Today I want to talk about my Boracay trip in Philipphines.
It was a very nice trip that I ever went.
If I have a chance to go there again, I will go there with my GF.
First day, it was hard to go Boracay.
Because we took a bus and ship. Our total time to get there is eleven hours. So, when I arrived in Hotel, I wanted to relax. But, I thought 'If I relaxed, it is a waste of time.' So, we went to Jumbo crab which is famous for crab dishes.
It was really delicious to eat. But, it was very expensive to pay. I guess why Jumbo crab was so expensive. It's because this resturant is managed by Korean.
So, we discussed about that "If we have to live in here and manage our business, then can you live in Philipphines whole life?" Then, I said that "I can't live without Kimchi. So, I'm out." But, my friends said "If we get more money with that, I will try that." Yeah.. It's a reasonable answer. But, I experience that it is difficult to live in foreign country even though I have many friends in there. Therefore, nowadays, I think that It is hard to study in U.S.A. Because, you know, the price of U.S.A is more expensive than Korea and Philipphines. So, I am nervous about that.
Even though It is not confirmed that I can go U.S.A for Doctor's course, I have to be worried about my future.
There is nothing to confirm. So, to face my future life is scared to me.
Anyway, I think to write about Boracay trip by Korean is better than to do by English. Because there are many pictures I want to post on my blog. The network of dormitory is not actually good. So, I will come back with Boracay story written by Korean later.
But, I will write English diary until the rest of the day.
When I woke up, I felt my body don't want to go school.
Because today is Philipphines holiday. So, I really don't want to go to school.
But, if I endure three days, I can go to Boracay which has many things to play.
So, I went to school. Yeah.. I talked about Korea's situation with my toeic speaking teacher.
She was surprised about our country's atmosphere. She said "I didn't know about the exchange rate about won to dollar."
I said all the things that I know about my nation. And She said to me, "You looks old. But It is nice. Because Young people have to know about what happening in own country."
I also agree with my teacher's saying.
Anyway, after a class, we went to karaoke with my Korean friends. I really like to sing when I am free from my working or studying. So, I was very happy about that moment.
Tomorrow, I will stay in dormitory to manage my health before going to Boracay.
So, I decided to go outsied to play basketball with filiphino friends.
I didn't play well in the last game. So, I wanted to play well in this game.
My three point shot was goal. So, I felt it was nice start. After that, I also shot the ball when I get the second chance. I got the goal. So, I thought, 'My hand is hot. So, I have to let my teammate pass me the ball.'
But, it was the last goal in the game. LOL.
I was sad about that my performance wasn't well.
So, now I think I have to play basketball when I come back to my country.
To remind my past basketball skill, practicing is important.
Oh, and nowadays, I learn American English pronunciation by Duolingo.
I want to know the director of Duolingo. Because UI is very comfortable to use.
So, I can see my rank within people who use Duolingo.
Also, I can get new phrase and expression by it.
After using this app, I get to know that learning English regularly is important than going another country to learn English.
I think I will learn English by Duolingo when I come back to Korea.
Today, I feel that it is important to use money with plan as I pay my money in Phlilppine.
I have to use money with plan when I come back to Korea.
Thank you for reading.
And Tomorrow I will go Rakawon which is coast.
I am very excited to go there.
Because I endure my desire to drink for this moment.
My diagnostic name is a traveler's diarrhea. It means when traveler drinks foreign water, colon bacillus can live in my stomach. So, I had a headache before lunch.
Also, I did a speech contest. I think I prepared well. But, I didn't get a prize.
I just got the certificate of participation. I was shocked by the result. Because, even though I had a mistake, I spoke pretty well. So, I think it is reasonable to anticipate that I can get the prize.
But, I didn't. So, I was very depressed about the result of speech contest.
Because I memorized all things of scription and I got some compliment about speech.
Well,,, I don't care about the speech, now. The one thing that I can focus on is to improve my english communication skills.
I am sick little now, too. So, I can't write more than this.
Oh.. anyway, I will post my resume soon.
Thank you for reading my diary.
Wow.. They write my name wrongly(Sim Dae Song)! My name is SIM DAE SEONG!
Today, I prepared my resume and draft of speech contest scription.
It was fun for me because when I arrange my experience, I feel proud myself.
There are many prizes in my career. So, I also bragged to my group mates.
My teacher said, "You are already hired." It means that you have many careers so, it is weird if company do not hire me.
Yeah... Actually, I think so too.
But, I think in my major's friends also have many careers. For example, the tallest guy in our master's course already worked in public institution. And then he has more prizes than me.
I think he can be a salary man if he apply to some big company.
Everytime I see him, I think that "why he is in Kyungpook National University?"
Even though KNU is Korea No.1 University, it is true that KNU is not competitve in the present than in the past.
So, I always respect to what he did. And I also try my best to chase his career.
And he is also humble.
I think he is already ready for getting a new job.
Hmm... It seems like I've been talking only about my friend.
Oh! I also work out at the gym.
When I exercised with my friends, the gym manager came to us and said "Can I take your photo and post on a instagram?"
We said "Yes!"
And here's the photo and link about his gym.
My Korean friend had a mistake(My English name is Arnold. But He wrote as "ARNORD." LOL)
I think It is cheapest gym in the Bacolod.
If you are interested in Learning English program in Bacolod and working out, come this Gym.
I wasn't supposed to take part in contest. But, I think this is the last chance to do presentation in front of audience.
So, after a lot of thought, I decided to do it.
But, when I heard about the prize. I was little bit regretful because the prize is Khan's spa which I visited yesterday.
Wow.... I can get three Khan's spa coupon if I win the contest.
Actually, I am not pressured. But, My teacher Joyce said "you can do it. Don't feel pressured about getting the prize. It is a chance to improve your English communication."
I'm really grateful because my teacher always encourages me.
Then, Anyway, I want to talk about what I learned today.
There are many expressions and vocabulary.
balance: staying equal
athletic: being good at sports
pierced: small horn on the skin
muscular: having big and strong muscles.
cosmetics: make up
beard: under the lips.
irrestible: hard to say "no"
trim: cut a little
plastic surgery: medical surgery to change or improve how someone looks
mustache: upper the lips.
dress up
> The restaurant is pretty fancy, so you'll need to dress up.
drop by
> Why don't you drop by some time this weekend so you can see my new kitten?
fall through
> Anne was devastated when her wedding plans to Richard fell through, but two years later she married someone much better suited to her.
get along
> Monica and Walid don't get along at all. I can't invited them both to my dinner party, or there will be dramal.
get by
> New York is expensive, so it's hard to get by there with a low-paying job.
That's all I learned today.
I felt stuck. Because there are many words that I don't know yet.
You know, I like to figure things out as I go.
So, there are many things that I have to do. Like preparing for contest, doing homework, studying English by using GPT or DuoLingo.
I got some feeling that "Am I good, now?" during studying English recently.
I can't feel that I develope my English skills.
Sometimes I understand English less than I did on the first day.
But as always, I believe that change is happening little by little within me.
So, I am gonna trust myself.
Thank you for reading!
I missed traditional Korean food so I went to Korean resturant which sell "Samgyeopsal"
