Photo essay
Do you have any dreams? Being a lawyer, diplomat, teacher... The career I want is a lawyer or a diplomat, but I have another small dream. Besides the 'realistic' careers for my future, me and my friends have a plan. After we get our fixed jobs, or even if we fail in getting jobs, then, we are going to open a cafe. So, my theme is cafe. The 7 pictures I'm going to describe is about the cafe I want.
The cafe I would like to have, is not just an ordinary cafe. It is a cat cafe. There will be cats inside the cafe. Me and my friends all love cats. We usually go play in a cat cafe in MyungDong, and we all very like it. So, in our cafe, we've decided to also put cats in. I would attract many customers. With cats, you can see their cute faces, and the cats are very friendly. The fur is smooth and soft, and in my case, it releases my stress too.
Pink, white, brown, yellow, red, blue...
Many colors catches your eyes. Those cool, sweet, tasty balls of ice creams are very attracting. It melts slowly in your mouth, leaving the sweetness, making you feel happy. It goes well with some brownie cakes as well, and I really like warm brownies with ice cream. It really has a great combination. Hot and cold mixed together, making a unique texture.
In my cafe, I would turn some music on. Usually the calm, soothing ones like new-age music. I think it is really nice when you have a cup of coffee, sweet desserts and listen to some piano. It really makes you feel comfortable and relaxed.
So, these are my 7 photos,related to my future dream. I, my self, enjoy going to the cafe, and talk with my friends. Cafe is a place where people can enjoy a little free time in between their busy days. I think the 7 photos, are some criterion that I would like to see in a cafe in my taste. Which is why, I would like to add these in to my own cafe.

This is a picture of a cafe, and it has similar design as to what I want my cafe to look like. It is mostly wood, such as the walls, chairs and tables. I like wood, because it makes me feel cozy and warm. I'm quite certain that people would also feel the warmth. As you step in, dim orange lights would light up the cafe, and you would smell the coffee and the sweet desserts. Once you sit on the comfortable wooden chair with a cushion, you will feel very cozy and relaxed.

My favorite one. I love chocolates. There are many shapes and kinds, and every one of them are fabulous. Chocolates also have different tastes, like strawberry chocolate. I've ate one before, and it was like wonderland. It was really sweet and unique. Chocolates are a perfect match with coffees too. Bitter chocolates goes well with sweet coffee like caramel latte, and sweet chocolates goes well with some bitter coffee like americano.
There are many types of desserts you can make with chocolate, such as brownies.

My friend is very good in making cakes, and they are absolutely amazing. Fresh cream, chocolate, strawberry... It has many colors, which really affects people's eyes, making them want to eat one. They are so sweet, and tasty. The combination of cream and soft bread is really good. I love the feeling when the cream swirls in my mouth.

The Princess Bride-movie review
I watched a movie called The Princess Bride.
+3.jpg)
![]()
I've heard of this movie before, so I presumed that it was famous, and good. But I kind of think differently now. Before moving on to my opinion, I will introduce the movie a little. The genre of this movie, is Comedy, Romance, Adventure and Fantasy. this movie has all those genres mixed together. The main characters are Princess Buttercup, Westley and Prince Huperdinck.
Buttercup, falls in love with Westley. However, they didn't have enough money to get married. So, Westley went out to the sea to earn money. Buttercup was waiting for him, until she heard the news that Westley was killed by a pirate. When Buttercup hears the news, she decides not to love anyone again. A few years later, Buttercup is chosen as the bride of Prince Humperdinck. Eventually, she becomes a princess. Though she was the fiancee of the Prince Humperdinck, she never loved him. One day, she was horse riding, and she gets kidnapped. The kidnappers were Vizzini, Inigo and Fezzick. Vizzini was a small smart man, who was like the leader. Inigo was a Spanish man, looking forward to revenge on his father. The last one, Fezzik, was a giant, a little dumb. So they kidnapp her. But they find out that they were being followed by a man dressed in all black costume. All three of the kidnappers challenges him, but he wins them all. Prince Humperdinck was also looking for the missing princess.
Anyway, the black man and the Princess Buttercup talks, and find out that the black man is Westley. Princess Buttercup falls in love with him again. At last, they get caught by Prince Humperdinck. Princess begs him to save Westley, but Prince Humperdinck sends him to the Pit of Despair, tortures him, and kills him. Whilst, Inigo becomes really upset because he can't revenge on his father's death. The one who killed his dad was the Prince's right arm, Count Rugen. Fezzick goes with him, and Inigo decides to go to find the black man, Westley. But he finds out that Westley is dead. So he brings Westley to the previous king's magician, Miracle Max. Miracle Max gives Westley a cure, It was a type of medicine, and Miracle Max tells them to feed it after 50 minutes, that would allow Westley to be alive 'fully'. But because they are in a hurry, they just gave him the medicine not waiting. In result, only his consciousness was back. His body was all floppy. This was a comedy part. It was really funny. Anyhow, that day was Prince Humperinck and Princess Buttercup's wedding day. Westley and his friends break into the castle, and... If you want to know more about it, watch it your self!!
Personally, I didn't quite know what this movie was. It was really confusing. However, I liked the way the movie is introduced in the first scene and onwards. How the grandfather read this book to his grandson. I thought this idea is good. But overall, I don't really like this movie, because the story develops really fast. Like how it only takes a few minutes for Buttercup to realize that the black man is actually Westley, her lover who she thought to be dead 5 years ago. The adventure was nice and exciting, such as the one they had in the forest. I also think that it may have been better if they focus on one main genre or two.
I am guessing that what the movie was trying to tell the people, was about love. How you should never give up love like Princess Buttercup did in the movie. And they talked a lot about true love. So, I guess they are saying that true love is stronger than anything else. In short, I think it was good, but it wasn't so good, but it wasn't bad either. If i were to rate it, I would give about 3 out of 5.

3 things I know to be true
Hi! My name is Michelle, and I will quiz you on 3 things about me. I will give you 2 numbers and 1 equation. You just have to guess what they actually mean. They are: 7, 8 and 2008+2009+2010+2011+2012+2013=8. But since the first two numbers are hard to guess, I'll give you some hints. The number '7' is about music and my hobby. The number '8' is about something I like to watch on TV. Good luck in guessing!
The number '7' means that I play 7 instruments in total. Piano, Violin, Clarinet, drum, a little saxophone, recorder and basic gayageum. I've learnt them mostly in my previous school. I played the piano for the longest time. I played it for almost 11 years. I enjoy playing instruments, and I also like learning them. I want to learn guitar now. I think it is a a very fascinating instrument.
The number '8' represents the number of American dramas I watch. I love American dramas, especially the ones related to crimes and investigation. Maybe this is the reason why I am interested in Mock Trials. These 8 of them are my favorites: Bones, NCIS, CSI, Castle, King&Maxwell, Hawaii 5 O', Mentalist and Elementary. I just love it so much. I think they are 'the' most fantastic dramas I've ever watched. Between these 8, I like Bones, Castle and NCIS the best.
The equation 2008+2009+2010+2011+2012+2013=8 means that since year 2008 and until year 2013, I have 8 cats in total in my house. They were all stray cats on street in my home compound. My mum felt pity of them, so one by one, they became a part of my family. And because of them, I am now addicted to cats. Every each on of them are so friendly and cute. Also, the cats in our compound are really friendly to people as well. You won't imagine that they are stray cats. Likewise, the cats in my house all changed a lot, because some of them were scared of people. However, after a period of time, they changed to the most friendly cats.
So those 2 numbers and an equation did actually mean something to me. My hobby, my interest, and my pets. I hope you found it interesting.
