Upcoming Week

         

















  This coming week will be a disaster because it has a lot of long tests and projects. Long test is really tiring to take because it's long,,,,,,, Science, Math,English and SS have long test and also we have to submit our mandarin and SS project.,,,,, I think I am good at cramming, but I think this cram will not be easy. ㅠㅠㅠㅠ I think 4th quarter is really short and can be easy to get grade but also has high possibility to get low grade because one test affects our grade a lot. Next Next week is our final exam and I should start studying from now on. I am thinking that I should study now for my subjects and just review what I studied everyday to not forget. I think I also have to make my condition good because I am having a headache now because of lack of sleep(:))))))  I think Chemistry teacher is ok but I think the subject itself needs a lot of time to study and reason why we are not doing well in chemistry is because we don't study. Honestly I rarely study for my chemisty tests because I don't know what to study. I will try to study hard for chemistry and also SS because there will be a lot of memorization. I think I should solve a lot of exercises by myself in studying for chemistry and math. Now, I will study for my science and SS long test tomorrow.

Jazz

            I take cello lesson every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. I started playing cello as a kid and I was forced to do it because my mother was Violinist. Nowadays, something really came to help my nothingness to my music life. That is called Jazz. First, My father told me to learn guitar because I wanted to learn it because it was cool. When I was learning, I met a lot kind of music. Something that came to my heart was jazz. It touched my heart and I wanted to do it. That time, I was doing clarinet in Brent and I wanted to change my instrument because I began to like jazz. That's why I started learning Contrabass. I impressed other with my Contrabass, so people suggested that I should play Bass guitar. I learned it and join the band. The name of the band was Jazz Holic. The Band Included Bass, First Guitar, Second Guitar, Saxophone Vocal and Keyboard. The vocalist had really unique voice and I liked her voice. From then on, I loveeeeee Jazz. When improvising a song, you get to feel the music. But something happened today. I take cello lessen and I decided to quit cello because I really don't like it as my hobby(It looks cool but it's not cool:( My father told this to my teacher and the teacher taught me with kind of dissapointeness. After the lessen, my father and my teacher wanted me to continue learning it because they said it will be helpful in my future. I disagreed them saying that I should have a right to choose my type of music because they said Jazz is music is music that is only played in Bar. I was disappointed but I told my father I can't continue something that I don't like and he said OK. I really want to continue doing Jazz. I want to introduce my favorite jazz songs.

Prom

It was my first time participating a prom and I felt a lot of things. First, I went there with little expectation, but I was really surprised with quality of food and facility it provided. The Hotel itself was kind of luxury hotel and I enjoyed the food that they gave us . The setting  of mic and every system was nice. Another thing I enjoyed was the songs they played. The shows they performed was not really good but it was above my expectation. I didn't know the prom was this big and nice, so next year I want to perform something and have fun there. Also, I wish next year will have more people participating and coming to the party, Like not going in the middle of the show:) And I wish I hear more romantic songs not rock songs. Like this one

Malcolm X

               Today, I watched the movie called "Malcolm X". First, I watched it in English but it was hard to understand them, so I downloaded Korean subtitle and watched the movie. I found the movie interesting because the movie was about raacism. The movie seem tragic because Malcom died from his preacher. The Muhammad guy was really bad because he betrayed malcom. In this movie I learned the behavior of human due to him. The movie was easy to understand and I learned a lot from it. I also learned things that white did to black in 20 century. But what bad thing about this movie is that it is 3 hours long ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ. I almost slept during some parts, but at last I enjoyed the movie.
             I will tell you the basic summary. Starts with Malcolm making his hair straight to look like white. He goes to a club and meets white woman and have an appointment :) But later, He and his friend and white woman was caught doing a robbery and they go to prison. The two black boys are sent to jail for 8years and the others stayed for a year. After coming out, he decides to work for muhammad and be a agitator for black movement. He works hard but his fame made muhammad to use it and he felt betrayed. He still works hard being an agitator but he was shot by muhammad later.

Twitter

Twitter is becoming an new sensation around the world,but Why? Is it too simple or Just right?

Here are some reasons why it is famous

1. It’s not complicated. Just type in the tweet box and tweet. How simple is that. Also You could only type until 140 character, so it is not messy. 

2. You feel popular:Everybody wants to be famous. Admit it, when your follower number increases, you feel really happy, don’t you?  Twitter makes you feel famous and wanted. 

3. You get new friends: It can make really good friends more bond than actual friends.

4. You express your thoughts.Tweet gives you chance to express your opinion. It will make you tweet any even jokes and what you feel today because you have an audience to listen to. 

5. Celebrities: Celebrities are the reason why thousands of people join twitter. You can be updated on what they are doing recently. 

I also have account on twitter and I use it to be updated what my stars are doing.

Report Cards

In this Week, we got our report card. I wasn't thinking of getting the report card because I was really tired after submitting my social project(I learned to do things earlyㅠㅠ). When I saw my report card, it was not bad until I saw my science grade. Our classmates struggled in science this quarter including me. I think the topic about gas law was easy but topic about atoms were hard. I think this coming quarter will be more hard because we are doing organic chemistry. It is really complicated, so I decided to study before the lesson. The goal in this quarter is to get all grades higher  then A- . I really wish that I could get A or A+ in science to improve my grade for this semester. I want to go to College of Engineering, and I have to get good grade in Science and Math. I will lessen my time of playing games and wasting my time to study even one minute. I think change is made when we try and I will try. 

Sleep during classes?

       When you are sleepy and can't concentrate during studies? This can be said that you can't concentrate because you are sleepy. This also can be reversed and said that you feel sleepy because you can't concentrate. 

First, You should check your sleeping time. 

You have to sleep to release pressure and need energy for daily studies. You should make schedule of your sleeping time and to make the schedule with pattern. This will make your bio rhythm healthier. 

Second, Way to wake your self from sleeping during class 

Put cold water and drink it when you are sleepy. Also stretch and straighten your body during break time and this will make you awake. 

Third, Can't concentrate? 

If you can't concentrate, take all note from the board and listen to everything the teacher says. You also have to preview and review the lessen and take note of lessen earlier to see the difference between what you learned and what teacher says. If you take note during classes, it will make yourself too busy to sleep. 

Fourth, Change your attitude  

Don't think about sleeping before coming to the class. Try to think positive and think about what you will learn today and anticipate. This will be really helpful because doing what you like is the best thing you could do to make yourself happy and concentrated.

It can be hard to change everything at 1 second, but If you try, it will become your habit and this will make your study life way better than before.

 I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.

Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other.

Start with refreshment

         Tomorrow, I go back to school and start studying again. It was really relaxing week and I think I rested really well, but starting tomorrow is the new start. I felt a lot of thing during holy week. I went to church and prayed about what should I do. He answered me that I have to do a job that will spread god. I thought about it and I came into conclusion. I first have to study hard to choose a job that I want. If I'm good at studying, then I can do anything that I want. Like a lot of people, Our resolution of something lasts only a week, but I really wish that that is not for me. I will study hard until the end of this quarter and to not be lazy(my biggest problem).  

Rest

This week is a break and I wanted to spend it really quietly because it is commemorating god, but my friends wanted to see me, so I am going Clark for my short vacation. I'm going to Fontana and it is a water park.  http://www.fontanaleisureparks.com/. I think rest between studies are important. I'm going to tell why  

                                                                         Increase Efficiency

If you rest, You can finish work 2x faster. So how good is that, rest and work but 2x faster. 

Release Stress

Stress both takes a lot of energy and is also not healthy for the body, so you should get rid of them. Best way is to do things that you like and rest. 

                                                                         Make you Happy

when you are enjoying your rest time, you forget what had happened to you, so it makes you happy and make your endorphin flow again

Guys, Enjoy your Break. Hope you enjoy the song I'm listing rgt now. 

Mission Vision Week

               This Week was the Mission Vision Week and a lot of things happened. On Monday, We had our play festival and I think I was not good. I was good when audience didn't react, but when audience reacted to me, I also couldn't  stop my self from laughting. I think I should learn how to always be in character and to control myself. On Tuesday, We had our music festival and I also joined there. I played guitar and cello. I think I played without a mistake, but Sam had some problem kk. Sam said he will practice more and perform the same song again next year kkkk. I really enjoyed music festival and want to do it again next year. On Wednesday, we had our regular class. On Thursday, we had our Class Booth, and we were indecisive and couldn't choose what to do. At the end, We decided to just do messenger booth. I didn't expected to earn a lot of money, but a lot of effort in advertising made people to buy it. I received one message from T.Sharon I don't still understand what is written there because it was in mandarin. On Friday, We did MITIS challenge and it was really hard. They asked me questions that were really crazy :$) I think It was really a fun week and I hope we do this one lots of times.
