Today I played basketball with my friends. It has been long time not playing basketball with my friends, so I was kind of happy. I met them in Kissena park which is located in Qeens. I rode bus and took lirr. After playing basketball, I went to Diner with my friends. I ate a hamberger and franch onion soup which are my favorite. While I enjoyed dinner with my friends, we talked about college lives. One of my friends goes to Qeens college and another friend goes to St. Johns University. I heard that they are having good time. After talking about college, I really want to pass the test. I have to study more... I had fun today.

Today I was so tired because I helped my sister's study. She is going to take SAT's exam on May 3rd. Although she came to the U.S., her English is not good as me. Also, she hates math, but math part is very important part of SAT's exam. I helped her especially on math questions. This is the first time taking SAT's exam to her. However, when I see her, she does not look nervous rather I feel nervous instead of my sister. I hope my sister gets good scores on the test but I do not look forward that much though.

Last weekend I moved to my uncle's house because my parents went to Korea. My parents went to Korea because of my grandmother's illness. I don't exactly know when they are going to come back, but I hope that my grandmother's health gets better and my parents come back soon. These days, I feel kind of nervous because of the placement test. Only few days left before the test. I will do my best, but I am still not sure... I am just looking forward to pass the test...

Today I think about who the happiest person in this world.
Many people want to be happy. In order to be happy, people do many different things. For instance, some people try to be happy through earning a lot of money so they can afford to do anything they want.However, although people have a lot of money, they are not satisfied. If you see celebrities, they do many wired things, such as drug, have an affair, etc, even though they have lots of money. Money cannot make people to be happy because people have insatiable desires. In my opinion, the happiest person in this world is a person who can receive thankfulness as thankfulness. Many people do not receive thankfulness as thankfulness. For example, people use hot water, and if it does not work, people complain about it. In the other hands, if there is a person who takes a shower with cold water every day, one-day hot water is working. Is the person not happy? Of course, the person is happy. If people thought about it, they would find thousand ways to be happy. I heard about a man who is a condemned criminal. Before his execution day, everything is beautiful and thankful to him seeing sunrise, listening to the sounds of birds, and even breathing. Likewise, people can be happy any time anywhere. Any person whoreceives thankfulness as thankfulness that person is the happiest person in this world.

Actually I planed to write an essay but I did not have enough time to think more about it. So, I wrote body part and conclusion..
The Ways
People live their lives studying, earning money, and raising their children. People live their lives in many different ways. For example, some people raise their children very strict but some are not. Despite the fact that there are many different ways, we can categorize them into two major groups. One group holds a path where everyone goes, and the other is where no one goes. The path where everyone goes is easy to follow and limited. On the other hand, the path where no one goes seems vague and impossible. Moreover, sometimes, people have to give up what they have to walk the path. Nevertheless, the way that no one goes looks risky and unsafe to walk, but this is the way, which improves people's lives and gives better quality of people's lives.
The path that no one goes seems impossible to become true, but because of people who walk this path, people can live better quality of lives. Wright brothers are people who walked this path. These days, many people use an airplane when they travel to other cities, states, and countries. It is a fact that the airplane improves the quality of people's lives. Long time ago, people thought and believed that it was impossible to people that humans could fly. However, there were two brothers dreamed to fly. They were Wright brothers, Wilbur Wright and Orville Wright, who invented the airplane. When they tried to make the airplane in order to fly, many people mocked then because they thought it was impossible to fly. Despite the people's thoughts and expectations, the Wright brothers succeeded in making the airplane. The Wright brothers walked the path where no one goes; as a result, people can live better life.
In addition, the path no one goes is simple and obvious but only after it has been explained. If we ask people, run a hundred miles per an hour, and breathe in the sea, they may say, "no" without any doubt. However, if people think differently, these things are very simple and obvious. People can run a hundred miles per hour by car, and breathe in the sea by a submarine. After explaining, it is easy to do, but it is very hard to think differently from others. There is one more example. Long ago, there was a person named Columbus. One day, he claimed that he could stand an egg on its end without any tools or aids. At that time, everybody said that is impossible and nonsensical, but he did. He just tapped an egg on the table and an egg stand on its end. After that, people said that they could do that if they tapped it on the table. Ironically, the path seems very hard and vague; but it is very easy and simple. Everybody can think but not everyone can accomplish these things.
Occasionally, people have to sacrifice and give up themselves in order to walk the path where no one goes. Bill Gates is one of the most famous people in the world. Today, he is a billionaire; however, he sacrificed himself gave his college studies up in some ways to be in that position. He enrolled at Harvard College, yet he did not graduate. He quit his college studies because he had a plan, a dream. When he decided to quit school, many people would have said that he is crazy, but he walked the path that he chose even though the path looked impossible. After all, he succeeded and he became a person whom everyone wants to be: a hero.
In conclusion, the path that no one goes looks impossible, yet because of the people who walked that path people can live batter lives. By walking the path, people improve the quality of their lives, and live more convenient lives. Although the path looks impossible, people have to sacrifice themselves and sometimes, it is too obvious to realize the answer. Because of the people who walked the path, such as the Wright Brothers and Bill Gates people can live better lives. Furthermore, I believe if there is no one to walk the path, there is no past, present, and future. Because of these people, people can live more convenient and enhanced lives.

A Word
A careless word causes fight
A cruel word ruins one's life
A bitter word spreads a seed of hatred
An impolite word blows out the flame of love
A graceful word gives peace
A pleasant word brightens a day
A proper word eases the tension
A lovely word gives blessing
For a callous word one becomes an enemy
For a warm word one becomes a friend
