I will move on to English 101 this semester..

Last semester, i took English 030 or remedial English. My professor was fantastic, and i was pretty sure that I was going to skip English 001. I also liked the way he taught. Furthermore,I regularly did my homework and came to school every day. I usually sat in the front an listened to him all the time. When i had some questions which i didn't understand, i normally asked him during the class or after class. I always participated whatever activities we had in class. Unfortunately, Even though I studied really hard and attended school every day, i still didn't move on to English 101. I completely felt stupid and cheerless after knowing the result of English final because i couldn't believe what i had heard. My prof. was so disappointed of my test's result too. After knowing the result, i was completely crying so bad. My prof. told me he was going to fight for me. he said he would show the English department my portfolio, and he also said he would let me know the result by calling me.At that moment, i definitley felt cheerful and little happy. I was looking forward to hearing good new from my prof.for a few days, but i didn't hear anything at all. One day, A friend of mine went to chenck out her test's result at the English department building. Unluckily, she didnt move on to English 101 either. Instead, she will move to English 001/101. Finally, i have to take 001 in the summer and of course i will certainly move to Eng. 101 in fall. In order to be like that, i need to spend more time with studying more than with friends or anything else.

Bad day or good day

Today, I thought it was a bad day for me because there were many problems that happened to me this morning. First, I woke up so late, so I didn't do anything that i used to do, such as eating breakfast, Putting the wood into the fireplace, taking the garbage out. Then I left my house around 7:30 a.m. I went to my car and tried to open it, but I couldn't open it. I was so scared that i was going to be late for the school, and i did. Fortunately, my neighbor was around there cleaning her car, so i asked her for help.Then I had to take the ice off from my car. I spent time doing that for 30 minuts. When I arrived school, it was about 8:00 o'clock. I called pearl to tell Elaine that i was going to be late. When I got to the class, I was a little mad because some of my friend took my seat. So this morrning, I ended up sitting in the front. However, I am extremely happy today because I passed the writng test. I forgot everthing that happend to me this morning, even now i still have an awesome mood. I hope i have school tomorrow so i can take a placement test. Also, I feel so bad for some of my classmates who didn't pass the writing test. I want all of them to pass it....Thank you Elaine for helping and teaching me right from wrong. i mean( grammar)...

I messed up my essay today...terrible!!

Today, My classmates and I practiced the writing test in the class. First,The teacher gave us the essay topics and the booklets to write on. There were three essay topics. We needed to choose one and write about it. I chose the first one because I thought it was the easiest one for me to write about. However, I still had the problems with it. I didn't plan my writing really good at this time. There were various problems that I made on my paper , such as the orders, the ideas, the organizations, and the grammars. I expected that I was going to do pretty good on it, but i didn't. I messed up on my writing. I was so disappointed. I should done better than this. I had a really bad mood today. After I got home this afternoon, I have been studing a lot. On wednesday, I hope I do better than today. Thanks god! the essay that we wrote today was the sample one. If it was the real one, I didn't think I was going to pass it. Also, thank you for Elaine that gave us those sample essay topics to practice. It made me realrize that I need to think and plan carefully before writing the paper.

This semester is almost over...could u believe it!!!??

This semester is almost over. There is only nine days left. I'm so excited and cheerless at the same time. I'm so excited because I'm going to move on to the 4Th level, and I hope I will. However, I'm a little sad about that because I don't think I 'm going to have the same class with all my classmate again. I think I'm going to miss them a lot. Since I have been knowing them, they are all wonderful and fascinating. I will keep in touch with them even though we won't have the same class with each other anymore. However, I hope some of them have the same class with me. Also, we are going to have the writing test this wednesday. I'm a little bit stressful about that, and I think everyday does, too. However, I think we are going to be fine because we have been working and studying very hard since september. We just have to do our best in order to pass the test and move on. Finally, we sould have been grateful to Elaine and Marissa because they have been helping us a lot in this semester.

Angeina's pregnant again...

Angelina Jolie is a beautiful famous actress in Hollywood. She likes to adopt the children from other countries. She already adopted three kids from different countries , such as Vietnam, Africa, and Cambodia. She also has her own kids. Now, she totally has six children. She is the first actress who has a lot of children that I know. Recently, I just heard that Angelina is pregnant again. I was so surprised when I heard that. I didn't expect that she is going to pregnant again because she just gave birth to twins Viviene and Knox. I think she really loves the children that why she keeps getting pregnant. I'm still curious about that...I'm just wondering why she likes to get pregnant..????

Field trip at the planetarium in Manhattan...!!!






















Yesterday, I went to a field trip in New York city with a club's professors and friends. I thought there were going to have a lot the people on this trip. However, there were only few people. I was so surprised. There were only 10 students and 3 or 4 teachers. We went to the planetarium by bus. The bus was very big and comfortable. we could sit wherever we wanted to sit because there were many space to sit. So my classmates and I all sat at the back of the bus. I sat next to kay. Litbeth, keyri, and Axel sat next to each other. Then the bus left the college around 2 :30 p:m. While the bus was moving, Kay and I were sleeping. We arrived at the planetarium about 3:50. After that, the teacher went to buy the tickets for the show. The show was around 4:30p:m. While we were waiting for the show, We were walking around the museum. When I walked around, i saw many different kinds of planets. Each planet, there was a scale next to it. When you stood on the scale, there was no gravity. I mean the gravity was a zero. About 4:30, we went to see the show. The name of the show was the comic collision.It was about the planet case. The show was very exciting and interesting. When I was sitting and watching the show, I felt like the chair was moving. Also, I felt like I was on the space going to the moon and platnets. The show was only 30 minute. It wasn't too long. I wanted to watch more than that. Then, we went to see the christmas tree. The bus driver dropped us somewhere near the christmas tree. The professor told us to walk around and had something to eat for 2 hours. And then we would meet up at the same place around 8:15p:m. Kay and I were walking aroung the city together. We were taking a lot of pictures. After that, we went to eat food. By the way,we had a really hard time to find a restaurant, because we went to the wrong area. However, we got something to eat. After we finished our dinner, we went back to the place that we were going to meet other people. While we were walking back, we saw a lot of restaurants, and they had a lot of seats. Kay and I were laughing about that. Oh before we went back to the bus, we went to starbuck and sitting there for 20 minute. Finally, we went back to the bus, and the bus took us to NCC. We arrived at NCC around 9:35p:m. It was extremely cold yesterday.However, I had a lot of fun. I think i had a cold today..cuz i feel crappy..

Who get the heart..Conversation Lab..

On Friday, I had a conversation Lab in room 307 with Lisbeth and other friends from different classes. In a conversation Lab, we were talking about the heart transplant. Heart transplant is when someone who die, but the heart is still working he or she can donate to others who need it in order to continue living.(maybe i am wrong, I don't know how to explain it).Our teacher gave us the articles about it first ,and then she read for us. After that, we needed to make a group of three people and discussed about the articles. We needed to pretend that we were the member of the heart tranplant surgery team. In the article, there were seven patients who desperately need a transplant. We needed to rank the patients from# 1 to# 7 who needed the heart more than others. Then we needed to give the reason why he or she should receive the heart more than others. So lisbeth and Jiyoen were my group. First, we read and discussed about the articles. Then we made the patient in order from #1 to # 7. After that, We told the teacher about the rank......Finally, we compared the answer with other groups and talked about it... This topic was a little bit scare because it was a serious stuff to talk about. I think the heart is very important to your life. If you don't have a heart, it mean you are a dead person.Heart is your soul. Heart also represent Love.
I enjoyed talking about this topic..I had leaned something new..
