My Adolescence

These pictures are showing my themes of my adolescence. My first pictures show English alphabets are my wish, which means, I would want to improve my English skill, also my speaking/pronunciations. The second pictures show progress reports and grades, are my pressures, fears and my worries. So that means I keep worrying about my grades until I get my progress report card this week. I fear that the grade might go down this few more days. The third pictures that show 5 groups of men, they are one of the famous idol group in Korea, call TVXQ (Tong Vang Xin Qi. Another initial is DBSk). I am a fan of theirs!!! In Korea, about 80 thousand people are in the fan club of TVXQ (Mostly teenagers). The forth pictures show many emotions, (faces) are my quality that I want to have more and less of. It means I want to think more affirmatively (positively), and try to keep smiling because I might look sulky when I’m not smiling. Also I want to have a very optimistic nature. I would like to curb my frustrations and try to work out the problem calmly. The fifth pictures show my loving personality with my family, and friends. I try my best to ignore and forget, and carry on with my life instead of harping on what or why my friends upset me. My sixth pictures show my hobbies, which are listening to music, and reading books. Usually I love to listen the Korean Pop music and like to sing along with it when I’m free. Furthermore I love to read books especially, fantasy books as they make me forget my fears and take me to another world. The seventh pictures show my habit, which is scribbling and making designs on my exercise book or any paper. I do this to express my feelings on the paper. The eighth pictures show my embarrass moment which was, when I was young, one day on my way to school, I saw my friend across the road. I ran towards her and hit her bag and shouted ‘hi’. To my humiliation, it was someone else and not my friend. Ah!! That was one of the most embarrassing moments so far. The ninth pictures show my feeling towards World Issues. When will humanity stop having wars about Religion. If I can change the world, I want to make people respect each others religion and not fight for it. The last pictures and the most important, is my ambition. I would like to be a good TV program producer and eventually anchor a famous show program. I believe in this quote by a world famous artist Pablo Picasso, “Action is the foundational key to all success.” It means if I do not take action for my future now, how can I be successful in future?

My most memorable experience this year

My most memorable experience was the FRIM Tirp(in our school). Because it was my first experience camping in the rainforest, also sleeping in the tent with friend. Also, I liked nightwalk in the rainforest, and the canopy walk. In the rainforest, the weather was REALLY hot and humidity, but it became my one of the thriller experience to me.

Weekend

I didn't really do & go to anywhrere. I just stayed at home on hole weekends. I watched TV show programs called 'Happy Together' and also I checked my mini homepage(Like facebook) that was someone put comments on my homepage. Also I did my school & Academy shcool homeworks. I had a test on next week in academy school, so I needed to study it.

Actually I was boring that time. I wanted to go anywhere we could!!!

My three goals

I have three goals this year. The first goal is 'Learn lots of different sports during the summer break.' Because I feel my body became stiff so I needed to do PE hardly. So during the summer break, I want so make my body more soft than now. Also I can learn different kinds of sports!!!

The second goal is read lots of English bookes and think about the lessons in the book. Nowadays I think I'm not really reading lots of English books when I was in 6th grade. So now, I will try to choose English books and try to read it and think about the lessons in the book. (For understanding).

The last goal is learn lots of English Vocabulary and memorize them. I think I need to learn more differcult vocabulary for spearking to other people, writing and understanding what is talking about myself. Memorizing will be quite hard to me. I know. But I will try.

These are my goals this year. I'll try to execute it!!!

A bottle comes from...?

Strange. I wonder where that bottle came from. The bottle was on the beach, in Malaysia, and it covered with shells. It was wet, so I thought this bottle crossed the sea, came from someone. Well, I think it was come from the sufferer from the uninhabited island. He might tried to send an SOS call, so he might putt some letters and map that he drew the uninhabited island. Maybe he is keep waiting right now that someone who’ll rescue for him. He will be lonely and solitude. I opened the bottle, and I read the letter what is it say. It says if you found this bottle, please tell rescuers that one man is disaster in the uninhabited island. My heart ached after I read this letter. He will be waiting a rescue boat everyday alone… So I told rescuers that one man is disaster in the small uninhabited island and showed the letter and map. I hoped he escape the uninhabited island safely.

Water Problem

We can live without lights, but we can’t live without water. Water comes from rain. Rain falls on earth and flows into rivers, lakes, seas and oceans. Water is really valuable to us. We drink water, use it for cooking, take showers, wash our faces and our bodies and clean clothes. Sameness, plants and animals need water for their life. But nowadays, new is announcing water is keep polluting, and a few years later, water will be insufficiency in the whole world. That’s became one of the huge problem to humankinds.

One of the reasons that water has become pollute is because of factories. Factories are one of the worse crimes that have made water polluted. When a factory is working, workers are let waste water is flow into the river secretly. Then the waste water is flow to the sea and then goes to the ocean. Another one is the leftovers (like oil etc) come from factories are soaking into the earth. Then, of course the earth is polluted. It might pollute underground water, and it will flows to the sea when it rains. The water is keep cycling, so it might keep happen. Another reason is that workers are concealing dirty gloves or other things in the earth. Also, it pollutes water. The reason this problem is happening is the factories are bothering to manage the waste. A few days before, on the news, the dyeing factory let waste water flow to the river. They got lots of warning from the official, but they ignored it. So finally they needed to close factory compulsion. But, the waste water come from dyeing factory will flow to the river, stream to the sea, and ocean.

If the water becomes polluted, we will need to buy huge amounts of water for washing, cooking, drinking, and cleaning. It will be very hard to buy it, because all people need to use water. So it will be expensive and there will be violent competition to get water first. If we keep ignoring this problem, this situation of running out of water will happen more quickly and become impossible to return to the beginning when we had enough water for our life.

There are three ways to fix this problem. First, managerial officers need to check factories many times and take care and keep watch properly. Then, give lots of benefits to model factories that are not polluting the water and protect it. Secondly, build the purification center for polluted water and do many check up at all times. Also, it is a good way to teach environmental pollution education and make remember it for the workers who are working in the factories. Actually it is the duty to build the Purification Center for the factories. But, lots of small and medium-sized enterprises think that a Purification Center is their option and it is waste of money to build that center. They need to think about their environment more than their money. Thirdly, use less chemicals that pollute the environment. Use nature chemicals as possible. It might be difficult to do these three ways to fix this problem, but it is our duty to save our water and our Earth.

Water is like sunlight to us. It means water is really important and precious to us. But water is slowly being polluted in the hole world. We need to stop this. Maybe it will be very hard to purify water before all of it is polluted. So now, we need to stop water from becoming polluted! If we keep polluting water, we can’t drink it, wash whatever we need to do, cooking for our meals, and cleaning our clothes. Then we might regret why we ignored this problem with water pollution. So let’s join hands and save our precious water, our future generations livelihood depends on it, save water now!!!

Spring Break

I didn't visit anywhere during spring break. I just stayed at home and did whatever I wanted. Because I had academy schools so I was busy for that. Mostly, I spent time like wathing television, reading a book, and just sleeping and did nothing special. Ah! Also I went to the shopping only one day!![But I couldn't buy anything T_T ] It sounds kinda boaring and irksome, but spring break became my realxing times and make me felt comfortable. >o<

My color poem

Purple, a mysterious color,

like beautiful twilight on that sky.

Make people became enrapture.

Purple, a lovely color,

like tiny flower Violet.

Make people notice and look again.

Purple, a glittering color,

like shiny purple jewel necklace.

Make people wanted to wear.

Purple, a mysterious color, a lovely color, and a glittering color.

Who am I poem.

Who am I?
Am I child or teenager?
Am I boy or girl?
I’ll tell you who I am.
I’m a sensibility person, who notices moods,
I’m a quiet person, sometimes not.
Sometimes I’m so unflinching,
Sometimes I’m a great troublemaker.
But, you should know I’m a person who is sincere,
I’m a person who wants to be friendly with you.
These are my real aspects.
Well, so this is me.

Leave Korea

I reviewed about my memory and I remembered about one of my sad story. About 1 and half years ago, I came to Malaysia, which also means I left Korea at that time. The reason was because of my dad’s business. So I needed to leave my friends, families (relatives), and my school. It was really hard for me to leave my important people and my country. I was afraid the day we went to the Malaysia.

On the last day of school, the weather was terrible. It was raining also lightening. Also my feeling was dark. I needed to leave my class after 2nd period. I felt melancholy when the time came closer and closer. When the 2nd period started, I could feel I had a headache. So I asked my teacher I went to the nurse. When I went to the nurse, all the classmates were prepared for my good-bye party. They drew some pictures and comments on the blackboard, and prepared a video and letters from each classmate. When I came back to my class, one boy saw me and cried “Hey guys! She’s back!” Just then, all classmates gazed to me and stopped what they were doing. First time, I didn’t notice why they looked surprised, but I understood when I saw the blackboard. The blackboard was filled with scribbles. ‘Bye Jiwon!’, ‘See you later~’, ‘I’ll miss you~~ T-T’. And they drew some pictures. The teacher ordered sit down to everyone and she played a video. The video was several people recorded it for say goodbye to me. I felt thankful to my classmates and teacher. Next, she gave me roll of papers. I opened it, and finally I knew these papers were letters from my classmates and teacher. The teacher called one of my best friends and ordered her to read her letter to me. She wrote really well… After my good-bye party finished, teacher said how you feel. I… I couldn’t speak. I couldn’t express how to say goodbye to my classmates also teacher. I was babbling like an idiot. I tried not to cry. Thankfully, some boys made a joke like ‘Hey! Jiwon! Acting!! Cry Acting!!’ so I could pass this difficult moment.

The time was never waiting for me. It came. It’s time to leave this school, teachers, and friends… I needed to go home quickly and helping people to move our stuff. I told my teacher that I need to go, and at last, all the students and teacher said goodbye to me. I replied and slowly came out the classroom and went down the stairs. Just then my best friends ran towards me and said goodbye again. And then, we hugged. I’ll never forget this moment.
When I arrived home, almost all the stuff was packed. My younger brother walked towards me. He was crying. He looked sorrowful that he can’t meet his friends forever… (?) ‘Well… It is really sad thing…’ I thought. I soothed my brother. “It’s okay. You can connect with them when you want. And you can make new friends there!” But… also I miss my friends!!! I wish we could have a chance to visit Korea, I want to see my friends!!!

Interview with my dad

I interviewed my dad for my adolescence project. So I could know many things about my dad. First, I knew that time, the world was divide Democratic and Communist, so all the high school students needed to learn the military training. It's call Cold War. Also that time, in 1973~1975 was the First Oil Shock. So the oil price was raised in the world. And the last thing I knew is when my dad was in teen-age, he likes to go hiking or traveling around with his rucksack(backpack). Nowadays also he enjoying the hiking very much!

FRIM Trip ( Canopy Walk)

Last week, all the 7th graders went to FRIM for 2 days and 1 night. FRIM is located in KL, and it was my first time to go the rainforest and camp. We did lots of activities on the 2days and 1night. My most favorite activity was the ‘Canopy Walk.’ I didn’t know what a Canopy Walk was before we did it on the trip. But after I heard what the canopy walk was a shaking bridge on the top of mountain – I didn’t worry about the bridge, but I worried about the hiking.
We went to the Canopy Walk on last day. We saw huge bamboo trees when we started to climb the mountain. The guide said, this bamboo tree came from Myanmar, and the flower of this tree is really hard to see. Luckily, we saw the flowers. The hiking was too hard for me. The slope was steep, so my legs were numb. I looked down my legs many times to see of there was a leech. The reason I was worried because I wore shorts. My water bottle became empty, but my lips wanted to keep drinking water. It was a hard time for me. Finally we arrived at the Canopy Walk. It was quite long, and looked really shaky. For safety, 5 people went together. No more than 5 people! Finally, it was my turn. First I stepped on one foot. It was quite shaky! I felt like it was an earthquake starting. I tried not to look down, but my eyes moved and looked down automatically. It was SO high! Maybe the height was more than 100m! But luckily, I don’t have acrophobia, so I adapted to this situation and enjoyed walking. I felt good when I stood on the bridge because I liked having the feeling of flying space. I turned around and watched the view of KL. I could see KLCC twin towers! I tried to find my house and I found my house in the fog. I felt delightful and I wanted to go home quickly. When I finished the Canopy Walk, I really wanted to do it again. It was so much fun, and it will be a good memory for me. I’ll never forget the Canopy Walk and also the FRIM trip!

' When I get older ' story

* This is just a story. Not real!

The generation changed. It became more comfortable than when I was young teenager. Especially the electronic products were developed than the past. So my daughter and son have a class on the internet. It is a Cyber School. They can meet teachers and friends on the internet. They only go to the school when they have important test. Also when I was sick in the past, I would go to the hospital and check my health, but now I can check my health in home on the internet. The doctor sees the patient through the monitor and prescribes to the patient. Also, robots are really useful in nowadays. They are helping a family affair and dangerous works for people. I have one robot for family affairs, so I can enjoy my hobbies when the robot is doing my work.
Nowadays, the life is easier than when I was young, but sometimes I feel I want to go back the past. Because that time, we needed to do our work ourselves, so we had responsibility for our work. But in today, the technology was developed, so we didn’t need to do hardworking. The reason is we can just sit in front of computer, and it makes our work easier. So, people will become lazy. I think excessive things are not good for us.
