Min's Life in Canada (1st)

New Life in Canada

Friday, March 03, 2006

Today was silent day. I was home all day long without going out.
What I did was keeping a diary of yesterday, watching on TV as a curling game, studying and doing some housework. That's it.
When I was asked to cut up some green onion, tears came into my eyes while cutting. I had never done it before. I cried for a while naturally and then I wiped my tears with a tissue. haha It was funny.
By chance one thought came to me. That was what It become the time when I go about here. I thought that It's good idea to take a walk alone around here. First, I want to go to the public library near our home and then I will think another plan next time.
(Frankly, I don't have any plan in detail :S)

Visit to the University of Regina

I went to university of Regina with Mom yesterday.
Because I had some question to ask her who is in charge of the ESL.
Most of the road froze like the ice. So we had to be careful driving the car.
I guess that It was snowing heavily all through the night.
All around us was white. I could even hear the sound of snow from when steping.
When I came up to the university of Regina, there were a lot of international students as well as Canadian. I felt like a little fear. It was like advancing waves come to me.
I didn't even know what to turn my eyes when I came face to face with people.
Even now this new world excited me because I like challenge about new things.
There are interesting facilities
such as for basketball, swimming, dance, computer, internet, library etc... Unfortunately, I cannot use it until the end of March then I can be the real student.
I often could hear talking with Japanese and Chinese etc. Fortunately, I couldn't catch the Korean talking. I neven even speak the Korean language if possible, even if the Korean people is around me. It's my rule and my way. Please...
My dad of my homestay was sick. I didn't know how much he was. I just could see the swollen neck of him. I am still worried because he was off the work for 2 days, including today. Luckily, he still looked healthy except it. I hope he gets well as soon as possible.

My dream

I still feel choke up as usual. because I could not find how I go near that.
What is the way to clear up a bit of a mess in my mind?
It is natural surely that I have a lot of things I don't know more than the things I know so much.
In spite of myself,
probably I may have a lot of desire.
It is terrible that I run into a same thing almost everyday without a change.
What should I do in an unclear state?
I know that It's gonna ok as time goes by. but I am not sure.
I may want something else because I have stayed for a long time at home since I came here.
It is
partly wrong that I am nervous because It may be a little different way between you and me.
I am stuffy when I couldn't speak what I want to say.
I want to discover me getting better and better.
I wonder what I am looking at. Probably it may be a vagueness.
I know it makes me afraid because I have no idea at all.
It is obviously attractive merit that I am good at another language skilfully.
I hope to realize my dream.
Please, lead me into the right path.

PS. About this essay, It took so lots of time to express my thoughts in writing like searching dictionary many times etc. I am completely worn out.
I had better go to bed right now. It's too late as usual.
Am I goofy? stupid? lunatic? turnip truck? >_<

My Way

I don't know on earth what to do. Suddenly I seem to be lost my way.
Did I get a stress? What is it? I am sure that I am out of mind obviously.
I should be glad due to have enough time until the first semester.
I can do a lot of things such as taking a time without any meaning or studying, watching TV, reading books, talking with mom and dad etc. I can do
whatever I want.
Therefore It is natural that I am happy.
I had better get such lots of experiences as reading, listening, speaking, writing of English as much as possible
without a stress or gramma. I have never thought of English seriously.
I am in Canada instead of Korea this time. My original plan was what I come here at the middle of March. Anyway It's good for me. I cannot say again about it.
I hope I get up powerfully and enjoy my new life. That is the way I go.

tired, concerned etc

I think I went away from jet lag too far because 3 weeks passed since I was here.
I feel, nevertheless, so tired. I always have a enough sleep. I always get up at about afternoon.
I wonder I have a problem with my eyes. My eyes would be sore a little as no water on eyeball. It is ok if I had a enough sleep or not.
My eyelid are heavy and I am very sleepy. Something that I didn't know are in my mind. I am afraid of it. I need to clean in my head. I know It is not good of the useless idea. I have to go to bed right now and ready to meet a next time. It is already at 3:40 am. It's too late. I hope to enjoy this time without any anxiety and worry. It's going to be Ok while I am not aware of it.

First posting in Regina

I am happy to make my blog here. I have already had my blog but it is made from Korea. My friends who know me or not from another country cannot read it. I am poor at English but I have to write everything in English because I am in Canada. So I am gonna start my blog from now. The stroy begins...
Today is Sunday. Three weeks passed away since I came here. I am in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. It is cold and sometimes, snowing and windy etc. Before I came here I traveled around Vancouver and Seattle(USA) for 4 days. It was so nice day in spite of the winter.I am satisfied with the new life of Regina. Though it is cold it doesn't matter. Because I got good things much more. There are my room and Mom and Dad of homestay who are so nice and funny. They are always arguing and laughing that I couldn't understand it for the first time. But that is a life of them and I was getting used of it. :)

I cannot still understand what they are saying and there are a lot of things I didn't know. I would talk to them such a idea and then they would say me 'don't worry, Rome isn't built in a day'. That's right and I think so.
Our meals are always different almost everyday. Mom like cook so much. Today, Mom made the Twisted Roll for dessert. It's really yummy. I like everything of food Mom made. My classes start at March, 29th. I have lots time yet. I have to study but it's also important to adapt Canadian lifestyle. I often help some housework for them and me.
I am lucky guy because I meet a good people who is my second parents. I am sure I am happy while I live with them. Not yet, I don't have friends who live here. The day which I talk with somebody who is a friend of mine will come to me. I am sure.
