I arrived here in the Philippines last January 2. 2016. When I arrived here. I immediately concluded that this place is kind of hot. I thought that I couldn’t stand living in here. So. I got really nervous on my first day in CIA.

                I don’t want to come here but my mom said that I should come here to learn English well. So I obeyed here.

                I was shy that I thought that I couldn’t make friends with other students but I did. My first friend was Roy. His Korean name is Ryu Geum Seong. He is shy too just like me. We were staying in the same room. We always go somewhere together.

                I don’t want to remember the things that I did here in the Philippines but I couldn’t help it. I had made a lot of memories here. One of my most memorable experiences is going to SM Mall. The mall is really big and I enjoyed shopping there. Second is the speech practice. I couldn’t quite forget it because I hate to be in front of people. I wanted to memorize my speech but every time I am in front. I always forget the words. I don’t know why.

                In the camp. I have learned to speak English better. I don’t feel nervous anymore when I speak English. I guess. this is what my parents wanted me to become that’s why they sent me here. I do feel great now.

                I don’t want to join the camp again because it’s hard to be away from my family for a longer period of time.
