I come from a society,
A society where our nation was divided.
In the past, people were suffering from anxiety after the
war but now, in a short period of time, my country has totally changed.
Before
it was one of the most poverty-stricken country-- but thanks to one man, my
nation has grown again after pain and hardship.
I am from South Korea, where
there are cold dingy winters that make your skin get chapped. From vast
mountains to crystal-clear seas with fountains, those times were surely a great
sight. The town where I come from had warm pleasant people, and a steeple just
across the road. Evergreen forests, which spurt out of the flat dirt,
deciduous
trees are found everywhere,
a great place to play a game of solitaire.
A friend of mine with such a sublime confidence, introduced
to me the alto saxophone, a great instrument to train my lungs.
Yao Ming, a
famous Chinese basketball player, inspired me to start playing basketball as
his dunks and his rebounding skills made me feel stunned.
A boy scout made me be
influenced to participate in boy scouts as he told me that I wouldn’t have any
doubts ,if -- I successfully become one of the 4% of people who make it to an eagle scout.
Eating instant noodles with my pupils, mozzarella pizza like
hyenas, and the rice roll similar to sushi feels nothing compared to a jacuzzi.
Kimchi, the cabbage marinated with spices with a fair price is very widespread
and is essential for an ordinary meal in South Korea.
This quote by Muhammad
Ali makes me feel very inspirational and meaningful as this quote makes me
think that I should not give up trying my best on training sessions so that I
have a profession.
My grandparents hope for me to cope with my academic studies and not go
eloping.
The most important memory that
I have is winning two gold medals for two basketball tournaments, as it is a
part of my “ornament” on my memory.
