[School activities] Finalizing gathering of items for the flea market&raffles

 Spring carnival will be held by tomorrow! Members of the flea market team have collected all boxes(items) from Kindergarten to Grade 12. And we priced on every single item. Even today, many students/teachers and staffs hand us their items. It was a calories-burning exercise for us to collect all of the items but it was fun! Some items were brand-new or seemed very fancy. So we gathered them into another group and put them into the main office. By 21st April 2017, we will sell items in the flea market and provide items for the raffle so I want as many people to come and join the event.

After the cleaning, they put lake water back. In result, this lake became so much cleaner than the past times. Our CCP also took a liter of wat...

[NORMAL DAYS IN KOREA] Review on Jamsil baseball stadium

As an avid Lotte Giants fan, I could not miss an opportunity to watch a match held in Seoul. There was a match between Lotte Giants and Doosan Bears on 23rd June. I had no hesitance to buy a ticket for that. I went to the stadium with my friend, who is a fan of the Doosan Bears. The ticket costs approximately $10.5 per person (weekday fare/The second floor and Infield seats). It was a reasonable price. This is a waiting queue to enter the baseball stadium. I could see many Lotte fans visit here to root for Lotte as I do. Basically, Jamsil Baseball Stadium is a baseball stadium located between the business area and the residential area of Seoul. Thereby Jamsil Stadium always has relatively more fans than those of any other stadiums.  Food that I ate in the stadium. Well-grilled Korean BBQ was a nice choice for me during watching a game. This is one of the remarkable rooting chants(?) ever I experienced in my life. This is basically a chant that disturbs...
