Volleyball, the best sports in KMLA

 I think volleyball is the best sport to play in KMLA. Unlike other sport like basketball and soccer, players don't have to move much from their position. The best volleyball player doesn't get the ball that goes to other player's positions. If they do so, the teamwork will be broken and the play will be a mess. Because students don't have to move much from their position, they can save energy for studying. However, it doesn't mean that volleyball isn't fun as other sports. Almost all students who took volleyball class last year, even including those who have only studied in KMLA and have never played sports before, said that it was fun, and most of them chose to continue playing it in university.

However, I think they don't know real fun in volleyball. Due to the COVID-19, they were not in school, so when they were back in school, the teacher put(?) played the game. Some could say that game is the most fun part, but the real fun comes before the game. 

Before playing, game, we start preparing for the game. We make partners. I always hope and eager to be a team with 승호, who is good at volleyball and also studying, which makes him the most popular boy in KMLA. Although he has a ridiculous face, his volleyball skill covers it. As every player in KMLA wants to be a team with him, a struggle for him always occurs. It's quite fun to see them struggling. 

Second, volleyball is the only sport in KMLA that boys and girls can play together. Sports like soccer and basketball are mostly male dominant, while softball and handball are female dominant. Interaction with other gender is very important for high school students. It is actually because they become 'mature' and start to date. It's important as a student who has a boyfriend or girlfriend or both is much happier than who doesn't. MVP is the best place in KMLA to make a girlfriend or boyfriend, and volleyball is the best sport to have them. For instance, there was a boy who thought he couldn't date in high school because he was suffering hair loss. However, he miraculously made a girlfriend while playing volleyball, and of course, she was MVP. There is no doubt that the quality of life always doubled after dating her. 

The last reason is that volleyball is a team sport. When students are playing volleyball, no matter they are attacking or defending, team play is very important. Every teammate should exchange signs quickly before setting the ball, and the setter and spiker should make perfect timing together for attacking. Because there should be many interactions. Of course, there are many fights between teammates. But those processes are actually the one that leads to growth to your cooperativity ability.

Lab Note #3 The result

  Lab Note #3 The result Experiment date: 2020. 8. 31 Material: Microscope, cell counting machine, the result of the first experiment 1. Observing the result of the last experiment  Through a microscope, I observed colorectal cells that were treated with PLA2 and 5-FU. Then I took pictures of them through a computer connected to the microscope.  Though I expected to observe the reduced cells, I was surprised to see the cells that reduced only in a small amount. So I decided to use cell counting machine to get the exact result.  2. Counting cells Dead cells are stained red while alive cells are stained green. The machine then count the number of green cells and red cells.  First, I put small amount of buffer solution with chemical (PLA2 or 5FU) and cells on the small plate. (Pipetting should be done in order to make sure that cells aren't compacted together.) Then, I put the plate on the machine which starts counting. After I check the result, I saved it on the U...

Dormitory alone

     I throw myself on my bed being exhausted. I can hear my roommates under me talking loudly about food they are going to eat in home during weekends. Wishing the dormitory weekend menus to be good, I close my eyes for a short sleep until the first self study time begins.   Surprised with a large sound coming out from my alarm clock, I wake up. The total silence in a whole room makes me hard to believe that only 30 minutes have passed from the moment that the whole dormitory was full of sound of students being excited about going home. I consider sleeping for a whole self study for a moment, but I soon make up my mind and get out of the bed since I know dormitory teacher always look around the empty dormitory in order to check whether students cleaned their room before they leave.   I slowly put books in to study during the first self study time in my bag and go up to a cafeteria, my favorite place to study. A cafeteria which is usually full of students...
