things from him by seeing this video.

Actually, I have an experience which is related to this video in my life. Frankly, I have done that thing, such as little monk when I was young. While I was watching, I became quite embarrassed. When I was young, I haven’t known the importance of animal’s life. I had caught fishes and played with them. Also, for fun, I made them die by making them suffocate. Also, I have an experience of killing a dragonfly… I made it unable to fly anymore by cutting out its wings. I think I was very crazy…

I feel very sorry for them. As I wrote before, animals are also one of the living things. Because of me, some of the animals became handicapped. If I imagine I’ve got hurt by someone, I would be really sad. Even more, I could be killed by someone just like animals. I recognized that animals could be painful as much as we do.

After that, I try not to hurt them. Actually, I keep this thing in my mind not to forget anymore. From now-on, I’ll tell this thing to my near people such as my friends and babies. From this opportunity, I realized I was wrong.

In my conclusion, I’m not going to hurt those little insects and bugs, such as tiny ants, bees, and fishes. After I saw this video, I examined myself. To add with, I learned some lessons from the monk, such as little monk does. The lessons was first, as I mentioned it, I learned to cure for animals. Next, even though it is very small and weak as an ant, be careful and respect their precious life.

So I want many people to know the animals’ life are also very valuable as much as people do. And I’ll keep try saving some of their life from others and especially me. Lastly, once more, I really want to say those animals which I killed, sorry.

Kony 2012

Kony 2012

    Have you ever heard about Kony? First to introduce about him, he is the boss of LRA, which stands for, Lord's Resistance Army. He's a man who makes children to kill their parents and orders them to be a child-sex slaves and child soldiers. 66,000 children became soldiers and two million people have been displaced in 1986. What do you feel? Don't you feel angry? Now, I'm going to write about my opinion of making criminal famous is right things to do.

   To start with, do you think making criminal famous is a good idea? Well... I do. That's because making criminal famous helps to gather the people to catch them. A large majority versus criminal are way profitable than few people versus criminal. One guy used 'you tube' to make Kony more popular for other people. Also, our classmate knew about Kony by 'you tube.' If he did not spread this awful news to the world, then Kony would keep killing young people even though they did not make any mistake. Also as I mentioned before, he kept ordering those children to kill their parents! It was really shoking! How sad children's feeling might be... Let’s pretend our self to be those children. I would be scared and nervous. Also, I would miss my family a lot. We should stop him.

   But some people disagree on making criminals famous. That's because sometimes it could make criminals into depth. If many people know them, they would keep saying bad words to the criminals and the internet might be very noisy of that news. Also, some people would try to catch those criminals.

    

   To add with, some people can hurt criminals with no thinking. They can even kill them very cruelly. Someone who disagree with these might think that killing is not so good idea. They might be concerned about it.

   But I'm different with them. Criminals such as Kony 2012 would be able to do bad things. For instance, killing or robbing money from the bank. They might kill many people. But why do we have to think and cure for them?

   Anyway, this method is a very good idea to destroy Kony's plan, So, in my conclusion, I agree with this video. In the other words, making criminal famous is right things to do.  And making criminals famous is a good way to arrest the prisoner, because we can gather lots of people. Also, some people try to capture criminals. Sometimes, they even do demonstrate. Even though they know its dangerous, they really try to help invisible children. Let's try to help them! Let's try to arrest them together and give those children a hope and dream as a same people."Fighting!!"

Three things that I know to be true

   Have you ever thought about three things you know to be true? I haven't but now I'm going to write about them, which is, traveling, jump-rope, and my puppy called, "Happy." 

 
  First, I like traveling. Most people like traveling. In modern times, many people started to travel abroad. I have some experience traveling outside of my country, Korea. I went to Guam, Thailand for several times, and Saipan. If I ride an airplane, my heart goes crazy. It starts to beat really fast! Even though we spend much time in airplane, I like traveling. Traveling is very exciting and fun! By traveling, we can even have new memories and experience. Also, we can know about other countries. It could be a good opportunity!

  

 
Second, jump rope makes me healthier. Lastly, people's height become very important. Lot's of women like men who are tall enough. Nowadays, people hope to be taller, so many of them do jumprope to grow taller. Also, I do it sometimes. Because we jump a lot if we do jumprope, it affects your play our health and height. As for height, I recommend you play basketball and do jumprope, but, as you know, basketball is hard to play. Expecially for girls like me. (In some cases, women can do it better than men) My future plan is to do jumprope a lot and become healthier.

   Third, my favorite animal is a dog. I'm raising a puppy as our family's pet. His name is 'Happy' He is a very small and active puppy. Happy is my second pet in our family. My first pet was also puppy which was named, 'Doonge' Because I was so young, I haven't recognized the importance of family. Then I bred him roughly. So, still I feel very sorry to my first pet, 'Doonge.' This mistake gave me a lesson.

Now on, I am going to love my pet, " Happy" and treat him carefully. I would not repeat my mistake anymore! " I love you, Happy!"  To introduce "Happy," he has very soft and white fur. To be truthful, I like him. Frankly, I like most of puppies. (Ofcourse I like "Happy" the most) Going for a walk with puppy makes me feel fresh and good. Also puppies even help me relieve stress! These are the reasons why I like puppy.

   In my conclusion, I think I had a fun time finding three things that I know to be true, which is, traveling, jump-rope, and my puppy. I've never tried something like this before so this has been a great experience for me. By this opportunity, I also had a great time to think of myself.
