StreetDance

Blog Post #8 Assignment



     StreetDance is a movie about dancing which is combined between hiphop and ballet.  The main characters are Tomas(Richard Winsor) and Carly(Nichola Burley).  Tomas attends in ballet school, and Carly is a street dancer.  One day, her team members lost practice room so they are trying to find new place to practice.  Luckily she found a good practice room in the ballet school from a professor who is in the ballet school.  However the professor want street dance members to teach hiphop dancing to students who are learning ballet.
     At first, they have some troubles between hiphop members and ballet members but later they cooperate each other then it makes very good results.

     Before I watched this movie, I thought it might be just a movie about dancing but it wasn't.  I think this movie is very nice to think about mixing different things.  In this movie, there are drama, love, and romance.  When I watched scenes which are helping and understanding each other, I learned a lot and it made me thinking.  This movie is made in England, and actors are British so you can have a chance to listen British accent.
     I highly recommend this movie, and I guarantee you wouldn't regret it.

I can't understand about it.

Blog Post #6 Assignment



     This is my story which is I can't undertand about it until now.  It was happended last year in Toronto. 

     When I stayed there, I lived in a condominium.  It looked old building but I liked it because there were swimming pool and sauna.  One day, I went out to have dinner with my friend.  So we went to Korean town and we ate some Korean foods.  After that I came back home but when I tried to open the door, it had already opened.  I felt like scare and weird.  Then I entered my unit, my room looked nothing happended. So I thought I didn't lock the door when I went out.  But!!!!! 10minutes later I realized there was no my lap top on the desk.  I screamed and I was starting to find the other things.  Unfortunately, I couldn't find my Ipod, electronic dictionary, digital camera and including lap top as well.  Thief or thieves broken into my room and stole these things.  I couldn't be agitation.  So I went down to security office to let they know the happens.  So I explained about it.
But security guard said "I can not do anything." 
I was so upset. Also I couldn't understand why there are security office and guard?
So I asked him "There are some CCTV or Camera, aren't there?
But he answered "Actually it is not working."
This answer makes me crazy. 
So I asked again "What should I do? I lost many things."
He said "Just phone a call to police"

I never understand about his all answers.  After all I contacted police office, they investigated everything like fingerprinting.  But I couldn't find my valuable things.  Until today, I never understand about security guard's action.  I just regret I did have any traveler's insurance.

I was in the elevator.

Blog Post #5 Assignment


     When I was a child maybe I was 8 or 9 years old, I went to the house of the eldest son of a family with my parents because it was new year's day.  So we had good time together. 
     Sudeenly one of my uncles asked me buy a cigarette.(now it is illegal to buy alcohol or cigarettes without I.D)  When I was kid, if somebody ask to do errands I usually do by the way.  So I went to convenience store to buy cigarette and then I bought it. After that I headed to the house. Actually the house was an apartmet.  I took a elevator to go up at 1st floor 'Alone' because the unit was 15th floor.  When I was going up, the elevator was stopped so I though somebody push the button to go up.  But it wasn't......  Unexpectedly, the elevator was shaked for a while and then turned off the light......  I was frightened...
Can you imagin what I was feeling? Again, I was about 8 years old and there was nobody in the elevator.
I was crying and I could do just waiting. Because I didn't have a cellphone also the emergency button wasn't working.  I was more scared and I thought I'll die.  At that time I blamed my uncle seriously.
I cried for 30 minutes..... I feeled it was 30 hours...... then the light was turned on and I could hear somebody's voice.  I was so delighted.  About 5 minutes later the door was opend I could see many people front of the door because they wanted to use the elevator.  Unfortunately, nobody knew I was in the elevator.  They were surprised when they saw me.  So I could go back home in 'Safety' and I hitted my uncle a lot.
     Now that is why I don't want to live at apartments because of this.  Maybe If I have to live there, I should live under 5th floor.

p.s; I bought a new laptop today by the way.  I'm doing this homework with the new laptop with a good grace.

Unforgettable country "Morocco"

Blog Post #4 Assignment

     Today I'm going to tell you about Morroco.  Not just one of places or cities.  I 'm talking about an entire country.  Have you ever been to Morocco?  I have. Actually I went to Morocco not for just trip.  I visited there to do volunteer work.  I stayed for one month and it was summer from July to August.  When I arrived airport which is in Casablanca, temperature wasn't very hot.  Before I arrived I thought there should be very hot because Morocco is in the African Continent.  However Casablanca is like Korea in summer.

After then I moved to Fes where I did volunteer work, it was really hot and dry.  The temperature was maximum 50'C during staying there.  So Moroccans don't work around between 12:00pm to 4:00pm especially outside workers, one of Moroccans told me.  This is why if you go out in the night, there are so many people on the street.  I also usually go out and walk the street in the night.

     And there are many Moroccan foods. I want to introduce a few things. First, one of them is Moroccan bread.  Moroccans love bread so there are many kinds of bread.  One of them is taste like eggs bread maybe, it is very nice if you have it with a cup of milk.
The other one is a Date Palm which has sweet taste.  I think it is similar to jujube. Also there are a lot of tropical fruits.

     I traveled the other cities every weekend. I visited Casablanca, Rabate, Asilah, Meknes, and Marrakech.
Each city has each color or feature.  When I went to Casablanca which has lovely beach, there was very famous temple which is Hassan II. It is beside sea.  So if you go there, you can see both beautiful ocean and temple.

     And people was very kind in Casablanca.  For example, when I asked the way, the people smiled and responded it. By the way, Casablanca means White House in Spanish so there are many blue & white houses.

     When I went to Rabate which is the Capital of Morocco, the people look very busy.  there were many street stalls so when I walked on the street, the street vendors explained about their products and suggested me buy somethings. Also there were temples, I think there are so many temples because of their religion which is Muslim.  If you go to Rabate, you should visit Royal palace which is biggest one in Morocco and there is King of Morocco.  He usually stay there if he doesn't have special event in the other cities.

    

     If you have a chance to go to Morocco, I strongly recommend you go there. You won't reget your decision.  Also if you have any questions about Morocco, please ask me.  I'll tell you as much I know.
