Reflective Essay [Spring, Summer,fall,winter] not done

       
                        +Caution: Disgusting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This video is about a boy who lives with a monk. One day, the boy ties a rope and put a rock  to a fish, frog, and a snake.The monk tied a rope and put a rock at the little boy to feel the same thing as what the animals had felt. The boy regretted and went to make the fish, frog, snake free from the rope. However, the fish and snake was dead. The boy maybe had experienced death for the first time by that and felt certainly sorry for them. When did you first experienced death? Here is my reflective essay.

When I first saw death and experienced death is somehow different. When I first saw death is when I was certainly young. There was a fly flying at the restaurant, suddenly, the fly ran into my cup which was full with water and the fly was dead. I didn't felt very sorry for the fly because he just flied by his own and was dropped into a cup full with water because of his fault. No matter what I felt, that was the first time when I discovered what is death actually. I was very surprised the fly was actually flying in front of me and suddenly it was dead even the fly never seemed like it will die. The time when I experienced death was by my pet fish. I certainly loved my fish, and by the fish I experienced a lot of t hings. I even experienced law of nature by the fish as well. I was shocked when I saw the fish who made the little fish born, ate the fish that was her kid. Then I realized that it was law of nature and we can't prevent this. My father  

Metafiction

I think it was a sunny day, I was cleaning my room and packing things up because I moved to college. I lift the mattress up ,and I found a notebook which was full with essay which I wrote from elementary school. I opened the notebook and a essay which was very interesting caught my sight. The essay started...
In the future, North Korea and South Korea will be reunified, so the technology will be more advanced then these days. Also, there will be lots of festivals, which are for introducing the cultures of both North Korea and South Korea, and lots of people will start to have interest on Korea as well.I thought that it was a boring essay...However, I kept on reading it because the essay made me remember of my young childhood memories.
Also, we can get out of the fear that there will be a war. Since now on, it is truce of the Korean War, that means we don't know when will the war start again. There is another reason too. We can save money which we spend on weapons. There are a lot of money that we spend on weapons for preparing war. By this money, we can sped it on poor people by donating. Then, our country will be more advanced and developed.In addition, our territory will be expanded. Then, we can find more natural resource. If we expand our territory, more citizens and more natural resources would be found and everybody would be happy in Korea. Our future should be changed, so that the new life could be very comfortable. More money, larger territory, stronger army, and the culture will be known in the world. There will be no war, which means no violence.
I think I had a very creative and free idea. And I feel very unfortunate to my younger self that Korea is still not united. Anyway, I kept on reading.
No, we need our territory back from China after colonizing Japan by peace. Korea asked China for our old land, Manju and China refused. China started to make weapons which meant the War. Korea changed their name to Corea. US stands for Corea and Italy stands for China. The World War 3 has broke out. But I hope China will just stop making weapons and just give a little land. If not the World War 3 will happen then every person in the world will be in danger. I don't want dnagerous things to happen. I want peace in the world.

The essay was certainly ridiculous. Korea is having a peaceful and beautiful relationship with China still. Suddenly, my phone rang because there was a new post in Facebook. My best Chinese friend had written the post. I was very curious, but, I ignored it and kept reading on my essay.
Well, when we reunite there will be many sacrifices. North Korea people are so poor and we have to give more taxes. And also the government will almost force citizens to donate. Then we will have to donate. All the people will be little poor, but, when we see the future, it is the best way to do. 

This was completely wrong but somehow right. The part of donating is right but the part of being poor is completely  wrong. Korea has become the strongest country in the world now.
In Olympics we will do better. We will be the first in Olymics! I hope we could be.

Wow! My essay was fantastic I thought after I saw the lovely signature of 'F' by my teacher above my essay.

In the future, North Korea and South Korea would be reunited, so the technology would have been more advanced than these days. Also, there would be lots of festivals, which are for Korea, and lots of people will start to have interest on Korea as well.

Also, we can get out of the fear that there would be a war. Since now, it is truce of the Korean War, that means we don't know when will the war start again.

 There is another reason too. We can save money which we spend on weapons. There are a lot of money that we spend on weapons for preparing a war. By this money, we can spend it on poor people by donating. Then, our country will be more advanced and developed.

In addition, our territory will expand. Then, we can find more natural resource. If we expand our territory more citizens and more natural resources will be found and everybody will be happy in Korea. Our future should be changed so that the new life could be comfortable. More money, bigger territory, stronger land, culture will be known in the new world. There will be no war, which means no more violence.

But I hope China will just stop making weapons and just give a little land. If not the World War 3 will begin and then every person in the world will be in danger. I don't want dangerous things to happen. I want peace in the world.

 Well, when we reunite, there will be many sacrifices. North Korea people are so poor and we have to pay more tax. And also the government will tell citizens to donate. Then we will have to donate. All the people will be little poor, however, when we see the future that is the best way. In Olympics, we will do better. We will win the first prize! I hope we could be. 

[Optional assignment]Speech

"I think one of the reasons that we like conspiracy theory is I think that we like to feel  like there is a group of people who are so smart and powerful that they can pull the wool over an entire country or in fact that even an entire world's eyes, that certainly makes us feel like somehow we're protected, even it's not our interest" This is a quote by Jason Ritter. Hello ladies and gentlemen, my name is Katherine Song. I'm from class 15. Imagine if you're going to see the president, who became a president by the citizen's precious vote. You went to see either him or her at a parade. The president smiled friendly at you and even waved hands to everyone. Everyone cheered,however, suddenly during the parade the president was assassinated. No one knows who assassinated the president. Everyone would have suspects at least about who assassinated the president. And some would never stop on just suspecting, they would start on making actual theories about who assassinated the president and why the president was assassinated. That's called conspiracy theories. More specifically, conspiracy theories are belief that a group of people are secretly trying to harm something or achieve something. Today, I would talk about president John F. Kennedy's assassination, and the moon landing conspiracy theory.

 John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963. There are lots of conspiracy theories starting from the number of the gunman to who assassinated Kennedy. I would first start on the number of the gunman. Some say that there's a lone gunman who shot three bullets in a row and one of the bullets injured both Kennedy and minister John Conally. In the other hand, some say that there were two or more gunman,cause, its impossible to shoot three bullets in a row accurately even though they are expert snipers. However, the most important thing it who actually killed John F. Kennedy. There are two major suspects, first the Mafia and second the US government. In case of the Mafia, Kennedy had a fierce position to organize crimes than the previous presidents. Also, Kennedy arrested several Mafia members during his career. The conflict also has an relationship with Cuba, as Mafia funded a lot of money on Cuba and that Kennedy let go of it. The another possible theory is the US government. The most believable theory is that the CIA assassinated Kennedy for few reasons. First of all, Kennedy let go of Cuba, a country which the agent worked so hard for it. Second, to prevent doing the same thing on Vietnam. The CIA theory, has a satisfaction with the Warren Commission which was a group made by the government who searched about John F. Kennedy's death. In my opinion, I think JFK was assassinated by both Mafia and the US government, which has a deep relationship with Cuba. In addition that they both reserved a lot of money and time to get it. For the gunman theory, I think there were two or more gunman because, its certainly impossible for a single person to shoot three bullets in a row very accurately.

 Now I would talk about the "moon landing conspiracy theory" about Apollo 11. Some Americans believe that the Apollo 11 is fake for few reasons. First the flag waves. The flag waves. The flag moves when the astronauts moved the pole, the flag actually are not allowed to move because there is no air resistance. Second, if there was no air, the dust, which have been kicked out should fly far away and lend somewhere else. However, as the astronauts walk,the dust was like a stone. Lastly, we can't hear any engine noise. You can't hear engine noise when an airline plot speaks over the loud speaker. Only, the noise goes quietly out and back. In my opinion, I also agree that the moon landing was fake because, including the reasons I said at the front and its also strange that the NASA said that they mistakenly  deleted the moon landing video when the public required NASA to show it.
Conspiracy theories may be things that we can feel comfort and rely on, however, I think that we shouldn't believe them completely because we aren't sure either if those are true of false even believing them makes us comfortable and feel safe and protected.

Kony 2012

I

                   

The video and picture related to  "KONY 2012"

   Have you ever seen the video "KONY 2012"? "KONY 2012" is one of the most influential and viral videos in human history. Made by an American, the video spreaded as a virus through people. Even some are thinking to change their donation groups to Tri which is the donation group that helps to arrest Joseph Kony and to help his poor army. The craze didn't stopped. However, suddenly, people began to have a question. "Is the video(Kony 2012) 100% all true and real?" Many people are arguing about that, and the topic is quite controversial, some agrees with the video and think it's true, in the other hand, some are suspecting the video and think the video is faked. I disagree with video as the others do as well, but  not completely all. 

  We even do not know exactly if Joseph Kony is dead or alive. We haven't heard any movements or actions that Joseph Kony did for 6 years. There is no evidence that Joseph Kony is still alive and is kidnapping children nowadays as well. Well, its kind of strange that the world didn't have any news of Joseph Kony for 6 years. He wouldn't have any reason to hide or stop his actions because he wasn't that famous and the US didn't even helped the group(who's putting effort to stop Kony and arrest him) 6 years ago. For instance, the US mentors had no reports of viewing Joseph Kony for almost one year as well. 

   The LRA, Joseph Kony's army is not that big as well. The video said that there were almost 30000 kids who were soldiers at the LRA. Actually, there were about 30000 kids totally for the past 20 years. We can know by this that the video is not totally 100% true and is kind of exaggerating the facts. Also, some says that the LRA doesn't even exist anymore. If the LRA still existed there would be lots of conflicts in Uganda, and would be a serious problem that's certainly urgent to solve. However, the most significant point is that Joseph Kony is not the most serious and urgent problem to solve, such as, East Africa food crisis, Middle East and North Africa unrest, and lastly crisis in Libya. There are lots of problems that are more urgent to solve then Joseph Kony. And we don't have any ease or comfort of money to spend on both of the problems. We should carefully think about what is the most important and urgent problem to solve. 

   In conclusion, I disagree with the video "KONY 2012" for few reasons as there are rumors that Joseph Kony were already dead 6 years ago, and that the video is exaggerating that the LRA(Joseph Kony's army) has almost 3 million kids, but the truth is that LRA had 3 million soldiers totally for 20 years. I'm not completely disagreeing with the video, however, I believe that the video is not completely true , and the video is exaggerating facts as well, however, I also think that we should catch Joseph Kony as fast as we could if his alive, cause even his crimes were exaggerated those crimes would still remain as crimes.
