9월 19일 “Living alone for the first time”

Sometimes, I find myself thinking about my days living in a dorm as a student. 문득 생각할때가 있다.
I got accepted into a university far from home, and it was my first time living apart from my parents.
Some kids arrived at the dorm with their parent’s cars packed with belongings.
But I traveled by bus with my mom, and all I had were some daily necessities and three sets of clothes.
When I arrived at the dorm for the first time, I was over the moon to have some space to myself. I had my own bed, and most importantly, plenty of hot water for showers.
Meanwhile, my mom told me she spent days crying her eyes out after leaving me at the dorm.
I only heard about this after I graduated from college.
Looking back, I think children grow up to be more resilient than their parents expect.

9월 20일 “Overseas trip for a big family”

I am the eldest of four siblings, and my youngest brother is currently living in Japan.
Thanks to the unprecedented weak yen and the close distance, we decided to plan a family trip to visit him.
We are a large family of 11 people, including my parents in their 70s, my younger sister and her husband, two nephews, the children’s single uncle, and my family of four.
With my brother and his wife joining us locally, it would be a major event with 13 familly members.
Since our group includes men and women of all ages, there were many preparations to make.
First, we needed to rent cars, so some of us prepared international driving permits.
Second, we gathered basic medications and the prescription meds we were taking.
Lastly, we signed up for short-term travel insurance and completed our preparations.
As with any trip, we expect some ups and downs, but we believe it will be a memorable experience and pray for a safe journey.

9월 18일 “Gold medalist pro gamers”

For the generation in their 20s and 30s, e-sports are just as popular as traditional sports.
Reflecting this popularity, e-sports were included as an official event at the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou.
The most popular game is "League of Legends (LoL)," an online game where teams of five players compete against each other in a virtual space.
The Asian Games featured participants from 15 countries.
Korea performed flawlessly, not losing a single set from the preliminaries to the finals.
In the finals, they took down their rival, China, to win the gold medal.
I want to applaud our national team, who gave their best despite the short preparation period and ultimately topped the podium.

9월 17일 “Korean broadcasts with English subtitles”

When I first started studying English, I made a resolution to only consume content in English.
But as time passed, I began to miss out on many Korean TV shows.
Sometimes, I felt like I was falling behind the times.
So, to keep up with Korea content and alleviate the guilt of neglecting my E studies, I started watching K videos with English subtitles.
I believe it will be a useful way to learn E expressions that accurately reflect the nuances of the original Korean.
I frequently use a digital not app to organize E translations of Korean expressions that I am likely to use.
I think it will be very helpful to record myself reading them aloud and listen to them repeatedly.

9월 16일 “Preparing for Grade School”

My child will soon be entering elementary school.
The thought of my child starting grade school next year made me feel a bit anxious.
I've heard that while kindergarteners return home after 4 in the afternoon, grade school kids come home shortly after lunch.
That means there isn't much free time left over for the moms.
So, I decided to prepare this year for certification exams that take up a lot of time.
First, I studied for and obtained certification as an elementary school math instructor.
Next, I earned a certificate for computerized accounting.
It required more test prep than I expected because it was an unfamiliar field.
I had to take the test with a sense of tension that I hadn't felt in a while.
Before my child starts elementary school, I plan to prepare for two more certifications.
I believe showing my child the effort I put into studying is a valuable lesson.
I'm not sure whether these certifications will ever come in handy. 유용하게 사용되다
But I believe the time and effort I spent will not be in vain. 헛되이 되다
