Werther effect

I couldn't believe it when I heard about copycat suicide which is happenning in Korea. My sister told me about it and I was really surprised. Recently, there are many suicide cases in Korea. Celebrities committed suicide and also many people committed suicide who didn't know each other before died together. That sounds really scary. Why these things happened? I think life term is not enough which I want to do. Was there no choice without suicide? I think if someone died cause of own problem that person's life doesn't finish after the person death. The others who know and connect with the dead person will share the dead person's problem. Suicide can't solve the problem. It brings bigger problem. I think everyone should know about this and they shouldn't choose suicide. Suicide is the silliest behavior in the world. Even if your life is not easy, life is wealth.

My first Easter

Last April 12th was Easter. It was my first Easter as a catholic. Before I got baptism ceremony, I had no idea what Easter is. I just knew about Easter is a christian holiday and people scavenge Easter eggs. That's all I know about Easter. And this Easter was very special to me. Because I've never thought I would have Easter in US. Fortunately, I had two kinds of experience in Easter. Last Friday, Mike, who is a instructor at English conversation club, hold an Easter party in his house. It was so much fun and I could enjoy ordinary Easter in US. On Saturday, April 11th, there was an Easter mass at Korean catholic church. The mass presented Jejus's life again and it was good chance to understand about his life. By the way, I hate Easter Bunny. Because when I was a little kid, I saw a scary movie about Easter bunny. And I still feel that time's fear about Easter bunny. :(

Immigrants

As you know, America is the country of immigrants. Isn't it amazing? History of America was started at late 18 century but now America is the biggest and the strongest country in the world. I just knew surface of the history of America. I just knew America is a country of freedom. Last week, I had a chance to visit Bob Bullock Museum. There is a special exhibition. It is about the history of immigrants in America. The truth was different which I had thought. I think those things made present's America. So this time I could think about two faced of success. And also I could know about immigrants' life of other countries. Especially, in Asia, most countries have similar immigrants policy. I think it looks the same as early America's immigrants policy. I really hope all of the counties have the same position in the future. As soon as possible.

Brunch at Cafe Magnolia

Have you been to Cafe Magnolia? It's on west 6th street near Mopac. I've heard about this place last February. Actually, I think I heard about it before but I wasn't interested about it so I can't remember. Haha. One of my friends, she recommended have a brunch someday and we did! We had a brunch the first day of the spring break. When we arrived there the time was before 11 a.m. The place was very crowded so we were very suprised at it. Fortunately, we could get a table right now. When we checked a menu we realized the reason of crowd. It was a South by SouthWest season. My roomate told me we live in austin so that's why we didn't know. kk. We ordered different kinds of omelets and pancakes. I tried all kinds of food which we ordered and it was pretty good. Cafe Magnolia's food is reasonable cost, yummy and sufficient amount. I think it's better than the other restaurants in downtown. What do you do on Next Sunday? :)
