Define Beauty

                Beauty is a combination of qualities, such as shape, color, or form, that pleases the aesthetic senses.  When a person thinks about beauty, they usually think of a girl that is very pretty. However, this isn’t the case with me. When I think of beauty, I usually think of food, cloth, and other stuffs. Beauty does not always have to deal with the facial expression. Beauty can be anything. Of course, the most common usage of beauty is by saying, you are beautiful. When a girl hears this, they become happy because beautiful means that you are pretty and hot. However, beauty does not always have to be that sense of manner. Although many people don’t say beautiful to foods, it can be used upon them. Beautiful is the pleasure of the aesthetic senses, it can be about color, shape, or form of the food. However, I also believe that beauty comes in the face.

                The first and main thought when you hear beauty is when you describe a person’s face or body. A person is beautiful if she has a cute or pretty face. This is the physical mean of beauty. Beauty can not only be described in the face. It can be of a person or a thing. My point of beauty also exists in food. When you see the color of the food, you usually determine if it’s delicious or not. This is the outside or physical beauty. However, the inner beauty might be different. A person with a beautiful face does not mean that she has a beautiful heart. The inner beauty should be focused more. There is a saying that a pretty face does not last long, however, the inner beauty lasts a long time. Therefore, when you marry, you should choose someone not only beautiful, but also who has a generous heart.

                Inner beauty is usually known as the personality of a person. If she has a beautiful inner beauty, that means that she is kind. If you say that the outer beauty is beautiful, you are usually referring to the face.  When you say something is beautiful, you usually think of the outside. In museums, there are many beautiful things that you encounter. The Mona Lisa is considered the most beautiful portrayal. It is considered as the beauty in art. However, if you look closely, she is not really good looking. However, she is considered hot in art. Why would this be? This is because there is an inner beauty that many people do not understand.

                When you think of beauty, Aphrodite comes into mind. She is a Greek god who is considered god of beauty. When you search about beauty, she comes up. This is the outer beauty. When a person describes Aphrodite, you usually describe of the face. They do not talk about how she is inside. There is two types of beauty and each have different types. Aphrodite is beautiful in the outside.

                Beauty is described as the pleasure of the aesthetic senses. It has two types. The outer beauty and the inner beauty.

If I was stranded on an island, which three things would I bring?

                If I was stranded on an island, what three things would I bring? This is the topic for today. This is probably an easy topic for me because when you’re young, there are many similar things that are related to this. If I was stranded on an island without any help, I would bring weapons, friends, and foods. This three things are most important in my life. Without my friends, I would be lonely. With friends, I can kill times whenever I want to. Without foods, well no one can survive. Therefore I chose these three things to bring to a stranded island.

                If I am stranded on an island, I would first have to make shelter. Weapons include knives, guns, and other sharp stuff. If I see a predator that tries to attack me, I will use my knife to protect myself. When I run out of food, I will go hunting with the guns. With weapons, I can do anything. I can make fire with guns and I can make food with knives. If I have weapons, I can signal if any plane go by. If you are stranded on an island, you always try to contact the people to come rescue you. Planes usually come and go if you are stranded on an island. The thing is that you miss them. If you have a gun or weapon, you can get the attention of the pilot and hopefully wait until the come to you.

                Next thing I would like to bring is my friends.  Friends are the most important thing in my life because they keep me happy and not bored. When you are stranded on an island, you are alone. At first you might be scared because you have never been to that place. Friends come in handy in these situations. They would help me if I was attacked by predators. They would help me make food. They would stay up until night giving me companion. Friends are important because they can not only talk with you, but you can share your hard feelings with them. If friends are there, I can laugh and talk with them. If you have friends, it makes everything easier. They give you advices when you need help, and if you do anything with your friends, you at least smile. If you are with friends, there would be smile everywhere. You would be teasing each other and laughing. Therefore, friends are important when you are stranded on an island.

                Last thing I would bring would be food. If you are stranded, the first thing you will need is food. The first night would be difficult because there would be no plants or animals that you can gather. IF you have food, you can easily eat them and start search at the morning. Foods are important because it gives you energy to go hunting, fishing, and all sorts of activities. They can also be used as a trap. If you cut a piece of meat and wait, predators would come. You just have to wait with a gun and wait until the predator comes in sight. You can then shoot the animal and get more meat.

                If I was to be stranded on an island, I would bring weapons, friends, and foods. This is because with weapons, I can go hunting and get food, and with friends I can communicate with them and pass time. With food, I can catch animals and eat when I need source of energy.

                So today's topic is what do I want on my tombstone? This is hard... because there are only little amount of time that I spent thinking about my death. Tombstone is a statue in front of a person's grave. I have never thought about my tombstone because no one ever wants to die. I have thought about other people's deaths, but I have never quite thought about my death. However, if I was to write something on my tombstone, I would first write my name and my date of birth and the country that I was born in. I would probably include a picture.

                If I was to write something on my tombstone, it would first be my name. My name is important to me because it tells me who I am. In Korea, there is meaning to each name. My grandfather gave me my name. Everyone has a meaning to their name, and that meaning can be determined by the letters. Each letter in a Korean's name means something. In my name, Kim means gold, Yong means rising dragon, and Kwang means a well. My name means that I will be like a dragon who will one day rise from the well and to the living world. My grandfather thought about this name because he wanted me to be famous. On my tombstone, it would say my Korean name. It would describe who I am and what my name means. Although name might be considered not really important, I personally think that my name is more important than anything in my life. It is what I got from my birth. My grandfather died when I was in age 3. Although I have little information of my grandfather, I heard that he always tried to buy me a lot of stuffs. He was always there when I needed help. He always guided me. He was the one who helped me walk when I was young. He held my hands and guided me to walking. Since my name was given to me by my grandfather, I consider it as the most important thing in my life.

                Next thing I would put on my tombstone would be my date of birth. Date of birth explains how old I am, and when I was born. The date I was born is September 26, 1996. This means that when the day that I die comes, people would know how old I am. They would know when I was born, and where I came from. I was born in Korea, and it describes of who I am Therefore, if I was to put something on my tombstone, I would include my city. It gives my ethnicity and how I would be proud to be a Korean.

                Another thing would be picture. Picture would be the best thing to represent who I am. This would show how I look like and how I would be. Many people look at a person’s face and determine their personality. In my opinion, I think I look kind. Therefore, when people see the picture on my tombstone, they would know that I would be kind if I was alive. I want people to think good about me. The picture would do a good job of doing that.

                Many people have never thought about their tombstone. This is same with me. I have never thought about my death and this is the hardest topic that I have encountered with.

Which has a greater effect on people's lives? Telephone or Television?

            Today's topic is whether deciding either television and telephone. Which has a greater effect on the people's lives? The television has a greater effect on people's lives than the telephone has. This is a topic that comes up often. Television was a lot of people's friends when they were young. However, nowadays, telephone has a greater effect on people's lives. I agree that both of them have a great effect on a person's lfe. Television is more effective when a person is young, and telephone, on the other hand, is more effective when you are older.
Television is a source of media that almost everyone watched at least once in their life. When I was young, I liked to watch the TV. My grandmother always liked to turn on the TV and watched it very close. I liked my grandmother and followed almost everything what she did. i was addicted to TV. Television have a great effect on child. When you watch television, your eyesights become worse. The reason why I am wearing an eyeglass right now is because of my grandmother. I watched it very closely with my grandmother. However, as I became older, I had less time watching the TV.
As technology advanced, more people are using the telephone than the television. Telephone, nowadays, can watch television on it. Telephone has become more affective on a person's life as the time passed. Before, television had a great effect on a person's life because there was no phone, however, after the invention of phone, media became easier. WIth telephone, people can now not only watch TV, but they can play games, and communicate with people. Telephone has a great effect on people's lives because they gave them a communication tool which they can use to interact with many people. Before the invention of telephone, people had to give an email to the person, and the person might not even be able to check that. However, after the invention, people now can easily message or kakao talk a person, and since it is phone, they will instantly get it.
  Telephone is a source of media. Telephone can do almost everything with a wifi connection. There are alot of apps out there that makes you watch TV. They can access other informations easily. With television, there is a limit with only being able to watch a TV show that you have to wait until it comes out. TV shows usually do not come out everyday. You would have to wait one week for that TV show. However, with phone, you can watch previous TV shows and you can just easily download it.  Also, the television can only stay in one place. You have to stay there and watch. People now became tired of that. They want to do many other things while watching the TV. Telephone comes in handy in this time. You can watch the TV and cook, and do other stuffs.
Telephone and television are both crucial media that people encounter in daily life. However, in my point of view, telephone has a greater effect on the people's lives because many people can access not only the internet and play games, but also can watch the TV anywhere.

Describe Success!

            Success is the accomplishment of an aim or purpose. Every once in a lifetime, a person thinks of success. Everyone wants to achieve success. Many people think success as money. However, I think that success be can described as happiness. Although you have lots of money, if you’re sad and depressed, you are not really successful. Success can also be expressed in pride.

            Money is the main thought when you think of success. This means that you have lots of money, a big house, and other valuable stuff. However, success doesn’t always have to relate to money. It can be a small amount of achievement. I mean by small achievement by winning a tournament, achieving driver’s license, and other minor things. When you ask a person have you succeeded in life? Many people will think they have not succeeded. They belittle themselves and treat them inferior to others. However, if a person thinks back to his life, there would be at least a small success that he achieved. If I think back to my life, there are a lot of achievements that I did. First one is riding my bicycle. When I was young, I was scared of riding the bicycle alone. I always had my father hold the backside and guide me. I was scared of falling down and scratching myself. However, as I rode together with my father, I thought I could ride it alone. Once, my father was guiding me through and I started to go forward as usual. When I looked back, I was surprised because my father was not holding my seat, and I found out that I was riding the bicycle alone. Small achievements such as this is also treated as a success to me.

            Another successful achievement in my life was beating my dad in arm wrestle. It was last year when I challenged my dad to an arm wrestle. Before last year, I always lost to my dad, however, in 10^th grade, surprisingly, I beat my dad for the first time. I consider this as a success because I’ve never been able to do it for a long time, and it was what I achieved during my life. Small achievements such as this can be considered as success.

            Success in my perspective is happiness. Even though you have a lot of money, if you are left alone without friends or spouse, you can’t call yourself successful. Although money is important, a good wife and friends are considered more important. When you achieve something, there is this weird feeling that comes. I think that it is happiness and pride. When I first got my part time job, I felt as if I was an adult. However, it wasn’t easy work. It was teaching math to my neighbor. I went 3 times a week and earned $100 in one month. After I got the money, I felt successful in my own way and proud.

            Success can be described in many ways, and there are many perspective of other people of success. People think of it as money, and having a good job, others predict it as happiness, pride, and others. Even the smallest achievements can be considered success depending on a person.

My bucket list

             Every once in a while, a person creates his or her bucket lists. Bucket lists are the lists that you want to do before you die. Most of the people just set their limits to a small amount. However, there is a saying that says the bigger you dream , the better the result is. So you have to dream high and aim high. My bucket lists includes, skydiving, going on a bag trip, and going on a trip over the world. Skydiving needs courage and time to do, and I lacked those over the past years. And going on a bag trip was my first goal when I was young, and I would like to keep up my goal. Next one is when I marry and have children, I would like to go on a trip around the world with my family.

             My first goal is to do skydiving. Whenever I go to Korea, I go with a hope of completing my dream. This summer, I tried to do skydiving, but I couldn’t. I decided with my brother to go skydiving together. However, when we tried to go, there was not enough time. When my brother was out, I had time to go skydiving. On the other hand, if he had time, I was outside. Therefore, it was hard to manage the time to go skydiving. If I could have, I would have liked to go skydiving in Korea. My bucket list before skydiving was doing bungee jump. Last year’s summer, I went to Korea, and I did bungee jump with my cousins. It was fearful at first time, but after I did it, it was pretty fun.

             My next goal is to go on a bag trip to either Europe or any other famous places. When I finish college and have time to do things that I want, I would buy a ticket to France, Italy, or other places, camera, and other stuff that I need and go on a bag trip. When I was young, my dream was to become a photographer, but as I grew older, I decided to put it aside as a hobby. However, I still want to go on a trip to France and just tour the country by myself. It would be challenging and tough, but it would be interesting because I would get to meet different types of people with different backgrounds. What I liked to do when I was young is to face different kinds of foods and cultures. So, I would like to go to different countries and encounter new cultures and new foods. This would give me a brighter eye to the world. I would also like to go to famous places in France and take pictures. This is my second goal in my bucket list.

             After I marry and have babies, I would like to take them to a tour around the world. Even when I was young, my parents said that they would go on a world trip with me and my brother. However, it would be difficult because my brother is at college right now, and I would be going to college soon. Therefore, my goal is to go on a trip when my children are young, and enjoy the time. I would like to visit Japan, China, Europe, Britain, South Africa, and all other places. When we go to Japan, we would all go to the onsen and relax our bodies. After spending few days in Japan, we would go to Britain or Europe and have a trip around Europe. 

If I would have super natural ability, what would it be and why?

             Everyone has dreamed of having a super natural power at least once in their life. There are many super natural powers that people dream of. Most famous one is to have invincibility or become super strong. However, when I would be given a super natural power, I would want the power to read someone’s minds. This is a power that most people don’t think of when they think of super natural abilities. However, I think that this is a good super power because reading someone’s minds can change a lot of things. I can first read their mind and give them suggestions that they would like to hear. Next, I can read their minds and get the answers that I would like to get out from that guy.

             There was a series of drama that I watched. It was a story of people with super power competing with each other. The title of the series was “Heroes.” There were many super powers that were appeared in that series. There was the power to steal other people’s ability, power to teleport, power to read minds, invincibility, immortality, and predicting the future. The character that had the super power was the character named Matt Parkman. At first, he didn’t know that he could read other people’s minds. So when he overheard people talking bad about him, he asked them what they just said and he started to understand his power.

             He was a police officer. When he got to the scene where a girl was missing in the house which was just destroyed, other officers said that the girl was kidnapped or killed. Matt Parkman heard a voice of a girl in the house. At first, he didn’t know that was the voice of the girl that was missing. However, as he got closer to the drawer that she was hiding in, he could hear the voice clearer. He could sense that the girl was afraid of getting caught hiding. He went in front of the drawer and told her that everything was fine and he was not a bad guy. He saved a girl using his power, Like him, I wish I could become like him and save other people’s lives if I get the chance to.

             The first reason was that I could read other people’s minds and give them the suggestions that they needed and wanted. When I was young, I started to think that if I knew the mind of the other people, I would not have to fight with the person I liked. If this happened, I could tell the person that I know exactly you feel and talk with the person and become closer to that person. This would increase my social skill.

             The next reason was that I could read other people’s minds and get the answers. Everyone has secrets. There are times that I ask something and they just say I don’t know. In this case, I could just read that person’s mind and find out the answer. I could ask the person if they liked me or not. And that person might say yes, but say no in the inside. Then I would know who to hang around with and who not to hang around with. I could also talk with animals and communicate with them. Ever since I was young, I wanted to talk to my dog. If I could read his mind, I could talk to him and be more close to the dog.

             Like this, I wish I could have the power to read other people’s minds.
