Eragon

　　　　I read Eragon 2 years ago but I read this time again. When I go home I took out the Eragon. It had dust but I don’t care about that and I kept read. 2 years ago I finished this book on 8 hours and I didn’t eat anything but that time I finished Eragon on 5 hours. I thought because of I already read this book.
　　　　First time, I thought Eragon was a dragon name and it was about dragon life but it wasn’t. Eragon was main character name and his dragon name was Saphira. Saphira name was almost same as Sapphire.
　　　　Beginning of story was one woman was run away from somebody. Then it goes to another part, there for a boy name of Eragon found the blue rock. He wants to sell that but he changed his mind. That rock was an egg, dragon egg. Eragon hide the dragon (that time, dragon doesn’t have her name) then he started to rear a dragon. He met a man and he heard the secrets of the dragons. Therefore this was a beginning of his adventure. On second section Laine. In Korea, title was different.
　　　　Today people know about Eragon. When I asked to them, “did you saw Eragon?” then they said “yes”. I read this book on 2 years ago. It was more than movie came out. Movie comes out on 1 year ago but I already finish this book. Book was funnier than movie, therefore when I saw the movie I thought this movie was messed up because they cut many pages of book and add different details.
　　　　I can tell them book is funnier than movie because book is original.

Main test

Today I took a test for goint to the main class, mait test. I was nervous but not excited about that because this test is really, really important to me. I try hard to figure out what this vocabulary talking about.
At first page was vocabulary and second page was about reading. At reading, it was soso to me but vocabulary was little hard to me. I thought I have to study about more vocabulary because I was afraid about can't goint to main class today.

3 Examples of Propaganda..

There has many kinds of propaganda.

One of propaganda is about TV show. It spent lots of money but people know about that propaganda is higer their selling percent. In Naiki, they made a propaganda about them. First flash is black. All dark, and no lights anywhere. Finally, one sentences came out with white color. They said, this person can't anything and he goal in his life goal. I thought TV propaganda best is Naiki propaganda because they always gave us good words and sentences.
Example of Naki Propaganda -> http://blog.naver.com/arima21/100000181958

Another is about internet on the news.
In the internet news, they became big news. It is not spent money like in the TV propaganda, but this will become good example of propaganda too. They use this internet news for became president or helping somebody. Propaganda can used in many ways.

Finally, propaganda will be in the newspaper or magazine.
For example, they want to made about don't smoke. In the magazine, somebody made a propaganda about don't smoke and in the picture, woman leap was burn of tabbacco. This propaganda is really interesting for people.
Example for this don't smoke ->

They use this examples for selling there things.

Friendship

　I think students need important things if they need good friends in their life. Friends are giving many emotions or acting to do. If my friend says to me praise, I feel happy about that and I’ll try more hard than before to get more praise. Anybody feel happy about praise or somebody envy about that having praise someone.


　However, friendships are hard, confuse, and difficult to understand somebody because they are friend and also same person as me. In friendship there can change to love or betrayal. People are hard to understand. They can say good things about you in front of you, but in the back they can play the rough about you.


　Most important things to keep the good friendships are praise, smile, and love. Someone keep smile and laugh loudly but not too much, that is makes happy. Of course, anybody can have different opinion about me so I’m not sure about that. However, we don’t have to feel happy if we heard something funny. Anybody have happy in their mind, so when somebody laughs loudly, I feel happy. I think anybody has distinctive atmosphere because we’re same as different. In this reason, if you made this distinctive atmosphere to more pleasant atmosphere, people will have interest about you.


　Next, say praise to somebody every day. When it is difficult to say praise every day, then get practice. If you’re not familiar about praise to somebody, make this new custom to old custom about praise to somebody and keep practicing. Praise is making somebody feel good like smiling. Think about good things about him or her. In addition, don’t mad or angry about somebody. Get relax is first, I think.


　Finally, in second paragraph, I said love. That love means not a love that has love with girl and boy or woman and man. Just for friendship. Always have a love in your mind, keep your mind is keep the good friendships, I think.

How can our class study vocabulary differently?

　　　　I thought we can study vocabulary for sharing sentences. I think if we have a many sentences that can be easier to memorize vocabulary. For example, one vocabulary has more than five sentences, I think that will be good study for memorizing vocabulary. I’m not saying we’re writing sentences more than one, we are sharing the sentences. It will be takes a long time but if we finish quickly, I think this will be good example for study vocabulary differently.


　　　　In addition, we can think another way. Write down a word several times and draw an only picture. I thought drawing only picture is better than draw a picture and making sentence together. This is simpler and I thought, I can memorize more simply and easily in the house.

A flurry of business trips to North Korea expected

　　I learned about Korean history when I was 10 years old. At that time, I can't understood what are they talking about and I got question about why they are so mad of this Korean history? I am young and it was past for me. I am future for this country, I don't have to prepare that, first time I thought like this. However, when I learn about Korean history, I got mad about Korean war in the past. There was very nasty, dirty and mean. In South Korea they tried to made the reunification of North and South Korea but in North Korea, only thought about control all of Korea. In the past, good presidents were assassinated from other people.

Today was

I had a volleyball game today again. I had a final test about writing and reading test. In the reading test, I was reading again and again but I confused about vocabulary. I was effort to finish everything correctly for the test.
Finally, the bell was ringed and it was time to assembly. Assembly is the large group of people who meet regularly to make decision for a country but in here it was a large group for listening for god. In assembly I listened about god and sing a song about god. I was almost sleeping in the assembly but I tried to not sleeping in the assembly.
After assembly we go to the volleyball game for another place. In the place was like USA style. I liked that place because it was very huge place to me like an airport. In the volleyball game, today boys are played first and they lose. We lose too but we tried hard for win.

Test

Yesterday, I was very nervous about today test. My friends are saying about this test. This test score is not going to report card but it helps to going good university. I ate breakfast a lot for ready for today test. I am worried about today test that if I got bad score in this test? However, I forget that and focus in the test.
First time, the test was about Math. I thought math is mixed by Algebra and Geometry. However, I’m not learning Geometry yet, so I worried about it. Accordingly, last page I just pick everything. I said to god “please pick my answer for correct,” just for this time. Accordingly I tried to get highest score and tried hard for my effort.
Next time, the test was about writing. I get panic about writing because I have a terrible grammar. When I turn to page, I turn my face to happy because the topic was about almost free story. I write it everything that I know but time was too short because it was only 30 minutes. Next time I will spend my time more useful and I will study more for test, I thought.

...Today...

Today I woke up at 7:00 a.m. I was very tired for woke up and my body was not moving in my bed. I don’t want to go to school, I don’t want to listen for class, and I don’t want to study for tomorrow test. This week I have too much homework. However, I will have PSAT test on next Thursday, the school calendar said.
I was thinking about today test because Main class friends are said they will have a test on Monday for Biology class. However I forgot forever about that Biology test and I go in to the class for studying and listening.

When I go in to the class I was nervous because of Biology test. I was not sure about we have a test on Monday. Therefore, Mr. Reimer said we have a test on this Friday and I felt happy about that. I am studying about vocabulary and Biology test right now. Fighting!! I am trying to get good store! Oh, and in Mrs. Major Class, we read a book ‘Star girl.’ It was really fun to me! After studying time I will read again.

Books!

Today my sister and I have some baggage from internet book store. This Wednesday, we went bookstore and we bought some books and other things are we called papa and said “Can you buy this book for us?” He said yes, for Chusok present. I got some ‘Media’. In the book cover, the reader said it is fantastic book, somebody said it is best book for summer. It can’t stop anymore or in the middle page and it was true. I can’t stop reading Media; it was very fun story for me. I like it for that story; finally I read all the pages. It was cool for me. Bravo!

Later, I imagine I became a writer about any fiction books. I thought writing is really fun, actually imagine and think about everything will cool. However first time I have to write grammer correctly than I started to study.

Bithday party

It was my friend’s birthday. We ate a broiled dish of sliced rice cake, meat, eggs, seasoning, etc. It was taste very hot and spicy but auntie made especially for young people. In this spicy rice cake store, auntie made a spicy rice cake to little sweet and it was taste good. I like sweet and spicy rice cake more than only spicy rice cake. My friend buys 9,000 won sweet and spicy rice cake, Kim-bob, and Ramen. We talked about lots of things.

We talked about friends, sometimes food, study, homework (actually I don’t know what are they homework). It was fun and I felt little surfeit because there foods are so delicious.

Grave in the mountain

We go to the mountain to perform a religious service to our grand-grand-grandmother and grand-grand-grandfather. There have many mosquitoes. I hate that place but I have to go for perform a religious service. My uncle bought Ep-killer for kill mosquitoes. However the mosquitoes were living again, again, again. Finally I have mosquitoes bite for 5 times and it was very itchy for me. My sister and cousin, they don’t have any mosquitoes bite so I said you was very luck, I look at them with an envious look. Of course, they said, why you face like that and they laugh.

Waa- mosquitoes’ bites are itching again! Garr!
I thought next time I have to wear long shirt.

Department store

I bought three books, my cousin bought toys, and my young sister bought same toys as cousin. My grandmother said to them, why you guys were buying these unnecessary things? They said because I need it and they want to play with those toys. My grandmother said do it yourself, finally they bought their toys.
Finally, my grandmother, she spent money total 70,000 won.

Poor grandmother, how poor she is?
However I don’t think I have to change this book to money. Later, at grandmother house, I spent all the time to read this new book. It was fun and I will buy another one because this book is publishing a novel with in a serial form. I will buy 3 more serial form about this book!

Go to the grandmother house

I am grandmother house computer right now. Back is my cousin, he is younger than me but he is same birth as me. His birth is 1993 and me too but he is not taller than me. Aunt said he has disease about his tall therefore he has medicine every week. However medicine was syringe so I thought it would be hurt for him. We played in the playground because here is country. There have no bread store so we have to buy in the small shop.

I wasn’t has any sit in the bus. There have many people in the bus and it is like a crowd before the movie start. I don’t like any noisy everywhere but I have to come down, relax, and I breath loudly. I look around for sit down, and one girl said I can sit next to her. Therefore I said Thank you to her, I felt happy and thanks to her. If she not calls me then I have to sit down on the bus floor.
Finally, I thought next time, I have to come to the bus more quickly than this time.

Biology Test....Aaaaaaakkkkkk!!

Yesterday I slept very early. I just slept at 10:30 p.m. I think. It was really early time to going bed in my middle school student life. I woke up at 6:00 a.m. but actually I woke up several times because of an alarm clock. They match to 5:00 o’clock or something, and they didn’t wake up. Therefore I wake up several times and when I woke up at 6:00 a.m. I can’t felt freshmen about today morning. However, some of the people woke up at 5:00 a.m. and turn off an alarm clock rang. It was very loud sound to me, I felt disappointed to an alarm clock and I don’t want to hear that again.

Therefore I wake up at 6:00 a.m. and I’m trying to study for my today Math Test. Math teacher said, she will take a test when she come back from trip and she give us last time test score. I got good score and I was happy about that.

After school I have volleyball practice. I was happy about today volleyball practice was only 1 hour so we can quit at 4:30 p.m. When volleyball practice was finished, bus friends are gone to take a bus. However dorm friends are said, they will play volleyball practice more at the GYM. After volleyball practice I came back to the dorm and sleep for just 10 minutes and played computer game. Nevertheless, I forget to do something about computer so just look around my blog and other people blog. I saw many pictures and thought; I want to draw a picture like that. It was also fun to me. Actually, right now 8:45 p.m. at study time, I’m excited about tomorrow fun Friday. My father said he will buy lot of books to me and that books are very fun likes Tara Duncan. Tara Duncan is my most favorite book right now. Actually, I always changed my favorite books but right now is Tara Duncan. Nevertheless, my father said he bought Tara Duncan and other books that I want but he said it will go to the school.

I little worry and excited about tomorrow because of books. I’m going to my home tomorrow than I don’t have time to see my books. That is why I’m worrying, however, I will get books tomorrow! Wow! I feeling right now, I can sleep very well I think.

But…hmm…I have Biology test tomorrow… What should I do?

R.R.

At night, I got R.R. from Dorm parents. R.R is called room reception. If we got room reception, we have to live in our room for one day except study time.

I was lying down my body in my bed but I can’t sleep well like yesterday because today, I had a test for Mr. Fambro class. I toss about in one’s bed like 5 minutes. Finally, I woke up and go down to my desk. I will do it my homework now; because I don’t have time to do my homework, I spent my time for class homework. Later, I finished my work, I will sleep comfortably, and I will wake up at 5:00 a.m. and study for test again. This was my plan for yesterday. I turn on my lamp, sit down in my chair and I started to working Mrs. Major Project. Christina was having manicure in her fingernail and Rachel Y was doing something. When I started to do my project, the door was opened.

Bump!
…Oops…



I was very surprised because door was opened. I felt guilty in my mind and I tried to hide under my desk. Mrs. Karlson was looking around our room. I was hiding from Mrs. Karlson because I don’t want to get trouble but she turn on the light. She saw Christina, Rachel J, me and other 2 people. Total 5 people got R.R. from Mrs. Karlson.

Therefore, today I was stay in my room with 4 more people. We talked, slept, studied, but it was bored. I thought, next time I will just slept and don’t get R.R.

Was my alarm clock?

On Monday night, I put new battery and I promised myself I will wake up at 5:00 a.m. and I will study for tomorrow reading test. My roommates are saying same words about tomorrow test and wake up at 5:00 a.m. It looks like impossible, but I did it. Only 30 seconds.

Today daybreak at 5:00 a.m., someone alarm clock was rang very loud but fortunately, dorm parents ware not coming to our room because we closed the door already. I heard that rang loudly but nobody turn off an alarm clock. If they asked, why didn’t you turn off an alarm clock I will say because it is not mine? Or because it is too far from my bed and I don’t want to go down to the floor, turn off the alarm clock, climb and go back to my bed. Was it too far from me?

I thought an alarm clock rang already 2 minutes and somebody turns off an alarm clock. Finally, I can sleep comfortably and peaceful.
As a result, I didn’t finish my study for test.

In the morning

Today was sunny day. Yesterday I woke up at 12:00 p.m., my body was not working. Now, today, my body was not working again. I don’t want to wake up but sunshine was stabbing my eyes. I raise my body and next time at night, I will draw a curtain. I think 5 minutes; I was sleeping like a statue with raise my body. Wee-who! Impossible, I thought. Next, I knew it; my alarm clock was not ring. I go down to my desk and saw my alarm clock. It was not worked. A stopwatch just stoped. Oh, my gush. I forgot to change my alarm food (battery). I talked to myself I will do later. I looked around my room and everybody was sleeping. I took my tooth-brush and toothpaste.

When I was walked through my room and going to the bathroom, several times I felt my body is going down slowly and slowly. I was very tired my body was not working well. If I walked my one foot and my body was shook like a 63 building.

63 building was always shaking because it was too tall and high but my mother said 63 building was okay because they planned several times to make more safety then when they finished their plan, the workers made up. Then, when I gather one’s senses, I knew it, it was dream. I thought I was walking through the bathroom and brush my teeth but it was not. I woke up again and I go to the bathroom normally.

In the bathroom when I brushing my teeth, I thought, how could I dream like I was going to the bathroom? Mystery!
Then I spit out.

Events : Wednesday

In Wednesday, our team played volleyball game in another school. I just want to played volleyball game in the GSIS Gym but we don’t have to practice in GSIS Gym. After lunch it is time for going another school, we have a game with that school. School name was KENT school but I’m not sure about school name spelling. However bus driver was driving to the GYM not the KENT school. It was normal GYM in the outside. We practice for the volleyball game. First time and second time we lost, but third time we win. I thought we were improving for volleyball game. Finally we lost but I felt proud of myself because I felt we were improving for volleyball game. For the game I promise for the next game I will try to get more point in the volleyball game next time.


Emotions : Tuesday

In Tuesday, I felt very tired. But I have to go to the GYM for volleyball practice. I felt so tired because yesterday I study for two tests on Thursday and one test on Friday. In Thursday we were have math and US History test. Math test, I have to learn and practice for math skill about numbers and US History I have to know about vocabulary and history about nomad. Therefore I felt tired, math and US History test page was so many pages to me and I have to memorized all the pages. I felt tired but after school I felt better than before because in class time my brain and eyes were closing or not, closing or not several time. However I practice volleyball game in Tuesday.



Education : Monday

In Monday, it was time for going school. In Sunday I promised myself, “Tomorrow I will get up at 6:00 a.m. and I will study for Monday class!” but I broke it myself. I woke up at 7:16 a.m. At 6:00 a.m. I woke up but I slept again. My bed was talked to me, come here and get more sleep! … I fell into temptation of my bed. My bed was very warm and soft to me so I slept again. However I was not late in the school but I can’t study for class and text book. That day I learned, I started to promise easy thing first.
