Fox's theme






In the page that fox first appeared, he had bloody evil red eyes, staring at magpie and dog as if it wants to break them apart. After that, the fox starts to creep towards them and starts talking sarcastically. "I saw you running this morning. You looked 'EXTRAORDINARY.'" And not only that, he kept on disturbing magpie and the dog when they were talking together. Finally, he ends up trying to break the relationship between magpie and dog. He continued to suggest that he can run faster than dog and asks 'Do you remember how is it to fly? TRULY FLY?' Then, magpie starts to think about it. She was desperate to have the feeling of TRULY flying again, and ends up betraying dog. At first,

Kafka's statement











‘A book should be an ice-axe to break the frozen sea within us’
-Franz Kafka




The moment I saw Kafka’s statement, several ideas popped inside my head about what the statement means. But I think the most precise idea to the real meaning of the statement in that the ‘frozen sea’ is our frozen or stunned imagination, and the ‘ice axe’ refers to the tool that can defrost it. The human brain develops only when it’s used. Imagination and knowledge from books are a shortcut to fuel our brain.
Before I read the ‘Warriors saga,’ I didn’t even see a page of an object called ‘book.’ After my’ soulmate’ (or my BEST friend) MinHee started to read this book, I started to have some interest in it. She had that book in her hand the whole time. If I asked, “Do you like me or the book?” She would have said, “Book.” The book cover’s background was dark, and it kind of gave me a feeling that my imagination or knowledge about books was like that. But, the cats on the cover seemed to move and wander around with their shimmering pelt, brightening their pitch-black surroundings. Maybe that’s why I was attracted to this book. It was mirroring my imagination. It’s dark, but there is light. It’s dark, but there’s hope. Hope for me to become creative and improve my imagination. I started to read the book. One book was over 400 pages, and there were total 6 books in the saga. Astonishingly, Park Yoon Jo, a girl that didn’t even read a single book in a year, finished the whole saga in 4 days. After that unbelievable (?) event happened, I became a humorous kid. I started to say out things that normal people couldn’t ‘imagine’. I broke the frozen sea within me.

Plastic Glass!


Dolphin shaped plastic glass


By, MIROTIC-_-V


Plastic glass. It might sound pretty cheap and pathetic to you, but surprisingly, it shows me pretty well.
7 years ago,My father gave me a dolphin shaped plastic glass that contains blue liquid and a rice that has my name written on it.
When I was about 7 years old, I was mad about the ocean, and the creatures that live there, and especially dolphins. I only read books about dolphins, searched images and information about it in Internet, and even switched my mother’s cell-phone’s background to the ocean. If I told you this much, you’ll be able to predict what color I like the most. BLUE!! As I told you from above, there is a BLUE liquid inside the plastic glass. I think those two show pretty much what I like.
In addition, I said there’s a rice with my name on it right? Korea’s main dish is rice, and most of all, I LOVE rice, especially plain white rice that is recently cooked.
Moreover, The plastic glass and the blue liquid show my personality. If someone swears or say bad things about me, I pretend that I don’t care or swear back at them to not loose and try to look tough like the plastic glass that doesn’t break easily. But, in the inside, like the weak liquid I’m not as tough as I look in the inside. I get easily hurt.
Finally, last of all, the most important part, it has MY NAME IN IT. What would show me better than my own name on it? I bet you can’t find anything better that shows me.
