MY FRIEND

I have a friend who is very paranoid. He is very hairy and he is good at basketball. He always calls me fat, but he is actually the real fat one. I don't know why he always teases me, I guess hes just jealous. He is very strong in very weird situations. I have another unfortunate friends. He is currently blind and deaf which makes him very special. However, he has ninja instincts that led him to survive in his life. I wish him good luck and I hope he succeeds like Helen Keller in the future.

Evangelion

Japan is very famous for their animation and cartoons. There are many manga and anime maniacs in Korea. Actually, it is world famous now. As you may heard of mangas like naruto, one piece, and etc, they are very famous, but my favorite anime was Evangelion. This was one time one of the most famous anime that made other animes companies bankrupt for being so popular. However, something that made this anime interesting and popular was the deep meaning for everything. This anime has a lot of philosophical meaning and somehow religious. It also has some controversial meanings. You have to watch this like three times to understand the story.





This story is about about monsters against mechas. Monsters called Angel destroyed half of Earth’s population and people are struggling to survive. Then, people started to make a new kind of weapon in order to defeat the angels. These weapons were called Eva. They are the only who get penetrate the angel’s armor. This gave a little hope to people who are living. This might sound like a normal story of monsters and robots but this is not it. The Eva represents Eve, the betrayer of god. Angels are the followers of god and the ones who are trying to help Earth. It is very ironic; it is as if the human livings are the ones who are the bad people. God is trying to change the world but humans are the ones who are trying to stop god’s action. I might be spoiling some of you people but then in the end, the world gets destroyed and the only ones living are the two main characters. Watching the ending, I realized that the author wants to tell us that this might happen to us too. People are trying to avoid death by making new medical treatments and technology. We might be the ones who are disobeying God’s order. There might be a judgment day like in Evangelion.

Purpose of life

What do you think is the purpose of life? Why are we even in this world? I bet everyone of you guys thought about this topic and wants an answer. However, there is no exact answer for this. Some people might think life is to have fun and enjoy, but then do you think you are born and made to have fun? Isn’t there are purpose for us you be brought to this world? I’m a christain and according to bible, god created the world and us, and he liked his creation. But there is no exact reason why he created us. The bible said that god and jesus are sinless but is this true? So killing everyone making a flood is not sinless?
Religion is just what people made in order to get an answer for this topic. They needed an answer and something to follower. It might be just a superstition. There might just not be a god. Human’s think too superior of themselves. They call other animals savages and barbaric but then I think humans are the same as those animals. Truthfully, we have no reason or purpose to live. Its is just our nature for us to live like this. Like what charles Darwin said, it’s the survival of the fittest.

Starcraft <3

Starcraft is a game that was made at 1998. It is a strategy game where you build, conquer, and destroys each other’s base. This game is still played currently and it comes out in TV shows. Starcraft is mostly played in Korea. It is part of Korean culture and it is considered as a sport. Something interesting is why do Korean’s still play this old game? Korean Internet is well developed and there are many games, but why do they choose to play thing game? What made them play this game for like almost 10 years? Something I noticed playing this game was that it was really balanced. There are different races and units in this game and they are equally strong and weak. There are so many different kinds of strategy to counter each other. Even though you are losing, you could do a comeback easily.

Hagwons

Every Korean knows or goes to one of these places. These places are like private lessons teaching many subjects. Koreans are mad about these places. The parents send their kids hoping that they learn something useful. Hagwon was meant to be something that help students improve their studies but is it worth paying 1000 dollars for some more education? There are 100 and thousands of hagwons in Korea. After school, most kids go to hagwon wishing to learn more things. Hagwon’s goals are to help the student’s education however it turned out to be more of a business. There are many fake teachers these days in hagwons. Because there are many people who go to hagwon, the teachers earn a lot of salary. Even though you go to hagwon, you cannot get a full education like how school does. Hagwon’s are a place that forces you to study so that you could succeed. You cannot depend everything on hagwon because it is the student’s decision if to do well or not. Its not like hagwon is going to send you to a good university. If you could study at home with full concentration, it could be better than the education than hagwon. In addition, when you go to university, you cannot depend on hagwon. You have to practice studying by your self. It could be sometimes useless if there is lot of kids that means more distractions.

Do we really need Mac books?

This year, the whole high school bought Mac books for educational purposes. However, is it necessary for us to buy Mac books? It was somewhat random for the school to tell us to buy Mac books. The school did not even ask the parents but to just buy it for school purpose. However, I do not think that Mac books are that efficient. First, why do we need a Mac book? People say that there are many school educational things in a Mac book, but so far the only thing that I found that helps me in school is I movie, and garage band. Then is it worth buying a Mac book just because of garage band and I movie? The school said that we would be able to use this Mac book until college. However, I think that this is going to be too old to use in college. Why didn’t the school let us choose to buy or not? I was planning to buy my own new laptop. Then the school made me change to use Mac book. I really think that it was a waste of money buying a laptop for school purpose. We have laptops in school but then why can’t we just use those. Because of laptops, it distracts our school studies and homework. Mac books are just pointless.

School Lunch =D

School lunch =(
Do you think that our school lunch is worth eating? Our school lunch somehow improved however I believe that the price of the food does not worth the quality. Our school lunch right now is about 4000 won. The amount we get is limited and there are only two kinds of food we can have. With that money, can’t we get better food? I would rather pay 1000 more and get a proper meal then a meal that makes me hungry with just one dish. Also if you have noticed, a lot of the food are canned which is very cheap. Its not like I hate the food but I rather have Mc Donald’s than the food they make. They should think more about their food and try to make more kinds of food. The food we eat is repeated and people will get sick of it. The food reflects to our studies too. If we eat better, food, the more we will want to go to school, and the better we will study. In addition, our lunchtime should be longer.
