About Dokdo

This days, many Japanese says Dokdo is their land and they call it 'Dakesima'. But I think this is wrong fact because Dokdo is Korea, our land. And we call it 'Dokdo'.
If you can't believe it, I'll say about the grounds for Dokdo.Please read it and think about that Dokdo is Korea's land.

Then, why do they say that Dokdo is their land? According to my reaserch, around the Dokdo, there are lots of plankton, fishes, and lots of marin lifes are live in surround the Dockdo. And it also called, 'fertile fishing ground'. Most of, many of the people in the world don't know about that Korea has Japanese Ruling Era in 'The Second World War'.In the Japanese Ruling Era, Japanese government says that Dokdo is deserted island and they included Dokdo in their land. And nowadays,, in 21st century,they says that is not violate the world rule. But in this opinion, I can't agree with Japanese government because there are little bit strange problem in the Japanese and Korean history about Dockdo.

Then, I'll say about the reason that Dokdo is our land in history.
1. In 세종실록지리지(it is the book that public in the Joseon Dynasty.),they says that Dokdo is include in our land. Oh, I think you believe it is just our opinion, and it is not true. But this book is the most correct book and it is the most precious thing in the Korea. And in 삼국사기(it is the book that published in Sila Dynasty) says that 'Dokdo was included in june, Jijeong King 13.'. And in 신증동국여지승람(it was published in 1531, in Jeung Jong) says that Dokdo is our land. And even at the Japanese Data that punlished in 1697, January, they says that Dokdo is Korea's land and they say it is illegality to catch the fish in the Dokdo. But nowadays, they says Dokdo is Japan's land. I think they have to think about the historic reason about Dockdo.

2. In 통함일람 that published in 1851 in Japan, they says Dokdo is Korea's land.

3.Nowadays in Japan, they says that Dokdo is our land becuase Dokdo is close by Japan then Korea. But, think about the Ullengdo, Dokdo is our land 'cause it is most close in the Korea.

I hope that people in the world reconize that Dokdo is Korea's land and to Japanese government, Dokdo is our land and do not distort Korean's history after all. Dokdo is Korea's land!!

Social Networking's negative and postive affects

These days, a growing number of people are using social networking websites such as Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter. Even many teenagers and children have their own accounts. These websites are helpful in many ways. You can keep in touch with your friends and relatives easily. You can also make new friends and meet new people online through these social networking pages. However, there are some negative aspects as well.

It is true that social networking service (SNS) have many positive aspects. It is a great way to stay connected with people. You can upload your pictures and write stories about your daily life on your page. You can also visit your friends’ websites to see how they are doing. Through social networking websites, you can contact with people anytime, anywhere.
SNS also helps you stay connected with the world. You can get useful information very quickly from them. For example, Twitter and Facebook were very useful for the people in Japan when the country was hit by a mega earthquake and tsunami on March 11. They got information about the situation quickly through these websites.
However, as everything has both bright and dark sides, SNS has some negative sides as well. When using social networking websites, you have to be very careful. This is because social media consists of personal information. Your personal information can be misused for bad purposes by bad people. Therefore, you should not provide important information to these websites. Do not post your personal information, address or cell phone number. You should change your passwords often, too.
Social networking websites are often used to harass people, too. Some teens leave mean messages on the web pages of people they don’t like. It can lead to serious problems. The victims can suffer from depression. In severe cases, some teens even try to kill themselves.

In addition, some teens can also suffer from low self-esteem just by looking at other people’s Facebook web pages. If they don’t receive many friend requests, they feel sad, lonely, and depressed. This is because they think they are not popular like other people.
SNS can be very useful in many ways, but we should be careful in using social networking sites. Spending too much time on the websites is not very good for your mental and physical health. Let’s use them constructively rather than destructively!

What do you do when you are angry?

Everyone gets angry sometimes. In fact, anger is one of our important feelings. It is perfectly OK to be angry from time to time. Anger can be a good thing because it helps you stand up for yourself when you are treated unfairly. However, anger is a very strong feeling and it should be released in the right way. Otherwise, it can hurt yourself and others. This week, let’s learn how to deal with your anger.

1) Don’t say anything
When you are angry, you may want to yell at someone. But it can hurt someone’s feelings and ruin your relationship with the person. Instead of screaming, say nothing when you are angry. If you can remain silent, it gives time for the emotion of anger to leave you. The third President of the U.S., Thomas Jefferson, once said that “When angry, count to 10 before you speak. If very angry, count to 100.”

2) Breathe deeply
When angry, close your eyes for a moment and take a deep breath. It will help remove your anger a little bit. Then, try to think about something which will make you happy. For example, thinking about a fun vacation or your favorite singer can make you feel better. Also, try to focus on something completely different.

3) Be logical and rational
Use reason to stop your anger. Before losing your temper, try to be rational and think logically about the aftermath. Take a step back and say to yourself: “This anger will not help me in any way. It will only make the situation worse.” If you want to talk about your anger to someone, then talk to a friend you can trust.

4) Go out to get some fresh air
Don’t just sit at your desk, thinking about the person who made you angry. Go out for a walk and get some fresh air. You can get rid of your anger by doing something active. Just give it a try. It is really effective.Riding a bike or playing basketball will make you feel much better!

5) Do something that makes you happy
Listening to your favorite music, watching a fun movie, playing a fun video game, or singing out loud can help relieve your anger. Meditation is also very helpful. Practice meditation regularly to bring your inner peace. Famous Indian spiritual teacher and philosopher, Sri Chinmoy, once said that we should value peace more than anger. He said, “You may have every right to be angry with someone, but you know that by getting angry with him, you will only lose your precious peace of mind.”
