[Think] The terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001

The ninth anniversary of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, was marked on Saturday by the memorials and prayer services of the past, but also by events hard to envision just a year ago — heated demonstrations blocks from ground zero, political and religious tensions and an unmistakable sense that a once-unifying day was now replete with division.

The names of nearly 3,000 victims were read under crisp blue skies in Lower Manhattan after the bells of the city’s houses of worship tolled at the exact moment — 8:46 a.m. — that the first plane struck the north tower of the World Trade Center. At the Pentagon, President Obama called for tolerance and said, “As Americans we are not — and never will be — at war with Islam.”

I thought that the scene is movie but it isn't. That's a real situation. I was so surprised and shocked. That incident was not only a very serious accident but also impacted the society. The effect of the incident has been contiune.

[Movie] Inception

(wource link : http://movie.naver.com/movie/bi/mi/basic.nhn?code=52515)

'Inception' is my style movie. I heard good comment of the movie through my friends. After heard the movie, I tried to watch it but I didn't go to theater. When I watched the movie in a little while, I shouted "That's the movie!!"

I like a thriller and drama. I feel enjoy when I watch a movie with a complex situation. I'm interested in solution and mystery of situation. 'Inception' is very interesting movie. Movie story is like this.

'Inception' means inputting information in one's thinking. Cobb is not only thinking guard but also thief of thinking. By accident event Cobb is wanted and received from major company that want to do 'Inception' to competition company. Cobb orgarnize the team for 'Inception'.

The movie is a little difficult but it is this movie has interesting. Being Analysis the movie when watch it, you fall in the movie.

[Life] My Chuseok Plan

Chuseok is Korean tradition holiday and our most important holiday. At this year, Chuseok is a long holiday September 21, 22, 23. I don't attend school on Monday so I have a straight holiday from sep 18 to 23. So I planed what to do this holiday. And I decided to have LASEK operation today.
LASEK means Laser Epithelial eratomileusis (Naver term dictionary). People who can't receive operation because Retinal Detachment thickness is very thin have LASEK operation.
I'll have operation first with my life so I'm very scared. Specially, I'm worried about the operation because I have sensitive eyes. Besides, I heard there is many ache after operation. I'm very frighten but I'll put up with inconveniences. Why? I want to see the world cleanly.

[Class] Presentation review

 Our team presented "Essential reading skill" today. I was nervous because I'm first time presenting in English. Besides, our team of turn was first. We thought positively and prepared the presentation. We divised part of presentation and made a script and PPT. We presented and was easy to understand. I think the best thing we did is explanation easily. Luckily, we finished well and learned presentation skill in English. It's the point that I understand before presentation. I'll practice presentation step by step.

[News] Appointment for professor

I saw this news and more had a shock than I thought. I want to post up this news article.

This chart show 'the professor graduated oneself's school by university'. This article suggest like this.

"Many universities such as Seoul University, Yonsei University, Korea University tend to appointment a professor graduated oneself's school. Now, The Official Appointment Regulations regulate the number of people to graduate the other shool above a third. But there is no restrict regulation so almost university disregard."

I have saw such as this attending university. There are professors that they graduated university of themself. I think this situation is very usal but I don't think that such a thing's numerial is above regulation. The number of chart is too much figure. I wish expand an opportunity of becoming professor.

[Think] Being alone

If I should choose to be alone or to be with friends, I'll choose being alone. The reason is that I can get many things when I'm alone.
First of all, the time alone give me the time that I can think past, present, future. I like thihking about me. Beacause I know me better through the time.
In addition, I can have a freedom of choice. When I'm with friend, I tend to follow friend's opinion. This is not that I don't like it. I can just have a chace of choice and enjoy it.
Also, I can hear my voice of inside. So I don't be swayed by many people.
This time makes me more mature so I'll have a plan that I send this time alone.

[Food] A restaurant "Rice&Pasta"

I went to a retaurant "Rice&Pasta" in myung dong today night with my boyfriend. We were so tired so we went into somewhere, called "Rice&Pasta".

[Life] I love black color!

I like black color because black is very simple and sensible. So I like to wear black colored clothes.
Today, I searched autumn clothes that I will wear this season. There are various clothes such as shirt, skinny jeans, pants, dress, cardigan. Most of all, I love black cardigan. Cardigan is very useful item when weather is very changeable as these days. I have some cardigan but I want to buy new cardigan that I don't have. Cardigan that I want to get is like this.

It's very usual and useful.

 

It has point color and is made a little thic material.

[Movie] 아저씨 (A Gentleman)

I want to talk about a movie '아저씨(A Gentleman)' that I watched.

Main story is like this.
Tae-Sik was personnel agent and lost his wife because of an accident. Now, he works pawnshop. He make a friend So-Mi who is a child uncared-for her mom. One day, So-Mi disappeared. So Tae-Sik search So-Mi and find her.

In my opinion, this movie is very stimulative. Some people said, "Oh~ It's so interesting! Won-Bin(Tae-Sik) is very hansome so I can feel love." Absolutely, Won-Bin is very very hansome, wonderful, and nice guy. But movie wasn't nice. Tae-Sik killed many people. There is too much violence in the movie. So I almost cried. Anyway, I don't say to you to watch the movie.
