I've heard about here is a place which has the cheapest price of oil in U.S. I agree about it whenever I go to the gas station. Second, here is not crowd. That means population is good.

Atlanta, Lawrenceville is a nice place to live. (eunhyoung Yoo)

I think that Lawrenceville, Atlanta where I live in, is a nice place to live.
There are several reasons why I think so.
First of all, the scenery of Lawrenceville is good. There are a lot of trees, grass, and flowers. It is very clean and quiet.
Second, the weather is very good. It is clear, light, and mild. I like warm weather very much. So the weather of Atlanta is very nice to me.
In addition, the air is fresh, because Lawrenceville has many trees and few cars. The fresh air is good for our health.
I am a Korean. I want to eat Korean food easily. There are lots of Korean markets and Korean restaurants in Lawrenceville. This fact is pleasing.
The most important reason is that the price is cheap. I and my husband are students, so we can't work in here. We get our parents' help. So we have to save our money as much as possible. The price is importasnt for me. Apartment, food, and oil price are cheaper than Korea.
I think that Lawrenceville whereI live now is a nice place to live.

May 20, 1927, at 7:57 P.M., Charles Lindbergh’s airplane took off from the Roosevelt Field in New York City for the first nonstop solo transatlantic flight. It was a sunny day. To reduce his airplain's weight, he took out a parachute and radio. It flew over Nova Scotia and New Found Land, then flew to Paris, France. I think it was a very exciting flight. That's why he was the first man trying to the transatlantic flight. But I think it was also a boring flight at the same time. Because it took 33 and a half hours for 3,600 miles. Sometimes he was sleepy, and he fell in dangerous moments. But there was a fly, and it bothered him. Thus, he can finished his flight successfully.

You Asked, by Yeimi



You asked me what I saw today,
and I said,
"I saw a flower sleeping in the garden,
I saw a girl swearing allegiance,
I saw a boy stealing the flower,
and I saw a flower dying for the love."

You asked me where I have been.
I replied,
"I have been in the white clouds, in the soft clouds, since the dark.
I have felt the wind in my face and
the freedom in my heart for one day."

And then you asked, "What do you hope for?"
I told you that I hoped for many things:
for the impossible love that everyone has,
for the invisible kiss that you never give,
and most of all,
for the dream about you that I hope it will be true.
