To My Teachers...

All of my classes in KGU are over one week ago

That is happiness thing, but also sad thing

because collge life is the one thing that I can not experience never ever

I think this last semester was the best semester for me

I do not have any friend in the class

I do not know any friend who I can help me

I only have the teacher who can help me

Of course, they were willing to help me

I should do my best by myself

So if have any question, I went to the office

Even though my question does not related to the class

I really appriciated about it now

To my teacher in Korean language class and Business english class

Both of them are form Korea

One the them can speak Japanes, but another can not

They are really kind

While I was taking their class in the semester, I was curious about Korean culture all the time

because I have some experiences with many Koreans

traveling, drinking, dancing, and Love Romance....

I know some cultures are similar with Japanese one

but I had lots of things that I can not understand what they think

about dating, relationship, friends, and history

I wanted to ask them about Korean culture

But I could not

Because I did not know which is taboo topic, and which is fine topic

and there was limitation between us to communicate because of our lack of English skills

After I came back to Japan, and took class with Korean teacher fortunately

I noticed I have opportunities to ask these questions to my teacher who can speak Japanese

I was so nervous when I asked if he has time to talk to me after the class

that was horrible

I felt nervousness like when I take the interview...

"Prof. Min. Do you have time to talk to me about Korean after the class?"

This sentence was so heavy for me at that time

"Yes, off course. "

This answer made me happy

"But could you wait for a while because I have to make other student take speaking test."

That is fine, and I was witing.....

I felt so long to wait even it was only 10 to 20 min

I was expected to visit his office and ask

But after his work

he suggested going to have coffe and talk there

yappie!!!!!

Then, I asked lots about Korea

"Do you hate Japanese?"

"Why Korean hate Japanese?"

"Is it related to history between Japan and Korea?"

"Why Korean likes Japanese stuff even though they think Japan is rival?"

"What did Korean learn about Japan in school?"

why, what, why, what??

I asked like horse kkk

Sorry about that :P

But everthing came from my experiences that I got in Iowa

Everything is really interesting for me

I Love Korean

I love Korean people

I love Korean food

That is why I asked

That is why I wanted to know

He already knew how I like Korea so much because of my machingan questions

and

he answered about them

"Korean do not hate Japanese, of course I am not."

"Some people might think Hate Japanese from bottom thier heart, but it is just by ethics"

"Most of people feel envy that Japanese is higher level than Korea, and Korean want to catch up with that of level all the time."

"Korean learn lots bad thngs what Japanese did when JPN controled Korea. For example, buring house, killing people. However, most of them are not true. Korean learn about them exaggeratedly."

"Why your friend said to you I hate JPN is from he might be really ethic person."

"how Korean couple is dating..."

......

......

......

We talked more than one hour

About Korean couple, Korean history, Japanses history........

That was good to know about them

and these made my mind clear

because I really wondered about it during my staying in IA

Then, we went out the cafeteria for heading to house and library

On the way to the gate, finally he asked me

"Why do not you date with Korean guy once?!"

What!?!?!?!

"You can know about Korean people more and more."

Yes, I know

"Actually, I had dated with Korean guy in IA."

lol

He was surprised

and he said

"OMG!! That is good. Try to find another chance!!"

lol

If I can...

Then, we said good bye

That was very very good opportunity to know about Korea

Even though I have never been to Korea

This time, I just had talked to the teacher in Korean language class

I should have talked to the teacher in Business English class

This is my faul..

But

I noticed

Korean is really kind and like to help

And

I noticed

I want to know about Korean more and more deeply

And

I noticed

I want to visit Korea

To my teachers

Thank you so much for helping me all the time

Peaceful

:)

Shake man !!

These days, I really enjoy my studying!!

I can not believe if it is before my studying abroad

Korean, Speech communication, and Business English

Especially business English is fantastic!!

I think this is highly valuable for my practicing english

like writing business letter and cover letter, and listening lectuer in english

it is close to my future

and my teacher is

i do not know how to explain

but really interesting person ever

he is from Korea

he has really very high education history

he is really proud of himself, his history

he always tries to do his best for students

and

he always tries to understand students mind

it is readable mind for me

so funny

once i can not forget is when he speak out his mind, worries

"Am I scarry you?"

"Because I can not speak Japanese?"

"My English is not understandable for you?"

"Is this class so difficult?"

"My assingment is hard for you?"

These things caught my mind

When I heard him, just I remembered what Marina said to us

"Japanese do not speak in the class because of shyness."

"should say something"

"speakloud"

"I will control you because I am teacher"

of course, you are not scarry us

of course, your english is so easy to understand

of course, this class is not difficult

of course, your assignment is not difficult

It's not from thier shyness

It's because just Japanese do not like studying

It's because just Japanese think native class is easy to get credit

It's because of thier problem

Not your falt

I think You can just control your class

I think You can do whatever you want

I think You can drop them

I do not think you should worry about that kind of thing

because it's carzy japanese educational system

arg

that's suck!!

But please

Do not hesitate to communicate with students

Please

I hope you will be all right soon

Best regard

With my dad

When I am with just my dad, we always talked about my future.

That means they seriously care about my future.

Even it will be long way to get a success

They always push me foward for letting my future come true.

Even it will cost a lot of money

They do not care if I get the job in 2010

Just they care if I get a perfect job for me

It means not to compromise on the small job

In Japan

In the US

In college

In company

It's all my life

and

I am thier child

They will do thier best for me

so

I will do my best for them

Even if it will be long way with a lot of money

I have such a sweet parents!!
