my writing is quite long
but hope it's not too boring to read :)
When I was looking at the list of courses I might want to take, one name caught my eyes- Jon H. Bahk. Because there is a famous good-looking star featuring in a Korean TV program whose name is John Park. I wanted to take English writing class for the first place and the appealing(?) name helped me finalize my decision.
It was the first day of the crourse. Everybody was quiet and seemed quite nervous including myself. The professor with a catchy name was there in front of the class. He wasn't tall. He had gray hair. He didn't look too young. He had a cute potbelly. Most importantly, though, he looked professional with his glasses. I was excited and waited for him to speak out a word. And he did. He gave a full presentation about the course. Then I thought to myself,
'Wow….. this IS going to be a tough class. I better get scholarship this semester, but with this course….hm…. maybe I should reconsider about taking the course.'
While I was busy worrying, the new slide popped up on the screen. It was a picture of cute, nice looking little boy and another picture of a woman in black and white next to it. The professor started to talk about his personal life- his family. As he was talking about his family members, I could see him in different perspective. He looked much friendlier and had brighter speech tone. He referred to his family as "life."
"Work is work and life is life,"
he added. The way how he introduced his family to the class was quite touching. Though it seemed quite normal, I was moved. I think it's because I recently had a family problem. Watching the professor talking about his family, I came to think how important it is to love and care about family. In fact, I realized how beautiful it is. I believe the only blood-sharing people in the world are not something we get for granted. In other words, we should realize the value of family and appreciate for parental love, not taking them for granted.

ReplyDeleteI think our topic is something great. Am I right? Then you chose a wrong topic. I'm sorry, professor. It's just a kidding.^ ^
Well, you did a good job and your writting is very funny, so it is not boring at all.
Actually, your writting is very interesting but there's a weak point that you didn't write a topic sentence or topic paragraph. It will be great if you choose a more specific topic and write the topic sentence in the beginning of your writting.
Thank you ^^

ReplyDeleteI was also impressed with his sales speech in the first class. So I read your writting feeling sympathy.
Actually we have to write a paragraph, but you wrote two paragraphs. The first paragraph is kind of introduction?
And something that you thought great might be professor, the class or the value of family that you got from professor's presentation. I think there are many things in a paragraph. You had better write those things in different paragraphs.
