Happy Thanks giving Day.

Each Thanks Giving Day which is the 15th day of lunar August, my mom prepares new rice powder to make a kind of Korean rice cake, Songpyeon. After mom finished preparing materials
for songpyeon, all family members sat together around our table to make Songpyeon. My grandmother used to talk us that if we make songpyeon well, you would have a pretty daughter after you marry. My grandma's rice cake was really pretty and delicious. Lots of our relatives visit our home to share talking and some joyful game, Yut, which is a kind of stick game. All inside of our house filled with various food smell: savory Korean pan cakes, sweet songpyeons ,traditional beverage," a sweet rice drink", and etc. Usually, my sister goes back to her workplace earlier than other guests who visit their home for the holiday. So, I was so sad. For the holiday, lots of people head to their hometown at the same time, this brings traffic jam; however. people repeat this event to share their thank on Thanks Giving Break.

A Calm Garden

Under the light or sometimes, strong sunbeams, I could read a book at the garden of house in Iowa city before weather change. In our garden, there are two white wooden chairs. Our garden's size is not large; however, some divese flowers bloomed as if a bride make a shy smile at her groom. Roses are my favorite flower. Sadly, there were no roses. During reading books, I could here song of brid. The sky of Iowa city was really high above our garden. Whenever I was in garden, I felt joy of nature. Now, because of strong and cold weather, it is hard to meet beautiful flower faces. Then my favorite plave is gone? No. I am waiting spring to see the beautiful faces again.

Be lovely like a fall

I grew up in countryside of Korea. Every fall, I could smell of new rice on the field wherever I passed. Deep blue sky, lots of dragonflies flying in the air to here and there and blooming cosmoses on the road gave me a great pleasure to feel fall. There is an interesting story that if someone caught a leaf which is falling from the tree, he or she could meet his destiny in a few period. So, when I was a high school student, me and my friends tried to catch some falling leaves. Sometimes, I think that scene when I pass under the tree. Oh, I have a fun memory. When I was an elementary student, I always drew poster for preventing fire in the mountain in fall, because fall is dry season. A few days ago I wanted to take pictures a big tree having colorful leaves where in front of my house. Also, a red car always is parked beside the tree. They matched perfect. However, now the beautiful leaves are gone. Fortunately, I can still see other beautiful scenes that leaves are dancing with fall wind outside of my room windows. In Iowa city, I could see wonderful landscapes like background of fairy tale stories. Last fall, I did not know that fall passed because I worked so hard. ^^* These days, I can enjoy seeing beautiful leaves.

Give Your Heart.

My house is center of our small town in An myeon do. On the way home, after finishing my work,I could smell good near my home. And then one word came out from my mind. "Who would be today's guests?" My parents really love to talk with neighbors or friends ,and treat something good to them. In my memory, I have hardely seen that there are no people in the evening at our home. So I know something small detail family history of my neighbors. One day, I questioned my mom. " Mom, do you know the reason why lots of neighbors visit our home often?" Mom said to me " Kyung hee, In my opinion , the reason is because Dad has a good personality." Always my mom respects my dad. My parents always discuss something together. My dad has never decided anything by himself whitout my mom's agree.

When I was in a serious problem, My dad told me with grabbing my hand , " Our daughter, Kyung hee , I stand beside you. Do not concern about it. " My dad surpports me and other siblings like those warm words when we have some not good situations. He teaches me words and behaviors with all of your heart can help your friends certainly.


Just hearing the word, family I can take a rest. Therefore my parents show me what family is.

I do not want to make friends with stressor~!

Iowa is my newest friend. I will introduce my friend to you. After arriving here, from one week later
I've visited library. The important thing is not visiting library but seeing rain drops several times in one day. I like rainy days although it is uncomfortable to move. Clear, big and white clouds can let rain fall to the ground. I really like to see the falling rain scene and listening to the falling rain sound. Because I was in area which can avoid falling rain, I might be happy. Unpredictable weather makes me to raise preparation skill.

My friend ,Iowa does not have lots of Korean food. So when I miss Korean food, Iowa teachs me to make other style of cooking. But it does not work to me. These days I really would like to have my mom's meal with my family. Speaking with my family can reduce thinking of Korean food. Aparting from famliy is my stressor. But thankfuly, I knew one thing, I love my family than when I was in Korea. From the moment ,when I start to think of something to sterssor, it will be certainly my stressor in my daily life. So I usually try to think some stressors to positive side. Or I try to do my best in in my daily life. One of my best buffer is sleeping with listening to music such as The way to school, by Noh Young Shim.

My favorite movie genre.

The lion king, Beauty and the beast, Shurek, the ice age, a mermaid princess, Pocahontas, Mulan and the power of one are my favorite movies. Those are animation movies except last one. Last one is about growth of a boy. I like all kind of movie genres dealing with family love, growth of life and happy ending movies.

Now, I would like to tell the lion king that is one of my favorite movies. I cannot remember when I watched it first, but I can remember the all beautiful scenes. The most impressive scene was Simba’s act. He found his father’s big footprint on the ground while he was going to his father to hear father’s scolding. He compared his foot size with fathers. At that time neither he nor I could understand what the scene mean. My parents’ shoes were just too big for me. Now I really miss my family. In this movie, I could enjoy some nice music insulted in the movie. After Simba’s father died he took a journey passing through desert and jungle with his friends. An exciting music, Hacunamatata, could listen while I was watching it. Finally Simba became a great lion king and he got back his kingdom from his bad uncle. Surely good thing can win at the end. People can catch the hidden meaning in the movie although it was animation movie.

Not complicated but containing valuable lesson in the movie, this is my favorite genre.
