Actually, when my teacher told me to read this book, I thought that it's going to be a piece of cake(and it was). This book was about a 13 year old boy's life. The main character Adrian wrote a diary of his everyday life and most of it was about his family and school life of course. Also, as he is a boy, he was into girls and his little thingy. As i went on reading the book, just like other students have told me, it was a little unapporporiate for us.
Altough it was talking about what our age students like to talk about, it's our men secret kind of thing. It was a little shame on the teachers that they've chosen this book for our education. Now back to the stories. Well he always talks about his mom and dad in an 13year old boy's view. He thinks that his mom cheating on another man isn't real problem. He just thinks that the man is pretty kind to his family and nothing more. He measures his dick often and marks his size on a piece of paper. I saw the drama "the secret diary of adrian mole" and this part was actually really awful to see. I thought if the girls saw this movie to get a better understnading of the story, They would be really shamed of themselves for even thinking about watching the drama.
I don't really have much to talk about this book but just one thing. It was embarrising for me and i believe it was same for other student becaus there were too many indecent subjects that Adrian talked about. My point is that i don't know why our selected, gifted and talented teachers have decided to assign us this kind of book. Sorry for our teachers but this was the first time that i was disappointed at any of our teachers.

Sorry for getting this in late.
I've read this book before i got to hear from my english teacher that we had to read it for our assignment. However, I couldn't really remember what it was about, so i got to read it again. As i continued reading this book, I started to find out how i felt when i read it for the first time. Also, i could compare the feelings with the current ones.
I i first got to read this book, i was in Canada. My homestay brother assisted me to read this book and i told him that it looks boring. However, he kind of forced me to read it. The first chapter that was introducing and trying to show the background was really boring to me, but as i got to read the book continueously, it was touching.
I felt as same during my second read in BIHS (Well it came to me a little closer though). The part where Morrie says that he feels really happy not only when people do a huge favor to him but also when they do something really small but touching. The part really got into my eyes because I had the same feeling during my comparably short life. When i was in middle school, i used to get a little more chocolates than others in the school during the valentines day(yes, i am bragging a little). Well, that didn't really felt really romantic or something. In the contrast, when i started dating my lover in this school, I didn't really get much of a chocolate or pockies that i used to get. But the time when my girlfriend gave me one of those, it felt like heaven. Although i only got chocolates from my girlfriend, it felt much better than getting tons.
This book has remined me of many things such as love, voluntary spirits,,,and so on.
I would like to recommend this book to anyone who's depressed and thing they don't have anything intereting to do in there life.

Conservation vs Social Welfare
Conservation vs Social Welfare, Which one has the priority to be supported by the Korean Government?
This is obvious that the government should support social welfare priorly. This is one big stupid question. Although I know how important the conservations are, but there's no use if people can't live their own life happily and have the conservations safe. The government is using the taxes they got from the civilians to support conservation. People work really hard to make those money and pay taxes. If the government considers conservation priorly, there is no point of people working hard. It won't feel great to make money which is not for them and just for those stupid buildings and statues. The money comes from peoples pocket and therefore it should be used for the people. I believe that the government should consider more of social welfares than the conservations
building green
Title : Living Green - Building Green
Author : 이찬승, 황우연, 안세정, 구은영, 김진홍, 이종은
Publisher & Year : 능률교육, 2009
Vocabularies : N/A
Summary : In recent years, many people are trying to balance the needs of people with the protection of nature. For example, many archetects have built 'green buildings' .These buildings are designed to save energy and water and make use of materials that do not damage the environment. They are a little different compared to other regular buildings. They have large windows let the sunshine in, gardens on their roofs, systems to reuse water. Also, they use bamboo for floors instead of wood. Although there are only small number of green buildings existing, slowly but surely, the buildings are getting healthier and greener.
Comment : This chapter was pretty interesting. Those green buildings were featured with most of the things that i wanted buildings to have. I'm not saying it's perfect but i'm just saying that it had 'most' of the things in my mind. I wish they could have mentioned of more scientifical things such as those lights using sun energy. I thought that the article was a little boring because it was only focusing on those 'environmental things'. It was too old-fashioned. In the begining it said 'in recent years' but it wasn't really talking about 'recent years'. It wasn't talking about how science have made the world to be more healthier and greener. As I continue to read, i felt as if we are only depending on to the environment. I believe that many of the inventions of human have had helped our world to become greener.

about global warming
Global warming has become one big issue. It's becoming worse as time goes by. People know how bad the situation is, but it's hard to find anyone actually not destroying the earth. Most of the people use a refrigerator and it has a major effect on destroying the ozone layer. If the ozone layer is destroyed, then the global warming will be worsen. To stop the global warming, first people should stop using any sprays with freon gas. Most of the people know that they have to stop using them but they don't put them into action. That's the big deal. The real key to stoping the global warming, is to put them into action.
