Today, I was late for appointment with professor woods.
I totally forgot about the appointment and went home.
Fortunately, I suddenly remind myself that I have an appointment at 3:30.
Thankfully, I arrived to his office at 3:45.
I never ran that fast for more than years.
I ran from Huksuk station to his office in 7 minutes.
Trust me, It was not my best day ever.
After the appointment, I went to the hospital to get a type B hepatitis.
It was not a good feeling to get a shot after exhausting moment with my leg problem.
I don't know why but these day I have trouble going up and down stairs.
Whenever I walk in the stairs, I have pain with scream. It means that I have a lot of pain.
Until now, I had no enough time to visit hospital for that, but I feel like I have to make time to do that.

Students seek class boycotts for tuition cut
By Lee Hyo-sik
Students from major private universities are threatening joint class boycotts, forming alliances with civic groups and holding candlelit rallies in their campaign to cut tuition costs by half.
Student leaders at Korea University and three other private schools in Seoul held a joint press conference at Ewha Womans University in western Seoul Tuesday, demanding President Lee Myung-bak deliver on a campaign pledge to halve tuition.
Their move, supported by even some lawmakers from the ruling Grand National Party, is emerging as a major political and social issue.
They said they will jointly push for a one-day class boycott on June 10 as a show of their determination to have costs of university education dramatically slashed.
The four schools involved are Korea, Ewha Womans, Sogang and Sookmyung Women’s universities.
Student leaders said they will hold a ballot on either June 8 or 9 for all registered students to decide whether to hold the one-day boycott.
If the majority of students approve of the action, they will collectively refuse to attend classes scheduled between 4 p.m. and 8 p.m. on June 10 and take part in a nighttime candlelit rally in downtown Seoul. June 10 is the 24th anniversary of the 1987 democratization movement that triggered democratic reforms.
“It’s been over three years since university students hit the streets, with some of them shaving their heads to demand the Lee administration keep its promise of halving university tuition. But the government has been lying to us for all these years,” Sogang University student council President Kim Jun-han and three other leaders said in a joint statement.
They said skyrocketing tuition does not affect only a small number of students.
“It is an issue involving all university students. Only if all of us join forces can we bring about results. Now it is time for us to boycott classes and take our cause to the streets as the world watches us,” the statement said.
The move came days after student leaders at Hanshin University in Osan, Gyeonggi Province, organized a one-day boycott of classes, which largely failed to achieve its intended goal.
On June 2, the university’s student council asked students not to attend classes in protest of the school’s decision to raise tuition. But most students attended lectures.
Hanshin students and school management have been at odds over the tuition hike for this year. Students wanted tuition to be frozen at last year’s level, while the school wanted to increase it by 3.4 percent.
Members of the Korean University Student Association and various liberal civic groups held candlelit rallies at Gwanghwamun Plaza, central Seoul, Tuesday, for the 10th straight day despite warnings from the city and police.
The city administration refused to grant permission to rally organizers earlier, arguing the gathering could turn violent and cause inconvenience to citizens.
The Democratic Party (DP) and other opposition parties along with civic groups have been supporting the students.
Among the civic groups expressing solidarity for the drive to cut tuition are the Korean Teachers and Education Workers’ Union, the National Association of Parents for Cham-Education, the People’s Solidarity for Participatory Democracy, and religious groups.
On June 6, DP Chairman Sohn Hak-kyu and other key party officials participated in a rally with civic group members in support of the protesting students. Sohn told demonstrators that the opposition party will find a way to cut university tuition by half.

JU JUM!!!!! = pub, bar, and public house.
There was a JU JUM in my major group, English education at 5/25 on the first day of festival.
English education students had a blast time together.
I was in charge of Pa jun which is a Korean tradition way of pizza.
It has a lot of nutrition so it is a healthy food.
Probably, I made about 10kg of pa jun dough with flour, eggs, water, onion, pumpkins, and chives.
I burned some of it so I could not sell it, but it was still tasty.
My partners were Ho un, Yong gu, and Yun goung.
We had had trimmed all the materials so that we can be prepared at time when Ju jum starts.
While I was preparing for Ju Jum, my clothes were messed up and I had to change it.
However, I didn't really mind it. I just thought that it is all the process of doing Ju jum so I just enjoyed everything.

•Talk about developing your self-access learning blog. What functions and resources are you interested in?
•What barriers do you perceive? What do you attempt to especially emphasize in designing your SALB?
•Write and submit the details of your SALB plan on your blog. Your plan should include:
◦Purpose
◦Organizations (subcategories)
◦List of Links in each category
◦Planning (how to use it)
First, I have been updating my blog every week with a designated topic. Whenever I have time to upload a journal, I write a short story. I also decorate blog as if this blog is one of my house. I am interesting in all about making blog. In my life, I have tried several times to create my own blog or homepage, but I failed every single time I tried. Therefore, making self-access learning blog is one of my lucky chances I have.
The only obstacle I face during creating the blog is lack of technological knowledge. I am not that close with computer. It is not because that I am a girl. It is just because I don't need computer so I don't use it as usual as others. When I heard that this class will be taught by using computer, I felt two different feelings. One is that I will be extremely struggling to do well in this class and the other one is that this is fortunate opportunity to learn how to use computer without braking it.
I don't know whether this is appropriate to call time as my barrier. I am not grumbling about assignment that professors are giving but I really have not had enough time to make this blog a better one. I spend about four hours in a bus to commute and I take 6 hours of classes on average every day. This only leaves me 4 hours to do homework if I subtract 2 hours of meal time. I hope that someone would understand me and do not consider me as a lazy student.
The purpose of making this blog is to learn an effective way to teach students. By creating the blog, I can use this as a material for teaching. Also, during making process, I am accustomed to use English in writing because I had to write journals in English. In
The organizations of this blog is complicated which means that I applied lots of new skills and software in the blog. There are HTML/javascript, icons from widget, page heads, search box, lists of links and, profile.
I have a list of my favorite sites; Watch drama from Mgoon.com, listen to the music from Youtube and search from Naver. I also linked bbclearningenglish.com to get used to usage of english. Moreover, there are a plenty of sites that can help students to learn English with ease.
Even if there will be no one who is going to keep checking me to posting blog anymore, I am planning to continue blogging. I mentioned several times that this is my first time I have ever made blog and keep posting. Therefore, this blog means a lot to me. Even though I have to quite a lot of effort to do that but I am ready for it.
I feel grateful to professor who planned this class and put many efforts to help students like me to make the blog.

Jessie J - Nobody's perfect
This song is awesome. I just love the lyrics that says everyboy makes mistakes. It is true!!
Therefore whenever I feel guilt by making mistakes I listen to this song and make me feel better.
Option 1: Do you do Cyworld? Tell me how you do. Explain what you you like about Cyworld (strengths) and what you do not like about it (Weaknesses)
Yes, I do. However, I do not do it often. Whenever my friends force me to do it, I check my Cyworld homepage.
Cyworld is famous for its functions like finding friends and sending messages to friend in free. You can find anybody with a little bit of information such as birth day, gender, age, and name. I once read an article about this function that because of it, it became easy for many people to find their first love or reunite with old friends. There is also visitor’s book so if I want to leave message or have conversation with friends, I can use it as a tool without spending any money. In addition, it makes sharing a file convenient. All I have to do is just upload a file and let others download it. I can easily surf around friend’s homepage.
However, there are a few drawbacks too. Because of its advantages, it makes users distracted from their work. For instance, I turned my computer on to do homework, but when I turned on the computer I just wanted to drop by my homepage and see who have visited and left messages. I ended up spending more than an hour on checking my homepage and replying to messages. Moreover, when I upload files, it takes a lot of time. It consumes lots of time in decorating a photo which I want to post in my Cyworld and just in unloading. Furthermore, there is the number which stands for the number of visitors on the left corner, and this sometimes bother users. Because to some people this means the number of their friends, so if the number is low the user become depressed and feels like he has no friend. Not only that but also it suggest users to download a few system to listen music though Cyworld homepage.
