About St. Patrick’s Day
Mar/17/2010

Yesterday, Susan who was my class lecturer worn a green clothes and earring. Actually, first I did not interested in her style by the way, one of my classmates know to me why Susan wore a green clothes and earring. However, my classmate also knew some knowledge she did not know correctly name of March 17th day that wore green color clothes and other things. So, I searched internet website about this day. The proper name of this day was St. Patrick’s Day. Originally, this day was the biggest commemoration day in Ireland, today United States, Canada and many countries also commemorate this day. Most people were worn green clothes, hat, scarf and shoes etc in St. Patrick’s Day. However, why people wore all green in St. Patrick’s Day? Because when a missionary St. Patrick first introduced the Christian religion, he explained the Christianity that described ‘Shamrock’ like similar three leaves clover. So, ‘Shamrock’ had been become the flower which symbolized Ireland. A green color was the meaning grass name ‘Shamrock’ or ‘come to spring’ and the national flag color of Ireland. On the one hand, in this day, some people made a gift books to kind people and stuck dried three leaves clover in books, moreover if they were lovers or sweethearts, they made a present four leaves clover that was meaning ‘fortune’ to them.

Mar.14/2010 : Special 14th days in South Korea


Special 14th days in South Korea
Mar/14/2010
March 14th is White Day. However, White Day exists in South Korea and Japan. Generally, White Day is similar to Valentine’s Day, but South Korea’s Valentine’s Day differs United States of America’s Valentine’s Day. South Korea’s Valentine’s Day only women give chocolate to men. Because of this reason, I believe that White Day exists. White Day only men give candy to women and most men and women are lovers or sweethearts. So, interestingly South Korea has day of various names at 14th every month. For example, January 14th : Diary Day, April 14th : Black Day, May 14th : Rose Day, June 14th : Kiss Day, July 14th : Silver Day, August 14th : Green Day, September 14th : Photo Day, October 14th : Wine Day, November 14th : Movie Day and December 14th : Hug Day. However, I don’t know how long have been these days. Most of 14th Days have something in common. These are days for lovers or sweethearts. However, April 14th differs other days. April 14th is Black Day. This is day for solo men or women. This day, most solo people meet in Korean Chinese restaurant (Jajang myun is not original Chinese food) and they eat Jajang myun (explanation : Jajang myun is food which makes Jajang source with 5 ~ 6 materials.) In my thinking, Jajang myun may symbolize black. Because, Jajang myun’s color is black and eating is simple moreover, cost is very cheap. However, It only my thinking, I don’t know why solo people eat Jajang myun at Black Day. Perhaps, in my opinion, I think that all 14th days are simply marketing tactics from many companies.

What do you think about the adventure story.


What do you think about adventure story. (All of your thinking)

Mar/12/2010

In my thinking, the adventure story has materials to stimulus human’s senses. Especially, I believe that exciting sense is very strong. Generally, most people when they watch to the adventure movies or read to the adventure books, they because of adventure materials, always concentrate to them. In my opinion, I think that adventure materials need nonexistent fantastic places in the world, many events and interesting story to stimulus human’s mind. For example The Load of the Rings, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Golden Compass and Recently open movie Avatar are very popular things from many people. Why these things appeal to many people, because they are sufficient to adventure materials. If they do not one of the elements, they cannot appeal to people’s mind. As a result, the adventure materials are very important in the adventure story.
