Home: Last Friday, my friedns and I went to Korean restaurant in 5th street. We had a lot of foods, but the problem was that I had to pay all of the cost. Because, we bet before we go there. The rule was like this the loser has to pay the cost for winner. And the bet was arm fight. Even though the challenger was girl, she was strong enough. Of course, I gave her some advantage. But, the advantage was killing me. Anyway, I lost the bet clearly and accepted the result. I don't regret because we enjoyed the time.
Class : Last Thuseday, we debated about our post room for debate. First of all, my one member of my group began to talk about her topic and her thought. And getting more and more we began to ask each other and our thought. Furthermore, we suggested each other if this research question is better or this research question is not fitable. My other member of my group showed her topic that was taking our own time is important in this day. When she said that, I totally agreed with her. Nowadays, the world keeps spinning wild and people are really busy because of lots of works. If we don't take our own time to recharge our stamina, we will have problem metally or physically. Then, When my turn came, everyone was quiet and tried to listen carefully. Even though I was shy to say that, I think I explained as well. Because, they suggested me research questions and debated very well. Furthermore, the professor came to our group and talked a lot. That was so meaningful time to me.

Class : Last Tuesday, we watched the left part of movie, Food, Inc. And professor told us the main problems and we discussed about the detail issues. Actually, one issue that made me shock was Kevin's Law. The law was made because of Kevin who was really young kid like 2-year-old boy. The happen began from a hamburger. After he had hamburger, he was died suddenly. The reason was E-Coli bacteria that was in the meat of hamburger. So, why there was like that much harmful bacteria in the meat? The meat was from some farms that produce not only healthy animals, but also died animals because of chemical toxic food. If the farmers can make money, they don't care what they produce. However, why does not government regulate this production? Because of the power of food companies? Did you get some items like money from them? Why the court don't pass the Kevin's Law until now? So many questions are spinning in my head, but still I can't understand.
Home : I want to ask to my all visitors of my blog. Have you guys tried Korean Bar-B-Que? I have not had it for long time. But, I had it last Saturday finally at the 5th street. Even though it was more expensive and less tasty than restaurants in Korea, It was still pretty good. I talked about E-Coli bacteria with my friends when we are waiting the BBQ to be grilled. But, my friend said that if we grill the pork, the bacteria will be died because of heat. Usually, those bacteria is supposed to be died at 40 Celsius degree. So, I agreed and had the pork a lot. So, I could get rid of all stress that made me bug, because I hadn't had this great time with my friends and food too. After long time interval, I could even breath. Class: Last Thursday, we watched and discussed about so long video. The video was showing and alarming how meat and grains are bad. The meat such as chicken, pork, and beef is usually seen in a supermarket. Like most of people often buy meat in there, the meat should have been fresh and health. It was total surprise problem ever. For example, chickens that are living under their farmers are eating so hazardous food. After they die, farmers should have not sent them to food companies. If they did not send them, they would lose their benefits. However, it is so inhumane. The farmers really disgust me. Not only me, most of customers have purchased those disgusting meat in any markets. Furthermore, because of the farmers, lots of chickens and pigs die. I can understand they die because of human because we eat chicken and pork foods. But, I mean the way to kill them are really crazy. If farmers feed healthy food and animals born enough, the environment system is supposed to be fine. However, the animals that do not eat healthy food die before born enough and that makes intercept reproducing system and destroying even human.
Home: Last weekend, I was so busy to prepare business presentation. I thought it will be easier because this presentation is second time in business class. But, my expect was totally wrong. In this case, I did not even know how to step into the overall frame. I was just wandering around the outline like simple compare? or introducing detail information? Finally, I got the exact focus that comparing two huge car companies. Then, I could write down all of information and make presentation which is based on that information. After that, I had to practice loudly. But, It made me shy even though there was no one in my home. Anyway, I hope I can do my best on my presentation day. Class: During last week, we talked about Ebola. And we watched one video. I have read some articles that is about Ebola like one person was infected in New York. But the video that we watched in the class was shocking. Because, one person who got Ebola was enforced to stay in a room. And we also talked about rhetorical analysis like what is the relationship of speaker, audience, and message.
Home: From last Friday to Sunday was so exciting time to me. Because, I had BBQ at the huge park with Korean friends. Almost 13 or 14 people came there to have BBQ. After that, I went to Canada. Even though I was so tired of driving to get the airport, I was so excited and hyped. In Canada, there is a huge Korea town. So, I had really tasty Korean food. As seeing what I wrote until now, I just had some good food. However, I really enjoyed and that's fine to me. Following what I had learned in this class, I wrote my own creative nonfiction essay: Meaningful One Month. 6 Ways to be a Hemingway-Level Productive Badass was one of what I had learned and discussed in this class and helped me to begin how to write creative nonfiction essay. So, my six steps goes like this:
1. Brainstorming First of all, I did brain storming to get some ideas. So, I stand up and consider about what I had done for last month or walked around. Then, I made a huge chart on a center and wrote down some events which are related with the main idea. Therefore, the main idea is supposed to be a theme. 2. Introduction Actually, making introduction is really hard to me even though I know my theme. As following what I learned in class, I just remembered that the hook should be important which means introduction should be interesting to people who will read my essay. If not, they lose their interest and feel boring. 3. Body In this part, I could start as well. Because, I could write my story following the time even though there were some grammar problems. 4. Conclusion I was stuck in this part due to I didn't know how to finish this essay up. Just saying like 'So, I had fun a lot' is so awkward and not interesting at all. Therefore, I searched on Google and asked my friend to get some ideas. 5. Check After done all of introduction, body, and conclusion paragraphs, there were supposed to be grammar problems or not matching sentences. Therefore, I double checked this shitty draft. 6. Revise Shitty draft is not done essay, so I revised all of problem taking look my essay from beginning to end of essay. class: So last week in class, we talked a little bit more about telling and showing and went over are reading assignments. One of are reading assignments we went over was "Everyone Knew I Was Gay Except My Brother" (I believe that was the title of it). So Mr. Mangini went over each section and had the class decipher between whether it was showing or telling. That really helped me get a better understanding of showing and telling because I would get them confused at times. We also went over another reading I forgot the title but it was about a woman name Henrietta that had cancer and they took her cells with out her knowing and her cells were the first cells that were able to stay alive and multiply and they were able to use them to treat and prevent some diseases. I still can't believe that her family never got paid for that. That's America for ya! We also talked more about are Creative Nonfiction Essay and what the professor is looking for. He mentioned some literacy devices such as Juxtaposition and Theme. He mentioned that if we have a series of Vignettes from are blog and were including them in our essays, make sure there's a connection between each story so that it makes sense. That's something I had trouble with when I was writing my essay but once I got into the flow of things, everything started to make sense to me.
home: I was preparing presentation for Business class. This week was very hard and stressful. I need to take some rest enough. Until i effort to prepare the presentation, I will get freedom and rest. Therefore, I would like to endure this time for freedom. 1. Class : Last week, we discussed about creative nonfiction. Creative nonfiction is literally nonfiction. So, I thought news articles can be creative nonfiction. But, opinion section in news paper can be creative nonfiction because there are the writer's opinions and the article is based on fact. Then, we talked about showing scenes too in the class. I can't understand exactly what it is even now. Just, I know depict about something.
2. Home : During last week, I hadn't done any special things that I can write and show what I've done. I just did study in school, go to gym, and go to sleep. This rotation was keep circling and killing me. But the ridiculous thing is I didn't feel boring. So, I just lived meaningless. Class : Last thursday, we did some group project like we talked about writing process and the three stories. We didn't know how to get started first, but one of my member leaded to choose main idea. So, we seperated our parts like some people draw pictures which are about main idea to show other groups and others write some sentences. At first, I didn't pay attention to do with them. However, I got paying attention and got interesting to do it. So, I think this one is not that bad to me. Weebly Question : I was so confuesd to post some pictures or music video, because this is first time to have own my blog. So, I've searched googel and got solutions of what made me stuck. Furthermore, my friends helped me a lot. Therefore, I think that I can follow as well. Personal : Last friday, my friend moved into another apartment. To celebrate him, most korean friends gathered in his house. His living room was not that small, because around 15 people had seat in there. So, we had dinner little bit and got started drinking. Our culture has special drinking culture such as game. Like Americans play beer pong game when they drink, we have game. But, there are so many games. Even though we don't know that game, we are able to know how to play immediately. Friend: Hey kk
Are you going to celebrate in there? Me: Yeah, I'm going kk I'm pretty sure kk Friend: I don't know the address Me: hmm kkk I know it Friend: Can you take me there? Me: Are you done to go there? I'm here kkk
2. Home: Seriously, I didn't do anything last week. The reason why I didn't was that I just got USA couple of days ago. So, my body was still tired because of time difference. I just laid on a bed and behaved like a zombie. However, my friends who are from same country came to my house and had traditional korean food. That was my only one what I have done. At least, I worked out at a gym for few hours to wake up my tired body. I think that I'm getting better and better. From now on, I'm going to decide to study much harder. |
