5/9 homework

[If you could go back to the past and be given the chance to speak to one important person, who could that person be and why?] If I could go back to the past, I met me when I was a Ph.D student. And I want to say that please be diligent and brave and love myself. I stayed in my university where I graduated for ten years. I entered undergraduate school when I was 20, and I finally graduated doctor course after exactly 10 years. It was very smooth and peaceful, but, sometimes it was boring to me. Especially, when I was a Ph.D student, I was very boring. In Korea, there is a word \"a big fish in a little pond\", it was me. I didn\'t know well the other people working hard at the other university. Even if always the competition is not good, sometimes it makes me upgrade. So, I want to study hard if I can change my past.

Hi [이름]! Thank you for accomplishing your homework. I really appreciate the time you devoted in doing it! ^ ^

I appreciate your thoughts on this one too. ^ ^ I guess we do have a lot of things we would like to change in our past; if only we could go back! ^ ^
