Today, I went to the Mpark4 movie theater again. I watched to the American movie yesterday, so I wanted to watch the Korean movie and I solved to my wish today. ‘Secret reunion’ was the movie name which watched to me. There were many people in the Mpark4. Although most people visited with their family or friends, Singular people also were some existences. The movie was about the North Korean man and the South Korean man story. Sometimes this movie saw great action moreover it made a deep impression on me. This movie was very fun and today, I saw an American person in the theater. He also watched to a movie alone. So I first told to him and we became a good friend. His name was George, he was an older ten than me. He was man who liked and interested in Korean culture. I explained to him about the Korean movie and I took a dinner with him in the Korean barbeque restaurant. Actually, I needed to make more many other country friends, so today I thought that I got a chance which was very nice experience to speak English.

First, I watched to American movie, ‘Crash of the Titans’ This Movie which was recently opened was blockbuster movie, so I had been waited for a long time before the movie premiere. Principal background of the movie was Perseus and Medusa story in the Greek mythology. Not only story but also action and computer graphic motion were very exciting to me. Moreover, running time also was adequate amount. So, I could more and more concentrate in this movie for showing time. After the movie was finished, I was impressed by the movie. If I will have a time, I will want to watch this movie again and I will go here on next time.

Apr.10/2010 : Spring Break - West Pavilion Department Store

West Pavilion department store

Apr/10/2010

Today, I went to the West Pavilion department store. The West Pavilion was only one and big department store in our street. When my mother stayed in my homestay for three weeks, sometimes we had a time, we went to shopping at the West Pavilion department store. However, I went to this place alone today. Frankly speaking, The West Pavilion department store was not a smaller than other department store. The West Pavilion was three floor building including below floor. Below floor mainly sold about men, first floor primarily displayed about women, men and women shoes, bags, fancy items etc. Lastly Second floor sold various things moreover a small post office and bank located in this floor. Honestly, I really wanted to buy many things, however generally, the West Pavilion department store’s things were expensive, so I just watched inside department store and took a picture to many things. Although, I could not buy anything today, because I did not enough money to buy many things, I will buy my favorite things on next visiting. However, I had a happy time in the West Pavilion department store.

Barnes & Noble
Apr/9/2010

Today was beginning of the spring vacation. After I finished lunch, I went to the bookstore near Westwood. Sometimes I visited to this bookstore for watching but today, I went to the bookstore for buying a book. The bookstore name was Barnes & Noble. Barnes & Noble is the biggest bookstore company in the United States. I bought a book about health and fitness and made a membership card. Most Barnes & Noble bookstores had similar commons. First, Booksellers are wide and build to two or three floor, so numerous books display in bookstore. Second, Convenience institution, especially café was in bookstore. So, not only I but also most people comfortably read a book with coffee or drink. Last, Barnes & Noble provides membership card system. Membership card was much benefit to many people. Although you pay to money for joining membership, after you join to membership, you receive much discount benefit. Membership joining saves your much money because most selling books in the United States were so expensive. I also joined to membership, because of these systems. Today, I knew and experienced many things in Barnes & Noble. Sometimes if I have a time, I will visit and buy a book in this bookstore.

Emilio who was teacher in my class sometimes gave an interesting homework on weekend. So, recently I always had a chance to take a new place trip on weekend. This weekend wrote down a description of my impression about hiking in Canyon on print and upload blog, this weekend assignment also was interested in me.

Griffith Park located in Crystal Springs Drive in Los Angeles. We quickly reached in this place. When we arrived in park, above all widespread spectacle of Los Angeles was very impressed on the top of park. By the way when I got to this place, I late knew any fact. Actually, Griffith Park was place which I visited with my parents before two month. So, today was 2nd visiting in this place, but when I was 1st visiting with my parents, weather was a finer than 2nd visiting. Anyway, we went to Griffith Park hiking road then hiked on this place. Refreshing air, beautiful flowers, trees, silent forest road and walking many people fascinated to me. Moreover, there existed observatory in Griffith Park. When weather is fine and see spectacle on the top, it is very wonderful. However, today was cloudy and some foggy. If weather was also wonderful, those might the best harmony.

About A.Vivaldi’s Violin concerto ‘the four seasons’ and Classic music

About A.Vivaldi’s Violin concerto ‘the four seasons’ and Classic music

Most people think that classic music is boring and hard to listen. However, some classic music was very popular and loved from many people. Perhaps, most people would know J.S.Bach, W.A.Mozart and L.v.Beethoven. Even though you did not those compositions, you would know the Canon variation by J. Pachelbel, the four seasons by A.Vivaldi, Symphony No.5 ‘Destiny’ by L.v.Beethoven and Hungarian Dance No.5 by J.Brahms. Some kinds of classic music were much arranged by numerous musicians and sometimes we were heard from advertisements, movies and dramas. Now, much kids of famous class music, I introduce A.Vivaldi’s Violin Concerto ‘the four seasons’. A.Vivaldi was famous composer and violinist in 17th century Italy. This work describes to four seasons and is composed of 3 movements. Each movement depicts each season like real. The spring movements describe greeting beautiful birds, flowing brook, image of leisure pastoral. The summer movements describe thunder and lightning sounds, storm and the sun of sultriness. The fall movements depict festival of the harvesting season, hunters who leave to hunt with hunt dogs. The last winter movements depict cold snow, heavy blizzard and ready to spring again. Especially I like summer and winter movements. Classic music is never hard music genre, if you have new mind and listen to classic music again.

Finn being an artist changes the story because in my opinion, first Finn (in the book : Pip) and Estella had first meeting in Ms. Dinsmoor (in the book : Ms. Havisham) and Ms. Dinsmoor requested to Finn who drew to Estella. Estella was impressed from Finn’s picture which drew to her, Finn and Estella fell in love with together. Ms. Dinsmoor advised to Finn, if he really loved to her, at last he was hurt from her. Finally, Estella went to Paris, Finn gave up drawing a picture and he despaired. However, Finn became very famous painter and rich in New York, because of anonymous benefactor. Finn got riches, high status and renown then he met again with Estella, but she already promised to marry with another person, he was hurt again. After then Finn met Lustig (in the book : Magwitch) who was escaped prisoner that was helped from Finn, but he was not glad to him. That time, suddenly Lustig was stab from somebody and he took out blood-stained sketchbook whose Finn always carried when he was young in his breast. So, Finn knew the truth what Lustig was his benefactor. After that time, Finn came back his home and went to Ms. Dinsmoor’s house. In her home, Finn met Estella again. Finally, they were happy again.
