My life priorities are:

1. Helping others.
2. Have fun.
3. Leave the world better than I found it.
4. Make friends with people from all over the world.
5. Kissing.

I think that the most important thing that any person can do is to dedicate their lives to helping others. We live in a world where people often think of themselves and their family first and don't really care about their local or global community. I think that true happiness comes from giving your time, money, and energy to make life better for everyone. I also think that having fun is important. Enjoy good food, have a glass of wine, listen to beautiful music, climb a mountain and watch the sunrise. These are the little pleasures that make life sweet. And they don't require a lot of money. I would like to leave the world a better place than I found it. I try to recycle and minimize my environmental "footprint." I pick up garbage in the mountains. These are small things, but if everyone did it the world would be a much better place. I also think that one thing that has made my life rich has been being able to travel and make friends with people from all over the world. In the end we find that we are all different and we are all the same. And last, kissing. I think that kissing and having a loving relationship with another person is an important part of a happy life. It takes a lot of work to keep the passion alive in a long-term relationship but it is worth it. I have found that a large quantity of high quality kissing is key to maintaining the fire. Those are my priorities. I hope I can remember them every day.

Hi Joe teacher!!!! I agree with your life priorities, especially the first and the forth one. As I wrote, I had much fun and got lots of lesson in community service. If I have chance to go again, I will not hesitate to go. Well, I can try to make that chance, though.
Also I really love to meet and talk to new people in other country. They are all different, so I can listen various stories. We exchange e-mail address, and actually I'm still keeping in touch with some of them. It's really great. Anyway, It was good to think what important things I have in my life and I guess I will practice these in rest of my life from now on. Thank you Joe teacher. I'm enjoying your class so much!! :)

My life priorities are:

1. enjoying my life
2. my family
3. health
4. have much money.
5. have job which I want.

Hi Joe teacher! My first life priority is to enjoy my life.
I love to enjoy my life. These days many people haven't enough
their free time. Unlike them, I have much time because I am 22years old. hahaha! When I have enough time, I go to karaoke , theater and drinking alcohol. I think that it is important in my life.
Second, I think that my family is very important in my life. I very love them. Without family's life would be pointless. They give me happiness. They also give me encourage when I got nervos. To me, family is very important existence. Do you agree with me? ^^
Third,I think that health also is important. I can do anything when I am healthy. Health is more improtant than others.
Fourth, having much money also important in my life. Without money, we couldn't do everything today. I want to earn a lot of money.
Finally, getting job which I want is important. If I should have this job, I will spend live happily

1. be healthy
2. be good person
3. do somethings that I want
4. feel happy by falling in love
5. be the best in my field.

I think that health is the most important. Losing my health means losing everything. Furthermore, I can't never do anything unless I'm healthy. I should keep fit in order to achieve my goal. Therefore, I think that health is considered as the first priority.

Also, I think that being good person is important to get along with others. If I would have good personalities, I can meet good guy, too. According to my dad's saying, friend is a kind of property that will be helpful in my lifetime. Thus, I want to be a good guy.

There are lots of things that I want to do and be. However, I don't want to dedicate myself in just one thing. As my teacher joe said, life is too short. In addition, it never allow me to do everything and give me time enough. Therefore, doing somethings that I want is very important such as volenteering, caring about my appearance

Probably, nothing makes me happier than falling in love. Five years ago, I loved the girl and it was the last love in my life. Isn't it so sad? Moreover, nowadays, I become hysterical and it makes my friends distressed. Because of it, I'm very sorry to all of my friend so I decided to be more enthusiastic to find my girl.

Being the best is the common goal which the men are aimed at. Especiallym I want to be a politician. Although I'm young, I'm highly interested in politics and policy. Thus, I want to engage in politics. Also, I want to be a symbol of diligent and intergrity. As the proverb says : "Tigers leave only their skins when they die, but through his achievements a man's name lives on."

However, now, the most important thing is posting my opinion on weebly until Monday midnight!!!!!!.

1. Workout
2. Parents.
3. Have hobbies
4. Money
5. Diet

How many times do you work out a week? Do you ever work out once a week? For me, I like working out especially, weight training. I think we should exercise at least once or twice a week so that we can keep our body healthy, which means to strengthen our immunity system. It will also make you look younger than someone who doesn’t work out because it is effective in preventing aging.

My parents have been supporting me for about 27 since I was born. Every time, I am very thankful for my parents’ help. I just realize that I want to repay the help that they have given to me. It becomes one of motives that are why I want to be a successful person who earns lots of money.

Without hobbies, my life will be meaningless and boring. Of the whole life, I don’t want to only study hard. I will do something that makes me happy and energetic. Recently I went to table tennis club. I am not a good player but I enjoy the process of getting better than I was before.

I want to live peacefully with someone that I love. In order to do so, above all thing I need at least two things, my own car and house. To buy them, I need a lot of money. I guess I couldn’t make the money even for several years. So I think I need to invest my little allowance in something, Lotto. I have invested for 6 months, 5thousan wons , every week. I am sure to win but who knows the future? Wish me luck, please.

I am a little bit fat because I like eating. I really enjoy having a taste of food. I am very curious about the tastes of foods. I can’t stop it. To make matters worse, I am the big eater. It is a little pointless to work out on running machine if I eat a lot. Now as I am getting old, I need to reduce my fat, not muscle. Someone give me an advice. I am kind of desperate.

1. positive
2. play with my friends

I think that most important thing is positive. It`s to make a good effect to life. Also we will be successful in life. If I have a positve attitude, I`ll get the best work. But it is difficult to get determination. So I should try to get positive mind. The positive mind needs, first of all, to be really want to myself.
Also, I love to play with my friends. Enjoy good food, have a drink, drive to anywhere, swim a pool. These are the pleasure that make funny life.

I agree with your priorities. I also think having fun is maybe basically important thing in our lives. while we enjoys our lives, we can get pleasures that can be a vitamin of our lives. Also, we can live more active and healthy when we are happy. I think that if I join a volunteer work community to help others in all over the world and can make global friends who work in the community with me, it would be very exciting. :D I think that if I feel happiness in my life, I can do more better whatever by positive energy.^^

What a shame..
I apologize to Joeteacher for the late homework..
I am so sorry.

1 To be a good daughter
2 Falling in love
3 Being healthy
4 Getting a good job
5 To thank for many little things around me

There are many things that are very important in my life. However, My first priority is to be a good daughter. There are good times and bad times in life. I think, it is only parents who will be always by my side through thick and thin. Parents dedicate themselves to taking care of their children without any strings attached. Therefore, it is the most important thing to do my duty by my parents to pay back for their great love.
I also think that falling in love with another is so important in everyone's life. I have been going out with my boyfriend about three years now. Since i first met him, I have found out the world is much more beautiful than before. Also I could value myself a lot higher because there is one who trust that I am the most beautiful and sexiest girl on earth. How sweet there is even one person who think I am the best!
Third, It is necessary to be healthy. Although, You have a great appearance, succeeded in your field and earned a lot of money, I think it is worse than having nothing if u are sick and spend rest of your life on the bed in hospital.
In addition, I would like to get a good job. The meaning of good job depends on the person. In my case, it is the best job which can provide me enough money to pay living expenses and free time to enjoy my hobbies, above all that I can have fun at the work.
Finally, I would be the most happiest person in the world if i could thank for little things around me. I always try not to envy of others who look better than me and try to thank for what I already have. I would prefer being satisfied with my old sneakers to coveting luxury bags. Then I can take a look around and help the poor.
I wish I remember all my priorities and keep them forever.

< My life priorities >

We all have life priorities and I also have some priorities in my life. Perhaps people think these are a little common but I consider these as really important, though.

My first life priority is to keep my family happy. I've been grown up in a very harmonious family. I have perfect parents who always care for and love us, and I also have warmhearted sister and brother. They give me strength to live, study and everything. As they are making me happy and supporting me in almost every way, I want to be their strength and support them to do whatever they want. To do that, I should be happy all the time, because I know that It makes my family happy too! In addition, when I settle down and have my own family, I will do my best to make my husband and kids happy. I believe I can be the happiest person, then.

Doing things I like is my second priority. I wish I could have job what I want. If I could, I can work more efficiently than any other people and maybe I will have less stress doing my work. As I work, I can not only earn some money but also help people in need. I was involved in community service in the Philippines about 5 years ago. I was so young but I still remember the feeling I had there. The people there was so thankful to us that we gave them food, medicines, song service, and so on. I cannot forget that they ran after our car, waving their hands, when we left. Sometimes It's good to serve other, as Joe teacher said. It make my life more valuable.

I think having good relationship with people around me and make unforgettable memory with them is also very important. I have old friends who know me really well, new friends who are getting to know each other, friends who met in other countries, school teachers, and neighbors. They are part of my life. I'm drawing on paper called 'life'. If I paint by myself, with only my own color, It will be too simple. However, If I paint with people around me who have various colors, I can make such a wonderful painting!! I really want to make my life wonderful and meaningful.

These are my top priorities in my life. I hope I can keep all these in my mind and be a doer, not only a talker.

My life priorities are:
1.Dream
2.family and friends
3.enjoying life
4.money
5.health

I think that important thing in my life that people have a big dream. They set a goal and endeavor to achieve this goal constantly. There is no hope or passion without dreams. maybe.. waste anyway their's school days and precious time.

I also think that family and friends are important. They always stand be e and the breath of my life. They empower me whenever I am sad or happy.

And enjoying life has made luxury life. spending time in civilize life,
forexample see a movie, a musical, a play and so on...to day, most people lead very busy life. as a time take your time and need to enjoy a good time.

Think realistically, money is nothing to sneeze. money is essential to human life. we were paid for food, clothes, and anythingelse. And in a Capitalist society, money is essential thing.
but, there is more to life than money.

The most important thing that I think that have a health body. Health is the first requisite to foundation in life. I can achieve everything when I am health enough.

Those are my priorities.I will appreciate that I can enjoy a my life.

My life priorities are:
1. enjoy my own life
2. promises
3. my health
4. friends
5. G.D.M

first of all, I want to enjoy my own life. life is one only. I don`t believe that there is another life such as heaven and hell. if I die, there is nothing with me. therefore, I have to enjoy everything I do even studies.
promises is second one. when I make a promise, even though it`s small things, I pay super special attention. because, if I break my word, my confidence and reputation will be gone.
third, health is everything!! when I had a car accident, I was in so much painful. (actually, I didn`t hurt much, nothing broken) after then, when it`s raining day, I feel sore all over. and I started to take care of myself to follow my first priority.
I consider friends as my fourth priority. I hate being alone. I need friends not like Keun-Ki.
the last one is G.D.M. it`s joke. I think you will ask what it mean. it`s girls, drinks and money. lol!! every man want to get G.D.M, don`t they? haha~ forgive me^^

All of the people may have their own priorities. I also have my own.

First, my family. Actually, my family life has changed diversely. And to be frankly, we stood under a mighty hard time when I was young.
For instance, my hometown is Seoul, but my family moved to Malaysia when I was only one year old child. Because then my father was a Korean government-sponsored student in a Malaysian university. Even my younger sister's home town is Kuala Lumpur, the capital city of Malaysia because she was born there during our family's staying in Malaysia. So I went to an international school and my mom taught Korean students at our home. Our family stayed there for almost six years. We came back to Korea when I was an elementary school student. And we settled down in Busan because my father was offered a professorship at an university in Busan. My mother also became a teacher in a middle school. Again about 3 years ago my family moved to Ulsan where my mom was newly transferred to.
As you can see above, my family has diverse experience since I was child. But we always stand by each other in joy and sorrow. And with the love of my family, I was able to get over the tough times. The memories of family make my life fulfilling. I can't forget my childhood memory and I thank to my parents that I could experience many things.

Secondly, my friends. “If you could get at least three true friends, you have accomplished everything in life.” It is one of the old sayings about 'Friendship' in Korea. I think a friend is one of the most valuable things for me along with love. Fortunately, I already have three best friends. I can proudly say that they are truthful to me and will accompany all my life. Many years will pass and numerous things will change, but the old saying will remain “a friend is important for a person’s life”, and I learned it from my experience with my friends. I hope we continue to depend on each other and enjoy the days together all our lives.

Lastly, my hope and dream. I have wanted to learn Japanese always. In Korea, most high school students choose to learn either Japanese or Chinese as a second foreign language. But during my school days there was no Japanese class in our high school. So I had no other choice but to study Chinese that I found very difficult to learn because of the complex intonation. I have several reasons why I want to learn Japanese.
First, learning foreign language is always an interesting venture for me to know other countries as well as their culture, and Japanese is one of the most influential languages in the world now.
Secondly, I have a personal interest about Japan. During the last winter vacation, I went to Japan for a short tour. The trip itself was wonderful, but I felt a little inconvenience during my one-week stay there. I could hardly understand what they said. If I could speak Japanese only a little then, it would have been much more interesting trip, I think.
And thirdly, the reason why I want to learn Japanese is because my cousins are Japanese for my aunt married to a Japanese Medical Doctor. Naturally, it is hard to talk with my cousins when I meet them. We could only use English and it surely has certain limitations. It is said that Japanese is pretty similar with Korean. It has similar grammar rules, and furthermore some pronunciations of Japanese vocabularies are pretty similar with those of Korean because Chinese characters have long been used in the two countries. I think it is not that hard to learn Japanese if I only study hard.

1. be healthy
2. be good person
3. do somethings that I want
4. feel happy by falling in love
5. be the best in my field.

I think that health is the most important. Losing my health means losing everything. Furthermore, I can't never do anything unless I'm healthy. I should keep fit in order to achieve my goal. Therefore, I think that health is considered as the first priority.

Also, I think that being good person is important to get along with others. If I would have good personalities, I can meet good guy, too. According to my dad's saying, friend is a kind of property that will be helpful in my lifetime. Thus, I want to be a good guy.

There are lots of things that I want to do and be. However, I don't want to dedicate myself in just one thing. As my teacher joe said, life is too short. In addition, it never allow me to do everything and give me time enough. Therefore, doing somethings that I want is very important such as volenteering, caring about my appearance

Probably, nothing makes me happier than falling in love. Five years ago, I loved the girl and it was the last love in my life. Isn't it so sad? Moreover, nowadays, I become hysterical and it makes my friends distressed. Because of it, I'm very sorry to all of my friend so I decided to be more enthusiastic to find my girl.

In my opinion, health is the most important factor in my life. Suppose I have an illness. I must be always worried about my health. Naturally, I have no enough time to enjoy various things that I interested. So, if I'm unhealthy, I can't do freely whatever I want. Also, that coule make me crazy.
Family and friends are also motive power of life to me. Whenever I feel hard, I can endure because there are family and friends by my side. How super lucky I am~!! I always feel comfortable because of my adorable family and friends. I can't even imagine life without them.
I also respect my dream. Without dream, I can't develop step by step. I have a dream, and I have a belief. That makes me to feel alive. Of course, that's why I live day by day.
I wanna enjoy my own life. There is a phrase I like the most. "Seize the day" and "Carpediem". I hope enjoy my life more than anyone else.
Finally, I think lover is another necessary factor in my life. Wherever love exists, it looks like much brighter than anywhere else. With love, I can create another love. maybe even bigger one.:-)

My life priorities are:

1. family’s happiness and health
2. Gain fame in society.
3. Experience many things.
4. Making and keeping friends.
5. diet

Family’s happiness and health. That’s my number one priority. We have lived with family by sharing everything like thought, experience and emotion. Family always encourage one another. Also they stand by each other in joy and sorrow. I really love and care my family. It is not too much to say that I live for my family. We have done everything together, from going on a picnic to cooking on Sunday. They are my friend and teacher. I wish my family’s happiness and health all the time.
Secondly, I suppose that gaining fame in society is important. One of my dreams is that awarding with the President's Award. So I truly want to be mentioned in the newspapers only once.
Experiencing many things is also important. Since I was freshman, I’ve experienced many things like traveling, volunteer work, contest exhibit and camp activities. The experience was valuable and precious and that was one reason I came to maturity. I’ll learn through experience now and for ever.
I also think that making and keeping friends is essential for life. It is important to have a good relationship with old friends consistently. However, I think meeting a lot of different people and socializing with them is more important. Human is social being. It is tough to live without social communication. And If we do something, sometimes the so-called personal connections can affect.
The last priority is diet. It wasn't the priority before. Now, I wish I were slender. If I were slender, I could be Miss Korea. Just kidding. : ) I’m not slim, though. ㅜ.ㅜ Most Korean women are stressed about diet. So am I. I’ve seen people who changed lives result from diet in the newspapers. Diet is able to influence one's life. But, there are a lot of delicious food in the world. I think that diet is an unsolved assignment.

My life priorities are:

1. My Happiness
2. family
3. enjoy life
4. have a good relationship with my friends
5. use my time effectively

I think that the most important thing is my happiness. Many people live in this world and priorities they think are diverse. They who have a variety of occupations are living their lives. But are they all happy? Do they live a happy life? I think Life without happiness is unfortunate. The rich are not always happy. But poor people can be happy. Therefore, The first consideration of my life is being happy! I will do somethings I want and enjoy my life.
I also think that family is important. My family always cherish and love me. They always stay with me when I have difficult or dangerous. My parents are committed to me. But many people don't know how valuable the family. Because the family is always beside me. So I am always sorry to my family. For me, the priority is family. I want thire health and good relationship.
It is also important to enjoy life. Make and meet friends, do various experiences, have what you want and read a lot of books!
I think these things make life more valuable. Life is only once..so you should have fun.
Having a good friends is important too. You don't live life alone. Sociery is made up of many people. So I think what makes a good friend is needed in my life. I can tell my troubles and have help from my friends. Everyone should have a friend to get it out. And having a good relationship with friends is also necessary.
Finally, I think that using my time effectively is an important part of my life. I often waste time. So I have to have more time for self-improvement and spend my free time effectively. It makes my life happier and invaluable.

My life priorities are:

1. family
2. health
3. happiness
4. money
5. relationship

Family is my life's driving force. They always stands by me in joy, sorrow and agony. We can depend on without any strings attached. Family is the most important possession in my life. So family is my first priority.

Health is one that we can't buy with money. We should be thankful for being healthy. As I am healty, I can do something I want to do more than someone who are not healthy. But most of people forget that being healthy is their happiness.

Happiness is necessary in our life. I always want to be a happy person. And I will try to experience happy things in the foreseeable future.

I think money is very improtant in our life particularly in today's society. I don't want to acknowledge it, but it is true. If we have money, we can do almost any thing. So one reason that I study now is to earn money.

Some say through person's bonds, we guess the person. I agree with that. Good bonds can reflect good influence. I think intimate and strong ties are also an important factor in my life.

My life priorities are:

1, Friends and family
2. Think positive
3. Have a good job
4. Have a sense of humor

My friends and family is the most important in my life. Keeping in touch with them makes me happy and comfortable. When I have a conversation with them, I feel a sense of belonging and more affinity. If I have no friend and family, I feel all alone in the world. And they have been there for me whenever I’m dawn. I really love my friends and family. I think that to be positive is also important. There are always tough things that I deal with. However if I think positive, I can do everything!
There is no absolute standard of a good job. Everybody has different standards. Money is also important, but I think the most important thing when I choose a job is satisfaction. If I have a job that makes me unhappy and crazy, I can stand it and will leave my job. So, having a good job means a fulfilling career. Finally, I can’t leave out a sense of humor. No matter how hard situation, I try to laugh more often. I can’t imagine my life without laughter and joy.

Life Priorities, well...I didn't think about this real serious ones. However, I have gotten and lived with a personal rule made by myself. Maybe this can replace the priorities of my life.

The first one is my self-satisfaction. Well, some of you can ask me that it's a kinda li'l bit selfish one, but I can answer that it can be a motivation of all of your behaviors in your life. I think that the reason of the lifestyle is a sort of the most important thing while enjoying the one and only life in the world, and I have the self-satisfaction for this. that's all I think about this. Let's have a thought about yours. :D

Secondly, I can nominate helping other people in this position of my life priorities. Well in fact, I used to help other people if I can, such as english translation work, PPT construction for presentation, adivsing some artworks of my friends or so. When playing the game online, I also help newbie players to have fun while wandering the virtual world. And mostly I get answers such as "Thank you for leading me:D" or so.

Third one is the balancing of positive things and negative ones. I got this when I was in the army for my duty of military service, and I cleaned this up to one rule; remember good memories as long as possible and forget bad ones ASAP, and this helped me a lot till this day and now I can endure the most of serious bad news and make a breakthrough about them calmly.

Fourth, the durability and the stability. these are important when I'm practicing something such as drawing, writing and even speaking in english(Just as the Prof. Joe told us in last class :D)! I can recommend this if you want to master something. Make it as your habit and you can have it in the rest of your life. And besides, it doesn't take too much time than it seems to be. Just try steadily in the shard of your free time and it'll make you much better about what you want.

Well the last 5th one, this is my personal thing and I don't tell you that you may follow me and try. The singing, one of my favorite hobby, can be a little salt in the chicken soup named "My life". I love this though I can't sing well, and this makes me just happy that I can work enormously overloaded works. "Tribute" sung by Tenacious D is the song that I like the most, though even I can't play any instruments yet.

I chose this five things to my personal life priorities, and now I can say the necessity of realizing public rules of my life. I will have to think and remember my relatives, friends, and everyone I know.
Thanks to Prof. Joe about giving such a good chance to search the salt of my life! :D

sincerely.
Park Min-Ho

1.positive thinking
2.good company
3.money
4.healthy
5.use my time better


I think that one of the most important factors in life is positive thinking. Positive thinking can be useful in life for this reason. It is better for getting good results. this is due to the fact that Positive thinking helps us cope with them more wisely and calmly. Moreover, positive thinking brings positive results.
It is so important to keep good company. I have many friends and I consider most of them good friends actually. I think that friends can play a significant role in forming one's personality and they are the foundation of my life. This is attributed to the fact that good friends are in deference in each other and help each other whenever they fall into adversity.
A large number of people miight argue that money is not the most important thing in life because It distract people from work and It can make people irrational. On the contrary popular belief , I think that Money is one of the essential elements in life. It is obvious that money can enable one to do a lot of things and make one feel comfortable.
Health is important thing too. Heath makes us active and happy.
Let;s say we have a lot of money, so we can buy anything except health. That is why i think health is the most important.
The last thing is use my time better. I always plan my schedule to achieve my goals. Actually..... I didn't put a plan into practice. Also I really disappointed myself. So I need to use my time bettr to achieve what I want.

My life priorities are;

1.enjoying my life
2.having a dream.
3.love
4.health and money

All people have own life priorities. So i think about my life priorities.
First of all,I wanna enjoy my life. I think we all have own life only one. Almost people want to be happy and nobody can substitute for me. Therefore, I try to enjoy and find something to make me feel happy.
If i face some badthing in my life, i can more positively get over it by that experience.
Second, Having a dream is the most important thing for enjoying own life. even just have a dream and goal, we can get a motivation to live. Dream makes me active and passionate. Also I can learn and develope my self through reachin a goal. Therefore, even I have a trifling dream and don't achieve a goal, I think that is more valuable for me.
Third, we can't live alone.Many people think that family and friends are property and very important.I think it is true. I love them and can't do anything without them.I think love is a essential factor in my life.I feel comfortable in my home. my parents and brother trust me and give a strength. I believe that they think that,too. someday,when I'll love some guy and make a good family(It's a one of my dreams.),I'll do the best for my family. Also my friends,when i meet my frends, I really fun and sometimes I can get more precious things through relationship with my friends. good memories and new experience. I love them and they are my important part of my life.
Finally, I think health and money are basic things in life. just enough to live. That is a important factor to enjoy my life and love,have a dream. I always try to keep these in my mind.
Thank you for reading it!:)

My life priorities are:

1. true friend
2. passion
3. eat a lot
4. read books
5. learning new things

I think the most important thing in my life is some of my true friends. I can't live my life without them. When I feel sad, they always be with me and make me laugh. To me, my friends are my everything I have.
And passion is like my energy source that makes me do anything eagerly and makes me happy. Because of passion, I can be energetic and feel confidence.
Also, eating a lot of food is one of the important things in my life. There are millions of delicious food in the world. But life is too short to eat all of them. So enjoy food whatever I want is very important.
I like reading books and I also think it is important. I can travel all around the world, get advise from good people and feel sad or happy through books. In addition, books make me a better person.
Learning new things are also important in my life. There's a lot of new experiences I haven't tried yet. And it's always exciting learning new things. I can promote myself and feel proud.

My life priorities are:
1. Family
2. Health
3. Music
4. Friend

I think that the most important thing is family. I have parents and two younger sisters.. It’s a large family in modern society. They are important and valuable friends to me. I can't live without my family. In the future, I will live close to my parents’ home at any cost. It is unthinkable that I live separated from my parents. When I get out of my home, I always miss my mom. Family is the most important to me. Whatever I do, my parents will support me all the way. But I think that I’m not a amenable daughter. So I keep trying to be a good girl!

I also think that health is very important. Keeping myself in good health is not easy. I frequently get a cold and food poisoning. I think that the level of immunity is bound to drop when the body weakens. So I try to strengthen my immunity and have breakfast in the every morning. This is not difficult so much. When I was sick, I wanted give up everything. However when I was in good condition, I was in full of drive in everything. Therefore healthy physical condition is very important.

My hobby is singing with playing the piano. I like to play the piano. Because when I play the piano, I have peace in my mind. Music is the third important thing. When I was a 13 years old, I listened to music with my friend. That time I listened woman’s voice. I thought that her voice was so unique. And the pop song was fabulous. So I’m interested in pop music, quickly. The woman is a Britney Spears, the world famous singer. Her life was not always fair and easy, though. But she overcame a crisis after all. So she gives a hope to many wounded people through music. In this way, Music is really awesome.

And the last thing is friends. This is not just a companion but a true friend. I think that having a true friend is very difficult. True friend is so precious that no one can compare to any other thing. Thus, friendship is more valuable than many treasures. The only one friend who believes me is much more worthy than a large number of friends.

My life priorities are:

1.Carrying out my mission
– Christian missionary kids school teacher.
2.Filling my future home with love as a wife and a mother.
3.Challenging the worthy something.

My first priority is carrying out my mission – Christian missionary kids school teacher, my dream. I think that all people was born special talents not a small number of special people, but all !! people. But, the important thing depends upon knowing that “I’m the only one, I’m the special” Moreover, we have to develop it. My special talent is to love and teach kids. Whenever I see kids, my heart beats faster. I want to live like the Jesus. Therefore, I want to take care of disadvantaged kids. I’d like to laugh and cry with them.

Next, It is to be a lovely wife and a wised mother. In my opinion, it is very important to our life. The family forms the foundation the happiness. Also, the family is society in miniature. Nowadays, I’m studying “The Family Seminar”. Through it, I learn the role of mother. So, I ‘d like to be a lovely wife and wised mother.

Finally, I want to live valuable life by challenging the worthy something. Everyone is given a single life.
And, people say that life is a drama. When a drama was over, the estimation about the story is not by money, status, honor but by sincere value. As a result, I hope to be a writer that knows sincere value and live it.

3. My wonderful dream or hope.


The most important thing is my family which means now's and future's. Sometime, their nitpicking makes me depressed but I know it's for me. So, I can feel their love while I am being scolded. Some days I will make own my family. I think every my hope is related in my future family. I want to make a lot of money which will be spent for my husband and babies. I want to meet best man for my husband who will be good father and parter. Second is friends. In my opinion, family is for making mine. Friends, on the other hand, is for sharing memories. Someone said "Past is just the past. It is not important." But I don't think so. Past made me who I am. That means my friends have been making me. So, I include my friends in my important list. The last thing is my dream and hope. Do you know what it means? I don't want to stay now but go forward step by step. I will make my future much better than now. The things which raise me up is my dream and hope. (However, I already know I should thank to happiness of now.)
You wonder why there is just three in the list, don't you? Making a lot of money, getting good jobs and others could be the important things for someone, but they are just means, not important things to me. That is why I wrote just three.

setting priorities is important in life. Here is my life priorities.

1.personal happiness.
2.family.
3.get along with the people around me.
4.to have hopefor future
5.heath


My first life priority is personal happiness.
I tink personal happiness is most important thing in my life. We cannot buy happiness even with the money. Wealth is no guarantee of happiness. The rich are not always happy.If i'm not happy, wealth is useless.It is important to find personal happiness come from small things.

secondly, family is important and valuable in my life.my family is always on my side when I'm in the difficult situation. If I didn't have family,I wouldn't have been grow up this much.family has a great influence on my life.Especially, my parents make me want to be a better person.

Third, to get along with the people around me.My family and friends are part of life.Threfore,To get along with people around me is important for me.famous poet,John Donne said " No man is an island.Everyone should have a person,who talk about problems.if you have no one to talk to about your problems,That make you depressed.And sharing your thought with other people makes your life happy.To get along with the people around you can improve the quality of life.

To have a hope for the future is the motive power of life. Life without hope doesn't mean anything. When you are facing a hard reality, you can get over hard reality with a hope for future.

Finally, health is important thing in mylife. I can't do anything .We cannot buy happiness with the money just like happiness.We can do anything when we are healthy. Therfore,We should keep our health while we still have it.

My life priorities are:

1. myself
2. people I belong to
3. the moment
4. love
5. smile

I like myself and have to do. I mean I am always first than others. It does not mean selfish man. The man must have own ideas, health, smie, ability and so on. If so, we are not easily collapsed on the bitter trials.

Second, we can not live without people, sometimes they give me so much stress though. When I had been under hard timet, they are really helpful. It is the most important thing, but I frquently forget about it.

Third, the moment before death. This moment will tell me that "Am I good or bad." I don't want to have my final hour with a nurse.

Fourth, love. I usually dream in my 70's life. I'll have lots of wrinkles with a walking stick. But, it's alright, if I'll be with my lovely wife.

Finally, smile. Smile can change lots of things than you thought. It is based on positive attitude. Positive attitude makes positive results, as well. Whenever I want to get goals, I normally think positively. I believe the power of positive. To be positive everyone :-)

My life priorities are:

1. Keep good company
2. Learn something new
3. Leave me to pick up the slack
4. Enjoy the cultural life
5. Get enough money

I think that it is important for me to keep good company. People cannot live alone. When I was travelling in Australia by myself, the whole thing was smooth sailing. I saw the beautiful scenery, but it was nothing more than a view at that time. Because there was not somebody who divided it with. There is a famous proverb, ‘Shared joy is double joy and shared sorrow is half-sorrow’. And My friends are always by my side, even if I choose the wrong way.

It is always fun to learn something new. Also it makes me enhance my creativity and prevents me from becoming lazy. Every year I make the list what I want to learn. Actually I am learning rock climbing this year. It is amazing that I can support my body by my fingers.

We live in a competitive society that everyone wants to be above one another. So many people who live in it die of the stress. If they found a small peace to overcome this pressure, life would be different. Leave me to pick up the slack. That is definitely not a hard thing. Just relax and take my time, have a chat with my friends, grab a beer and take a trip suddenly. It is really no big deal what I am talking about.

It is exciting to go to the concert hall, museum and some places where I can enjoy the cultural life. Going to the concert is good for stress relief. Because the sound effects of the concert make my heart beat too fast. And while I watch a movie at the theater, I can be a main character. I think that enjoying the cultural life can broaden my knowledge of the world.

To do all this things, I have to get enough money. I think money can make a person's life a misery or happiness. Even when I get coffee, I have to pay.

That is my priorities.

My life priorities are:
1. Have a positive mind.
2. Spending time with family.
3. Collecting pictures.
4. Going on a trip.
5. Saving money.

The most important thing I think in my life is to have a positive mind. Most people hopes to live happily their lives. But, we experience various situations that sometimes make our sad, tired and angry during living. It often frustrates our. I have found that we have to have positive thinks to overcome it to be happy. Happy depends on what kinds of think I have. I believe I can be more happy through the positive mind although there are a few hardships in ahead of me.

It is also important to spend time with my family. I think that family is the most close relationship to me. They support and believe me at any time. Before I graduated from the high school, I didn't feel a family's value. And, I left my home as soon as I passed my college entrance examination. After leaving from family, I used to cry because of the fact that I couldn't see my family every day and spend joyful time with them. I have lived alone from at the time and go back my home twice a month. I try to spend quality time in going out for dinner and going a hiking with them whenever I have free time or go to my home. They give me a comfortable feeling that makes me relax.

A next priority I think is to collect pictures. Time flies like an arrow. So, I want to leave the record of my life. I quite often carry my camera. I take pictures when I am at pleasant moments. Then, I make an album that includes my figures dancing, eating delicious foods, going on a trip, going out with boyfriend, etc. The album is like a precious treasure to me.

And, I would like to go on a trip. I enjoy to visit various places and see a wide world. It is a valuable activity. Whenever I have enough time, I have been to a few places in korea. Jeju is a place I remember the most. The backpacking trip is scheduled for a week. My friends and I met many people and did some sightseeing. There were the beautiful shorelines I had looked forward to viewing. After some traveling, I often feel that I gain some invaluable experience through the trips and also become more confident about myself. And, Trips give me the opportunity of recharge myself from a tiring reality.

Last of all, saving money. Some people spend money without forethought. I did, too. I used to spend much money without planning! I had to change the bad habit. I couldn't live easily on a tight budget. Also, I began to feel the stress because I couldn't buy something I need. So, I have tried to save money to beat the stress from money and spend money when I want to spend for buying clothes, eating out for dinner, going on a trip and dating my boyfriend. That's why saving money is important.

The five things is the priorities in my life. Thank you ^.^

I think that the most important thing in my life is happiness. Maybe I think most of people think like that. Happiness is the most common word that we heard in our lives but, it is difficult to live happy. I think the happiness is depends to each person and situation. I think if we can feel happy when we do anything, that is success. In my case, I like to travel. When I go to travel to any countries that I want to go, I feel happy. Also, I like babies and enjoy being with children. When I'm taking care of babies and playing with children at volunteer work, I feel happy.
I think health is also the most important thing. we can do anything well by using our all energy when we are healthy. If I'm not healthy, I can't do my work well. I felt health's importance even today. I'm very tired today so, I didn't participate in a class actively. Also, I couldn't use all of my English ability. I think family and friends are my life's vitamin and thankful bridge. If I have a difficulty, they can be a helper. Also, I can received energy that I can make it from them. If I become a English teacher that I always wanted, I would be happy and feel worth of my life. Also, I think it is success because I achieved my dream that I want to be. I think it is success to do that I wanted to do. Last, If I have enough money that I can accomplish my wishes, I think it is one of the happiness.

my priorities.

1.have a good job
2.make a good friend.
3.enjoy everything that I do
4.traveling
5.diet

In my case, good job is the best important thing in my life. Job helps my life smooth. If I get a job that I really wanted, it gives me a satisfaction also !! Job decides my whole life, therefore It deserves to struggle to have a good job.

Next is good friends. I think good friends are vitamins in my life. If I have a trouble or have lots of stress, I can get rid of them with my friends. Good friends makes my life more happy and pleasant.

I always try to enjoy everything that I do. Usually, I had a frowning face and complaint If I should do what I don't want. However, I realized. If I can't avoid doing that, It's better to enjoy ! Now, I always try to be positive. It 's my motto of life.

I think experiences are important point in life. Traveling is the best way to have experiences. We can meet many new people and places. It will make us adventure, therefore our mental will be mature.

I can't give up a diet. All of woman, including me, wants to have a slim body. Especially, korean woman are crazy about skinny body. that's why I can't stop working out.


I'm really sorry for late Joe teacher !!

My life priorities are:

1. family
2. friend
3. music

I think that the most important thing is family. I have parents and two younger brothers and younger sister. my younger sister is only 6 years old. she’s so cute and lovely. she is happiness to our family. In my case, my family is always on my side when I'm in the difficult situation.

Secondly, friends are very important to me. I can't live my life without them. they are very funny. When I feel sad, they always be with me and make me laugh.

Third, my hobby is listening to the music. I don’t care whatever music’s genre. my favorite singer is big bang in korea. they are enough famous singer in the world. and my favorite singer is Maroon 5. their music makes me exciting.

I'm sorry that I had a lot of mistakes and it was so late.
