Summer Holidays

 

Yay! It’s finally summertime. It’ll be a few months of never ending leisure. I wish that it will be a perfect one. I’ll be going to New York in a few days time. Dad had already booked the air tickets through his mobile. He is the one who will be sponsoring our trip. Thank you so much dad, how could I repay your kindness? Muaks love you….

 

It’ll just be HuShin, Crue Min and me. Although I’m still a little worried about a “not so lively trip”, but my eagerness to search for my lost sister had allowed me to forget all worries of an unexciting flight to New York City. Lately, I have been hanging out with Huye Min and Crue Min every weekend. I still felt very distance from Huye Min’s twin; we had nothing in common, really…. nothing in common at all. Our hobbies are totally different and the way we carry ourselves are totally opposite.

                                                       

Example, I like interacting with people, when I meet them but Crue Min had made me feel very uneasy all the time. This was due to his quiet personality. I told Huye Min about my worries about Crue Min but Huye Min just reminded me that Crue Min just needed some warming up because I’m still new to him. She added that, Crue Min had always been the “quiet one” in their family and seldom interacts with people especially girls of his age. There here again you see we’re totally opposite. In my family, although I’m considered a not so noisy ones but I’m still a quiet talker. Sigh, hope, what Huye Min said about her twin is accurate. Just have to wait a little longer to see. Alright I will give Crue Min some more time. Lolz what am I talking about? Am I writing about Crue Min again? He is not that important, so why bother about him not talking to me? This is really funny huh. Will have to stop scribbling about Crue Min. Lets talk about, erm today’s food.

 

 

Mom had made a yummilicious famous Korean dish for dinner, “pulgogi”, or also known as “fire beef” in English. It is a thinly sliced marinated beef. Some call it barbecued beef, and it is also a popular dish among tourist too. A spicy hot “kimchi” is also added in the dish. My mom once told me when she taught me how to cook, that “kimchi” is a valuable source of Vitamin C. Mom told me that “kimchi” is good for health. Although I’m a Korean, I still can’t eat such spicy food. Mom reminded me about my younger days as a primary school student. I often cry when I taste anything too spicy for me.

Hey there. It's summer there?? Fall just started here. I'm looking into getting a thermal imaging camera which is just like a video camera except instead of it recording what you are looking at it records everything in shades of red, yellow, blue and green indicating what temperature things are. I already have an Olympus video camera, kodak 35mm camera, and a icam digital camera but thank you for helping me :) And don't worry...I'm not letting people who say mean things get to me, just ignoring them from here on out.

Your site is actually quite interesting, for a number of reasons...I really like your approach...very unique...in a novel-type format...and your inclusion of tradition and even food gives it an added attraction...If you were looking for a few suggestions I would highly recommend that you drop back over to my journal when you have the chance...in the top left corner under links you'll see "Astral Musing" which is my poetry site (I am a writer as well)and VERY different from my journal...it will give you some ideas I'm sure as far as graphics...and places to get them for free...Additionally, on my friend's list, one journal in particular called "Fallen Moonlight" is an excellent example of some of the things you can do...on her web page she has like major links for free graphics and places you can even make up a special banner for your journal here...all free stuff...I will definitely be back and look forward to seeing you create...Be well, my friend.

i think you need to have clear flows in your stories, mixing up character and food is not really a good move as it have no relation at all. the beginning is good but towards the end when u describe the food it just doesnt click, you have to do some editing here, if u want to talk about the character, by all means please do.. if the main character feels that she will faced difficullities in handling the other character, you can actually write on how she will handle the situation instead of talking about food. you can talk about food but as it falls under culture and tradition, i think its best if slot it in in the beginning of the story when you talk about the character background rather than in the middle when the character almost begin her journey looking for her sister. in my opinion you dont really need to go into detail about the food as it will take the attention away from the main point that u want your reader to get. facts as it rich with Vitamin C is not really necessary to be in the context. it looks delicious though..
