Evaluating myself

This year in English class, I have done some reading, speaking, writing and acting. I think in most of class in English we watched movies and reading books. I think I have done well many things but reading. While I read books I usually forget where I was reading and sometimes I forget pronunciation and couldn't read unknown words. And I think I deserve grade 4~5 out of 7 because I think I usually get higher grades then I expected, but sometimes I get lower then I expected. Next year I would be in English 10 B Advanced class because I think my English level is not as high as English A students but I will be A students someday and I hope to be one of A students. In order to be English A student, I need to learn more words first.

Hamlet...

In English class, we watched two different kind of Hamlet, first one was a movie like the others, second one was a movie like opera but no music, just like a play. When I watch these two version of Hamlet, I heard many strange words from these movies. So I found in dictionary the words, after I found those words in dictionary, I realize that those are the spoken language or dialect or dead language like 'Tis, ay, thee, sblood and nay in the movies. The biggest difference was the background, the first movie was filmed just like a real, but second one's background was painted and people can't see the outside of the background even when Hamlet was on a way to England there was no proper background like real sky. the similarity of these movies is there lines, I realized that there are some lines that exactly the same as first movie.

Therefore, I think there are more similarities than differences of these two movies.

Anything I like... - Biography of Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King, Jr(January 15, 1929-April 4, 1968)

Martin Luther King, Jr. was born Michael Luther King, Jr. in Atlanta, Georgia, but later had his name changed to Martin. His grandfather began to be a pastor and then his father was also a pastor of the Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta. From 1960 until his father death Martin Luther acted as co-pastor. Martin Luther attended segregated public schools, graduating from high school when he was fifteen. Martin Luther King graduated from Morehouse College in 1948. He further received a Bachelor's of Divinity in 1951 and then a Ph.D. from Boston College in 1955. In Boston, he met and later married Coretta Scott. They had two sons and two daughters together.
In 1954, Martin Luther King accepted the pastorale of the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama. Always a strong worker for civil rights for members of his race, King was a member of the executive committee of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People by this time, the leading organization of its kind in the nation. Then, in December, 1955, he accepted the leadership of the first great Negro nonviolent demonstration of contemporary times in the United States, the bus boycott described by Gunnar John in his presentation speech in honor of the laureate. On December 21, 1956, after the Supreme Court of the United States had declared unconstitutional the laws requiring segregation on buses, Negroes and whites rode the buses as equals. During these days of boycott, King was arrested, his home was bombed, he was subjected to personal abuse, but at the same time he emerged as a Negro leader of the first rank.
In 1957 he was elected president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, an organization formed to provide new leadership for the now burgeoning civil rights movement. Between 1957 and 1968, King traveled over six million miles and spoke over twenty-five hundred times. In these years, he led a massive protest in Birmingham, Alabama, that caught the attention of the entire world, providing what he called a coalition of conscience. and inspiring his "Letter from a Birmingham Jail", a manifesto of the Negro revolution; he planned the drives in Alabama for the registration of Negroes as voters; he directed the peaceful march on Washington, D.C., of 250,000 people to whom he delivered his address, "l Have a Dream", he conferred with President John F. Kennedy and campaigned for President Lyndon B. Johnson; he was arrested upwards of twenty times and assaulted at least four times; he was awarded five honorary degrees; was named Man of the Year by Time magazine in 1963; and became not only the symbolic leader of American blacks but also a world figure.
When he was thirty-five, Martin Luther King, Jr., was the youngest man to have received the Nobel Peace Prize. When notified of his selection, he announced that he would turn over the prize money to the furtherance of the civil rights movement.

And on the evening of April 4, 1968, while standing on the balcony of his motel room, where he was to lead a protest march in sympathy with striking garbage workers of that city, he was assassinated.

Apples and Oranges - which one do you like better? Bok Ki, Min 9K

We usually eat and know much about apples and oranges but a few people want to compare them and want to know the differences between them, but most of people don't. So I'm going to compare them in colors, uses of apples and oranges and cost of them. And then I'm going to decide which one is better for me.

First, Color of apples and oranges are different but they are similar because color of oranges is mixture of yellow and red, and color of apples is red. However, all colors of oranges sometimes are not the same and we can also find the little different colors of apples, because there are many kinds of oranges and apples like oranges which have thick skin and oranges with thin skin and their colors are different. We can also find some kinds of apples like apples in Japan and apples in Korea because the places they grow are not the same. Therefore, all the colors of all oranges and all apples can not exactly the same. Depending on the places where they're growing, the colors of each apples and oranges will be the different and even the texture and taste will be different too just like Korea's and Japan's, they're having different apples color, but the color of oranges are the same, but the shape or size are not the same.

Second, people can use apples and oranges to make candies or juice, syrup, jam, sometimes people also make cake with it. However, apples have more thing to do than the oranges, because people can make apple pie, but don't like to make orange pie, I don't know why, but I can imagine that the taste will not be good as the apple one. Candies also have taste of oranges and apples but I think people don't want to put real oranges or apples in there, instead of this, people can make taste of oranges and apples from real ones. These fruits are also very good for our health. Some people use the skin of oranges to make tea, and they say it has many vitamins C more than inner ones in oranges. These two fruits can be made to fruits salad also, and people really like to eat it, but I don't, and these fruits can be also the materials for the candles with apple aroma and orange aroma.

Third, I don't know the exact cost of orange and apple in other countries, so I'm going to talk about the cost of them in Korea and China. I think the prices in Korea and China is depending on the taxes, so oranges are more expensive than apples. But the smaller oranges' cost is cheaper than the apples. Price of oranges is 20-25 dollars per 5kg (1 box) but apples' price is 10-15 dollars per 5kg (1 box). This is mainly because of taxes of oranges and the oranges are from other countries, we can't easily find out the oranges from Korea, only Jaeju Island can grow the oranges. But it's more expensive than the normal oranges. Therefore, oranges are more expensive than the apples.

In conclusion, I decided that Apples are better than Oranges, because of the cheap cost and uses of apples, and I like red color. People can't decide which one is better but if we divide the each parts and compare them in that way, we can find which one is better for me.

Genres of Games - anything I like...

There are many kinds of genres of games like action, Role Playing Game(RPG), Sports, Puzzle, Adventure, Shooting, Racing, Real-time Simulation(RTS) and Massive multiplayer online role playing game(MMORPG). The examples of action are Super Mario, Takken, and Street fighter, other examples of other genre are Starcraft, Warcraft3, Need for Speed, FIFA2007, NBA Live 2007 and Hellgate:Rondon. Genre of games are decided by how we play it, like if we beat the monsters with other players, that would be RPG or MMORPG and if players fight each other, that would be action. In RTS, we can build buildings and create units to fight, then we can control them to fight against the enemy. Most of Koreans can play RTS especially Starcraft and like to play. And most of game is MMORPG like World of Warcraft and Hellgate:Rondon.

I like RTS games, I usually play Warcraft3: The Frozen Throne but I want to play Company of Heros if I have. And I also play FPS games which I can shoot the players with gun or kill with knives, especially, Battlefield2.
