In Yangpeong (robert KIM) 5J
On Saturday, my friends and I were going to a pension in Yangpeong to play. It was total of 15 people, exactly three cars, and four people in each. It was exciting to go with my friends to a pension because we could play in the stream and play poker or Halli Galli all day. These friends were my best friends in Elementary School. We all went to different schools. Except for two, they went to the school all of us would of gone to if we did not move to another place.
We always meet once a month, in one of our houses. Most of the times, we make fake money by paper, and play poker. It is really fun when they make you think they have a straight, full house, or a flush, but they actually do not have it. We bet about 100 won (fake) and give money to the dealer. I do not know why we give it to the dealer, I did it because my friends did it, but they think that the card the dealer gives will become better. I gave the dealer about 1000 won but I only won twice.
Another game we played was pillow fight. There were total of 7 kids playing, becase two did not play because they did not like getting hit. We divided by 4 and 5. My team always won. I requested for 1 to 6. It was me against everyone. We played this way 5 times, and I won all. The way I win is, do not be scared to be hit, it is just a pillow. However, my friends were all tired, so was I.
In conclusion, although it was only one night, I made a lot of memories and would want to come here again with my friends.

Term-end Exam (Kelly Shin 5P)
July 7th was the first day of a term-end exam of my school, and it ended on July 10th. Because of this big
exam, I had been absent for about two weeks to Lex Kim English School. in term-end exam, there were 12
subjects which were Korean, math, social, science, Japanese, English, morality, music, Chinese letters, art and
more.
I prepared for this exam for three weeks at the library, I think it was pretty helpful for me because the
library was very quiet and everybody at the library was studying hard. I finished studying Korean, English on
the first day of preparing time, and I used a lot of time to study social and science to memorize them. The
hardest subject to study was Japanese. All I knew in Japanese was only a few words, and I had to memorize
Japanese letters and conversations.
During the exam period, I could feel that everyone was panicking before the test. The very first subject
we were having was math! I was very bad at math all the times, so I was really worried, and as I worried, I
spoiled math test. However, I think that I did good on art, Korean, science, and English.
On the last day of the exam, which was Friday, July 10th, I went to Coex mall with my friends to play!! We
went to singing room and took sticker photo. We only played for 3 hours because I had a math lesson. I was
really happy because this boring and sick exam was finally over! I hope I did great on this exam.

After test (Jane Kim, 5J)
Two days ago, our school exam had finally ended!!
As a celebration for it, me and my three close friends decided to walk around the main streets of Seoul.
The first place that we decided to go was, the "KyoBo" bookstore.
After we bought some books there, we also visited "Hot Tracks" too.
The highlight of this day was taking a s.p.
Since we aren't expert at that category, our photo seemed bit strange and odd,
but to me it was quite interesting photo.(( just for my case.
