I watched the 81th Academy awards on TV. The film "Slumdog Millionaire" was a winner of the day. I was sorry I didn't watch this film. My elder daughter wanted to watch this movie, but younger daughter "Coraline". Therefore, my husband and elder daughter watched "Sumdog millionaire", and I watched "Coraline" with my younger daughter. I have too many things that I want to do but I can't do because of 5 year old girl. My first daugter who is 15 years old sometimes is complaining about the existence of her younger sister. Even though I used to say all family is important, it is hard to take care of a kid. A cute girl makes me harder because she is very adorable. I can't deny her proposals because she is so pretty. I read the book that she want to. I play the game that she want to. My husband and first daughter say to me I make a girl spoiled, but they also do something in the way that she want to do.
10 years ago, I wanted time passed away. But now if time passed away, I am getting older.

One of Korean old sayings is that it is too difficult to live in a place with different people and water. After I came Califoria, I agree half with this saying. California water is strange to me. My bathroom and kitchen has coverd with white and hard something even though I washed around there. Probably California water includes too many minerals. I doubt California water quality so that I buy bottled water. I feel nervous that bottled water is very expensive and heavy to deliver it. Moreover, even bottled water is divided by purified water and mineral water. Even though Korea are producing mineral bottled water, it has less mineral than California's. Also, I know some purified botteld water brands is not good, because purified water is easy to be contaminated. I don't believe faucet water in California, and it is hard to choose and buy the good bottled water.
Also, I am afaraid of Police officials here. Two months after I came here a police car let my car stop. The police woman in black uniform said to me that don't move and you should have stopped at the stop line. I said I stopped, but she said I should have stopped for a longer time. while she was talking to me, her hand was grabbing the gun placed on her waist belt. After the day, I feel nervous whenever I see police officials.

My favorite season is the autumn. I like the fall because of its mild temperature and beautiful colour. My chubby tummy can't be concealed by a light summer look, and a winter coat is too heavy. Climates of the fall is poper to take a walk. I am used to drink a coffee at the outdoor cafe wearing a simple cardigan and a scarf in the fall. The Fall gives me gentle breeze and shows me white clouds. If there are not the Fall, I might not feel the earth is beautiful so that I might love to stay at home all around year.
Moreover, even though California's Fall is not, falling leaves in the Fall are very beautiful. I am facinated by the picture of Canada's Fall secenery. I 'd like to visit Canada in the Fall. Of course, my country Korea has the beatutiful Fall covering yellow and red falling leaves. I especially loves yellow falling leaves. The background of splendid yellow colours can make me gain the good picture. I feel happy when I play with my children frying falling leaves and take a picture with them on the background the Fall secenery.

I prefer having a small party to bigger ones. At the second birthday after I married, I finally could have the party for two with only just hudsband. We had made a reservation in the luxurious hotel for one night. On my twenty eighth birthday, we arrived there at 5 pm. At first, we took exercise at the fitness center and relaxation at the spa. After doing that, we had a fabulous dinner at the Italian restaurant and drink and dance at the night club of the hotel.
The hotel room was spacious and had a great view. Moreover, there are nice sofas and a table, and those made me feel better with the cake and candles and the present which he prepared. Even though I actually loved atmosphere mooded with candles. especially the day was more romantic because there are only me and my husband in the wonderful room with the nice music stereo systems and very big windows. His birthday present for me was a pretty necklace, and I was very happy at that night. Probably, our baby might come to us at that night. Ten months later from the day, we had a first daughter.

I watched the Super Bowl game last Sunday. Even though for last 10 minutes is it terrific, I was boring at watching this game like other sports game. Only commercials made me fascinate. Especially,the commercial of Audi was very cool. It was fantastic as like watching 007 films. This commercial had no narrations but copies, so I can more eagerly concentrate on that. However, when I watched news programs, I was disappointed that Americans chose the Doritos commercial as the best one. Probably, due to nowadays economical recession, it seems that Americans prefer the economically produced commercial to the one like blockbuster.
The Super Bowl is very meaningful to Koreans, because Hines Ward is half Koreans and Hyundai Motors is the sponsor for the Super Bowl. I am happy Hines Ward's team won. Also, I am proud of Hyundai Genesis advertising on Super Bowl. I like very much Hyundai cars, but I think the Audi commercials is more impressive. After this Super Bowl, I think the advertising is one of the hardest game accomplished with budget and ideas.
