Stop being one of them(final)

Stop being one of them

   I remember those times when I was crazy about those Korean stars. I used to listen to their songs every day. When I saw those Korean shows on the TV, I would definitely stop to watching. I even spend a lot of money on the ticket of their concerts. However, I suddenly stop loving them.
   I wasn’t falling in love with them at first sight. My friend was a huge fan of Korean culture. She liked Korean’s music, movie and drama. She always tried to make me be interested about them, but I just couldn’t. One day, I was watching a Korean show on the TV. I found that was hilarious. Those stars were trying their best to amuse audience, so I started to watch that show every week. I star to chatting with my friend about those Korean stars, music and drama. We even pay the money to learn Korean.
   The year when we graduated from high school, our favorite Korean star was going to having a concert here in Taiwan. My friend and I were so excited that we decided to buy the ticket to the concert right away. We woke up in the three o’clock in the morning in order to get the number card that was necessary to buy the extra product like T-shirt and poster. We really enjoyed that concert. Watching those stars on the stage was like a dream. It was really memorable.
   However, my interest to Korea stopped when I become a senior. It happened in a similar situation. I was watching TV, and I saw news about one of our players in Taiwan was judged unfairly by a Korean judge in an international game. I felt very angry about those Korean. Also, I saw other news about those Korean stars keep coming to Taiwan to have concerts or fan party and they got lots of money from Taiwan. Somehow at that moment, I felt extremely angry. I felt sorry about the money they took from us. I regreted that I spend lots of money in the past as well. From that moment, I refuse everything from Korea. I stop watching their show, drama and movie. I felt their music is annoying, so I delete every song in my mp3.
 I even try to persuade my friend to stop crazy about it. I put all those stuff about Korea in a box and put it in the top of my cabinet. I hardly think about that box since then.
Now, when I see another new about how those crazy young girls stay in the airport, waiting for the star. I will yell at TV and tease those crazy girls. I know ironically, I was one of them. I understand that that experience will never be erased. I just hope that in the future, I will remember this experience and spend the money reasonably.

My special Place (final version)

During senior high school, especially the time before the University Entrance Examination, every day we were exhausted for those tests. After classes, we still had to stay at school for self-study. Those days are suffering. Luckily, I had a place to vent my stress. During the day, it was the playground crowded with student playing basketball. At night, it is my own special place where I could be relaxed and enjoy the peace.

There are two playgrounds in my high school. I spent more time in the one which is behind the gym,smaller but hidden. You can see inside of the gym through the big clean window. There is a swimming pool in the gym so you csn see people swim inside through the window. During the PE class, this playground did give me some pain when I had to run around the playground over and over again. But when we sat on the stairs, watching those handsome basketball players playing basketball. It was also a kind of pleasure.

While we were self-studying at night, I usually sneaked out the classroom for an hour. I liked the playground when nobody else there. It was quiet and safe since you didn’t have to worry about being hit by a basketball. The lighting in the gym would light the court at night. It was nice to sit in front of the window, seeing people swam in the gym. Swimming is one of my favorite sports. During the time preparing the test, I didn’t have much time for swimming anymore. Sometime I lie on the ground, feeling the quiet and peace. It felt like time was stop, nothing else mattered. I looked those shining stars in the sky, thinking about what it felt to look down from the sky. In this place, I had no pressure from parents, teachers and tests. I don’t have to care other people’s opinion. I was alone but surrounded by peace.

However, there were few times I got caught and had to run away from teachers. It was quite exciting actually. It felt like I was acting “Mission Impossible “. When I went back to the classroom, some friends would curious about where I go. I always lied to them that I went to the library. Though they are my friends I still didn’t want to share my secret place with them. The quiet is more valuable than friendship to me sometime.

After graduating from high school, I still go back to school sometimes, the playground always full of student playing basketball. Sometimes I just sit there, watching them playing basketball. They remind me those days, the time I spent in this playground. Although the time has changed, I can still remember the felling of being hugged by peaceful and quiet atmosphere here.
