Pay Tribute to The Courageous Woman Saving Dozens of Lives.

   Last week, one South Korean ferry with hundreds of students on board accidentally sank into sea, resulting in hundreds of people failing to escape and still missing.What surprised the world was that almost all the cruise member escaped at the first place instead of attempting to save more passengers. However, not all the cruise members took their own lives more important than others'. A 22 year-old woman, also as a cruise member of that ferry, pulled the lock and made sure the bridge between the room and the exit be connected so that the  passengers could escape easily before she gave out her own life. 50 passengers, almost a third of lives  you may add to live, are believed to be saved by the brave woman. What's importantly, as the rescued passengers reported, she could originally escape easily because exit was right next to her, revealing the cherish courage she had. While hearing this news from CNN this morning, I am so angry at other cruise members, for they regarded their own lives more important than those of the passengers! If every cruise member on board could have been as brave as the 22 year-old woman was, the loss of this tragedy would not be this bad. I hope that I can take this courage woman as a role model, and someday I can use my own strength to save others.

Finally! Admission Letter has arrived!!

  Wow! I've waited for the admission letter for about a month, and it finally arrived at my gmail yesterday morning. I can finally start to prepare for all the necessary documents and find out courses that I'd be interested in. With the arrival of the letter, it also means that I have to find the accommodation. Previously, I've been thinking that whether I should find accommodation outside or inside the campus; hence, I, through one of my friends in guitar club, access to a girl who is an exchange student in the same college I'm about to exchange to right now and get lots of useful information from her. It is true that friends are always one's most cherish treasure! Right now, I hope that everything would stay on the right track and I can accomplish all the documents soundly! Netherlands, here I come!!!!!

Happy Birthday to ME!!

  It is so fast that I am heading to my 22ed year of my life. Thanks to my friends, yesterday was the first time that I started drinking beer, as my birthday present, in the afternoon!! Looking back to the previous 21 years that I have gone through, I have truly grown a lot mentally. I've also made some critical check on my college check list: achieving an opportunity to attend the exchange program to Netherlands, learning how to play guitar, and making lots of good friends. Most importantly, I find my interest  and strive to enter top-class international university. Right now, though this interest may seem uncertain and  unstable, I hope that I can confront any obstacles coming on my way and luckily find my position in the world by trial-and-error.  Less but not the least, faith on myself is the most important thing to me. I believe that someday in the future, when I finally achieve this goal, I read this blog again, I will be so proud of myself for my accomplishment of my goals.

Anyway, Happy Birthday to ME!

Good Luck to My Sister!!

 Finally, I've passed through the overwhelming week. Though I was busy discussing the report with my classmates, I still made time to wish my sister happy 20th birthday by making a simple but sweet video for her( haha, it seems that I've mentioned it on the last blog, but anyway). I always think that my sister, Katie, is tougher and more independent than I am. Though only 18 years old, she went to Japan to study college and prepared all the daily work on her own. It appears to me that when I first entered college, my parents helped me a lot and all I did was sitting on the car enjoying all the hard work done by them. Recently, because she had to moved out college's dormitory, she collected all the information she needed to move the furniture and found a new house near the school. I am so impressed by her independence and maturity. I guess that she is no longer the little girl I knew and becomes a mature, tough woman who can handle every obstacles coming on her way. Thanks to the convenient communication applications like Skype and Line, my parents and I can talk and see her whenever we want. It seems that I have to try to be a more mature brother in case that, when next time meeting her, I would be look like her younger brother!!
