[Do you know River boy?] 13th day.

    Hi! I come back with book review. The book that I will tell you about is one of book that was written by my favorite writer. This book' writer is Tim bowler who is from England. Don't think about this book is story about a boy who is live in river! Actually this book is story about one girl named Jess.

  Jess is a  normal girl who loves swim. She was live with her mother, father also his grand father. Especially her grandfather is an artist, who always draw pictures wit out title. One day, her grandfather getting sick, but grand father rejects about go to hospital. Instead her family decide to go to grandfather's hometown village. 


     Jess see a picture of grandpa and it has title. The title was "River boy". In the village Jess enjoys swimming in the valley that located beside village.Then one night she see a boy swimming in the water, so Jess tries to see him but he always disappeared when she is getting near                      US version River Boy              with him. 


     Even though her family tries to hep grandfather, he is getting serious, and grandpa struggle to finish the picture "River Boy". Jess was so sad and tired to just watch her lovely grandpa struggle and can't do anything for him. At that time, finally Jess meets a boy who was in the valley. Jess tell to him everything about situation and a boy suggest Jess to draw picture with him.



     Next day, Jess helps her grandpa even thought grandpa against it. Finally finish the picture "River boy".  At that night, Jess find a boy who suggest her to achieve he grandpa's last hope. A boy ask Jess to swimming together until the sea, but Jess rejects it. But Jess heard her grand pa goes to hospital, she tries to find a boy early, but there wasn't a boy. She just swimming along the valley, river, until the sea. At the sea she see the a boy, but police rescue her and her parents tell her, her father was died. 
                                                                                                               Korean Version "River Boy"






      At the final of the book, Jess swimming again in the river as swim is the best part of her life. After I read the book, I still cannot understand what a book wants to tell to reader. Many of experts agrees this novel is the most beautiful novel and this is the best novel to describe life as river. This story can be strange because of "a boy". But I think by this fantasy, it makes novel more calm and beautiful. As my position, this story tell us people spirit is grow by the poignant situation in life. Also almost books written by Tim bowler has similar themes. 




     I want to recommend this book as book that awarded Carnegie medal  by win the Harry Potter.

[GLPS Story] 13th day

     Today is fourth week, the last week of GLPS. As we planed, we had PE competition with all of students in GLPS. We called that 17th GLPS Olympic! Each classes chooses student for competition. There was soccer, basketball, dodge ball, also sports that we learned  in GLPS camp.
     
      During the GLPS Olympic day, there's  something happened. It was final part of GLPS Olympic. An amazing athlete man appears among the most awesome highlight of a day of Olympic. During the day no one saw that man. Through that man Level 1 class got win! Every member of the level one teams are shouted with joy. But imminently, they tried to fine that man. No one saw him correctly, and no one knows him about detail, because he was so fast.


     Until now students, and PAs TAs even though  teachers who are in 17th GLPS Olympic, don't know who is he. Only thing is he has long limb, like long, think giant. This story will maybe lingered in people in this Olympic like mystery story.

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!


     I feel I just came to KMLA few days ago, but half of GLPS camp is already over.
I have only 9 days for this camp. Maybe I will never forget this camp.


     Actually, before I came to here, I was just sad. Because I stay in dormitory middle school. So winter vacation is heaven to me. BUT! I spent my vacation in here KMLA. I count how many days I stay at home, I is almost 2months per year. Then half of that days just go away because of GLPS. But I couldn't give up this camp, because this is mt first and last opportunity.


     First 2 weeks were terrible to me. Because I had many mistakes on my test for classes. Also I moved the class, it was make me really tired because I have to hurry to catch the lecture that I didn't learned. 


But I had days even though I was tired. All of thing in here were really nice.


     Pop song contest( we called it popcon), Dance Party, live with friend dormitory, classes, friends, teacher........anyway all of things of stories are get into my heart.


I hope I will finish this camp happily, and never forget it.

[Complaint] 10th day

     On January 9th 2012, it was after second self-study time in dormitory. It was almost 00:00 am, and I was so sleepy. So I decided sleep early, and I will do my homework in the morning.


     But you were calling with your friend, and laughing and talking loudly. I mean so noisy. So I didn't sleep early and well, also I didn't do my homework, because I woke up late! Through this, I slept in class and get yellow card because of  my homework.


     I need an apology, and I have to borrow you a lecture note for today's class. Also you have to help me for my late homework. I hope you promise to other friends that you will never bother s by your noisy sound.


     If you do not, I will call to our room PA.


     I look forward to your response.

[My Dream] 6th Day

The Dream.

   I think dream is world of possible. Even though we think impossible we can make it possible if we dream about it. Also this word "Dream" is good friend to me. Because it helps me to achieve my goals in my life.

I'll never betray my friend Dream. Even though problems bothering me, even though there's barrier in my life. I think I'm too young to talk about dream, but I decided to write it, because I think it is necessary to me.

When I was child, just like 7 or 8 age, I just thought

"I'll be an artist, because I love to draw pictures"

Of course my dream was changed, and I think it will change and change again, 

Once, when I was 5th grade in elementary school student I decided to be industrial designer. I think this is awesome job and I think would really love it as I research about the job. Until last year.

   Maybe it was very sad moment to me. Suddenly in my mind something appeared. I thought, 

   "I THINK IT IS NOT FIT TO ME"

   But I was thankful. Because changed dream means shows infinite other dreams.

   So until now I struggle to find my dream and complete my life. Also in 2012, I wrote new list in my bucket list that I will complete and plan my future. Even though it will be not perfect, I really want to see and imagine my future.

[A letter] 3rd day

    This is first time to write a post. I don't know what I have to write. So I want write about letter


    December 31st 2011 I received a letter from me in December 31st 2010. I sent it about one year ago, and I received it after a year. I was really excited that FINALLY I read this letter.


    During I read the letter I felt I'm really growing up. Me of last year hopes so many things to me. After I read the letter, I checked the purpose of 2011. There's 10 purposes, and there's one purpose that I didn't Achieved. It was...


"Read one hundred books in 2011"


   I'm so sad, but I tried my best. In 2011 I read about 96books. For 2012 I'll not decide about how many I'm going to read. My mind was, I'll read books for my self, for my future.


   After I read my letter, I wrote a letter for me in December 31st 2012. In that letter, I wrote maybe 7 or 8 purposes. An now I try to forget it all, because it is not excited when I know about the letter all over the 2012. I hope that the 2012 is really exited.
