The Sunny day... (Character Creation)

    It was a nice day. The sun was shining and the nice sunlight came into John's eyes.
   "oh shit.", said John with his drawn face.
    He was skating to go school this morning but It was a too nice day. He dicided not to go school.  There was nobody to nag him or argue with him that why he did not go school. He hates sunny days becuse It is sunny and bright. He just hates it. He went to the candy store to get some candies before going back home. The owner of the candy store is his dad's friend. John has no mother since he was 3 years old and his dad passed away few months ago. He loved biking with his son on sunny days and It was also sunny day when he died by car accident.
"Hello, Mr.Krahn.", said John. "Hi, John. How are you feeling today?", said Mr.Krahn.
"I feel great but just don't want to go school today.", said John with a tricky smile.
    John looked around and took some peach flavour candies. Those are his favorite.
"You are going to get just three of them?", asked Mr.Krahn. 
"Sure. Does something matter with that?", replied John daringly. 
"Okay, Fine. What are you going to do today?", said Mr.Krahn with a sigh. 
"I'm going to see my dad tonight. Do you want to come with me?", said John with a curious smile. 
"You always say that you're going to see your goddamn father! He's dead. Don't you get it yet?", Mr.Krahn yelled at John with his pitiful eyes.
"You don't tell me like that. Please do not care about what I am doing.", said John, "I'm getting hell out of here now.".
"See you later.", Mr.Krahn said. "I will never be back here again." said John and got out from the store.
'I will never be back here again.'... This is the last words John said to Mr.Krahn.
    John used to be a nice boy, However; after his dad died, he couldn't handle his antipathy inside his mind and that makes him to start to hate his friends, any people who looked at him,and the world.

Volunteer at the Science Centre


I did some volunteer jobs during the spring break. 
One of them was at Okanagan Science Centre. 
I took care kids who are doing a science camp or something and helped them.
I guess the kids are in grade 2 to 4 and they are so smart...

Here's some pictures.


I still remember most of their names..







I don't really know about kids. However, They weren't that bad but just made me so tired.
"Kids are much smarter than you think"..This is what I learned from the job.


A Article from Lord of the Flies

The Kids’ Life after the Rescue from Island…

(When the officer found the kids in the island, they were playing their hunting game.)



The children, who were rescued from island 3 months ago, returned back to their common life. There were only boys, whose aged 7 to 12, and they had been in the island for a month without any adults. Ralph, who claimed that he was a leader of the island, had suffered from severe depression for a while after he was rescued. One of the reasons of his depression is from losing some of his friends in the island. The psychiatrist said, “Ralph does not speak much and he might lose his mind.” However, Jack, who is called “Hunter”, and Roger quit their choir and joined the boy scouts. “I’m going to be a leader of the group of the scouts”, said Jack.

Jaberi, yo my awesome buddy

"What should I write about on my blog?"
"Just put crap..I mean anything that pops up in your brain."
This is all what you said..

Good Point! But when I heard this, I felt like I have no brain in my head..Heck yeah, I have no idea!! 

Oh! You know what? I think YOU just popped up in my head.
I mean I'm going to write about you.




That 'YOU' is my best friend Jaberi. He is from Uganda and he goes to VSS. He knows well about computer or electric stuff.  He can even make and remix some music and I think that is so cool. 


He hates what I hate and he like what I like. This is the best reason that I like this buddy. He is so creative and funny that he could make fun of whatever he sees. He makes me laugh whenever I feel bad.



He is pretty good at Guitar Hero, but I beat him every times..
Actually not..I hope so..
We like playing Wii a lot in our friend, Hector's house, because he has lots of Wii games.


 (↑We were just being creepy in the pool↓)
We love swimming. We would love to go swimming to Pacific Ocean from Kal lake.






He has so many friends and this is just because he is so cool. I'm just one of them. 
We used to hang out with other friends a lot and we just did whatever we wanted.  





Actually, It's been a while since we hung out last Christmas eve. Holy crap! It's been a freaking long time! This is why we have to hang out at least this weekend.

My friend, Danny Moreno

Let me introduce my awesome friend, Danny Moreno.


Yeah. I miss you.

Danny, who is from Colombia, is my awesome friend. She was in Canada last year for 6 months, but she went back to Colombia in the end of January. She lived in same house with me and I had lots of fun with her. She is one of the best people in my life. We always think in same way and we are just happy whatever we do, which means we are good friends. She was the only one who is the most comfortable to talk with in English and that is why I talked to her the most and a lot! I miss her so much.

I don't even remember all what we did while Danny was here.
So, I'm going to just put random pictures of us here.
Not all of them just few..



With Danny in Vancouver


One of our memories is the Vancouver trip in fall. 
However....
Danny left her camera at home, so I let her take some pictures with my camera (most of them are blurred).
That wasn't that bad, but.. she had no idea about her wallet...
 Heck yeah.. That's Danny..She usually forgets her stuff what she needs every times.
Anyhow, We had so much fun there. 



=
She looks like Papa Smurf. That was Christmas morning and we had eggs benedict,which is our favorite


We did it. It was the first snowman for Danny.
She had never seen snow before she came here.


We love chicken wings with honey garlic sauce.


These are the last pictures of me and Danny in January. 
I don't think these are the last pictures of us in my life. 
We will hang out in Colombia or Korea someday at least before I die.

What am I doing in C-A-N-A-D-A?

 When I went downtown to swim with my friends this morning, I realized something is going on downtown. It was winter carnival,which was almost over when I got there. I've seen it last February when I just arrived Canada last year. Yea.. it's been a year to be in Canada which means I've been here for not that short or long time. So..what have I done so far? what the heck am I doing here? 


 Some people in the world including most of Canadian just "speak" English as their native language. Unfortunately, I'm not one of them. I was born in South Korea and I grew up there during the whole my life time. Many people in Asia learn English and most of them spend lots of time and money to learn English. I am just one of them. I think this is quiet unfair. I'm pretty sure none of you guys don't even think about this. YOU GUYS ARE LUCKY!! You just speak your language,which is the universal language of the world, and people whose first language is not English try to read it, to write it, and to listen and speak it! 


 Actually, most of those people can read and write it. Well..This is just because they start to learn it early and they try hard. However, one of the problems of learning English in their mother country is speaking part of English. They fear to speak. I know It's hard to understand for whom never felt this. This is because, they don't learn how to apply whatever they know to real world. And this is one of my reasons why I came here.


 I know that I should try hard and I'm pretty sure that I've learned not only English but also great and small indispensable things in life. This life is interesting but not that always fun. I'm going to talk about it later.
