Research Question

We lately got a new project of research paper from our professor Sean!
In fact, I am insanely into American comedy programs especially sitcom. I have enjoyed watching sitcom
since I was an elementary school student. I love sitcom. But, I could remember that my father did not like to watch kind of "silly program" that it just gives laughing by acting like an idiot. Inspite of my father's hate toward sitcom, I love watching sitcom. I was rather shocked and surprised by composition of American television programs because it was consisting of mostly sitcom. Whenever I turn on the TV in my room, I can see all kinds of fun sitcom. So, I enjoy watching sitcom almost everyday. Consequently, I became interested in sitcom and characters in it. Actually, I don't have any backgrounds or knowledge about sitcom. I just enjoy and like it. All I want to do on my research paper is to find more information about why sitcom became popular among people. I will connect closely with my view.

I read Ella's and Amy's blog:)

spring break

  I am counting down to spring break that will be the "big days". I'm going to go to san francisco by myself. I already bought my plane ticket to sanfrancisco. I will make specific plan to trip over there to go to all of the tourist attractions more efficiently. I'm very looking forward to do that because it is my first travel by myself. I have been always with someone. I guess that going away to the new place where I can not lean on anyone will make me much more independent. After having wonderful 3 days in sanfrancisco, I'm going to get a good rest with some interesting romantic comedies and American dramas. I can't wait!

if animals could talk with human beings

What would happen if animals could talk? What are some of the questions you would like to ask animals?

It is very extraordinary and interesting topic to me! If all animals have their own languages that could be possible to understandable to human beings, I would like to talk with snake and giraffe especially. I always wonder what they are thinking. It will be very fascinating to people at first ,but they feel If it happens in real, there would be great confusion in the sort of hierarchy between humans and animals. Animals will express their opinion as same as human and human will be harrassed by consciousness of crisis. Seriously, animals that have suffered from reckless destrunction of nature will try to fight against human beings.
I would like to ask them about the life of them. "Dear Mr. Giraffe. How do you feel the air on the height of you? Is it fresh? I also want to taste fresh air on your head. Can you lift me up on your head?" I have one more serious question to snake. "Most people think you are such a gross reptile. What is your opinion on that?"

best advice

What is the best advice you were ever given? Did you follow this advice? What happened? Alternatively, what is the best advice you have ever given?

    My father always care about me even he is living far from me in Korea. He dedicated to give me advice about anything difficult to me. I tend to take everything serious. I have many worries and I always worry about everything. When I plunged into deep thinking seriously, my father said "take it easy, don't think everything seriously. you have too many worries.". This is such a fitted advice only for me to overcome the difficulty that I  experienced at that time. I keep that in mind and followed his advice in real situation. Then, there is no need to worry about something. It was really load off my mind. And, I can do all the things with a light heart. I felt light- hearted and optimistic suddenly. My father helps me feel much relieved than before I heard that advice. It was the best advice I been ever given. Now I can do something difficult without any fears and worries.

American food

Prompt: What is American food? If your friend said, "Let's go eat American," what would you think he meant? Are hamburgers the only traditional American food? What do you think about American food? Do you enjoy any of it? Do you hate all of it? You could compare or contrast it with your own food or describe the causes and effects of the American style of eating.

If my friend asked me to eat out to have American food, I would think it meant as "Let's go to the In and Out!"and I might refused to go with my friend. As sean mentioned above, America has very short history. So, I think it is hard to answer the "what is the traditional American food". The United states of America is composed of people of various races and various cultures. In short, America is a 'melting pot'. Many Americans can enjoy the all kinds of food in the one country. When I think of the only American food,  I imagine 'fatty hamberger'. American prefer to eat something convenient because they are always busy. I like some of American food like chocolate fudge cookies. But I really hate all kinds of greasy food.

wanna be a optimist

I think it means that the person who has positive views on every ways can catch the chance in every opportunity, but the person who has negative views on every ways can not do that. I agree with it sincerely because I already have experience to miss my chance with negative views when I was a high school student. In fact, I do not know that I am a optimistic or pessimistic. But, I can tell everyone I have generally pessimistic views. For example, when I travel with my friend last week, we encountered a difficult situation with the ticketing of metrolink from LA to fullerton. We made a crucial mistake that we did not check the time on weekend. Finally, we decided to buy a new ticket, meanwhile, we have non-refundable ticket. It was our terrible fault. At that time, I viewed what happened in a negative light. And I was irritable and tempered to my friend. I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to my friend.
I had a car accident today 4:00 PM on my way to home from school in front of the TROY HIGH SCHOOL. Today was unlucky day…. I am so sad. I want to be consoled from other someone. I feel lonely. It makes me be pessimistic. I don’t want to. I really want to be a optimist. Please help. Help me god! Save me! Rescue me among the awful difficulties! PLEASE!!.....

My BFs in Korea and me

I always hang out with 3 best friends in Korea. Their name is Yeji, Sookyoung, Hyunju. Their types of act in usual and favorite food are very similar with me. When we eat out something, we often eat chicken because chicken is our favorite dish. And we have a lot of sense of humor. My friends are as tall as me. Average height of us is 160cm. we had once the same dream boyfriend in Korea. It means we have the same standard of beauty. We usually go to a movie when our casual time to see a romantic comedy. We have similar tastes in music, movie, celebrities, fashion. We always share common interests.
  If I find the differences between my friends and me, there is not much to say about that. Yeji is a believer in Buddhism and Sookyoung and me are Christian. Hyunju don’t have a religion. Yeji had a boyfriend, so she enjoys bowling with her boyfriend as a hobby. Sookyoung, Hyunju and me were totally single, so we had several blind dates. We met some hot guys there but, we chose the same guy. It proved that we have the same ideal type. We share everything because we are soulmate. People around me envy us because we always have such a good friendship. The sentence “Birds of a feather flock together” represents our relationship very well.
