About Global Warming
definition of global warming is referred to increase in the average temperature of the earth's near surface air and oceans in recent decades and its projected continuation. the causes are orbital forcing of sun, volcanic eruptions, and atmospheric green house gas concentrations. the most reason is green house effect which is due to human activity and nowadays the global warming is serious problem all over the world because if the problem is to be continuous, only a few area will be existent.
so we have to prevent that terrible future situation and start to preserve our earth right now. how should we do to help our earth environmental problem? we have some ways which support to prevent increasing temperature. first we should reduce co2 gas which influences global warming absurdly.

A point of view of global warming
For years people all over the world have argued this topic. We have gotten lots of solutions to solve the problem named GLOBAL WARMING by biologists or scientists. But as a matter of fact, we have just let it go and ignored it. Ignorance is not a solution. It just sends the problem to our future. Everyone has noticed that the earth is somewhat strange compared with decades ago. Before it is too late, we ought to consider that for ourselves and the next generation.
Firstly, the climate has changed. How has it changed since childhood? The temperatures are different from what they used to be. For example, in Japan, it used to snow more often like 10 days per year. But now, it only snows once a year or never. It means, of course, it is getting hotter and hotter. In Canada they did not have the white Xmas last year. I am not 100% sure but I believe the global warming is one of the causes.
If we let global warming go, what is the earth going to be in the future? Icebergs would melt because of the heat. The animals that live in polar regions would lose their places to live. The water which came from icebergs will make the sea level high. People who live in lower land would have to run away somewhere else higher land if it DID happen. Basically I wrote those sentences in second conditional. However it really happens. The x-day which the earth dies out is coming in near future.
Just lamenting how people are stupid and selfish does’t make sense. Let’s be more productive. As I told you, we have gotten some solutions as 3R; Reuse Reduce and Recycle. It is not difficult like”Stop breathing or CO2 is increasing!!”. One thing I could advice you is adding things that you could start right now on your task. Many little things add up.

In terms of business, I am telling you from now. People in the business scene could make everything business. For example, if somebody very popular for a singer died, people could make a tribute CD or something like that. That was a sad situation because a human died. They are making money from a dead person.However it will have happened forever unless there is money in this world. Have you thought of that the tendency shifts to a good and positive way?
Changing our habit like wasting water, buying unnecessary things or car idling is very difficult. Then why don't we get power to change these things? As an example, every company makes a hybrid car. There are only hybrid cars in the world. Business could change everything they want. In Japan, some stores had a new rule connected to the global warming. Every time you got a small bag, you have to pay for the bag you got. It is only 5cents. People who don't want to pay for it would change their store which they used to go. But if every store has the new rule, it is going to be more effective. I heard from my host father that Canada has the same thing in a few supermarket. I think this is a very good idea.
All countries should follow the Kyoto Prompt, but U.S. I haven't understoo
d why they didn't agree. The agreement, this is true, would prevent from developing, but that doesn't make sense not to sign the agreement.They just want keep am arm length from that issue. Of course it is inconvenient truth for politicians.

Of course it is inconvenient truth for politicians. As my conclusion, we have gotten lots of things we have to think. But the problem is that politicians don't care if this world is going to be. Again before it is too late, we have to do something we can do from now. Any little things are acceptable.
GLOBAL WARMING
The first picture or earth from space was taken in in 1968 and it showed an atmosphere without pollution. But things have changed a bit since 1968 because now, earth's atmosphere is polluted with CO2 wich causes increase in the average temperature of the earth's near surface air and oceans. The most CO2 in earth's atmosphere, warmer ins the temperature. This is what we call Global Warming.
The most vulnerable part of the earth is the atmosphere because is very thin. Is thin enough that we can change it's composition. The atmosphere is being thicken by pollution and most of the warm from the sun is getting traped between the earth and the atmosphere wich causes ocean warming, sea-level rise and coastal flooding.
As trees grow they take in CO2 from the air. When the wood dies the CO2 is returned to the air. Forest clearance and wood burning (such as happens in tropical rain forests) is increasing the latter half of the process, adding to the CO2 in the atmosphere.
When the oceans get warmer, it causes big storms and hurricanes that will become more frequent and stronger as oceans heat up causing more water to evaporate. Evidence is building up at an alarming rate. But Global Warming not only increases precipitations but relocates these precipitations. It creates more evaporation from the ocean's water but it also evaporates soil water.
Glaciers around the world benefits earth's atmosphere because they reflect the sun like a mirror and cool the air, but because of the earth's heating the glaciers are melting and the thickness of the Artic has decreased 40%. They are melting so fast that soon, there won't be enough water for people from the Himayas whom get water from the glaciers.
Other direct manifestations of Global Warming are heat waves and periods of unusually warm weather, earlier spring arrival, plant and animal range shifts and population changes, coral reef bleaching, heavy snowfalls and fires.
The earth's heat is going up each day. The ten hottest years have ocurred in the last 14 years and the hottest was 2005. Scientists think that CO2 levels will go off the charts in less than 50 years, wich means that earth's heat will be so high that living here will be almost impossible.
But is there something we can do to save our planet? There is much we can do to decrease earth's heat like recycling, use public tranportation instead of car in order to reduce CO2 emissions to the air, do not use disposal products, plant more trees, use electricity in a more responsable way, keep up on the maintenance of your refrigerator and air conditioners as they can leak very toxic and harmful chemicals, industry has to take on-going measures to reduce the emission of gases to the atmosphere.
Global Warming
HELP OUR PLANET!!!!
THE EARTH NEEDS YOU
Gore's claim is that global warming and cooling is real and largely human-caused. In his movie Gore explains to us the important issue of this environmental problem by showing us some photographs taken of the Earth in the year 1968 by NASA astronauts, well we can describe the huge change the Earth is having by this issue. In my opinion this is a real thing that is changing our life . But the question here is what we can do to prevent the Earth from being damaged, first what are the World's nations doing.This is a very complicated problem because global warming is being caused by factory's , cars and other industrial products that are making pollution.But if we ban all factory's from making pollution the Nations will lose a lot of money so their economy will decrease. that is true but I think is more important to protect our environment.
In December 11 of 1997 the industrial nations signed the Kyoto protocol , but what is the Kyoto protocol? is a is an amendment to the international treaty on climate change, assigning mandatory emission limitations for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions to the signatory nations.
The objective of the protocol is the "stabilization of greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system.
Well do I think the Kyoto protocol will end the global warming , my answer is no because this is a issue that concern all the World not only the industrial nations , we all need to help to eradicate.
Saving earth is every one's responsibility. The damages done to the earth resources have to be slowed-down and eventually stop if we want our children and grand-children to enjoy a healthy outdoor life like we can.
This problem have a lot effects in our life, though it is difficult to connect specific weather events to global warming, an increase in global temperatures may in turn cause other changes , including glacial retreat and worldwide sea level rises. Changes in the amount and pattern of precipitation may result in flooding and drought. There may also be changes in the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. Other effects may include changes in agricultural yields, reduced summer stream flows, species extinctions and increases in the range of disease vectors.
Some effects on both the natural environment and human life are, at least in part, already being attributed to global warming. A 2001 report suggests that glacier retreat, ice shelf disruption such as the Larsen Ice Shelf, sea level rise, changes in rainfall patterns, increased intensity and frequency of extreme weather events, are being attributed in part to global warming.While changes are expected for overall patterns, intensity, and frequencies, it is difficult to attribute specific events to global warming. Other expected effects include water scarcity in some regions and increased precipitation in others, changes in mountain snow pack, and adverse health effects from warmer temperatures.
Over the past several years, public perceptions and attitudes concerning the causes and importance of global warming have changed.Increased awareness of the scientific findings surrounding global warming has resulted in political and economic debate. Poor regions, particularly Africa, appear at greatest risk from the suggested effects of global warming, while their actual emissions have been negligible compared to the developed world. At the same time, developing country exemptions from provisions of the Kyoto Protocol have been criticized by the United States and Australia, and have been used as part of their rationale for continued non-ratification.In the Western world, the idea of human influence on climate and efforts to combat it has gained wider acceptance in Europe than in the United States.

Something to mull over.
Drought, wildfire seasons, more intense rainstorms, more powerful and dangerous hurricanes, are all some examples of the consequences that we have today because of Global Warming. You can see these problems everywhere.
Do you remember hurricane Katrina? It was one of the most destructive storms ever to strike the United States. Why was it so strong? We need to understand what Global Warming is and what is causing it.
We are going to start with the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon which makes life in the earth possible. It is caused by gases in the atmosphere that cause heat from the sun (which is reflected by our planet) to stay here. This maintains the medium global temperature; without which earth would be uninhabitable. There is a direct relation between global warming and the increase in the greenhouse gases. Naturally sun rays cross the atmosphere, part of that radiation is retained by greenhouse gases and the other part, goes back to the space. But the burning of combustible fuels, the deforestation, etc. increase the quantity of greenhouse gases. Then, the atmosphere, retains more heat, and the planet gets hot. The major greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), ozone, and some others.
Global warming is real and we have to do something before it becomes an incorrigible problem.
If we do not stop the global warming, we can expect unbelievable consequences. If western Antarctica or Greenland melt, sea levels could rise by more than 20 feet which means that cities will start to inundate. The change in the weather will affect the species worldwide, specially those which live in polar regions, a lot of species could be driven to extinction. Heat waves will be more frequent and more intense. Simply, we can expect catastrophic consequences.
The atmospheric concentration of CO2 and methane have increased considerably and are now higher than at any time in the past. Studies have indicated a rapid rise in CO2 since the industrial revolution.
It is very sad to look at pictures about how beautiful places like Patagonia used to be 75 years ago, or how Kilimanjaro used to be 30 years ago, when there was snow, and how it is now without snow.
In December 1997, the Kyoto Protocol was created. The objective of the protocol is the reduction of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Until December 2006, a total of 169 countries had ratified the Kyoto Protocol. Unfortunately, there are two advanced countries who have not ratified it, United States and Australia.
It is not too late to take action. You can start using energy more efficiently at home, an example is: replace a regular incandescent light bulb with a compact fluorescent light bulb; use less hot water, it takes a lot of energy to heat water; use a clothesline instead of a dryer whenever possible; be sure you are recycling at home; plant a tree. You can reduce greenhouse gases by using your car efficiently too, example: reduce miles you drive by walking, biking or taking mass transit wherever possible; try car sharing.
Global Warming is a big problem for humanity, and each one of us must heed this subject and do something. We can start in our homes, teaching our children. We can help with a grain of sand!

GLOBAL WARMING
The global average air temperature near the Earth's surface rose 0.74+-0.18 degrees Celsius during the last 100 years. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concludes, " Most of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-20Th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations" via the greenhouse effect. Natural phenomena such as solar variation combined with volcanoes probably had a small warming effect from pre-indusrtial times to 1950 and a small cooling effect from 1950 onward.
These basic conclusions have been endorsed by at least 30 scientific societies and academies of science, including all of the national academies of science of the major industrialized countries. However, a few individual scientists disagree with some of the main conclusions of the IPCC.
Causes
Earth's climate changes in response to external forcing, including variations in its orbit around the sun(orbit forcing) volcanic eruption, and atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations. The detailed causes of the resent warming remain an active field of research, but the scientific consensus identifies elevated levels of greenhouse gases due to human activity as the main influence. This attribution is clearest for the most recent 50 years, for which the most detailed data are available.
In contrast to the scientific consensus that resent warming is mainly attributable to elevated levels of greenhouse gases, other hypotheses have been suggested to explain the observed increase in mean global temperature. One such hypothesis proposes that warming may be the result of variation in solar activity.
To solve these problems..
There are lots of reasons of global warming but many reasons are in our life. So, it's usually very easy to find how to solve the problems about global warming.
Many people use spray. Shave cream, hair spray, deodorant, and so on.. have Freon gas in it. Freon gas makes the atmosphere break. It's possible to be made hole i the OZONE and heat the earth.
Also, we should invent efficient hybrid car. The fuel gasoline car makes the air dirty and be heated up. Recently, there are some hybrid cars in some countries, but the efficiency of the hybrid car is not enough to attract customers to buy it.
That's why we should invent high- efficient hybrid car.
Using air conditioner is also one of the reason of global warming. The air conditioner exhausts hot air to the air. Recently, many houses use air conditioner even though it's not pretty hot in summer, and lots of houses hue it for a whole day.. It's not only waste of electricity but making atmosphere hot. We should reduce the time to use air conditioner in household.
Using public transportation is good way to commute everyday. We can make the air and atmosphere safe , not to be heated.
There are a lot of ways to keep the earth safe and clear to live.
Our duty is very simple. We should leave good nature to live for our descendant. It's not difficult but many people pay no regard to nature. We should care about our future!

To find solutions of global warming.
Have you ever mulled over global warming? Even though it is very serious problem all over the world today, we are just being laconic when we are talking about global warming. To tell the true, the earth and many things on the earth have started to be damaged by global warming and it is plain to see that these symptoms will be getting worse. However, many people are apathetic about it because they don't feel that global warming is their problem and it begins with ignorance. To find solutions, we have to start with understanding what global warming is and how serious it is. That means as we are deeply versed as about the problem, we can find the answer easily.
What is the global warming? It is literally the phenomenon that the temperature of global is rising. It is related to the green house effect and it is caused by increasing the amount of carbon dioxide. Originally the sun ray goes into the earth and then some of the sun ray has to reflect and get out of the upper atmosphere but the layer of carbon dioxide which is getting thicker blocks the way the sun ray goes out. Because of this phenomenon, the earth has been more heated by the sun ray that was not able to go out. We call this phenomenon the greenhouse effect. But then, what makes the layer of carbon dioxide get thicker? The answer is that we do. Every single day we are making lots of carbon dioxide. Some of developed countries and developing countries are making lots of harmful gas including carbon dioxide for their economic reason. And also it could be caused by burning fuel. However, we are using fuel for our convenient life without concerning about it everyday.
Do you still think that changing of global climate makes you feel just hotter and more uncomfortable than before? Unfortunately it will bring more serious results than you think. First, it can affect sea level. Higher temperature can make icecap melting and the result of this the sea level will be raised. That means the beaches can be swallowed by the sea. In addition if it is getting worse, some of island countries would be disappeared. Next, it can make an impact on agriculture. Some of agricultural crops are affected by climates. Some of crops and fruit can not be grown with high temperature. So it is possible it will be very difficult to get these kinds of crops and fruit in the near future.That mean this phenomenon can lead to food shortage. High temperature also will make more weeds and harmful insects. It predicts that the condition of agriculture will get worse. Third, more disasters will take place and will get stronger. We were able to see how serious global warming is through Katrina, which was a hurricane that had swept United States in 2005. At the last global warming will cause animals and plants' extinction. As global temperature will rise, some of animals and plants will lose their habitats. And extinction of one of the species of animals or plants can cause destroying an ecosystem.
Many scientists and people who concern about ambient are grappling with this. As I mentioned above, global warming is making many problems and will get more seriouse. As an effort of finding solution of it. we have to start with studying and concerning about environment or we can not focuse on the core of the problem and that means we can not make practical decisions.
we need to heed what is happening our surrouding for our future and the earth that we are living on. A little concern can lead a big changing.

For us and future generations.-Min
The global warming is getting worse. Climatic conditions are changing rapidly. This phenomenon is threatening us, animals, and nature. We should know what the global warming is, how it affect to the earth, and what we have to do.
Our earth takes sun's radiation. Some of The radiation absorbed and warming the earth is re-radiated back into space in the form infrared radiation. Some of the outgoing infrared radiation is trapped inside the atmosphere. But the problem is that this thin layer of atmosphere is being thickened by all of the global warming pollution that is being put up there. It makes layer of atmosphere thicker and thicker. More of the outgoing infrared is trapped. So the atmosphere heats up our earth. This is the global warming.
The reason why we have to concern about global warming is this has a tremendous effect on our existence. You might hear the fact that the increasing of CO2 turns the temperature of earth goes up. It's true. The increasing of CO2 and temperature fit together. The important thing is CO2 level has never gone above 300 parts per million for 650,000 years but CO2 and temperature have been increased enormously during developing period. At this point, we must keep in mind the truth that it will continue to go up in the next 50 years. Because of this, the glaciers which are located lots of places have been melting rapidly. For example, we can see only little glaciers at Mount Kilimanjaro, Glacier National Park, Himalayas, and Alps. The people who get lots of water for drinking from glaciers are in trouble.
We remember the Katrina that damaged to lots of structures and took lots of lives. The reason that occurred such a big hurricane is high temperature. The global warming makes temperature increases and as the water temperature increases, the wind velocity increases and the moisture content increases. That causes stronger storms. We can expect more dangerous storms every single year. Nobody wants that kind of disaster.
The nature has been crazy. The enormous floods have occurred lots of places. It killed a lot of people and caused billions of dollars worth of damage. I can tell more surprising fact. There are also lots of drought areas near by flood places. What a cruel disaster! And more, there are people who died from heat wave. There is no safe place from global warming.
The global warming melts ice of the Arctic and the Antarctic. Since 1970, there was a precipitous drop off in the amount and extent and thickness of the arctic ice cap. It has diminished by 40 percent in 40 years. In the next 50 or 70 years in summertime it will be completely gone. The creatures such as polar bears that depend on the ice have been drowned. Let me bring point to the Antarctic. If all of the Antarctic ice melts, most of land near the ocean is going to be submerged. This phenomenon occurs from dropping off land based ice. If the floating ice melts, the sea level wouldn't change but land based ice can raise the sea level about 20 feet. It is the same way which a cube sitting atop a stack of ice cubes melts and flows over the edge of the glass. It makes a cruel disaster which causes plenty of refuges. The truth which we ignore even though we know its serious problems has destroyed the nature.
In this situation, How can we solve this problem? Here are some suggestions. Firstly, we can produce and purchase goods which can reuse and recycle. Moreover, we have to develop the renewable technology. A lot of garbage that have usually been burned is discharging lots of CO2 at this time. This CO2 emission also causes serious global warming. The second thing is about vehicles. we should reduce using own cars. There are numerous cars as same as population of earth. The CO2 which is from cars have been helping to make atmosphere thicker. Our eccentric life style which is about using cars threatens our lives. We must take public transportations as possible as we can. Nowadays, we can buy hybrid cars which are efficient and not harmful to the nature. Finally, If we use more efficient electrical appliances, we can reduce amount of CO2 emissions.
It is important that we have to change our mind from conscience not political ways to show real four seasons to our descendants. We have been experienced horrible and terrible disasters and It is going to be worse. The human being's rapid development doesn't mean an affluent society but is connecting with word of destruction. Fortunately, the solutions are in our hands. We can reduce our carbon emissions to zero. Overall, we are not owner of the earth. We have just borrowed this blue planet so, there is obligation that we must keep the blue planet clean. We have to keep the pale blue dot which is in the universe for us and future generations.

For the Next Generation
We are confronted a big problem with the Earth. It is heading to a tragic conclusion nowadays. Have you ever heard about Global Warming? As the words say, it means something strange phenomenon that the temperature of the Earth is getting higher.
For a long time, we have developed a lot of things in many parts of diverse industry and have been trying to make our lives more convenient. On this way, the environment have been destroyed at the same time. Especially developing in some kinds of industry is caused for air pollution. And it plays a decisive role as momentum to promote Global Warming without doubt.
Another major man-made cause of Global Warming is population. More people means more food, more garbage, and more transportation. It could be causes of methane emitting because there will be more burning of fuels. Increasing agriculture is also one of causes of methane. If you are in a barn filled with animals such as cows, you will smell something terrible and dizzy. Manure from animals has a specific smell. It's the methane. It helps to increase air pollution with Carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide is the main culprit of Global warming exactly. CO2 destroys the Ozone ray. Therefore, the more we exhaust CO2, the more sunshine will reach to the Earth during the same time. CO2 occurred by human or naturally make a widespread rayer over the Earth. This strange rayer interferes sunshine not to be released out of the atmosphere. If we leave this critical situation alone, all glacier will melt away in a short time. Almost all countries will lose there territory a lot and some island countries might sink into the sea. Some kinds of species who has week immunity to the changes will have disappeared in this world.
There are some solutions for avoiding Global Warming. Using energy more efficiently and moving to renewable energy such as wind, solar, and bio energy would significantly reduce our emissions. Renewable energy doesn't release harmful gases. I'm sure that increasing the share of our electricity generated from renewable resources could be one of the most effective ways to reduce emissions.
If we ride a bicycle instead of a car, it will help to decrease air pollution. Nowadays some country's governments encourage their citizen to ride a bicycle. It's not only good for preventing Global Warming but also health. And we have to develop a new technology which can help to operate machine by natural resources in automobile industry.
And we can offer a class teaching about Global Warming in every regular school education. Systematic educational service is one of the most important things. It could be a good solution to stop the Global Warming fundamentally.
We have to make Global Warming stopped, which is the most urgent problem facing. If we don't, our next generation will be suffered.
For a long time, we have developed a lot of things in many parts of diverse industry and have been trying to make our lives more convenient. On this way, the environment have been destroyed at the same time. Especially developing in some kinds of industry is caused for air pollution. And it plays a decisive role as momentum to promote Global Warming without doubt.
Another major man-made cause of Global Warming is population. More people means more food, more garbage, and more transportation. It could be causes of methane emitting because there will be more burning of fuels. Increasing agriculture is also one of causes of methane. If you are in a barn filled with animals such as cows, you will smell something terrible and dizzy. Manure from animals has a specific smell. It's the methane. It helps to increase air pollution with Carbon dioxide.

My future(working at a German company)
I major in German at my university and someday aspire to work at a German company like BMW, Adidas, and Bayer. I think working at a German company can give me good work experience. My ultimate goal is being in upper management with a German company, which I believe, helps the economic growth of Korea and Germany. If I am in upper management, any situation could not compare or be better than this. When I imagine working at a German company, I am excited and here are some reasons that I feel I must work at a German company.
First of all, I have studied the German language for 5 years. When I was a high school student, German was my major and my first foreign language (not English). When the other schools' students studied to enter university, I had to study German very hard. If I give up studying German, it will mean I wasted time and I would definitely have regrets.
Next, learning German is worthwhile because nowadays, there are few Korean people who study German . It means I more than likely don't have to compete with that many Korean students who want to work at a German company (on the other hand, German is not popular in Korea.) Everybody knows learning English is very common and there are lots of people who can speak English very well.
Third, I like Germany. Have you ever been to Germany? We can see picturesque landscapes everywhere in Germany. When I was in Germany, I was thinking I was in a fairy tale world; it made me really want to live in Germany.
Fourth, one can earn more working at foreign companies in Korea than working at Korean companies (of course, there are some exceptions). Foreign companies in Korea offer better and more specific benefits to employees. For example, vacations, medical benefits, guarantee of free time, etc. If I am a talented employee, my company will send me to Germany to work.
Last, globalization is becoming more important and will offer lots of opportunities; it will also make the world seem smaller. It may also mean we have to participate in globalizing so, I will do my part and work at a German company; I don't want, as the saying goes, "..to be a frog in the well..".
But I must mull many things beforehand. First, I will have to grapple to get a job. To get a job, I must be good at German. What a stressful brunt! And added to this, there are lots of Korean students who can speak German very well and make it seem ambient, at my university (of course, studying English and Chinese are more competitive in Korea).
In actuality, my German language abilities are in a logjam now. If I don't continue studying German, all that I have learned will retrogress. In saying all this, I hope I will be more adroit to linguistics as I believe I can do what I want.

My future plan about family
Anybody used to think about their future. Sometimes, I also used to mull about my future family. Thinking about it is very interesting and fluttering.
I want to get marry after I get a reliable job. If I have no enough ability for my life likes money and mature thoughts, I will not get marry. It means that marriage is not a game and trifle. I want to have husband who is sincere and mild. Even though he can not make a lot of money, I wish he is a man of passion about his job and everything. Sometimes, we might make some troubles. Also, we could grapple each other. Even though this situation makes us unpleasant and disappointed, we will brunt and endure with our love. I will make an effort for my family and love. I will never be scornful my husband. I would like to be lovable wife,but sometimes I will be a friend of him. I think that love is doing together, so I will always respect my husband for our good relationship. If we esteem each other, our marriage will be successful.
I also want to have two babies about 32 years. One of them is a son and a daughter. When I was young, I used to consider my future children's names. I like sound 's', so I want to give to my children name which include 's' sound like my name. It is not a pipe dream. I will name these style to my children someday. I am going to teach to my children English and Korean Whenever I have a time. Moreover, I will give many chances and experiences likes travel and study to them as soon as possible. I do not want that my children think me uncomfortable and hard. I will be a character like a friend of them. we will talk about everything likes friend,love,study and future whenever they and I want to talk each other or we have a time.
Around my children get a job, my husband and I will retire our job and we will go travel in the world. In addition, I will try to study or learn something new with my husband. I will never give up that I want to learn and do. If I have a chance, and we are in good condition, I want to get another job with my husband. we will manage a beautiful restaurant or coffee shop. I will never be tardy in my life. It is just hope now, but I will try to come true my dream.

My future house
When I was in high school, I hoped to be successful architect so I studied math and drawing. Now I gave up the dream but I want to make my future house by myself. If I make my house, I will choose the location which will be ambient beautiful river and in front of mountain. Perhaps my future wife also agree that location however she will disagree my design because my design is semicircle. It looks like korea traditional grave so if she disagree my design, I will grapple my plan even though I love her too much. The wall of outsidewill be made of bulletproof glass and the frame will be made of synthesis iron.
MY FUTURE PLAN - JEESUB
My future plan
First, I will get a nice job to make lots of money. I hope so, because all of my friends already started to make money, but I'm still university student. I'm gotta graduate from university next August. It's too late time to graduate.Therefore i will try to get a job as soon as i graduate.
I wanna make a big money, so i will work for insurance company, or one of the largest banks in Korea. If I work for financial company, I can make more money than any other employees who work for another company in Korea. And my major in my university is economics. That's why i wanna work for companies which is related to finance.
Second, I will marry before thirty years old. It's time to think about my marriage! I wanna make a good family. My one of the wish in my life is being friendly with my son and daughter, and hanging out with them harmoniously.
I will be able to do. I'm sure!
Third, after i make lots of money, I will invest to real estates. In Korea, this makes easy to make big money as far as i know. I wanna be famous as Donald Trump! But i will donate lots of things if I can make such a big money.
No matter how difficult success is in my future plans, I'm going to do my best.
My valuable instruction in life is that " If I do my best seriously, fortune will come up to me."
I usually try to follow my life instruction, but I sometimes forgot following this..
The goal of my future plan is to live happily in my life. So, if i find how to get happy life in another way, I can change my plan.
Anyway all of my environment is very valuable for me now. I will value all around me. And I will do my best to be happy!

My Professional and Personal Plans for the Future
I have been working in a Cosmetic Company called Natura. I work in the Research & Development Department. Next month I am going back to Brazil and to my work. I love creating new products and the company has a lovely ambient.
In the last six months I have been mulling about what I am going to do to reach my objective, and my objective is being a very successful manager. In fact, my plans have already started when I came to Toronto, because to be a good manager in Brazil you have to know how to speak and write not either Portuguese but English too, and that is what I am doing here. Then, you have to study a lot, and that is what I am going to do next year. I intend to do another MBA based on marketing to learn how to create new products and trends. May be I will create a shampoo without water or a powder toilet soap.
My pipedream is to make the world know the good cosmetic products we are developing in Brazil.

My Future Plan
I am going to tell you what my family will be in the future. Actually, to have my own family is not easy. I have to pay tuition and feed for my children. But I will have my lovely family.
I was born in 1988 in a normal nuclear family. It was like not so rich but not poor. My parents have loved me since I was born. Sometime they scolded me very hardly, but there was a full of love even though a violent situation. I felt a very strong tie in there. I will educate my children as I was done.
At first to have my own family, I have to meet the true love. My type is a woman who is very thoughtful and loves me and a child very much (this is very important.). I’d prefer a beautiful woman to an ugly woman, but it is not very important in a marriage.
Secondly, I will have 2 children. I have a younger sister. I usually took care of her in a childhood. If parents were very busy, it would make sense. And also, only a child would be likely to feel loneliness. I won’t have 3 or more children because it would be hard to make them go to school in the point of money. As a matter of fact, I want to, but real world is very punctual.
If I had a boy, I would like him to play a sport. No matter what sport would he do, I will cheer him up and support him because I want him to enjoy playing sports as I enjoyed playing sports very much. If I had a girl, I would like her to play an instrument. Anyway I would want my children to have whatever a special ability or skill. It will help them live life easier in a difficult situation.
I will buy a house not an apartment and am going to have a dog. I am going to have a Dachshund. This kind of dog is very small and cute. The dog is going to be up to 35cm.

Future Plans (by Ana)
To think about what I'm going to do after I get my degree is driving me crazy. I was mulling these days about my career as a lawyer or if I have to follow my pipe dream, that is to be an actress someday. I really act adroitly, but my parents think about it just as a hobby and not as a career, especially because the salary doesn't commensurate with all the work that I'm going to have.
In december I'm going to go back to Brazil and to think about this decision is making me a little bit restive and I can feel my stomach churning. I'm going to finish my course, but I also will apply to a drama club and get my english course degree if I have time enough. Probably I will protract my period in the University to study hard to do the final exam to be a judge and after I might be able to join any

My Future..
I have two months and a half to improve my English, after that I am going to go back at home and start to look for a job. I have been mull about that because sometimes is not easy find a good job. I would like find a job like a programmer because I am adroit programming.
Last summer I took a course for teach children and the next year, in January, I am going to start to do my practices. I am going to go to Kinder Garden, Elementary School and High School and probe what I have been learning. And finally the next summer I am going to take the second part of the course. After that I will be able to teach children.

I will start to build my house next year, I have been saving money for that. I am going to start with a part of the house, just the necesary rooms. But I am going to build it bigger enough to live in a comfortable way. The next year I am going to work hard because I want a lovely house.

To be a Talented Annoncer!
I had been wanting to be an announcer because I was interested in broadcasting and announcing something new with my voice during my whole student life. I have been working for a broadcasting institute in my university until now. These days I'm mulling about getting a job.
After finishing my ESL course at PGIC, I'm going to go back to Korea and find an internship program related with broadcasting system. It could be extended to study in Canada but if I feel lack of budget for foreign life, I will immediately quit my studying abroad.
Actually I have worked for MBC that is one of the most famous broadcasting company in Korea as a part time worker some years ago. It was a great experience to build some basises. But I still have a long way to go. I'm going to find some information to get opportunities which can help me to improve my abilities in many ways. I think that I will be able to get a lot of chances from my seniors worked together in university. I will have finished preparing for getting employ in December next year.
I'm building my career while I'm working at news anchor. I'm also going to study communication at the same time. If i can enter the graduate school, I will learn a field of communication as much as possible. Around 50 years old, after resign my job, I might be either teaching students in university or running a broadcasting academy. When my children will have grown up, I'm going to immigrate to Canada. And I will live the rest of my life in Vancouver with travels.

About my future planes
I am here to get a better chance when I am looking for my job in the future. That is because getting a job is very difficult in Korea today so the person who wants to get a job has to be ready to grapple with a lot of competitors. It means that she/he has to be perfect as much as possible.
After I finish studying English in PGIC, I am going to take another course. I am mulling over which one is a more practical decision for me between Translate course and International Economics course. Because I am preparing for working in the trading field, I have to be adroit at both of them. After taking one of these course, I am going to develop my career and travel for getting many experience and just relaxation.
I will go back to Korea next July or October and I am going to go back to my university. By the time I will go back to my university, I am planing to join English Camp in Korea as a volunteer. It has been like my pipe dream because I was so shy and had no confidence with my English. I thought It would be a good chance to develop my leadership and career. And then I am going to have got some certifications which I am trying to now.
After I return to my university, I am going to try to manage my grades. I should have been more ambitious when I was in university. I would be very laggard and not passionate at all on my study. When I become 27, I will have already graduated and I will be working in a trading company. And I will be thinking about buying a car or house. It sounds sweet! I hope I could make it all these plans !!

A Walk to Remember (by Ana)
"A Walk to Remember" is a love story about two teenagers who had met in the high school. Jamie Sullivan is a Priest's daughter and she had been spending all her time doing things for her community. Landon Carter is one of the most popular person in the school and he used to think that his friends and himself were better than everyone in Beaufort High.
In a terrible night, Landon and his friends had tried to make a joke with a new student who wanted to be a popular person too. They made the guy jump into a small river from the high place in a factory and the student hit his head. The police caught just Landon and he had to do a lot of communitary service during the time that the other guy was in the hospital to pay for what he had done.
Jamie Sullivan (Mandie Monroe) had been trying to help him a lot of times, but he didn't want to let people know that she was talking to him. However, Landon felt in love for Jamie and he had done everything to make her happy, included to have a fight with all his friends that were trying to make fun of her all the time. The best scene of the movie happens when Landon had made her wishes come true by the time she was a little bit depressed.
One day, before they came back to their houses, Jamie had told Landon that she had leucemia and she was going to die in few days. Landon was very sad, but he had tried to do his best to make her feel alive. They got married and she died. She had said in her last days that he was her angel. But, we can say that she was his angel too because she really made Landon a better person. He started to study medicine and he apologized with the guy in the hospital.
