I want alone time.....

I try to meet many friends when I have free time. I want alone time when I miss Korea friends. I hear friends about their jobs and wedding. Sometime, I disappoint my situation and spending time in Carbondale. During to stay alone, I write my diary or see my old pictures. It makes to feel comfortable to me. I think why I came to Carbondale. It changes a positive mind. If you want alone, you follow my way. It  makes to feel better to you.

As saram aleikum


“As saram aleikum,” the Egypt language, means, “I pray you have a peace." When I visited to Egypt, I ran fist language. I almost have done my dream. It is to travel the “Seven Wonders of the World”. I had seen Great Pyramid, Lighthouse of Alexandia, Statue of Zeus at Olympia, Colossus of Rhodes, and Temple of Artemis at Ephesus. I will visit to Babylonians after finding job. When I prepare my dream, I used to have to fears about my friends. They didn’t like my dream. They said, “You are crazy and change mind” because I didn’t speak English very well. I planed trip and made money. Finally, I was almost successful to my goal. If I will finish my dream, I will visit trip of world. Maybe, I will meet Anna.

Chuseok


In Korea, we don’t have similar to Halloween but we have a holiday that concerns the dead. The name of this holiday is Chuseok. This holiday is the harvest festival and thanks ancestor. In Chuseok, family meets the house of first brother and prepares to cook Korean foods such as rice cake, sweet rice drink and three color herbs. They gravity perform a religious service and eat together. Korea people believe their ancestors protect them. Addition, family play harvest dance and tradition game such as Yutnori that seems Monopoly of board game. It is importance to Korean people because it makes more relationship. Due to the fact that Chuseok has three holiday , I think Chuseok better than Halloween
