Final Journal.

This semester was so excited to me because I met a lot of good classmates and teachers. I learned a lot of things in composition class because Sean always gave a lot of homeworks. hahaha. But it was not bad becuase I had many chances to write essays even though sometimes it bothered me. And I still do hard work in TOEFL. I hope to pass it in this month.

Hey, evey classmate, you are such a good friends to me. I think I will really miss you, guys. Please contact with me on Facebook. And Contratulation to do well on your semester!!

Baraka Film.

- Indonesia Bali’s traditional acting or playing.
A lot of people divided two groups and do acting together or separately. It looks
like asking and answering or fighting. In addition, every people was men, they
did not have women. They wore traditional clothes, and did acting around
temples.

- It was first time to see Bali’s
traditional play for me from media. Moreover, it was the first scene that did
not use background music in this movie. They input original sounds in this
scene, so it was standing out to me.

- I did not feel good or bad feeling, but I
felt wired feeling because I could not understand what they want to say and act.
And their facial expressions were so scary to me.

- Japanese subway stations’ scenes.
This scene made me think about my daily
life in Korea. In Korea, I always used subway, so I slept in the subway. Sometimes,
I miss hectic life because American life is sometimes allowed me to live looser
life than Korea.

Dear. Father and Mother

I really want to buy a new laptop because I need it for doing some work. I know you do not agree to buy it because 2 years ago, I bought a laptop that was so expensive. So, you thought I do not need to buy a new laptop. However, mom and dad, it is not good for my music work because they do not provide a program that school uses in classes. Every student use Mac computures, so I also need it for doing good jobs in classes. In addition, these days, Apple store does the sale every product because of Black Friday. It is a good chance to buy it cheaper than other days. I want to get a good grade in every class, so I really need it. Please allow to buy it. I love you so much.

In this article Kelly argues people have to understand animals for living together by friends and family. She said a lot of people depend on animals in every area such as life companions, medication, and so on (par. 8). Some people are seriously depends on animals, so they are seen
as a bit crazy (par.2). In addition, some celebrities enjoy hunting animals for showing their power to citizens (par. 3). She argues we cannot use animals just for satisfying our feeling or life because animals also have emotions and volitions. If we use animals for our satisfying, it just becomes to bother them (par. 9).
