A Girl Who Write As She Feels Like

     Hello, everyone. Nice to see you again here. The weather seems to be crazy, so I cannot choose easily what to wear. Take care yourselves in such an annoying change of the season.
     This time I would like to tell you how I write. I am a very big fan of writing, especially about me and my days. However, I don't like to show what I write to someone. It's a top secret. :P I have written my diary since I was 21 by myself. Actually, we were forced to keep a diary everyday in elementary school. I didn't enjoy that much as any children did. Unlike that time, recording my each day was my only joy. I collected a mountain of stickers to decorate my lovely diary. Anybody who has seen my diary was surprised how I did. I want to show some picture of it, but the USB that photos are in isn't with me, unfortunately. I will attach them when I get it back from my friend.
     Anyway, when I write a diary, I don't think so deeply. Just remind me of what I did well and bad, who was on my nerves, who was nice to me, and so on. I am a person who lacks concentration, but not very, so my writing is fun and not so serious. These days I am writing some serious diary because I don't see my future clearly, though.
     My boyfriend sometimes recommends me to be a writer. He is a big fan of my essay, but I don't think I am a good one who can let people touched. I need to be learned.
     Let me tell you how I come up what to write when I do in academic way. I have some experience to take a writing exam;in a test to go to the US for free as language study abroad, and to be a student in English Essay Writing class. I couldn't get the chance to go to the US. Yet, I realised I had to learn how to write from then on, so I am here!
     Here is how I come up with how I write in another case.
     First, when I get the topic that I have to write I try to connect with my own experience. It helps me a lot to develop my essay. I guess I spend less than 20 minutes on finding the related experience. Then, I draw the structure of the direction.
     Second, I search for something enable to be connection between the topic and experience. So to speak, it is a transition. I like to use a suitable figure of speech. For instance, when I begin an essay, I like to mention something like fairy tales that the main character replaced by me. It attracts the reader's interest.
     Third, I write as well as I can.
     At last, I finish the essay referring to my conclusion. It can be suggestions, opinion, whatever. It depends on the genre of an essay.
     There is one thing that I didn't know until I failed to go to the US for free. I wrote the conclusion at the end of an essay. Of course, I did at the test. However, sadly, it wasn't a good way in writing. I realised that very much, and now I do mention the main point at the very first paragraph-or it can be at the second-definitely.

     That's all for homework this week, and have a nice weekend!

p.s the test to go to the US was held by language centre, and 17 students got the chance. They stayed at Monclair Uni. for 2 weeks.
+ I would like to learn the use of punctuation marks. I am not sure about the marks I used here. Please let me know, Sarah. :)

Nice to Meet You.

     Good afternoon, class. This is Jihyun Kang, but you just call me Whidley. My boyfriend gave me my English name. I am pretty indecisive and it's 휘둘리다(hui-dul-li-da) in Korean. That's where my English name, Whidley came from. It sounds the same, doesn't it?

     I was born in Busan, but grown in Changwon. I have lived in Seoul since 2007. My parents still live in Changwon so I cannot see them very often.

     My major is metal craft art&design, but I don't think I will keep my major. I would like to work in trade. I like English and have a very huge urge to learn new language and culture. The reason I keep studying English is to be friends all over the world and to work abroad.

     I think English writing is a very important skill to upgrade my English further. I decided to take this class this semester. Through this class, I want to know the very usual phrase in English. Then, I can communicate with the native more naturally.
     I prefer the British accent, so I always try to speak like them. It's so difficult for me. I am not so good at pronunciation. I need to practice. I hope my English gets gorgeous through this class.

     Nice to be your classmate. Have a good weekend! See you on Wednesday. :)

Whidley.
