golden week

Hello, last week was golden week. We had no school!!! So at the last week, I went to nowhere. I just stayed at home for the whole week. Because my father was busy.
Last week, my mother decided to go to Korea for two weeks. Of course I'm going too.
How fun is that. So exciting. I'm going on July 30th. There are my friends, cousins, and other people. I really miss them. So that was the most excited things in golden week.
Second thing is I went to Sea Paradise in Yokohama. There was a big dolphin show. It's really cool. I've never seen this big show before. And there was huge shark and it was like 10 meters. I think zoo or aquariums in Japan is better than Korea. I'm not sure of it but
it was almost same level as Disney park. I think this park is also one of biggest in Japan.
The most surprising thing was dolphins understood to their owners, and they were really smart.

Last week was so sad. Because one of Korean biggest ship was sinking.

So now 65 people died and about 230 people are still not found yet.

There were more than 400 people on that ship, and most of them are high school students. They were going school trip to Jeju island, but most of them died.

It's so sad. They are just two or three years older than me. 

The internet says Sewol ship is the biggest cruises. Nobody knows reasons for sinking. I think it's just driving mistake.

But I don't care about reason.

I only care about many people died.

And also I hope this kind of accident must not happen anymore.

So last week all the broadcasting was only for this news and many famouse people 

give money for them, and every SNS and Internet sites was about that news...

so scary. How can that big ferry just sink in the ocean.

He made seven hits in 3 games. He did multi hit for first two games and triple hit for third game.

So Soft Bank won Chiba Lotte, the score was 3:2. Now his batting is 0.583, seven hits at 12 bat.

Last weekend, I saw a Hong kong action movie.There was my favorite action movie star.

About this part, both of them are my favorite movie stars. Originally, they are not actors.

They learned artial arts. Also there are some bloods in here, but I know it is not true so it's not that cruel. Chinese action movie is one of my favorite genre of the movie.This movie is 'SPL' and it's so famous. Chinese action is so cool.

I love movie and I saw a lot of movies but I've never seen cool action except Chinese. Also Chinese name is very similar to Korean. I don't know about that but when I heard Chinese actor's name, I thought maybe that was Korean. But it was Chinese man. 

It was very boring weekend. I just stayed home the whole weekend. My father went golf.

These days so tired. I slept 12 hours yesterday but I'm still sleepy now. Morning is the worst time of my life;;

snow

yesterday, there was 15 cm of snow in Tokyo.
Japanese TV said snow in Tokyo is unusual. It was very big issue in Korea too.
In Korean news, there was Tokyo snow. For Seoul 15 cm is very normal, but my father told me it's not seem any time. I like snow. I played snow fight every winter in Korea.
It's very fun like it was better than PC room or something. I want to play snow fight with my friends. Some times we made igloo. I played my sister yesterday, and I made a huge snow ball for her. That was bigger than her. Actually it was bigger than her. So my back is so hurt now. But today... it was disappeared. Tokyo is so warm. Why snowman melted so fast. it was my first time to touch snow in Tokyo.

By Nam Hyun-woo Criticism stirred against GS Caltex, an oil-refiner using the pipelines which ruptured and spilled a massive amount of oil into the South Sea Friday, for apparently trying to downsize the extent of the accident.The Coast Guard said Monday some 164,000 liters of crude oil was spilled into the waters off the southwestern port city of Yeosu, South Jeolla Province, after a crash between an oil tanker and three floating bridges supporting pipelines connected to a pier in the city. The amount of spilled oil was some 200-fold larger than the oil refiner’s earlier estimation that 800 liters of oil had escaped.“The crash destroyed three out of six supporting bridges and sank three pipelines connected to a petroleum refining facility. Due to ruptures in the pipelines, some 164,000 liters of crude oil and naphtha are estimated be spilled into the ocean,” said Kim Sang-bae, chief of Yeosu Coast Guard.With the Coast Guard’s official estimation about the amount of oil spilled, GS Caltex faces suspicions that it tried to downsize the amount of oil spilled. The company said the 800-liter estimate was calculated based on the capacity of the pipelines, but critics point out that 800 liters is the amount contained in just four drums, so it seemed unreasonable to think that relatively small amount could contaminate some 10 square kilometers of waters.Also, the company reported the accident to the Coast Guard at 10:05 a.m., 30 minutes after they observed the accident. The Coast Guard suspects the vessel was going too fast when it caused the spill.“The accident was caused by the excessive acceleration of the tanker which sailed at 7 knots while berthing the pier,” said Kim. Usually 2 to 3 knots are regarded as a safe speed for an oil tanker approaching piers.The Coast Guard said it has launched an investigation into the crew members of the vessel, the navigators and GS Caltex.GS Caltex said navigators on board the ship have admitted their error to the Coast Guard, but one of the navigators, a veteran with 23 years of experience, reportedly claimed that he did nothing unusual.According to the oil-refiner, the Singapore-registered ship, named Wutisan, left England in December and arrived in the waters off the city’s coast on Friday. Two Korean navigators boarded Wutisan to berth it safely. The Coast Guard said the ship veered some 30 degrees to the left at the 150-meter point from the pier and suddenly accelerated. The ship’s crew dropped anchor as part of an effort to lower its speed but crashed into the bridges at 9:35 a.m.Some 200 boats have been deployed to the accident site to contain the contamination. About 1,000 civil servants, nearby residents and Coast Guard officers were also dispatched to clean up the spill. The spill is expected to affect 10 square kilometers of water around the accident site. A number of slicks were observed in waters off Namhae, South Gyeongsang Province. The Coast Guard estimated it will take about one or two weeks to clean up the spills. namhw@ktimes.co.kr, -------------------------------------------------------- On January 31, there was an accident in south sea in South Korea. The Coast Guard said Monday some 164,000 liters of crude oil was spilled into the waters off the southwestern port city of Yeosu. The accident was caused by the excessive acceleration of the tanker which sailed at 7 knots while berthing the pier,” said Kim.A number of slicks were observed in waters off Namhae, South Gyeongsang Province.
