A Special Day!!!

I think my special day is the most impressive experience for me!

When I was in high school student,I was interested in the Philippines.
So I'd like to talk about the most wonderful volunteer activity in the Philippines.

When I was 2nd grade in high school,I went to the Philippines.
I think almost of the students know this country because it is famous for the gap between the poor and the rich.


while I was staying there, it rained continuously because it was the rain season but it was very fine only one day!
so I could go to the slums and take part in a certain volunteer!
This volunteer was to paint a house.

I have painted a house for the first time.
It took 4 hours to finish to paint a house.

I was very very nervous because people who live in this house kept an eye on us and I was responsible for this family.

The color I chose was yellow.
All houses in the slums are very blight because it makes poor people feel lighter at heart.

I was very tired because it was really hot during painting but After I finished painting all family members said to me "thank you!" and gave me mango juice.
Although they have a little money to have a meal, they treated us warmly.


I took part in this volunteer because I wanted to do something for poor people but I was given wonderful memories and a warm reception.
so,I moved very deeply.

This experience is the most impressive memory and my treasure.
I like volunteer.
I think volunteer is not only helping someone one-sidedly because volunteer gives us many memories and the discovery for ordinary things.

Thank you for reading!

My opinion to John's question

A cellphone is a very useful product but it also has the worst point.It is that most of the young people always use their cellphones even though their friends and parents are next to them.As for me,When I forgot my cellphone in my house,I worried about it and I wanna go back home as soon as possible.I am not able to understand a life without a cellphone!

However,when I watched a certain family influencing high technology in a restaurant a few months ago, I changed my thinking.
This family was really strange because they didn't have a talk each other until a meal.
Parents used cellphones and children played a game while they were waiting for meals.
I was wondering about why they speak nothing!

I make much of the time to talk with my family and friends because I have few times to stay with my family since I entered a university.
I realized that talking with people is not only very simple but also important for us!
If we depend on technology too much,we would forget to speak...!

The more the technology is improved, the more we can get some information all over the world.
For example, Skype and facebook help me keep in tough with foreign people easily.
Technology gives us the opportunity to communicate with various people and much information for our sharing so we must control high technology!

Now,I think the situation John said is really strange...
what a pity that they use a cellphone next to friends!!

we wanna overcome our bad habit of depending on technology!!!

wonderful clothes!!

Recently,I buy some clothes in Zara.
I like this shop.
I think everyone knows this clothes shop's name because it is one of the most famous shops and it advances this into all the countries of the world.

From now,I would like to talk about this company!!
The first ZARA store opened in Spain in 1977.
Now,there are 1400 ZARA shops all over the world.
50% of the products Zara sells are manufactured in Spain, 26% in the rest of Europe, and 24% in Asian and African countries and the rest of the world.

The company can design a new product and have finished goods in its stores in four to five weeks; it can modify existing items in as little as two weeks.
This product cycle means greater success in meeting consumer preferences.
If a design doesn't sell well within a week, it is withdrawn from shops, further orders are canceled and a new design is pursued.
In addition,the company based its improvements in the use of information technologies and using not individuals but groups of designers.

ZARA's advertising costs low because some of the funds turn to the new stores cost.
By doing so,this store continues to develop around us.

Although, foreign products are more expensive than Japanese products in the old days,now we can buy foreign products at a low price by those systems.
We can buy clothes,for example ZARA,anywhere and anytime.
I think it means fashion does not have borders.
some foreign people wear clothes like Japanese.
On the other hand,some Japanese wear clothes like foreign people as well so globalization increases around us but the most familiar things are what I wear everyday;clothes.

I think globalization for me is fashion.
