Chain Writing

 When I wasout five years old, I discovered that I had a special talent. My special talent was making friends easily and English.

 Anyone can make friends easily;I make friends in a minute. As you will see, I talk a lot. In the U.S.A, it was my first day of kindergarden. I was so excited and walked up to a pretty girl. "Hi, my name is Ain(at that time it was my name.)" The girl was surprised by me. I was pretty nervous, what if she laugh at me? Yes, she did. I didn't know that she was the popular girl in school. She kind of smirked at me;I was sad. But I had confidence, I slowly walked up to a black girl, asking her name. In fact, she was very kind to me. Her name was Mia Pinto and she became my best friend in the U.S.A!!

 Slowly I walked up to other friends and they were all kind;except for that girl. Then, I went to the second semester. Class was different;Mia was in Class2. I met a girl named Gabriella. "Just call me Gaby!!" She was nice and cheery. I still remember Class1's friends-even boys. Hope, Gaby, Stella, Ethan,Jason.Jack,Mike...... Then, I went to elementary school. I became popular;more than the pretty girl. Mia and I are still contecting each other by Skpe.

 My other talent is English. At 'Show and Tell', I was speaking about a book I have. The teacher gave me a candy. I read books to my friends or little kids from nusery. In the night when I was the leader, parents were here to see us. I told a story we made more fluently than anybody. I got a great applause.

 Here I found out about volenteering. For the volenteer work, I helped teachers and was given an donut for that. I was so happy and got energetic. I helped more. Also, I helped the church people(I was Christian that time and the school and church was together)to gather money. I made a speech about god;it is really boring when I see the VCR telling like, 'Oh god thank us','Jejus help us' or something like that.

 I had three talents when I was five years old. I really appriciate my teachers and friends from Linworth Kindergarden&Elementary Scool Church. I miss you, Mia!!

Ode to Money


 Dear daring Money, you are little and simple but has a big meaning. If you weren't here, my clothes, food or I would not be here either.

 O, money, daring money, if you weren't here, my father's job wouldn't be here. He works in a bank, dear money. My family wouldn't have a happy life like this if you weren't here my money.

 Ah, if you weren't here, I wouldn't even be here. I would never be here. Money, you are very important to people's lives. I really need you this instant, oh dear money.

 Money, money, marvelous money. You are so popular all over the world. But you are different every time and somehow you are unique. You are also very colorful.

 In Korea, you are bronze, silver, blue, orange, green and sometimes yellow. Your face is also different each time. When you are silver, you look like a crane. When you wear green clothes from head to feet, just like a cricket, you look definitely look like King Se-jong.

 Oh, oh, money. Fantastic, fascinating, fabulous money. How dare you take the importance of my life, how dare you. Money, the only way that I can stop you is owning you.

 Colorful, fantastic, who would hate you? Possibly no one would. With you, I think I am in  a fantasy, because, if I have you, I could be the ruler of my class or something. This is how much I adore you, money.

 If you stop being the ruler of the world, I shall say that you are a very important thing in the world.
Money, money, the main-part dear money. Only you are the most usable thing money, in the whole wide world.

 Love,
Irene Park

A refelction essay about "Spring"

  Hello, everyone. I back at blogging! Did you see my argumentative essay about Joseph Kony? I wish you did. Today I am going to write a refelcttive essay about a video named "Spring".

  The video is about 10 minutes long and there is a young monk who ties rock to the fish, frog and snake. The elder monk saw that and ties a rock to the young monk because he did bad things. When the young monk found the fish and snake were dead, and the frog was alive. I felt sorry too because he killed living thngs. Can you guess the lesson of this video?

  I know that feeling because I once killed living things, too. When I was a third grader, I killed a bunch of ants. The reason is funny. On the last day of summer vacation, I was playing with my friends at a park. I left my chocolate there and when outside to play. When I came back inside, I was surprised that my chocolate was gone!

  I got a bit angry( because my favorite food is chocolate and I was very hungry then) and shouted out to my friends. I asked them, but they all said no. Just then, one of my friends, Jenna told me that she saw my chocolate. The ants carried away! I didn't belive it. I thought that Jenna took it and she blame on the poor ants. 'How can she be so dumb? Why would she blame on little ants?' I said to myself.

  Jenna said that she had proof. Next to the ant hole, there was a piece of chocolate! I changed my mind, and I said sorry to her. I decided to kill all of them in my neighberhood. Until now, you may think that I'm a bit.....strange, but don't think like that. When you see my profile, you can just see that I LOVE chocolate.

 I cannot kill ants with sunlight. So what I did was killed by water. I dig a hole and put a ant in it. Then, pour water. It was kind of disgusting, but oh my lovely chocolate! I could not resist that feeling. How would you feel?

 After I killed all the ants in the neighberhood, Jenna speaked up to me. The truth that she told me was shocking. She said that she ate all the chocolate. She thought that I would be angry. She hated ants, so she decied to make someone kill all the ants. She would've felt guilty, so she gave the turn to me! The truth was so shocking. I never became friends with Jenna again.

 Of course I never knew the truth. I was very guilty and so sad. The little ants were dead;just because of me! So, because of that, I moved to another neighborhood. That's why I live in another place than 10 years old.


 As you can see, this video's lesson is "Do not kill living things.". I really felt kind of gulity when I watched the video. The living things are important to anyone. The young monk did the same thing as me, and I really feel sorry for the ants.

  How would you feel if you were me? Watch this video and check out. Wonder if you've never done that before. Thank you and I'd love to share any ideas about my post. Have a good day!

Is Kony2012 right?

 There are millions and millions of criminals in the world. But somebody will bo the No.1 criminal. That's Joseph Kony, the cruel criminal in the world.

썸네일 Joseph Kony is a criminal in Uganda.  He kidnapped many kids in Africa to be a member of Lord's Resistance Army(L.R.A.). The boy were sent to the army to kill people and their parents and the girls were made to sexual slaves. Those were called "wives"of Kony, and I belive that he has about 60 of them.


This is Joseph Kony.

 Kony 2012 is a video made by Jason Russell and it is a video to make Kony famous. People do not know Kony; because Uganda's communication is not really advanced like any other countries. I think Kony 2012 is right and I tell you two arguments about it.

 First, this can be chance to educate people. Until now, I didn't even know who Kony was and what he did. However, by this writing calss, now I know that I have to beware of these people. Chidren may not know him; and that's the problem. If we make Kony famous, then he would be well known. Children can avoid him and when they grow up, they can say that to beware of this kind of people. Kony can be a good example for criminals.

 This leads to the second reason, this can make people in to action. There is an "Action Kit" and there are what people can do for Kony 2012. People can donate money one by one everytime. This can be a big help to people who are fighting with the "L.R.A.". I would love to do that even now.

 Other people can say that Uganda has less communication. Then how can Uganda people possably know when someone is coming? The goverment has given the communication support to the people.

썸네일 I will explain a bit more about Kony 2012. 20 movie stars like Anglina Joli and 12 political people together make a great job to the kids in Uganda and everyone in the world. Kony 2012 is right because this can educate people and can put people in to action.

 What do you think about Kony 2012? Do you agree with me? Or do you disagree? Thanks for reading and sharing your ideas are a great pleasure. Please look at this video.
