October 20th, 2009 Write in your journal about something you are looking forward to on the field trip Some of the things I'm really looking forward to on the field trip to Jeju, are visiting the Halla Mountain, going to the water park, and just playing around with my friends for three days. I have a condo in Jeju so I go there often, but it's the first time I'm going to Halla Mountain which is the tallest mountain in South Korea, according to the internet. I love water parks because you have all those fun slides and the lazy river and everything. I'm not much of a outdoor person but I'm still looking forward to going on a trip to Jeju.

October 5th, 2009 Think of a 'snapshot' of something you did over the break. Write a paragraph using t[|hird person point of view.] The Cho family had a wonderful Chuseok. In Saturday they went to visit their great grandmother. Even though she was couldn't sit and talk for a long time, it gave great joy to all the family members to see that she was still healthy and enjoyed being with her family. They ate great food that their grandaunt prepared. It was traditional Korean food, consisting Kimchi, different types of vegetables, and spicy soup. After, they went to their grandma's house and sang the newest songs from the karaoke machine. Their closest relatives were all there and the house was filled with merry laughter.

September 25, 2009 Journal: My Plans for Chusok What I mostly want to do for Chusok is play my computer, read more books and sleep. I'm so tired because of conferences and homework. Sleeping will relieve all this tiredness from my body. Oh, I also want to go to Rodeo to take sticker photos with my friend. Maybe I'll beg my mom. Hmmm... It's highly likely that she'll let me go. No school next week, YES!!

Wendy: This is so you... OK Philip IF this is a comment, this is a very very nice journal. But some more details wouldn't make the reader bored. Jinny Me too!! **Taylor**

September 23, 2009** Journal: My favorite color My favorite color is pink. Pink is bright. It is funky and also it looks good with any other color. I don't like to wear pink but I like pink accessories. They go well with black or white shirts, jeans and mostly anything else. Pink is also most of the sparkly lipstick colors. Red is too bright for me, its good for people with pale skin. Pink lip-gloss or nail polish matches me well I think, better than any other color in my opinion. You might say that since there are millions of different tones of pink in this whole world I'm being too vague. Well for that account my favorite tone of pink is hot pink. I'm wearing the color on my nails right now!

Journal: write about something that has really been annoying you lately. If everything is perfect, then you can make something up. Something that has been annoying me lately is the fact that my sister always comes in to my room and tries out my clothes or anything that's mine when she thinks that I'm not looking. She never knocks on my door and just bangs it open. I tell her to knock on it but she always says why should she knock on my door when I don't knock on her door. So then I tell her that I'll knock on her door if she starts to knock on my door. And then she says no simply because she doesn't want to. I wish she would stop doing that. I HAVE TO scream at her all the time because she just can't take her little hands off of my stuff. I'm telling you, it's very annoying. Pretend you are Tao writing a letter to his mom (who he has never known). Um... hi mom. This is your son Tao. Do you remember me? I guess maybe not. I really miss you from down here. I wish that you were here, it would make everything so much better. But, of course, Kala is a very nice guardian. She took care of me all these years. Are you happy up there? I'm happy too. Graybeard, the great image-maker and shaman, gave me lessons about drawing and he promised for more. I wish I could show you my drawings. Uh well.. this is sort of awkward because I never knew who you really were. I mean your my mom and all that but I don't think I know you very much. Well bye!

Journal: Setting is the time and place a story takes place. If you were writing a story about yourself, describe the setting If I ever wrote a story of my own my setting it would be in Paris, where I want to visit. There would be a beautiful garden full of white and red roses. The scent would fill the air with sweetness and there would be a white table with two chairs on both sides. There would be a soft song playing and the sun would be setting down the horizon making everything look red. The view would be beautiful.

Journal: Volt believes in evil spirits. Do you believe in spirits? Explain. I don't believe in evil spirit. I think that people who believe in spirit are always thinking about it so they think that they see something like an evil spirit when it's actually nothing. It's just like when people believe in ghosts they believe that they have seen ghosts. Some people blame evil spirits for bad things that happened to them but I think it actually has nothing to do with spirits haunting them or anything like that. In my opinion if you believe that there are no such thing as evil spirits and all that you won't really see one of those. In the book Volt is very superstitious. He believes most scary or bad things are evil spirits and sometimes good things too like Ram. People are much more relaxed when they don't believe they see things hovering in the sky or something brings bad fate and etc.

Journal: If you were Tao, how would you feel living alone in your new cave? Why would you feel this way? If I was Tao and I had to live in a cave all by my own I would feel really bad. I like living in places where there are lots of other activities and noise. When I live in a cave all by my own it will be only me in that cave, in Tao's case with his wolf friend Ram, but Ram is still a wolf, not human. So even though I respect Tao's decision and everything I don't want to live in a cave alone. I would feel much better if I had a friend who understood my dreams and who I am. That way I can stay alone sometimes but most of the times be with her and talk to her. This would make me feel much less lonely.

Journal Entry: If you could change one thing in MS, what would it be and why? If I could change anything I want in MS I would like to make the lunch time longer. This would be so that we can eat lunch and have recess. Of course even though 11:30 to 12:05 is lunch and recess 30 minutes is too short for students to eat and play all they want, in my opinion. We also have to get ready for class and everything so if we eat lunch then we eat lunch. Also the cafeteria line is long so it takes up a lot of our lunch time. This makes it harder for us to eat lunch and play. Even though all these things could be fixed I still love MS! Go KIS!!

Journal entry: Which person, living or dead, do you admire the most? Why? I admire a lot of people, I think. And this is because there are lots of great people who are and were here on Earth. But from all of these people I look up to, the person I admire the most is my mom. My mom is a great person. She's strong, independent but also kind and caring. She always tries her best in everything and she's a quick learner too. Also she's artistic, which I'm not. So when I have projects my mom often helps me with assembling my work on the poster.This really makes everything easier because when it comes to art I'm pretty horrible. And to make her even more perfect she's a great cook. I'm always thankful that she's my mom and I love her sooo much!!!

Journal: Would you like to be famous? Why or why not? What would you like to be famous for? If I could ever be famous I would like to famous for being smart or nice. When I grow up I want to invent the first time machine:) Then I can be famous for being smart!!! Also I would like to be known for being nice. When people become famous they can easily turn snobby and I would like to show that some people are just nice and great. If I keep my words, I can be known for being smart and nice! When all this is accomplished I want to, when I am older, be famous for being rich! If I can do something great like inventing the first time machine then surely I'll be rich! These are all the things I want to be famous for!

Journal #3: Which super power do you wish you had? How would you use it to do good? If I could have any super power that I want I would like be able to read people's mind. If this was possible I could know everyone's secret and I would know ahead of time what someone is going to do because people think before they act. It can be very useful when I'm playing any sort of game. For example if I'm playing uno I can see in my opponent's mind what cards he or she has. Also I can have information about the villain's movement by looking in to his/her mind. It would be so awesome to have this kind of super power!!!

August 26th, 2009 "Something that I am really excited about at KIS this year" This year I'm just really excited about going to middle school. It's like you're starting on a whole new different level! I love that we have our own lockers so that I can put anything unnecessary to carry around. I also like that for some classes we use are macbook as text books. It's so much easier than carrying heavy books and the macbook is prettier too. I'm excited that we have so many different teachers, and I'm excited about the library. The secondary school library has lots of books that I always wanted to read. It's nice and quiet inside there so me and my friends hang out in the library a lot. Well, these are the things that I'm mostly excited about school this year. 



August 25th, 2009 Yesterday I slept late so today it was hard to wake up. Also I woke up in the middle of the night  and  didn't sleep for another 30 minutes. But I still managed to wake up on 6:30 am. I ate pancakes for breakfast, brushed my teeth, then dressed up for school. Dressing up took the longest. First I had a pair of navy blue shorts but I couldn't find a shirt to match it. So, I just wore any white shirt but the shirt didn't match the pants! And when I came out of my room my mom told me that I looked too weird with the blue pants and white shirt. Thus, I transferred my pants to a brown abercrombie one. During the bus ride I watched a funny tv show from disney called " Wizards on Deck with Hannah Montana". When we arrived to school I went straight to my first class, social studies. In s.s class we started a project on "The origin of human beings." Each group was assigned a story about how different people from different places thought about the origin of human beings. We have to make a puppet show about it until next Friday.
