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.

Why you should...

Speech 2 Prompt: Why you should.... Come up with a title using the above, and state it at the beginning of your speech. Keep in mind that this is basically open topic, and can be either a warning against something or a positive piece of advice. I suggested KMLA, but you mostly voted to make it open. My advice: Write it out completely and follow a Journey/Character Arc and segment it into a Memory Palace with CLEARLY defined segments. Requirments: You must use ONE MEANGINGFUL PAUSE in your speech. I will demonstrate this. You must make use of at least one segment of DIALOGUE.0  You must use the expression - "For the love of god" one time. 0 You must use REPETITION at least once. Ex: "Maybe it was because the weather was rainy. Maybe it was because my shoes were wet. Maybe it was because my umbrella was broken. But clearly, the weather made my mood only worse, so I screamed at my brother." 0  Have fun, don't be afraid to read from a paper if you aren't fully c...

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...

Now I know.

 A grim-faced girl who is waving her hands violently to get a taxi on streets. Her red face was soaked with tears continuously falling down. Because she couldn't breathe properly, she had to keep making weird noise trying to breathe. Everybody passing her by was glancing at her wondering what is wrong with her. Some of them might have wondered whether they should help her, but they could not get close to her easily because she seemed to be out of mind. She seemed literally crazy.   This was how I looked when I heard that dad collapsed and was rushed to the emergency room from mom on the phone. Because she told me that I should keep it secret from my little sister, I had to suppress my surprise in house and burst into tears on streets, getting taxi to go to a hospital dad's in.   "God, please secure him."   In a taxi, I kept praying to god wishing him to be safe. I wished it was a slight sickness.   "Mom! Is he okay? Can I see him?"  I as...
