#about me


(Before I start this writing, i want to make sure that I really don't know well about myself.)



1.

I am a normal 18-year-old girl who live in KMLA, a high school that I've desperately dreamed of for 1 years in middle school. Before I came here, I assured that I am person who SHOULD study liberal arts, but now, I am thinking of majoring biology. The main reason why I changed my mind to study natural science is because I didn't have confidence to study liberal arts in 'English' in foreign university. (I lost a confidence in English a lot in last semester as I had a difficulty in English writing in two literature classes-brit lit and AP lit.) Although I am far behind many students who have studied biology long time since I started to learn biology deeply in SAT biology class in this school, I think I would not change my major anymore.

I am not sure what job I want to have in future, but I am considering being a doctor in England for now. To achieve that goal, I am doing my best in my own way to get into biomedical department in university in England. (I am more attracted to England universities than US universities)

My hobby is to take pictures and acting, that are the only things that make me happy in the school. This semester, I am planning to take identification pictures of KMLAians and make a play in a acting club, 'Life is drama(LID)'. I sometimes enjoy writing about my emotions in my Korean blog because it makes me organize my thought and relieve the stress. Excitement of Reading comments written by people whom I don't know is another reason that makes me post on my 'another' blog.

I once really love playing volleyball, but now, I don't like it after getting too much stress in a school volleyball team. I got to know that I can enjoy the volleyball only if i do not get a oppression that I have to do it well.

I came to decide to listen to this class because I desperately thought it is necessary for me to practice 'English writing' first before taking literature class as I realized I am really bad at English writing in last semester. Also, after reading a syllabus of this class, I thought I could gain an interest to write in English as I got interested in writing in Korean by making a post on a blog consistently

I wish I could achieve my goal through this class

  1. Good first post. I like the point by point break down. Now, for practice, look again, and consider: How could I transition from point to point with last and first points in each paragraph? Hmmm.
    As for taking Brit Lit and AP Lit in the same semester.... with two teachers who really love those topics... ALWAYS going to be tough. Especially if your wave doesn't have the core writing classes like former waves do. But don't worry about it too much and just keep chipping away and getting better by reading and writing and writing and reading. This time next year you will see A LOT of improvement when you have to take communicative style writing A LOT more seriously for college applications. The UK is always a sensible option for students who really know what they want, and indeed LAC approach can frustrate some students.

To God.

  To God. God, I decided not to trust you anymore. I feel like you are merely an illusion now. I feel like ‘full faith on you’ that people talk about is a result of self-brainwashing. When I confessed this to mom, a committed Christian, she seemed to be very angry. Maybe, she felt like I was telling her like this. ‘congratulations! You succeeded brainwashing yourself into believing that a fake is a real!’ Of course, I didn’t mean it, but everyone whom I confessed this reacted similarly. In fact, there was a person who showed a different reaction from others. My friend, B, told me that a faith is not what I can have just because I want it, but what you present to people who crave for it and all I can do now is to pray for that faith. But I can’t believe it either. What is faith exactly? Isn’t it just a result of giving up having a question on your existence and hypnotizing myself that you are a real? I can’t even believe that millions of people who don’t be...

Being older

 Many people agree that just 'aging' doesn't mean 'being older''. In past, though I totally agreed that an increase of years people have lived isn't equal to being 'old', I couldn't define it by myself. However, now, I definitely know how old people are different from young people.  My friends in KMLA are very sensitive to what is 'wrong'. While many students in our age merely follow what the school and society says, we know how to make our voice to criticize an unreasonable thing. In a process of finding out problems and criticizing them, we improve by learning ways to convey our opinions and standards to decide what is wrong and right. I think this is what 'young people' do. They mentally develop by recognizing problems and making their own voices to fix them. They are never satisfied with what they have but try to make their situation 'best' by fixing them by their own power.  However, old people do not even try t...

Essence material

      Hye Won, who was busy adapting to a high school that she haven't gone for a year, was surprised when housemaster called her name to remind her that she didn't take her parcel. Thinking that her parents might have sent her a parcel, she went down to a lobby to take it. However, parcel was too small to say that her parents sent it since parents told her that they would send a lot of snacks in a big box. Plus, the sender's name on the box was weird - 'dung u ri deul (덩어리들)'. Since everything about the parcel was saying that it was not for her, she suspected that housemaster called a wrong name for an instant, but the recipient name on the box was definitely hers - the only name in the school. Therefore, she just decided to take it and check what it is. Maybe, she would be able to remember the parcel that she ordered a long time ago but cannot remember.      'Hello, master! It's nice to meet you :) '  A small note with this message was the first thin...
