Photo Essay-The life and events in GLPS

The big events in GLPS winter camp are fantastic!


Kendo Class

Kendo class was an extra PE class for every one. Class 5-8 had a PE class, but class  5-6 had a Kendo Class, and class  7-8 had a Tae-Kwon-Do Class.
In this picture,class 5 to 6 are sitting down, listening to the instructions from the Kendo teacher. It's in the gym, because gym is very large, and good to run around.
Dance party
In the dance party, 12 teams including teachers performed a dance/ or a song. The first team was dancing in the song,'Crash' by B.A.P, which is in the picture. However, the last stage was the best! The last stage was made by Lee Hyun Seok PA, Jung Ha Byul PA, Ju Su Bin PA, Si Seong Un TA, and Kim Seung Jun TA. They were all very good at dancing. Especially Lee Hyun Seok PA is really good at dancing, and he was very serious during dancing. It was fantastic. After all stages, we had free dances. We jumped and danced like a crazy guy and had lots of fun. Some teachers, no almost all teacher danced a lot, below the stage, so we followed back of them and had fun.

Ski school
The ski school was in the ski resort, 'Welli Hilli'. It was about 25-30 minutes far away from KMLA. We had some ski lessons divided on levels. I wore the white vest which told them that I'm a student from GLPS, and told that I'm in a high level on skiing. Once we touched the snow, it was really cold, but it was really fun to play with it. Even we wore thick socks, our socks totally froze, so some of them went to the medical office. However, for the students who rode the ski had lots of fun learning ski with their new ski teachers and friends. 

Temporary class
The temporary class was the class we had for our interview test. My teacher was Lee Hyun Seok teacher at first. We were very nervous and also a little awkward, but he helped us to adapt quickly. When we went to the C-building to take the test, Hyun Seok  PA played and talked with us a lot, so we could feel comfortable. Before I started the interview, Hyun Seok PA asked, "Who is it?", "How does he look like?" kind of questions. He was very funny and friendly. However, the class changed after the interview and also the teachers, so we were a little sad. 
The first advisor time
At the firts advisor time, we met a teacher named, Andrew Gorski, just to say, Mr.Gorski. He was very funny. He wore a funny hat kind of thing as you can see in the picture. We played a game that one person in each team comes out and guess the word just hearing their team mates' explanation. It was confused sometimes when other teams were loud, but we tried to hear what our teammates are talking about, and tried the best to guess the word.

Pop Con contest
In this pop song contest, every class divided on elementary school, and middle school had a competition. This is a picture of class5, singing in the song, 'Good Time'. When we were singing and dancing, we could here the audience clapping and talking. We saw lots and lots of people looking at us. We were nervous but we had a good time, as the song, 'Good Time'

"FROZEN"-Movie review

"FROZEN"-Movie review

In Sunday, we saw a movie named, 'Frozen'.
The movie 'Frozen' is a fantasy movie with magics. It's a fantasy fiction and it is very interesting with the magic powers and the adventures. This movie was made on 2013, November, by Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee.

 In this movie, there are lots of characters coming out. The main characters are Elsa, Anna, Kristoff, Hans, and Olaf. The minor characters are Duke, Trolls, and Pabbie. Elsa is a girl who has a special but a dangerous magic power. When she was young, she once hurted her younger sister, Anna, so now she doesn't like to hurt people, and likes to be alone. Next, Anna is Elsa's only one sister. Anna doesn't give up on finding her sister, Elsa who ran away from Arandelle. She later gets to know what an act of true love is by Elsa. Kristoff is someone who Anna met and got help in the way on finding Elsa. He has a reindeer named Sven. At first he doesn't really like helping her, but as soon as he helps her, he tries her best to find Elsa with her. Hans is a prince from Southern Isles. He shares love with Anna at first, but actually it is a fake love. He plans to kill Elsa and Anna, but because of Anna he makes a failure on killing Elsa. Olaf is a snowman Elsa and Anna made when they were young. Because of Elsa's magic, Olaf got his own life even he was just a snowman. Olaf helps Anna a lot and leads her.
Duke is a kind of a grandfather, he likes Elsa at first, but as soon as Elsa makes Arendelle into a winter and gets to know about Elsa's magic power, he actually tries to make Elsa hurt and finds summer back for Arendelle. Next, the trolls are Kristoff's friends, love experts. They are sometimes very noisy and crazy but they really knows well about love. They really like to help Kristoff. The grandfather between trolls is Grand Pabbie. He cures young Anna, and also when she grow ups. He likes to be very medical.

 This movie, 'Frozen' is setted on the background on the Norway landcape, and is for 1hour 48minutes (108minutes), it's a quite long movie. There are some big events that happened in this movie. I'd like to tell you about the plots. At first, when Elsa and Anna was young...
One day it was snowing. Anna wanted to go build a snowman with Elsa, so she asked for her magic. When Elsa used her magic, she accidently hit Anna. When Anna went to the trolls, Pabbie said Anna got hurt in her head, not heart. Also he said he could cure her but he should take out Anna's memory. From that day, Elsa couldn't control her magic power, making ice everywhere. So she didn't want to hurt someone anymore, so she shut her door and kicked Anna out of her room. One day, King and the Queen traveled, but because of the storm in the sea, they died. Because the king and the queen died, the princess had to have a coronation to become a queen. 3 years later King and Queen died, they had a coronation ceremony. Finally Elsa came out in front of everybody. She wore blue gloves and tried not to use magic powers, but it wasn't easy. Anna came up in front of Elsa, asking for a permission on marrying with Prince Hans. Elsa said "No!" And Anna asked about the reason, and Elsa answered that it is because Anna does not know about true love, and Prince Hans is a man who she just met. Anna became furious and took off Elsa's gloves. So Elsa couldn't control her self and she used dangerous magic powers and made the kingdom, Arendelle to an everlasting winter and ran away. 
However, Elsa didn't know what happened because of her, and built a castle with ice. She was very happy to be alone without hurting anybody. When Elsa ran away, Anna tried to find Elsa because she thought she is her sister, and she wouldn't hurt her. When Anna was in her way finding Elsa, her horse just ran away without her. Anna became cold and went inside a sauna and met Kristoff. Anna asked Kristoff for help, and persuaded him by giving the carrots and money. Kristoff took her on the back on Sven, his reindeer, and ran to the North Mountain. She finally found Elsa, but Elsa became agitated and accidentally strikes Anna. Anna's hair became white, and went on freezing. Kristoff took her to the trolls, and they said the only one way to save her is the act of true love. Kristoff thought Hans was her true love, so he took Anna to Hans. Hans acted like he was worried, but he took Anna to a room and locked the room without fire. Anna was going to die, but Olaf came and put on the fire. Olaf looked at the window and saw Kristoff and Sven coming back. Olaf jumped down with Anna and ran to find Kristoff. When they were running, Anna saw Hans with Elsa, trying to kill her. Anna ran to Elsa and blocked the sword, but she was frozen. Elsa became sad and cried, and also gave Anna a hug. Then Anna turned unfrozen again. Yes, that was the real act of true love. 

 I think this movie was very fun and interesting because there were MAGICS!! It was interesting            because using magic isn't possible in our lives but it's possible in the movie. Also I could learn what an real act of true love is. Honestly, I am a little mean to my older brother sometimes, but after I saw this movie, I thought I should be nice to my brother, and I made a self-reflection.

 Hello everyone? I'm Yun A KIm. Today, I'd like to introduce myself to you. When I was about 10 years old in Korea, my cousin sister, Hyae-Min married, and she got a baby when I was 11 years old. That's my nephew! His name is Eu-Chan. He is now turning into 3 years old. I'm now 13years old, but I should be called as 'Aunt' from him. That sounds old so I actually do not like to be called as an aunt, Also another thing interesting about me is that I have 2 house. One house is 44 square yards, and one is 58 square yards. I'm now living in 58 square yards, but actually I have 2 of them. The last, I'm actually a member of an orchestra that has 80 people. I play violin, and I'm in the charge of the 1st violin. Our orchestra plays a big play every 2 years, and a small play every 2 years. Also we play in our new 1st grader's entrance ceremony and our 6th grader's graduation ceremony, and also in the music celebration every 2 years when every graders participates.
This was all about me! Thank you.
