To end this blog assignment...
Finally, its my 50th blog. I can't believe I wrote 50 of them. I really dont like writing. But this blog assignments change my view of writing. These blogs can be my precious memory to reivew my past in future. Also, I like Professor's teaching style. Some students complain about professor's way to teach but I strongly disagree. He could make this class much harder, like assigning essay homework every week. Can you memorize Hamlet? or other stories we read in the class? He could make final exam with those material but thank to professor that we didn't have the final. I took this class for my dec b requirement but this theater class was interesting. I also met some good friends.
My first project for electrical engineering
I made this last semester.
Very interesting alarm clock and usb charger.

Speed of airplane
Think of semiconductor stuffs like computers, cellphones or TVs. There have been huge improvements last few decades. computers get much faster, cellphones get smaller and powerful and TVs get thinner and provide sharper and cleaner images than TVs 10 years ago. Mechnical stuffs also get better than before like cars, robotics or appliances. If I think anything in my life, these stuffs are better than before. However, one thing that is not improving much is the speed of airplane. I am talking about regular passenger airplane. Their cruising speed is about 900km/hr or 600mile/hr. This speed is almost identical to the speed 30 years ago. With that speed it takes me 12-13 hours to go to Korea. Way too long. I hope the speed of airplane should improve like other stuff I mentioned above. If it flies 2000km/h(doubling speed), it would take me 6 hours:)
My second favorite beer
OK 4 more blogs to go!!! Yey.
Its 1AM now and I have a final tomorrow and Im ready. Right now, Im relaxing myself with my second favorite beer corona. Ive posted my favorite beer which is coors. This one has special lemon taste and I like it. My taste is little different than other men because most of guys like Samual Adams or Bud which has a strong taste. Forgive me, I really have nothing to write so I choose this topic. The snack next to corona is my favorite korean cracker called saewookang

These are the pictures of the last performance.
I could feel the enthusiastic atmosphere of the actors and actresses.
Although it was a pretty long play, they made it enthusiastic and interesting.
Their acting was nice.
After this performance, I somehow thought about the movies like , etc....
and my dream to be a voice actress when I was young....

I memorize lyrics first and then the notes.
I don't do that on purpose, it just is.
It is because I focus more on the story the song is telling rather than the melody, I think.
I love songs with lyrics that makes me think about a whole story of the song.
There is my favorite song that reminds me of a scene someone is standing in front of a door his lover lives in, and just cannot go in because of a reason.
and at the chorus part, it reminds me an image of pouring rain to the scene.
I like this kind of songs.....
the melody goes well/ matches well with the atmosphere of the story.
That's why I like the ost musics of dramas and musicals I think
Because they reminds me the scene and the story clearly

Finding faces
How many faces did you find in the picture?
I think I got eight of them.
Observing is a very necessary skill, I think.
When you draw, read, hear, see, or write, you need this ability.
The one who can observe better can recall better, catch the characteristic better
so write a creative and unique line about what people usually miss in the same thing.
Even when we watch TV drama or a movie,
some people who observe well watch more things while others miss those things
and can enjoy it much more.
They catch the symbols and foreshadows in the story......!
the last one
finally!! everything with 'the last' one means a lot. usually, it makes us feel great. of course only when it finishes on time and correctly. anyway, this feels kinda weird. finishing this class with this blogging......i guess it's better than finishing a class by handing the scantron for final exam to the professor. anyway, i learned a lot in this class. there were so many new things that I haven't experienced before. some of them were odd and annoying and some of them were interesting. wow anyway now i can remove this blog site from my favorite list!! great.
You people who are writing this and studying for the finals at the same time, remember that you guys are the best, don't get too stressed out, just deal with it!! lets all cheer up and hope you guys all have a wonderful holiday:)

Reading Sartre
"Man is nothing else but what he makes of himself."
This is what Sartre said.
I read his reading recently and very impressed by the idea of
a man makes his own future and is responsible for his choices.
It seems pretty simple but I think I've forgotten this.
After I read it, I finally could see there are countless ways that I can choose.
I was always worried about which field I should work in or which field I have talents in. However, I finally found out that I don’t have to follow the way I seem to be good at or more like to success in.
Even if there’s a way that I think I cannot be so successful, if I choose to take it, the way becomes my way. No one force me to follow the easiest way and there is no way that I should follow.
I suddenly could feel very energetic and hopeful thinking that I can be anything that I want to be.

after the last class
It was my first semester here in Stony Brook, and I'm going back to Korea a few weeks later.
I means it was my first and last semester here.
I could make most and best friends in this course. (THR104)
While we do the group projects and the game,
we talked and get to know each other.
All of you are so nice !
and I'm so sad I would barely see you from now on because I have to go back to my home university.
Visit Korea and Ewha University someday.
I want to introduce you some nice places and foods of Korea!! :)
I'm gonna miss Stony Brook and this class...!

How I knew the truth about Santa
Christmas is coming and I would like to tell you how I knew my Santa was actually my parents.
Most of my friends knew it by themselves - from their friends or seeing their parents sneak into their room with the presents.
But in my case, my parents revealed the truth all of a sudden!
I still don't know why they decided to tell me the truth.
I believed and never doubt that Santa was coming on the christmas day.
However when I was 9 years old, my parents called me and handed a sheet of a paper.
On the sheet was written about the origin of Santa clause and how the tradition started.
I was so shocked and cried.
My grandmother always told me that she used to contact with Santa and that's why he knows exactly what I want for christmas, and it was all lie !
I have a younger sister who is 9 years old this year.
She still believes in Santa and my parants seem to be worry about revealing the truth again...
But I don't recommend that way to tell her....

about Korean Education
In Korea, most of the classes that students take in elementary, middle, and high school are almost one-sided.
Many of instructors point out students can only listen and write down what their teachers tell them from textbooks and actually have no opportunity to discuss or express their own opinion in classes. I also did.
The most exams asked us to answer in multiple choices not our explanations or opinions. In other words, it is a very typical case of traditional education. So it took some time to get use to speaking in classes and writing my own opinion in university, although still they have most classes in teach-and-listen system.
Since I don’t have many experiences of my own, I get confused and don’t know how to manage it when the situation goes different from what I expected. So I think I need to have more chances to practice what I learn so that I can see how it works in real world and handle those situations wisely.
I think Korean educational system needs to combine both traditional and progressive. I mean, while students learn from listening what teachers say, they also should have chance to have their own voice and practice to write, speak -> share their opinion with other people.

future dream
I am interested in musicals, plays.
Recently I got new interests in projecting, directing and marketing stage performances.
For example, I want to import great stage performances in Broadway and perform them in Korean, and also export our original performances to other countries.
To do the job in the future, I think it’s essential for me to actually visit broadway, experience and understand about the fields, not only understand the texts.
This is my first time visiting USA and of courses I had never been to Newyork city.
I reserved for four musicals while I stay here.
I'm very looking forward to it....!

in my diary
From my diary..
It became weired after I translated it into English... ;-( BUT...

All wants to run away from the rain drops
when it starts to rain.
But if it pours,
it rather feels good when we are all wet like we're in a shower booth.
I wonder why.
Where is the line between them?
From where we can enjoy what we wanted to get away from?
If we success to get there,
that hard thing would be done by itself in a minute, very easily.
That's not easy
to get there.

Diary
Do you keep a diary?
I keep one. and sometimes I'm surprised about what I wrote in the past.
As time goes by, I forgot all the feelings about some events and decisions I made.
When I write something on my diary, I can reflect on myself.
I write most when I regret about something or when I'm so tired.
Writing about it soothes my mind and help me not to repeat the same mistake againg in the future.
If you don't write about the thought when it comes into your mind,
it is not only developed or organized, but you forget about it soon.
Reading the diary is also enjoyable.
You can look over what you did in the past... and recollect the memories....

Optical Illusions
I want to introduce some fun optical illusions !
All the squares seem to line in one big spiral.
But if you look at this picture closer, you can see there are many circles with squares and
they are not connected to each other.
This is just a painting not a moving image.
But it somehow seems like moving.
This is also a painting which looks like there is a wace on the picture.

The white dots between the squares blink black and white.
But it's optical illusion.
