My History
Look at this baby! Was I that small?
According to my mother, this picture was taken in the yard of my house when I was 9 months old. I have just vague memory about that time when I lived the house.
Whenever my friends look at this picture, they make fun of my chubby thighs, which are so fat that they are almost folded. Before I saw them, I thought my overly strout limbs were because I hadn't excercised regularly. Eventually I knew the reason. I was borned that way. ^^
I became a 3-year-old girl. Can you notice that I Iook thinner than before? This picture was taken right after I had got over my illness. I suffered from infant's convulsive fit. My mother told me that my illness was so serious that a docther once warned my parents of my death.
I still remember that I was lying on the bed, naked in a hospital and my whole body was iced over. It must have been really horrible for me and my parents. Becase of my sickness, I had to always have my hair cut short as you can see from the picture and I could not take a picture for my first bithday. sad story, isn't it? However, thank God! I was survived and now I am writing about those moments. How lucky I am!
The cute boy riding a bicycle is my younger brother. When he was young, his nick name was a blubberer, as you can guess, because he cried so easily.
Now he is neither a bubberer nor a cute boy I could control as I pleased. He is a university student whose dream is becoming a good doctor. I love my brother so much. Though he is younger than I, he has more profound and wiser thoughts that I do. I am really happy that he's grown up and I can have the best companion I can talk everything with. Whenever I have some trouble, he always has an answer and encourages me a lot. I'm so proud of him!
Are you wondering why I stand in a weird pose, holding an icecream and a schoolbag? My mother took this picture for fun because the next day was the first school day of mine. That was why I held the bag in my hand. I must have been very excited about a new life in my elementary school.
When I was young, my mom loved to take a picture of me and my brother and she usually asked bizzare,funny poses to us like wearing a tambourine on our head or being disguised as a superman. Now I really thank her for doing that. Those pictures are valuable momories of my childhood. Sometimes, when I visit my hometown, I take them out of my album and talk about them with my mom. The past is always precious because it never comes back.
This was taken at a zoo when I was 9 years old. The girl on my right is a daughter of my mother's friend and the boy on my left is her brother. The youngest boy, who has a so-called "bowl hairstyle" is my brother. How funny is it! This picture is one of my favorites because I think my brother and I were the cutest in it. My smile was natural and innocent different from now. All I had to do was playing with my friends. I miss those times. :)
This picture is of my piano contest. I learned playing the piano for about 7 years. I could appreciate music owing to that from my early age. I quitted it as I became busy in studying. If I'd had a great talent, I'd have continued it. However, I think I was just ordinary.
To be honest, I hated my mother's excessive concerns about my playing the piano. She always cared about whether I practiced it everyday. That was a big burden to me. So, I pretended I was not into it and made her naturally give up her expectations about me. Now my piano just occupies some space in the corner of the living room, losing its owner. My mom still forces me to practice playing the piano so that I cannot forget it, whenever I go to Gwanju. Nobody can't stop her. ^^
This picture was taken on the way to my graduation trip of the middle school. This place is The Independence Hall of Korea in Cheon An. We dropped by here for about three hours. Around The Independence Hall of Korea, there were a lot of sculptures. The sculpture in the picture was one of them.
This is a relatively recent picture of mine. Don't I look a little fat? Actually, I gained my weight by 7 kilograms. I had it taken in my apt. in January to remember how beautiful the night view of Vancouver was. Unfortunately, it doesn't show any background view behind me. Because my apt. was located on the 15th floor, I could have quite a good view. When I was lonely, I used to overlook the ocean, English Bay from the balcony. I miss my stay in Canada.
