The Gestures of korea

   As you can see, gestures is movements that communicate feelings or instruction. One of the most general feelings is greetings. The representitive gesture of Korea is to bow before the respectables. Not only that, but the person who was bowed by someone need to return a bow. I heven't seen foreigners' bow until now. I think most foreigners have special reasons about that. As it is, the actural grstures we use are different from country to country. Nevertheless, we should learn the gestures becasue observance of social custums is a common chracteristic of a civilized society.

Money can't buy happiness

   Generally speaking, we are trying to find employment. The reason that why we work is we need money to live. Money is a necessity to provide for the basics of life. But then increasing sums of money do not increase our enjoyment of life, just our desire for more money.
   Here is a wise saying: People's rating of their own happiness does not increase as their income rises, because their appetite for products increases with their income.

Chinese Superstitions

   The number 8 is deeply relating to Chinese. They really like a number 8. For instance, the number of cellular phone consist of  the figure 8 have been sold with much more expensive price in China. Not only that, but the color that they fancy like the figure 8 is a red. That is why it means the symbol of sun, a pleasure and a happy event. Perhaps trusting of  the supersitions has no its effects, but I prefer to decide a number of uniform with a figure 8!

Conservation & Progress

   As we have seen, there is a generation gap between old and young people. when I went to school, one generation meant 10 years. However, unlike the 1990s, nowadays people say that one generation's interval has diminishied quickly. Therefore, generation gap is big more and more!
   For this reason, sometimes conservative people can conflict with pregressive people. According to the ages of my family members, my father and I had four decades between us. I recognize that interval of the gab can't easily narrow and it could be impossible.

Eyeless sight

   I think eyeless sight is concerned about human's brain. In addition to the blind paint, wonderfulness can also happened in out world. This reflects scientists can't fully understand how our brain affects human's activity. In other words, we need to study the human's brain. As it is, Albert Einstein's brain was different from general people. Puttinf it succinctly, the human should recognize their limitations of knowledge.

Learning another language

   As we have seen, there are many different ways people can learn a language. I think that I prefer a kinesthetic learners to visual & auditory learners. From my experence, a good way to learn English is by listening to talks. Aside from listening to talks, reading is important to learn English too. However, the thing that integrate listening and reading is to live native speaker. For this reason, physical activity learners can learn English very well. The methods that I have tried are to keep using English. For this reason, I took a STEP beyond winter camp.
