I love watching movies. I don’t know since when I like it, but I still remember that I got very excited every Saturday night because there were movies on TV. Although I was just a little kid who didn’t know what a movie is like and what the actors were doing in the movie, but I just enjoyed the movie and the acting. I don’t know whether it had an effect on me to watch movies, I think I was talented in acting when I young. Sometimes I acted as if I had been sad or angry while hanging around with friends. All my friends didn’t figure out if it was playing. I used to imagine myself acting in hypothetical situation for fun, while laying down on the bed to go to sleep. Back then, it was really fun watch their puzzled face, and that nobody could figure out if I was acting, as it seemed quite real. I really enjoyed making fake feelings and imagining putting myself into some hypothetical situations. I was a curious boy. I wondered about the feelings I’ve never felt before. I used to spend time on imagining the feelings and situations as if it was from a movie. Even though I’m a grown up, I imagine it would be fun if I became an actor. I think I would try if I had good looks like actors.

3. On the blog (optional extra credit): Write about someone you admire. Tell why you admire them 

It’s Jonathan Edwards that I admire most. At first, I didn’t know much about him until I started reading books about him. Since I started reading those books, I got shocked by his passionate life in faith.

He is one of the greatest believers with John Calvin and Augustine in Christian history. Some people say that Calvin and Augustine have a great effect on Christian history, specifically in Protestant history, though Jonathan Edwards is the greatest one. Each of these great theologians have a feature in their theology. Firstly, Augustine had a broad knowledge of the world, and it is well shown through his works. Secondly, the feature of John Calvin is conciseness in his work. The essence of his conciseness is well shown in the book that he compiled the whole Christian doctrines into it. Lastly, though they were great theologian without dispute, Jonathan Edwards had something different form them, which is one of the reasons some people estimate him superior to the others in some way. It is the depth of his theology. His work is full of profound insight.

Another reason that I admire him is that he was a person who never let himself lazy and satisfied but tried to live a life rightly in God. In his mind, there was nothing but Jesus. He didn’t want to feel or have anything if it’s against getting to know God and growing his faith in Jesus. He made decisions everyday to live more like Jesus and estimate his life himself if the decisions were retained.

I’ve never imagined if there has been a person like him who struggled incredibly hard to live after Jesus. I hope someday God made me as passionate as he was in faith like he did to him.

  B.Optional extra credit: Write an extra blog post. Tell about something interesting that you learned about in chapel or one of your other classes.

I took a class named ‘understanding of God and human’. It was about Christian doctrines. I’ve learned many things from the class. The most impressive one among them that I’ve learned was about the providence of God. What it’s said about the providence of God was beyond what I thought it would be. God not only created universe but manage it himself. It said that God manage everything on earth. Nothing can happen without his permission. Anything can happen, if he wants. Even a leaf can’t fall off without his will. A drop of water can’t fall down on the ground against him. The same thing applies to human. He discerns our going out and our lying down, and is familiar with all our ways. He perceives our thoughts from afar. Before a word is on our tongue he knows it completely. So, there is no such thing as a coincidence because everything is under his control, even Satan. 

 A. Write a travelblog (200-300 words) about a place that you have gone. (The place could be somewhere around Chongshin University if you prefer.) Include photos if you can.

I’ve gone to JeJu island a couple of years ago, which is located at the bottom of Korea. It’s one of the most beautiful tour spots in Korean. As it was busy season when I went to JeJu island, it was expensive at almost twice the price than usual. So, if you are planning to go to JeJu island, I recommend that you avoid peak season.

I stayed there for 2 days. On the first day, I rented a car and drove along the seashore. It was amazing to drive, listening to music, along the seashore in a lovely sunny day. I visited 천지연 water fall. It consists of three different water fall. Although the first one was the smallest among them, it was the most beautiful one. The water fall was surrounded by columnar joint and the color of the lake was emerald green, which was incredibly beautiful.

On the second day, I went to Seongsan Ilchulbong, which was an amazingly beautiful small mountain that has wide plain and is surrounded by sea. Though I haven’t gone to many places, it was the most beautiful spectacle. My first view of the scene took my breath away. I was totally overwhelmed by the solemn scene.

If there is only one place I can visit again, it’s the one without hesitating. I hope you visit there once someday.
