Dear my Teacher Paula, A good day to you! ^^ Here in Korea, it is raining now, and it makes me feel cold. I think because of this rain, a colony of cherry blooms would be gone soon. Fortunately, I already enjoyed those to the fullest, but somehow, I feel regretful that the flower of life is so short. By the way, did you have a wonderful weekend? In my case, I wanted to go to a zoo with my boyfriend on last Saturday, but by the time we arrived there, a large number of cars had lined up waiting to park on the road. We guessed that it would take more than an hour to get in the zoo, so we gave up going there. Fortunately, a racecourse park was near the zoo, so we changed our final destination to the racecourse park. This place was not that crowed in comparison to the zoo, so we could park a car without any difficulties. We didn't mean to put money on a horse, but since we got there, we could not resist the temptation. I am not a bold person, so I bet $1 per game only with entertainment. As a result, the horse that I chose was in the top three of the race, so I could win a double prize against the amount that I bet. I was disappointed with myself who didn't bet much money. At that time, I became a greedy woman suddenly. Hahaha! I suddenly realized that if someone can't control himself or herself under this circumstance, racecourse would be a risky gambling. I saw a lot of middle-aged men betting money there, and some of them have already fallen into addiction to a gambling. It was a pity to see those kinds of people. Anyway, see you this evening! ^^

Dear my Loveable Student [이름],

 

A hot Tuesday to me, and a wonderful day to you! ^.^

 

Well, it\'s really hot here on Baguio City, Philippines.

It feels like it is 30 degrees Celsius.

Whew! What a sweating weather! T.T

 

By the way, I had a very tiring weekend, but I enjoyed it a lot.

Last Saturday, I had a hot pot appointment.

It was from 2 pm until 11 pm.

Hahaha! ^^

Sadly, because of that I had to cancel my appointment with another friend.

Fortunately, I was really lucky not to meet her, because she was with her friends whom I don\'t know.

In addition, they spent their time together by drinking, so my friend was so drunk.

Last Sunday, she told me that she had a hangover because of too much consumption of alcohol when she met her friends.

She also said that it would have been better if I was with them, but I don\'t think like that.

I don\'t want to be very drunk these days.

Honestly, I don\'t want to drink any kinds of liquor nowadays.

I need to have a healthy living.

Hahaha! ^^

 

Anyway, last Sunday, I just stayed home.

I ate a lot of food with my family.

My mother somehow scolded me from spending a lot for food on that day.

However, I didn\'t really care about it, because she also enjoys eating with me.

I bought some ice cream, bread and snacks.

It was really a terrific eating day.

 

Anyhow, if I were you, I would also feel greedy that time that I somehow won.

I think I will be an addict in relation to racecourse activities.

I easily get attracted to things that will give amusement to me.

So, I don\'t attempt to go to those places, because I know my weakness.

I can\'t resist the temptation and the entertainment that I can get from that activity.

 

That\'s all for now! ^^

Happy reading! ^^,

See you tomorrow! ^^.

 

... Teacher Paula ... ^.~
