6th post: Photo Essay

Introduction
I've got to go to the 20th GLPS summer camp during the vacation. I was very excited and kind of worried. I want to use this time very usefully for my development. I hope I will enjoy it and have some fun as the last camp I'll be able to go until I'm 20 years old.






First Picture : Bus
Firstly, I took a bus to come to the GLPS camp. It took about 2 hours to come to KMLA. I  listened to music and made phone calls to my parents. I was
very happy and very excited about the program.






Second Picture: Dormitory

The dormitory has 12 floors. I've got to stay in the 8th floor room number 7. There were 6 friends in two rooms. The bed was above the desk. There were staircases as well. I felt kind of awkward because it wasn't my home. I felt weird about it, though soon I adapted to the environment.


Third Picture : Cafeteria
The cafeteria was quite big. We've got to get our food like a buffet. We were able to get as much food as I wanted. There were a variety of menus such as spaghetti, seafood, salad, and many others. I think I'm becoming healthier due to not eating snacks that I usually eat at home.




Fourth Picture: Friends



I made 3 friends that are very close to me. They are Su-yeon, Su-Gyeong, and Sung-Eun. Two of them are in my room and the other one is in my class. I think they are very kind and nice. I think they are friends that had  been friends for 10 years. They are thoughtful and wise.



Fifth Picture: Hills

There are steep hills in KMLA. I had a hard time becoming familiar with them. I always get tired and my legs trembled. It seemed that the hill would never end. I think I'm losing weight due to the hills. I hope I'll have lost 3kg after this camp.

                                                                                           

Sixth Picture : Rain


It rained cats and dogs during the first week. It was very humid and sticky. My socks were always wet and I felt very dirty. I intend to take a shower more frequently now.




Seventh Picture: Mock Trial

My favorite subject in the GLPS camp is Mock Trial. It is a form of debate. We have the Crown and the Defense. There are witnesses and the accused. There are some roles that everybody can participate in. It is very fun competing with each other and stating strong arguments.




Conclusion
I am having a lot of experiences in the GLPS camp. It is quite enjoyable and I'm having a good time.I hope there will be good result in my speech and mock trial contest! I also hope this camp will be a god motive for me to flourish and attend good a high school.

  1. I find this post disappointing in its picture selection; some of these pictures you could have easily taken yourself instead of resorting to finding pictures on the web. The paragraph about your friends could have simply been a picture of you and your roommates instead.
