Study Group

I was thinking about making a study group during the reading class. I love to study with a group. In the group, I can make sure for my understanding through discussion. It also helps me to remember vocabs and contents easily. Moreover, I can avoid being lazy because I break my promises of studying easily. I want to improve my English skills. There are many ways, but I prefer to read more to be better in English. To be honest, I am not a big fan of reading. ^^;; When I was a student in Korea, I was very busy to prepare for entrance exam of University. I memorized many things and practiced tests. Because of that, I did not have time to read books that I wanted to, or just enjoy. It might be a just good excuse, but anyway, I did not read a lot. First, I started to read to do homework in this semester. Later, I notice that I really enjoy reading. So, I was thinking about making study group for reading. Now I need to get certain score in TOEFL except EAP to apply nursing. I know no one likes TOEFL, but anyway I need it. That's reality ( When Murray said, monkey can pass that the test. I was laughing because I could not pass.) so, someone who needs TOEFL score by June 30 can join studying with me, or we could make reading group after EAP, or during. I think that will be fantastic idea. We can read many things and share many ideas. ^^ Someone who is interesting in it let me know. I will try to make a plan. I am so excited. ^^

Carpe Diem!

I was almost dying on Saturday. The road was very snowy and icy. We drove very slowly and carefully because it was white out condition. Suddenly, the car cut into our lane. There was not enough distance between the car and us. In addition, What a stupid driver! He started drove slowly. It made us even worse. We were almost hitting the car was driving in front of us. For a second, my husband turned our car to the left quickly to avoid hitting the car, and we lost our control. Our car spined 3 times toward right side. I thought I was dying. Luckly, our car was stoped just before the edge and we alived. Everything happened for a moment.
At night, I was thinking about how thankful we live togater. I decided to be more possitive and to say "thank you" or " I love you" more frequently. I have never taught about I could die any time. I always just believe I will live for a long time. This accident changed my mind. Who knows when we are going to die? I will enjoy my life and try not to do anything makes me regret. Thanks God.

My baby

When my husband said to my mom about that we are going to have a black baby, my mom was shocked. She did not understand how come her daughter is going to have a black baby even though her daugher has gotten married just three weeks ago with a white guy. haha
The trueth is that we are going to have a black shunauzer puppy. Look at the picture. Oh~~~! isn't it cute? I was strongly against having a puppy at first becuase having a pet needs to have strong reponsibilities such as giving her bath or talking a walk togater everyday. I thought I was not ready to have a pet. However, when I saw this little baby on Saterday, I changed my mind. She is so cute. Her smell was so sweet and her body was warm. She loved to lying on my husband hands more than mine. It was OK.

I have just loved her. ^^ Like a picture, she could have not opened her eyes yet. Owener told me she also could not hear, either. I saw she was dreaming. What is her dream about? She doesn't have any images and sounds. Howcwer, her dream seemed very sweet. I cannot wait to see her soon. I want to be a good mom!^^

Ps. oh! I am thinking about a good name for her. Is there any good suggestion?^^

Weekend

Finally, TGIF!
Friday is my favorite day because I don’t need to do homeworks for the next day. ^^
During week days, I am usually busy to do all of my do lists in certain time. However, on Friday I don't usually think about thoese things.
Actually, I don't have special plans for weekend. What do I do usually? I think I usually cleaning and cooking. ^^;; During week days, I don't have time to clean well, but I can do on weekends. I know it doesn't sound interesting, but I like it. I love to clean all places and do lundaries. It is one way to relief my stress. After cleaning, having a coffee with good music is my favorite.
Oh! cooking! This is my new hobby. When I was in Korea, I have never cooked. My mother always takes care of me. She is a really good cook. Unfortunally, I have not had chances to learn cooking from my mom. So, when I came to Canada first. Most foods that I bought is frozen foods, noodles, ice creams, cookies... etc. Instant food or junk food.. -.- I started to cook to survive. I broke so many dishes and made something horrible foods. Later, I became better. Now, I am a good cook. hihi. I love to read cooking book ( becuase it has a lot of pictures) I noticed that western food cooking is much easier than Koren food cooking. Anyway, nothing will be special on this weekend, too. However, I think that spending more time with my family makes always me happy. I am thinking what I am going to cook tonight. If you have a good idea, let me know. ^^
Have a good weekend.

Working - my dream job

My dream job is that of a travel writer because it is very adventurous. A travel writer can go to many different places that are famous or that are not known to the public yet. I love to travel and want to have more exposure to experience about different cultures. Thus, I would probably not feel like I am working if I were to be a travel writer. Someone may sponsor me if I became famous. In this case I can travel free and also earn money. It is also very creative job because a travel writer makes a story about a trip and sometimes recommends good places and routes that people don’t already know. Keeping busy does not make me feel bored and invigorates me. That is why a travel writer is a dream job for me.

business

If I have a chance to open business in Korea with experience living in Canada, I would like to open “Tim Horton.” These days because of the effect of western culture, drinking coffee is more popular than drinking tea. Some people are against drinking Star bugs coffee that shows capitalism. They say that America use star bugs to invade other countries, not only to earn money, but also conquer culture. Anyways, coffee lovers are getting increased despite criticizing and worries.
I also love to drink coffee. When I saw Tim Horton at first, I thought it is cool because they sell several different kinds of foods such as soup sandwiches, bagel etc. I think in Korea we have coffee shop which sell only coffee. They usually sell muffin or cookies but they don’t make any food. However, in Tim Horton give more options to get fresh food. I think people like it.
It might be more popular than Star bugs.

On the other hand, if I have a chance to open business in Canada with experience living in Korea. I would like to open singing room. It is little different from Karaoke. We don’t sell any alcohol in singing room. Usually it is for young people’s entertainment place. For example, out side of singing room is made out of window, so young people make sure their safety. In addition, they can use a room for singing with only their friends, so they do not worry their singing ability. Customers also can get a tape of their singing or they can see themselves through screen while they are singing or dancing. I think in Calgary, Canada, they don’t have much entertainment place for teenagers. I think if I open this business, I will be successful. Isn’t it a good idea?

Dreams..

Dreams show people's mind. These days I dream about my friends and parents. I usually see them in the cruise ship in my dream. I think that I miss them so much. Because of that, I dream the moment that I met them recently. I talked with them but usually in the end of the dream, I was sad. I cannot remember why I was sad. However, I can guess dream reflect current my feeling. These days, I am sad. I thought that I get used to live in Canada, but after meeting them in my wedding, I am so confused emotionally. It affects my dream. So I can not sleep well. Even though I cannot remember the story of my dream, I remember clearly how I felt in my dream. It is same feeling as the feeling that I have in real life. That is way I strongly believe that dreams show people’s mind.

Another interesting thing in dream is dream is the way to relief stress. Many people included me, when they are stressed out, they choose to sleep. After sleeping, they feel better. One of my friends is very good example of it. She is my best friend, and we had lived for 4 years during attending University. She is very kind and polite. She doesn’t like to argue with others. The interesting thing is when she has disagreement with others or complains about something. She fights with them in her dreams. Many times she talked about it while she was sleeping, so I could hear that. While she was having dream, she was very aggressive and tough. It was very opposite to herself in real life. I think that dream is the way of relief stress for her. Therefore, after dreaming, she can calm and deal with something in logical way.

Exploring

Can I say that I explore city? I think exploring city is only my experience in terms of exploring if I can say that it is one of type of exploring. I was born and raised in Seoul, capital city of Korea. It is really big city like New York. Many people, cars…… Streets are so complicated. So, living in Seoul needs for people to explore complicated city everyday.

However, I know that generally explorer means a person who explore new places or area that it has not known yet to public. For example, jungles, mountains, seas, islands and the space can be the places that people want to explore. I respect those people because they are brave and help knowledge to widen with discovering unknown things. It seems to look very adventurous and challenging, but I will never do it for a million years because I am scared for it.

I think that Canadian love to explore nature. They love to go camping during summer. Sometimes they can meet a wild bear. I didn’t understand what was really beautiful when I saw Lake Louise and Rocky Mountain at fist. It was just lake and forest. Now, I can a little feel why it is beautiful such as inartificial, peaceful, being able to feel power of nature etc.

Exploring is not my interest yet because I don’t have much experience. However, if I have a chance I would like to go Africa and explore jungle or small village which is not developed yet. Or I may want to go space if I could have a chance. I believe that people learn many things and also can grow up through exploring. Living in Canada and studying new area can be treated current exploration for me in terms of challenging new area. I am pretty enjoying so far and expect that I also have a chance to mature and become a better person through it.
