Today I am going to introduce my special experience with seven photos. Last year I participated in English play competition. I had and audition and got a chance to act as a bad girl bullying one boy. I practiced for three months for local competition, and we won! So our team grabbed a chance to participate in the national competition. Bur for now, I am just going to tell you about the processes we've prepared for the national competition. Now let me start!!@@@
First Meeting
This is our team's profile picture. We took pictures of each in the studio and the group picture, we took at the out side. Everyone has a big smile and their eyes are full of expectation of fun practices. We were excited to meet our acting teacher and others who came to help us. During the photo shooting, the photographer asked us to shout "Fighting". So we did. But after we shouted, I heard others murmuring " What are they doing?", " Who are they?". I was so embarrassed.
Practice time D-4
Now lets move to our practice room. Isn't it big?? You can see the girl, which is me. She looks very stressed and annoyed. A boy in the middle he looks afraid and scared. Lastly, the boy on the right, he also looks very frustrated and disappointed. He is shouting really loudly to the boy in the middle. And I also see the acting teacher looking us act with two big eyes open. Sometime I hear her shouting at us. We all freeze that time.
Dinner Time
Yum~ It's dinner time!! Because we practiced till about 12:00 p.m, we always had dinner together. I smell something tasty, dainty and delicious. My noise is dancing. And I also see colorful gimbab! Because I was very hungry, I saw the gimbab shining brightly. Even though it was normal gimbab, it tasted like eating a steak.
After practice
After the practice ends. We all become a dead boy. Tired, sleepy, and want to lay down in a downy bed.But instead we had to sit on the inconvenient subway chair or of there are so many people, we had to stand... I think the day in this picture, we was very lucky to have a seat. I hear noisy boisterously. I smell disgusting offensive odor from a boy next to me because of his sweat-stained shirt.
We did it!
I can't believe!! We won the national competition! I heard our team called loudly through the whole big hall. I also heard people cheering. When we went up to to receive a trophy, all the sounds I heard were people clapping, full of happiness. I also cried because I imagined the time we've practiced for a long time. Honorable to our teacher and others who helped us. I shook hand with some famous director. And I felt my heart throb. It's hard to put my feelings in words.
First meet after the competition
This is our first meeting after the competition. Everyone looks comfortable, with no pressure of the competition. The place we had dinner was full of latin songs. It made me exited. The foods on the table look very delicious. I smell spicy curry. And when I had a bite, my mouth was burning!!
Surprise present for our teacher
After the meal, we gave the teacher a gift which we prepared with our prize money. We gave colorful gummy jelly, necktie with silly patters etc.. The reason why I am not there is because I was taking a picture for them. However teacher in this picture looks really proud. I can see his
white shining teeth which means he is very satisfied. As I took this picture I really felt we was all one family. I hear all of us laughing and saying to each other "Thank You for everything"
Practicing everyday more than eight hours a day made me so tired. But I enjoyed myself acting like another girl. I will not forget the taste of gimbab which we ate together and the time when our name was called. 2013 was the most memorable year in my life.
Hello everyone! Today I'm going to post my second page with the movies review which I saw last Sunday. I saw the movie 'Mao's Last Dancer'. First of all, let me tell you the information of this movie. This movie is a true story. It was first showed at 2009, October 1st at Australia. To tell you about the cast, which most of you will be interest. Chi Cao is acting for the main character Li Cunxin. Bruce Greenwood as Ben Stevenson, the man who discovers Li Cunxin and make him a star. And Amanda Schull as Elizabeth, the girl friend of Li Cunxin. To give the rating of this movie, for me it is five stars out of five. You will understand why I gave five stars to this movie after you read my movie review.
Li's dad talking to his son to do the best
To tell you a plot of this movie, it's mainly about a poor boy becoming a star of ballet. The main character of this movie, the Li Cunxin( from now I'll call him 'Li' ), was born at Sinchon the neighborhood of China Chindao. He is born between the poor parents, the sixth son of the seven sons. At the age of 11, Li is selected by the Comunist Party to study ballet at the Madame Mao's Dance Academy in Beijing. The day before Li leaves the home to go to the Beijing, his father tell him a story about a frog in the well. He told Li to jump over the well and see the world widely. And to me, the story about a frog in the well meant don't be conceited. There are more than millions things that we don't know about the world. Don't be too proud of yourself even though you are a genius. We could be the frogs inside the well.
Teacher Chan with Li
At first when he learned the ballet, he was inferior student because he was so weak. But after he meets the teacher Chan. He inspired him to be the star in the future. Before he meets teacher Chan, he was dancing with no reasons, there was non of volition. But because of him he change his mind and starts to train to reach his goal. I also have a teacher who inspired me to be aggressive and active like today. Before I met him I was a quiet girl sitting at the back of the classroom, reading books. But he taught me the instrument, and be the member of the orchestra which he made. Through the music I've changed. He is the most memorable teacher.
Years later, during the course of a groundbreaking cultural visit to China, American ballet director Ben Stevenson, impressed by Li's standout talent, seeks him as an exchange student at his Houston Ballet. And after he came to the USA as the exchange student, by chance he gets to perform a Don Quixote as the main ballerino and make audience including vice president of USA surprised. Meanwhile he secretly dates and falls in love with the dancer Elzabeth Mackey. When the China's government asks Li to return to his contry, he marries Liz(Elizabeth Mackey) and defects to USA.
Li with Liz
I'm really disappointed to the Li's decision. He is so selfish. It's true that, he can demonstrate his abilities in USA. But he did not think about his family in China. Pursuing his own success, his parents and brother could be in life-threatening danger.
No matter how hard Li trained to be the best, no matter how he have waited to get a chance like this. If Li's parents did not support him, or help him to bear the processes of hardships. He might gave up.
But five years later Li has a great surprise during his perfomance.
Now did you understand why I gave 5 stars to this movie??
I really reall recommend you to watch this movie.
There are so many scenes that I can't put into words.
So down here I'll post the trailer.
Hello everyone? I'm Yookyung Ku from Seoul Sinseo middle school. Today I'm going to introduce myself by using only three words. Can you imagine it? Okay then now listen carefully how I introduce myself with '3', 'captain' and 'red'. If you can, try to guess what does those three words signify.
Now did you get the picture of me? As I said my hobbies and the things I like, you can say that I am very energetic and dynamic. Playing soccer and skating can seem a little bit fierce for girls. And sometimes I act hastily and a little bit carelessly. But as I said that I still miss my friends in China, I value friend ship and have warm heart. This is all about me!
