Post # 4 - Your LOOOOOOONG Weekend

In long weekend, I went to my uncle's house which is located in Red deer. I wanted to meet my

cousins and helped uncle's work. In Red deer, there is nothing to do, small city. I helped my uncle for

 reducing bunch of work. I just checked cigarettes and placed stuffs like pop, snacks and etc. After

finishing work, I used to play with my cousins. Playing baseball and going to swimming for how to

swim with exact position. And My aunt made Korean food for me. In Calgary I was hard to eat

perfect  Korean food. So when I ate the Korean food which was made by my aunt, it was really good

tasty.

It was a good time to stay with my relatives and I realized that immigrants are really hard to

live in a different country.

Post # 3 - Success

The definition of success is happiness. Money is not the vital thing in my life. Money is like a equipment to live 

better life. Some people think about the most important thing in their lives is money. They pursue the money for 

living their life. Money can't buy the happiness. The hardest way is to find the happiness. When I die, I hope 

that I think I had a happiness life in my whole life.

I have had many failure. Every failure makes me frustrated at this time. But the time is going, my feeling is 

better. I can deal with failure naturally, not making effort to overcome my failure. This is the one way how to 

deal with my failure. 

Don't get stress, getting your happiness in your life.

Post # 2- A Personal Connection to a Song

I would like to talk about "River flows in you". The pianist name is Yiruma. He is one of the famous

pianist in Korea. Actually I chose the different song as I wrote in essay.

Nowadays I often listen piano songs because I still have homesick. I miss my parents and friend,

especially girl friend. When I first listened that song, I feel relieved and comfortable. When I go to

bed, I listen that song and that song makes me remind my memories. I felt relaxed at this moment and

I had think someting a lot. I think some songs might make people feel alive. So that song can give

energy to me. I can overcome some problems or worries when I listen that song ! I wish you guys

listen Yiruma's piano songs !!!

Post # 1 - Self Introduction

Hello everyone !!

My name is DongMin. I am from Daegu in South Korea. I am 25 years old, Korean age is 27 years old.

I 've stayed in Calgary for 7 months.
The reason why I chose Calgary to study English is because of my uncle. My uncle have been living in Canada since 2004. He has been living almost for 10 years.
When I hesitated to study abroad, my uncle recommended to join University of Calgary ESL course.

My hobby is exercising. I usually play squash and basketball. Actually I am not good at playing sports which is using my legs, for example, soccer and running. But I am little bit good at playing sports which is used my hand.
Also, I like listening to music and watching movie. Recently I really want to watch Avergers 2. Some part of Averger2 background is in Korea. So I really expect to see Korea in the movie.

Anyway, I am really glad to see you guys ! 
Have fun during the spring semester~!!
