Hello ghost - The good movie!

Last week, my friend introduced me Hello Ghost, which is a Korean movie. I had never seen any Korean movie before because I thought that all of them are so long, boring and most scenes are crying, but Hello Ghost made me change my mind. The movie is about Sang Man, who is an orphan child. Because of lacking of caring from other people, Sang Man wanted to kill himself. Luckily, he could not die as his wish, but he can see the ghosts after unsuccessful commit suicide. Unfortunately, he is followed by 4 ghosts, who want to take his body to do anything they want. The ghosts do some things that Sang Man never did before such as smoking, looking the bottom of women, eating so much and crying all time. Sang Man felt so annoy at them, so he tries to carry out their wish to dismiss them. At last, he remembered that they are his family. They are his grandfather, father, mother, and older brother, who died for a long time when he was a child in an accident, but they always stay by side him and care about him. This movie took me a lot of tears, and it is really a meaning movie for me.

My hometown

I was born in Ho Chi Minh city which is the biggest and the most modern city in Viet Nam. Unlike Seattle, my hometown just has 2 seasons that are dry season and rainy season. The dry season is from May to November, and the rainy season is from December to April. The average temperature is from 25 to 27 C degree, so it's so hot. Vice versa with people who live in Seattle always wear coats when they go outside because of cold weather, people who live in Ho Chi Minh city always wear coats to keep away from the sunshine. My hometown is not too large but it has a huge population. Because of it is a biggest industrial center in Viet Nam, so it attracts a lot of people who want to find a job from other areas. Therefore, it becomes overpopulation and overpolluted. Although my hometown is the biggest city in Viet Nam, the income of people who are living there is not too high, so the essence transportation is motorcycle.

My favorite place in Seattle

Seattle, where I'm living now is a big city, and there are many interesting places here. However, the place that I love the most is Public Library. I don't like other girls who love shopping, making up, or hanging out with friends, my hobby is reading comic books. In my country, I must pay more money to buy or rent comic books, but the quality of the books is not good, and they are usually deleted some scence in. On the contrary, I can borrow comic books from public libraries in Seattle without money. In addition, the books are in English, so I can improve my vocabularies and grammars, too. That's good for my studying. In short, I usually go to public libraries 1 time a week to borrow books to read, and sometimes I come there with my friend, Jessie. It became a thing that help me relax after study hardly.

The first time I got lost in Seattle

That happened in the first time I went to school. After class, I got the bus 128 to go home. However, I did not recognize that there were 2 bus 128, so I got the wrong bus, and I got lost. It was scary, for I did not where I was. Moreover, I had no phone to call for my aunt. I was so confused and thought about what should I do. After getting the calm back, I decided to ask a help from a person, but I was still embarrassed, for I did not know how to talk with them, so I had to wait for a long time until I felt so hungry, and it was quiet dark. Finally, I asked a America for me borrowed cell phone to call for my aunt. Luckily, he was a friendly person, so I felt better. After 30 minutes, my aunt picked up me. That was a scary experience, but it was not the final time I got lost. Until now, sometimes I still get the wrong bus and get lost, but now I am acquainted with  the streets in Seattle, so I can easy go back my home by myself.

My new friend

From the day I came here, I had some new friends, who are from different cultures. One of them are Jessie, who is a Chinese girl. Jessie is tall, so she said she wants to become a model. Besides that, she also thinks she should diet because she is fat. However, I don't think so. Although Jessie is a little fat, she is still cute. Her skin is light and vital. However, the most attractive thing in Jessie is her plump face, it makes me feel friendly with her. She is not only a cute friend, but she is also a good friend to me. She always helps me when I need a help. Although we are not from the same country, but we always talk together. In short, I feel so lucky because she is my friend.

My normal weekend

I have been in Seattle for nearly 4 months, and my life has had some changes. However, my weekend is still like before. I wake up on 8.am and go to the church to teach children about Catholic. Then I go home and play games or watch cartoons. Sometimes, I help my aunt cook dinner, or my family will eat out in a restaurant. In short, maybe you can feel my weekend is so boring, but it's the time for me to relax, and I feel comfortable with it :)

Valentine's Day

I think Valentine's Day is a significant day. In that day, you can show your love to people who you love. That is a difficult thing in busy life today. Almost people think Valentine's Day is an expensive holiday, but I think it's not. If you can make gifts by your self, it will be cheaper and has more meaning. In fact, on Valentine's Day, I love making chocolates by myself. Maybe it's awful, but my family is happy when they get it. In conclusion, I love Valentine's Day not because I have a boy friend, but I can show my love to my parent and my best friends who always help me in my life.

My country's writing

My country's writing is like the English's writing style. In the beginning, the writers usually introduce what will they talk about, and they will show their opinion in the body. Finally, they end their writings by restating the opening or a question. The topic of my country's writing is variety. When I was in primary school, I learned about depicting a thing. While I was studying secondary school, the topics concerned my feeling or thinking about the thing that happened to me. However, the topics that were given in high school were so boring. I had to write about a literary work that I had never been good, so I usually got the bad grade in my writing in class. In fact, I don't like write because I always feel tired and headache when I must write something. I don't know how to write shortly that still make other people understand all my ideas. About the English's writing style, I think it is so difficult because it requires the strong grammars and the variety in vocabularies. In short, to write a good essay or paragraph, I think it is up to the topic that is interesting or boring to the writer.

Hi, I'm Khanh!

Hi everybody,
My name is Khanh, and I'm from Ho Chi Minh city. I have been in Seattle for nearly 4 months. Now, I'm studying in SSCC. My hobbies are reading comic books, watching cartoons, playing online game and surfing on the internet. My parent hope I will become a business woman, but I prefer to study IT. However, I found that IT is very difficult for writting code, so maybe becoming a language teacher is better for me ^^. In short, I still have no exact idea about my future career.
