lazyness
For a couple of months, I am so lazy. I can't get up early every morning or study hard after school or sometimes I miss something to do. December is coming but right now I don't do that. I usually spend time surfing Internet and watching TV show. I have to do what I must do with new month.

the Twelfth night or what I will
When I was younger, I liked to read Shakespeare's works which were a little difficult for me to understand them. They were really good. Especially, I preferred his comedy ones such as the twelfth night or what I will, Much ado about nothing, and the taming of the Shrew, to tragedy. After reading them I watched the movie of Shakespeare's. In the movie, I could listen to beautiful music made of his sonnet and see splendid customs of that time. Right now, I have a plan I will read his books in Englis because I think I can feel his literary style in English although he wrote an old language.

Happy Thanksgiving!~~
Today it was a national holiday, Thanksgiving which was my first one in America. My host family invited me and they served very delicious food such as turkey, cranberry jelly, mashed potato, and some kinds of korean food. When I learned about Thanksgiving day in Korea, I couldn't figure out that day. However, I can remember the date and the history as well as I know what kind of food they have. I think it is a kind of progressive education of method^^ Anyway Thanksgiving day seemed very importand day for Americans because Starbucks closed at pm 4 o'clock so I had to leave there. Next Thanksgiving day I am going to see the macy's parade. Maybe it will be fun.

That's what friends are for..
When I was a high school student, I had to stay at my school until 11p.m. to study. It was mandatory. Everyday I was exhausted and very tired because I styed there late from monday to saturday. At that time I could release my stress by watching tv, especially live music show. That was what I could do for me. One day, I was overwhelmed when I heard a song, That's what friends are for on the music show. The song whispered me "Don't worry. for good time and bad time I will be your side forever more. That's what friends for". I wanted to cry when listening to this song. These days I need another song to touch me.

take a rest...
While waiting for the train to Hempstead, I was reading a book about a Korean girl who was very cleaver and studied in Harvard univ. It was a great time because not only the whether was very warm and sunny but also the story was touching me. At the train station, I enjoyed my sweet time for 40 minutes. Sometimes, people can feel happy to do nothing special. Actually it was tough time for me to spend this week but the time saved me...

famous Korean food, Bibimbab
This is "Bibimbab" which is one of the famous Korean food. In the big bowl, there are so many kinds of vegatables and fried egg and rice and hot paste, called Gochujang and just mix them together. Bibim means mix and bab means rice in Korean so you can understand this dish easily. If foreigners ask me to recommend Korean food, I will choose this one without hesitation. In this picture, this is special Bibimbab, named Junju Bibimbab which is different from others in the bowl of material. Generally, Junju bibimbab is put on the Bronze bowl. It is very unique so it mekes this food famous. I want to have Bibimbab as my dinner..

so tired!~~
This weekend, I had to do many things so right now I am so tired... Today, it was the 37th birthday of my church so we had a special party. We sent invitation cards and prepared many kinds of food and cleaned up for this party. Yesterday, I decorated the church board until around 10pm and helped our church members to cook a lot of food. At the party there were many people to celebrate the birthday. Although I am tired, I am happy because it was a good time.

something stupid!!
Yesterday, Mamika and I went to the bus stop to take the bus, N16, after school. It was about 4:50 pm. At the bus stop, there were many students including our classmates wating for their buses. It was strong wind and very cold. While Mamika talked to her Japanese friend, I was talking with William about our dream and future. After about 20 mins, William asked us why we didn't take our bus, N16. When Mamika and I looked around the bus stop, we relized that we missed the bus because some students who take N16 disappeared. So we had to wait for our bus until 5:30pm. After William left, there were only Mamika and I and one student at the bus stop. We were very clumsy. We wondered how we din't see the bus arrive and students take the bus... Maybe we concentrated on our conversation..

Three Rivers.
This is the drama, "Three Rivers" on the CBS. I like medical drama very much so I usually watched the drama, "Dr. House" in Korea. However, I realized that it is very difficult to understand medical drama without substitle. The medical terms are very complicated and not easy to understand but I watch this show every Sunday night. In the drama, there are 5 main charachers; four of them are surgeons and the rest man is a donor cordinator. This show is dealing with donor's family and patients' life and story so sometimes the episodeis sad or touching me. Furthermore, one of the main characters, as you know the left man in the picture, is a Korean guy, named Daniel Henny. I am his fan so I like to see him on the TV. Why don't you watch this drama?? It's helpful to practice English..^^

Daylight Saving Time Ends
Finally, daylight saving time ends. So it is getting darker in the evening. When I was an elementary school student, we performed daylight saving time, called summer time, during summer season. I can remember that time. It was terrible and horrible system because I thought I couldn't sleep enough and had to get up earlier due to daylight saving time. Actually, it didn't efficent system for me. However, it doesn't bother me like that time right now. Anyway, I am accustomed to my American life.
