My semicircular pillow

 I describe my semicircular pillow. When I hug a pillow in my bosom, I felt comfortable. Semicircular pillow was a gift from my parents to 22 years ago. So it was older than me. In semicircular has pink and white cross stripes. It has mane around semicircular. Its color is wine. When I hug a pillow, I feel a sense of closeness. It felt like I was going to be sucked into somewhere. It was a comfort. So I love time when I used up a semicircular pillow.

Chuseok!

 Chuseok is the Korean Thanksgiving day. Date is August 15th in the lunar calendar. Chuseok falls on Sep 22th this year. Koreans usually wear hanbok (traditional Korean clothes) on Chuseok or Seollal (Korean New Year's Day). I always wear hanbok. Chuseok is giving thanks for the harvest. And Chuseok is a time for families to get together. I went to my hometown for this Chuseok. I meet all my relatives, eat lots of food. This is one of the reasons why I like Chuseok.

 We are having something special things on Chuseok. First, we make a wish on the full moon. Thus we believe that our wish is come true. Second, we make special rice cake called Songpyun. Songpyun is the special food that Koreans eat on Chuseok. It is half-moon shaped and stuffed with sesame seeds and sugar, sweet beans or chestnut filling.  Third, we visit our ancestors' grave. We pay respect to their ancestors by visiting their graves and offering them rice and fruit. This Chuseok our family visit my maternal grandfather’s grave. He died last year. His grave is far from our house. So we could not often visit. Forth, Chuseok have a terrible traffic jam. Every year highways were jammed with cars returning to Seoul. But this Chuseok have holidays interspersed with workdays. If we rearrange schedule, we can rest 9 day. So this Chuseok was not having traffic jam as compared with other holiday.

 Chuseok is special day for Koreans. I hope that you enjoy Korea’s traditional Chuseok.

Remains in Egypt

 My dream is to be an Archaeologist.

 I'm interested in digging up of ancient civilization, so I love Egypt. Egypt has a rich history dating back thousands of years.  

 The pyramids and the sphinx testify to Egypt's legacy as a majestic and wondrous civilization. Pyramid is one of the Seven Wonders of the World. It is actually tomb of pharaoh who is king of Egypt's Old Kingdom.  According to Pyramid's legend, it has the curse of the mummy. The curse began when many terrible events occurred after the discovery of King Tutankhamen's tomb. Legend has it that anyone who dared to open the tomb would suffer the wrath of the mummy. Whether the mummy’s curse is fact or fiction. But I believe that pyramid has the curse of the mummy.

 Sphinx is pyramid's guardian. The body of a lion with the head of a king or god, the sphinx has come to symbolize strength and wisdom.

 Greek and Roman mythology was included the sphinx riddle.

 Sphinx asked the question of people who passed it.  The question is very wisdom, which is 'who walks with four legs in the morning, with two legs in the afternoon, and with three legs in the evening'.  The answer of this question is a man. Because a man crawled when young, walked after, and walked with three legs because of a stick.

 Thus, Egypt has been charming remains.  If I become grown up, I'll go to Egypt. So I would like to research of ancient civilization.
