Homework and the other things

Actually, I don't think it's easier to do homework when I'm doing other things in the same time. It's not easy to concentrate on my work. Especially, chatting makes me loose. Whenever I am so sleepy, I'm listening to the music or radio at the same time. This way helps me to wake up; however, it makes me sleepier sometimes. Than, I'm watching YouTube videos. YouTube has many Korean TV shows, so I love it. But sometimes I couldn't stop watching videos; that's the problem. Thus, the easiest way is just listening to the radio or music. The best way is to do just homework. These kinds of things, for example, listening or watching somthing or chatting, could bother me when doing homework.

A Real problem When a Cell Phone Rings

I feel embarrassed when my cell phone rings in public places such as the bus, the subway, the theater, the hospital, the bank, etc. It is rude. So, I always keep my cell phone set on vibrate mode or silent mode. In Korea (also, in United States), if your cell phone rings during the lecture, it is very rude. So, there are some rules about this in public schools in Korea. Actually, it depends on what your teacher’s policy is. When I was a high school student, my school had a rule that teacher can take a student’s cell phone for one month if it rang during class. I have experienced my teacher seizing my cell phone three times. That was not good. With them, every public school in Korea has a rule that student can not keep their cell phone during the exams. If your cell phone rang during the exam, you could fail in the exam. I think this situation is the worst situation. In my case, my cell phone went off when I lost my way during school field trip. Fortunately, I found my teacher and friends. At that time, I felt really scared about being lost in a new place. I could not contact anybody. In this kind of emergency, a cell phone requires full charged battery.

Advice for online shopping

In Korea, shopping online is really popular and common. I got some books and clothes from the online shopping mall. And my sister got some foreign DVDs and CDs from online. This is a convenient and cheap way to buy some things. Online, there are many malls and sites for selling products. So, it's difficult to choose where to get the stuffs. In my case, I almost got good and cheap things from online, but I got bad clothes once. It was a sleeveless and pretty cheap. It was just $2, but it was so tight and small. So, it didn't fit me and if didn't fit anyone in my family including my dog. After that, I've become more prudent. The price and size of website are not important. Some small websites have high quality goods, the other hand, some big websites have bad goods. I got tat sleeveless shirt from a big website, and other good clothes from a small websites. You should read the other people's reviews and directions carefully. If there are no riviews, you can challenge them. I have an experience with that, and that was not successful. But you will be nervous until the post officer knocks on your door. And if you want to get the book, I recommend some big website. They have many kinds of books and many kinds of discounts. But I'm not recommending to get some electronic products. Some people sell bad or fake products, and it's difficult to fix them when they become broken. But my sister's DVDs and CDs were pretty good. She got those from a small website. I think that it depends on which website you choose. You can ask people who are around you which website is good or not. If they know those websites, they have some experience from it. This is similar to when everyone knows which restaurant has delicious food.

Necessary function in the cell phone

Now, I have two cell phones. One is in Korea and another is in the United States. I got a cell phone in Wal-Mart in the U.S. This cell phone has a small monitor and some basic functions. But it doesn’t have camera or other fancy functions. On the other hand, my cell phone in Korea has many functions. It has a camera, an English dictionary, and an mp3 player. And I can see the TV by using my cell phone. Definitely, this cell phone is much more expensive than the other one. However, I think this cell phone is the perfect one. Actually I don’t know what kinds of cell phones the United States has. In Korea, camera, English dictionary, and mp3 player are necessary functions in a cell phone. And to add a TV function, it will be perfect. Therefore, nobody knows what kinds of functions will be added in cell phone. The technology is developing every day, and many people are surprised by it.
