my dream

When I was a child who didn't know letters, I wanted to become a miliary woman. The reason was that their uniform seemed pretty. After growing up, when I recalled my childhood's dream, I cannot help smiling. At that time, except military woman I had a lot of dreams like many other children. However, after being an adult, I don't think about those dreams. Rather than being somebody in future, usually I think about something to do for the future. Studying English is one of the very preparations. I want to express my thoughts and mind in English without pause and understand even their meaning behind speaking. Being able to communication with other people who speak English can make my life wider than now. If another language is popular, I would choose to learn the language. Now if I say about my dream, it is to be ready for a person who communicates with others well. After improving English skill, I would like to travel to other countries. Even though I don't have good skill of language, I can go to another country which I want to travel. However, I think I can not only learn their cultures and thoughts more but also understand them more if my speech is fluent. Now, this is my hope but I expect to be reality.

my favorate holiday in my country

-> This is Songpyon

There are some big holiday in Korea. Among them, I love thanksgiving day, which is usually called Chuseok in Korae, the most. The first reason that I like Chuseok is a longer vacation than other holiday. When I was working for the hospital, I used to travel other country during vacation. If I use the day off, I could have almost 10 days for vacation. And also I could see all my family in Chuseok and talked with my parents and brother with eating delitious Korean food when I didn't have plan to trip. I was living in Seoul and my parents was living in Wonju and my brother was living in Deajon so we couldn't often meet. In Chuseok, most Korean people make rice cake called "Songpyon" and share with their neighbors. An important thing of reasons why I love Chuseok is special foods such like Japchae, Buchimgae and Songpyon. I really like traditional Korean foods but I can't often eat them because it takes long time to make them. I am missing the mood of Chuseok as I am writing about it now.

Particular place

This place is near Melose and Molmontrack. Whenever I go to church or Fairway, I pass this place. I took photos in the last weekend becasue the color of trees was so beautiful. This place makes me think of romantic movie in which a couple are walking on the road under the trees. And also it looks really foreign park. Since I didn't feel foreign in Iowa City, this place was special to me. Maybe Iowa City gave me comfortable, so I didn't recognize here was not my country but abother country. I named this area "central park" and I like this place near my house. Also, in front of this place, in the center line, there are some trees changed red. I like seeing these trees. When I saw this red tree firstly, I thought of the bush in Exodus in the bible. I imagined the scene that God called to Mose within the bush. So I named this tree "bush". Seeing these trees is pleasant to me. Somtimes when I pass by the place, I intentionally drive slowly to see the trees.
