About my Job Interview and Panel Discussion

Job Interview

 I applied for customer service position on the interview. Actually, I got many qustions that I hadn't imagined...haha.. Those are kinds of which say nagetive situations. I know I shouldn't say something really nagetivly on interview, but questions led me to say it. So I tried to turn it into being positive. Also, I tried to keep smile, like pretending that I am not embarrassed. Fortunatly, Jeff, an interviewer, said that I did well done and it was good that I had been keeping smile. Appreciated his comments.
 After the interview, I realized that job interview requires much more preparation that I thought. Although I know what I can answer the questions, on interview, I could arrange what I think of it quickly. So I think I just rambled.
 However, it was really good opportunity to experience job interview. Through the experience, I will prepare my real jon interview in the future.


Panel Discussion

 My team topic was 'Marriage'. We discussed that whether marriage is really necessary and how people in Korea changed the thought of marriage. Only one of our team member, Jihun, said that marriage is necessary in his opinion, Actually, if I find a partner that I really really really love, I would like to get married. However, I don't think it is necessary. Just except for the case of that you could find your lover.
 Nowaday, the thoughts about marriage in Korea are not really positive, due to money and condition and so on. Finding a partner to get married is determined up to the conditions of the candidates. That fact is really sad...
 I think marriage has many adventages and also many disadventages. Some people think the adventages are more than the disadventages, and some people think the disadventages are more. It is just the difference of the people's view. Marriage is a choice of ourselves.

 I enjoyed the discussion a lot. I could know how other poeple think of the same topic differently. It was very interesting. All opinions that we said were fresh and respectable. It was a final exam that I have really enjoyed the most. :)





Hope all of you enjoy your summer vacation and see you next semester~~

Thank you very much.

It’s not the greatest country in the world. That’s my answer…

Sharon, the NEA is a loser. Yeah, it accounts for a penny out of our paycheck, but he gets to hit you with it anytime he wants.

 It doesn’t cost money, it costs votes. It costs airtime / and column inches.

 You know why people don’t like liberals? Because they lose. /  If liberals are so fucking smart, how come they lose so goddamn always?

 And with a straight face, / you’re gonna tell students that America is so star-spangled awesome that we’re the only ones in the world who have freedom?

 Canada has freedom. Japan / has freedom. The UK, France, Italy, Germany, Spain, Australia, Belgium / has freedom!

So, 207 sovereign states in the world, like / 180 of them have freedom.

And yeah, you… sorority girl. /

 Just in case you accidentally wander into a voting booth one day, there’s some things you should know.

 One of them is: /  there’s absolutely no evidence to support the statement that we’re the greatest country in the world.

We’re 7th in literacy, 27th in math, 22nd in science, 49th in life expectancy, 178th in infant mortality, 3rd in median household income, number 4 in labor force and number 4 in exports.

 We lead the world /  in only three categories: number of incarcerated citizens per capita, / number of adults who believe angels are real / and defense spending, / 

where we spend more than the next 26 countries combined, / 25 of whom / are allies.

 Now, none of this is the fault of a 20-year-old college student,

but you, nonetheless, are, without a doubt, a member of the worst / period / generation / period / ever period,

so when you ask what makes us the greatest country in the world, / I don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about!

Discusstion about Marriage in Korea

Do you think marriage is necessary?
Actually, I partly agree with it, because to get married means that you have your partner who will be beside you forever (perhaps forever..).
So, I am really happy to hear my friends or people around me get married.
But I don't think it is necessary, because some people may think they don't want to.
People in Korea usually used to get married to get children in the past.
Marriage was necessary in Korea. But now no everyone in Korea gets married if they don't want to.

There are some reasons why I think marriage is not necessary.
Why do you think people get married? Because they fell in love with someone, and because they think they need to get married when they get a job and are ready to have babies. I know having a family is the way that you don't feel lonely when you get old. But some people feel still lonely after getting married. So, after all, some are divorced even if they have babies. Then, the babies usually go to an orphanage, because of their parents' irresponsibility.
Next, I would like to ask people who think marriage is necessary about 'have you thought that you are just following the way that is already settled by the society?'. Everyone may think we are going to get married when you are around 28~35 years old. What if you don't have a partner at the moment, or you don't like your boy or girl friend? Then, probably most of people choose blind date for marriage. For me, I can't decide my life partner only for the short time through the blind date that meet someone I don't know at all.

These are just my opinions. In conclusion, I don't think marriage is necessary.
I expect this Thursday when we are going to duscuss about this topic.

Thank you very much. :)

Modern family script 01 - 03 (Study Group)

Time -  00:00~03:09



Honey, I thought you were gonna take out the garbage.
Getting it.
I was gonna get it.
- Dylan.
- Hey, Mrs.
Dunphy.
- I'm just waiting for Haley.
- Did you ring the bell? I texted.
She said she'd be down in just a minute.
- Oh, great.
Tell her I said hi.
- I will.
D-Money! Chillin' with Dylan the villain.
- "D" to the "y" to the - Hey, Mr.
Dunphy.
Come on in.
You're just in time to catch the end of the game.
I'm not really a baseball guy.
- Haley says hi.
- I was just being facetious.
I'll catch you up.
Sit it.
Park it.
Come on, I don't bite.
Kidding.
I'm kidding.
Okay, see that guy? He's the tying run.
Interesting story about him.
He's been stuck on second base forever, and I'm pretty sure he's gonna try and steal third, which is justa terrible, terrible idea.
How are you and Haley doing?


 I wish I could stay home with you and fly toy airplanes.
These aren't toy airplanes.
These are models, and they're very complicated.
You want to fly one of these, you got to be familiar with airfoil, drag, lift, and thrust, and these are all principles of aerodynamics.
The box says, "12 and up.
" What?! You can fly planes with Jay next time.
Today you have to spend time with Luke.
- Why? - His mother invited you, so you go.
Family needs to be close, right, Jay? I'm pretty sure this is a typo.
Men need their hobbies.
Manny's father had many hobbies, like hiking in the desert, that kind of skiing that they drop you from the - How do you say in english? The - Helicopter.
Once, on a dare, he even boxed with an alligator.
Wrestle.
You wrestle.
- You can't box with alligators.
- Are you sure? How would they get the gloves on those little claws? Aren't they like tiny, little hands? - I forgot what we were talking about.
- Anyways, hobbies are important for the men, whether you're risking your life or flying little planes from a safe distance.


 Wait, what are you doing? - We're gonna buy some diapers.
It'll just take a second.
This is Costco.
Yeah, which is where we buy diapers.
Since when? Do you rember when we adopted that baby a few months back? Since then.
Mitchell is a snob.
No, I'm discerning.
Official slogan for snobs.
When we first met, he wouldn't even look at me because I was a hick from the farm in Missouri and he's a big city mouse.
Who says "city mouse"? Country mice.




I was just being facetious.
1. not meant to be taken seriously or literally

2. amusing; humorous.

3. lacking serious intent; concerned with something nonessential, amusing, or frivolous:

He's the tying run.


on a dare 감히, 용감하게!



snob
1. a person who imitates, cultivates, or slavishly admires social superiors and is condescending or overbearing to others.

2. a person who believes himself or herself an expert or connoisseur in a given field and is condescending toward or disdainful of those who hold other opinions or have different tastes regarding this field:

discerning
showing good or outstanding judgment and understanding

hick
an unsophisticated, boorish, and provincial person; rube.

city mouse



There are some expressions that I don't know and couldn't find the meaning.
If you know the meanings of those expressions that I didn't write the definitions, please let me know it, I would be appreciated.

Peep Show 06x05 The Party

- Hey, Mark! - Hi, Dobs.
I just happened to be passing and I remember you were saying that if I happened to be passing Two buses here, three buses home - five convenient buses.
Great to see you, you big freak! Cool place.
Wonder who's tried to jump her.
He'll have had a pop.
I'm just temping, but it's fun.
Look, I couldn't help noticing that there's a Cineworld on the high street - Oh, yeah? and I've got all these credits left on my Mega-pass, and I'm not up to much, so Shit.
I'm going out tonight for a big one with the guys.
I'm a guyl lt'd be great to do a mega gulp and movie soon, though.
I'd hate us to stop being friends.
Yeah friends.
Yeah, we're friends, right? Like, if I was having a party, I'd invite you, and if you were having a party, you'd invite me.
- Well, yeah.
- Exactly.
- Dobby - Yeah? - I'm having a party.
- What? Yeah, that's the other thing I came tell you, actually, that I'm having a party.
Would you like to come? - Um yeah.
- Trapped in a web of her own makingl Oh, God.
I can't believe I'm having a party.
I am so proud of you.
There was everyone thinking you were just this fusty, sweater-wearing, spirit-crushing, no-fly zone with a ten-foot carrot up his arse.
Yeah, obviously it is only a tactical party.
I'm only having a party in order to eventually get sex.
This is the only reason anyone in recorded history has had a party, Mark.
Plus, it's great for me - perfect way to see Elena! - You haven't given up on Elena? - Nah.
She's just playing it cool.
And I just need to do the same.
It's Snoopy in shades versus the Fonz in a fridge.
Hi, it's Elena.
Please leave a message.
Oh, hi, Elena.
Yeah, Jez here.
Just to say, you know, me and Mark are partying hard this Saturday.
I've invited everyone else and then I thought of you.
So there's going to be some cats from the music biz, a few cats from film and new media.
You know, a whole crowd of cool cats and crazy chicks.
Chicks with dicks, chicks without dicks, guys with dicks.
Maybe see you up here, maybe not.
Bye-bye.
Bye.
Bye-bye.
Bye.
Oh, great.
Oh, shit.
What is it? Creamy Elephant repayments? It's from Sophie's father.
His solicitor.
Arrangements for child maintenance, visitation Oh, God.
Wow.
That's pretty real.
I don't want to stickle or negotiate.
Wouldn't feel right.
Yeah, just sign that shit up.
That's what I'd say.
Sign and recline - that's my motto.
Yeah.
Am I really going to take his advice? The finest legal mind of his generation?

 

 

Only three hours to go.
Three lasagnes to nail.
Need another? Chicken lasagne? I've seen it on menus, but only at those pretend pubs at the airport.
Hey, man! - What the hell are you doing? - I'm gaffer-taping bin bags to the floor.
Right.
Why? To protect the carpet from all the various fluids.
But it looks like a crack den.
I know! Why the hell have you bought so much food? Because I'm making four different kinds of lasagne.
Nobody cares about the food at parties, Mark.
They just want to get pissed and go ape.
"Go ape"? I don't want people "going ape", Jeremy.
Because there's a missing word, isn't there? Ape shit.
Anyway, I haven't got time for this.
I need you to start assembling an enormous salad.
Salad?! Oh, "Did you have a good time at the party?" "Yeah, well, I got pissed and stoned "and this girl took her top off and danced on the sofa like in Trading Places, "but there was no baby leaf salad, so overall, big disappointment.
" Nobody is dancing on the Creamy Elephant.
I'll do the salad in a minute.
Right now I'm setting up puke points.
Puke points?! There are seven puke points.
The toilet is puke point HQ, obviously.
And then I've gone round emptying the bins and distributing bags as secondary puke points.
Oh, God.
This could be a disaster.
I want a night of edgy banter and tipsy indiscretions.
He wants us all lying around in our pants, flinging shit at each other.
MARK: Ugh, Sophie.
Not again.
I'm not having a baby - I'm having a partyl So what do you reckon? How many buttons? Cos, like, one is old-school, Blair on holiday.
Two is the new one.
So I was thinking maybe three, but then if I'm doing three, maybe four? I'm thinking of doing a reserve chicken.
What do you think? Five lasagnes, Mark? Lasagnes can't save you.
You are still going to have to talk to people, you know.
- (DOORBELL RINGS) - What if it's Dobby? Don't snaffle any of the mozzarella.
My ratios are right on the edge.
Gerard.

That is not the whole script, just from the first to somewhere.. haha

My way how I study English with drama

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-ZN1woiaZ52MTFJcmR3djlqdVU&authuser=0


I have studied with the drama, Gossip girl.
I watched it first without subtittle and then with subtittle in English.
I wrote down some words I don't know and studied those.
I could understand the words and memorize easier then when I just studied, because I could remind the situation when I see the words.
The more watch the video, the better. :)

Hopefully, this way is helpful to others as well as me.
