How have you been on weekend?

I went to wedding ceremony of friend in Seoul.

It took half three hours by public bus from Daegu to Seoul.

Centainly, KTX train is more faster than the bus but I used by bus because It's comfortable in chair.

The seat of KTX is uncomfortable.

I was the first to come in wedding ceremony among friends.

the ceremony was finished and we went to have food.

The food was not good. It tasted bad. Honestly, It was awful.

I came back home by bus again.

I was tired a lot

My teacher is a American. His parents are Korean. How do i say this?

Anyway, Usually we study English this time but today we heard his story of life.

The story is suprised. It's a amazing story. He showed his facebook.

He has a daughter. The baby is one year old and so cute.

He got married 2 years ago in Las Vegas. His wife is also Korean.

I asked him 'how did you meet your wife?' He said 'I met her in church' We are christian.'

He said that he came to Korea to take realx.

He was in business a lot in America.

He promoted concert of famous singer.

He made stage and sold tickets so got money a lot.

He showed pictures with famous singers. pharrell, fat joe, DJ drama, so on...

I was interested because I usually like to listen hiphop music. It was cool..

And then he showed his lake house. It was great.

We was envy. We asked him 'Why do you come Korea? why do you teach English in Korea? '

He said 'He came Korea to take care health because his wife is Korean'


Thanks

Exact(corretly) english and wrong english.

Whlie I learn English, that I exactly use English is need to efforts very much.

When I talked with someone, I say wrong words and sentences but
the someone understand for me

at that time, I will be misunderstand. It's definitely wrong English and Konglish.

While conversation, It's not easy to correct my English.

After finished conversation, I have to consider and look for the English correct or not.

Hi John,

Today, I have some questions.

Sometimes, I listen to contents to study English for listening.

One day I listened(heard) one word from the contents but I couldn't understand it.

That sounds strange(unfamiliar) to me.

Can you say that mean after you listen to the sound and a word?

I don't have the script and there is only sound.

I was a sick at stomach for days.

I wrote to go buffet a few days ago.

Tha next day, I woke up early in the morning 3:00 AM because i felt like vommit.

I was vommit all. It felt bad.

I vomiited all food last night.

I went to work and I felt bad because I was a sick at stomach.

I went to drugstore and bought medicine and had it.

I came back home and took rest.

Fortunatly, It was on weekend and i have time to take rest.

I think that that the cause is i had the one among foods that i had.
(내가 먹었던 음식중 하나가 원인인 것 같아요.)

Today, this is on sunday. I'm okay. I got over all.
