Stop AROUND TRAVEL/JUST DROPPING IN TRAVEL

    A long time ago, A travel that gives unforgettable experience me was preparing.
We, my five friends and me, named challenge, and called our journey as TWCT abbreviated by the whole country tour because we're still young and it was impossible mission to others.
   
    Our goal was to visit a hot spring, Back-Am, located in border between Gyeongsang and  Gangwon province and stayed one-night among two-night, and the other night  in the car since we didn't have much money. A friend that only had driver's license among ours took father's car, the rest of ours got the money, travel expenses, eighty-thousand won, seemed to be sufficient. At last we started to travel our destination.

    Although time goes by 6 hours, we were still in the road where we were not, we are all  too tired and looked for parking place to stop the car for sleeping, but could not free parking log anywhere, and we parked place where no one were and slept without washing face.

    According to our schedule for trip,  we should reach the point half of total distance, but it  was left more than half to the destination. Although the fact made our disappointed, we all were very hungry and ate breakfast that cost for four-thousand won per person, and then gassed up our car and give twenty-thousand won for charge. Afterwards, when we knew that we just forty-thousand won,  one of ours talked to us we we had to give up our trip, or we could not return to home, nevertheless, our leader, calling himself  because he is older than 1 year, persuaded with us talking that if we gave up now we could not have chance to travel together, and so our trip could continue toward our paradise, but I did't know we wanted to go to the springs, Back-Am, so far.

    Anyway, although the lack of English skill prevented me from writing more funny thing for reader, we could reach at Back-Am spring tomorrow night late. For getting a room at a hotel within springs area, we went in the hotel and asked a room hotel staff for one-night, but we have to come out outside the hotel, since room rates was too high, hundred-thousand won, for one-night stay, even though off-season. We're surprised and shocked.

    We were obliged to look for other place for one-night and lodged at a house near back-am -springs area.
The house host, a private residence, ask for thirty-thousand won for one-night. Next morning we see the Back- Am springs from a distance, imaging us in the springs, we should return to the hometown. As soon as we arrived at home, we're harassed by our parents forgetting that they worried out when we disappeared.

    After 2 weeks, We had a secret meeting without parent's permission and is fully determined to travel again if we were adults. But it is not keeping our promise.

Week XI- Homework(Free Topic)

    Recently, there are two important issues, FTA and high tuition, in Korea. These influence many korean and seem to change common life either toward good or bad.

    This agreement, FTA abbreviated by Free Trade Agreement, especially between the Korea and the USA,  causes most people to fall into confusion. Someone for FTA argue that FTA leads Korea toward powerful country, while someone else against FTA prevents treaty from ratifying in National Assembly desperately talking that we are completely ruined. If you are korean, you should know the truth about FTA, but we still are hard to do vote for or against because of lack of knowledge and time. What we should not forget is the fact that our decision make descendant happy or unhappy.

    Some countries, known by welfare state in Europe, don't receive any tuition or school fees at all, or they request students a little quantity of money quoting education professionals,if someone could do something without cost, someone have tendency not to do something hard. What a friendly  thinking is to us. We've already known our rights to be capable to educate something that we want to learn is written in National Constituion, but in reality we are living having to paying goods that we want to obtained, even precious thing such as human's dignity.

    As you already whether know or not, in anyway, other country's some politicians believe that all things is all goods, that is, so we could be part of goods although they do not argue in the presence of national people frankly. Such politicians argue that if we want to raise our competitiveness, I still don't know why all we should compete for good things that might believe or not, we have to apply market place to all things. That is very dangerous way of thinking, as I think, nevertheless, such principles of  market specialist is wide spread into all country.  As a result, we accept that we have to pay for much quantity of money to th school without any doubt.

What do you thinking about that?

Week X- Homework

    I would prefer to live in the city. I was born in Busan, maybe the second biggest city in Korea, while  My father have lived for a long time in the country, his birthplace called as HamYang town , but he needed to get job to make money for family, and finally moved into the Busan. Some time ago my father brought me there,namely HamYang, since he wanted to show me place in where he was born, in addition I can visit father's elementary school. At that day, I didn't knew reason at all, but  I feel so comfortable. There were family less than one-hundred, They all were so kind people like never to touch dirty things,  and when I went around there, I could breathe the more fresh air than ever before. Also, as I  thought now, if there is Heaven in the earth, it seem to exist just paradise here, so I sincerely wanted to live there though for a moment. But I never find out what I could do there and what I wanted to do there, especially there, though I could live there for long time, like father, when I will grow into a man and get job that I want to do, I might go out there unavoidably. Such making decision is very terrible, so I couldn't not choose easily to live in the country.

Week IX- Homework

    Recently, I become so depressed, though I already know why it is. Before I go back to school, I'm making computer software applying to new technology such as collective intelligence and ICHING. When everyone is capable of getting information that want to know, I think our society gets better than now. After I return to school, dedicated-time at classes is increasing to great extent, that is making me give up making computer-software, so I can not think about software anymore. I admit  it is more important for me to learn given subjects, nevertheless, I feel so sad and miserable in fact that I have to delay or give up making software, though it is not so long.
