C….U…..

    My best part of experiences here in Columbia is field trip to two different kind of neighborhood, because I could understand about people’s different opinions and I could feel their own culture and life. They are trying to keep their traditional culture. This experience made me more interesting to U.S. culture.
    After the summer school, I will try to get car license in Chicago and try to make many American friends. Also I will research about the Chicago for shopping and my hobbies. This fall, I will study hard about Acoustics and Math. Also I have to study ESL and history of U.S. If I can I really want to practice my hobbies which are basketball, bowling, driving, drawing and billiards. And next year, I will study more about Acoustics, and I’d like to live in my own apartment. So I think in this one year I will be so busy everyday, but this experience will make me more adult and I can grow up my own skill. Thank you for teach me many things and thank you for became my friend. Please keep in touch forever.

THANK U VERY MUCH.

Mexican Fine Arts Center Museum

    Today I went to Mexican Fine Arts Center Museum. When I arrived at the station, which is called “18th street,” this time my feeling did not change because it looked the same as other areas outside of downtown. On the street, people were very friendly. They were happy to talk with me. 
     When I went in the Museum, I saw lots of pictures and drawings. Each picture and drawing had lots of meaning and symbolism. I thought they were keeping their traditional culture through the drawings because each picture had the same things. For example, all pictures had food, sun, moon, and animals. Most pictures were about the relationship between Mexicans and the Spanish. And this gave the pictures good balance.
     After that we went to eat the lunch in Mexican restaurant. It was so nice because these were very tasty and there had some rice as well. When I was on the train, I was so sleepy.
     I think there are very comfortable place because there are not busy and people are friendly. I think this trip was good experience for me.

Field Trip Report on DuSable Museum(Analysis)

    Reason of why I knew that I am getting at the DuSable Museum, is people changed on the bus, when I was going to Museum. Also when I saw out side, scenery changed every minute, and the Number of African American who walking on a street increased. I felt that a museum staff’s belief of we are all the same, because he spoke very friendly and he told us his all pinion. And why I felt very sad about newspaper is, on newspaper there is all information of her. When I saw the picture of lynch, I felt so bad, because I could not believe it, and I could not believe it was done by people. But when I went to down stairs, my feeling became much better, because the many jackets of record disk told me African American is part of our world now.
     I think this museum is all African American’s belief. And from the museum, I thought I have to study and under stand the American history and culture more for communication with everyone in U.S. I learned different things this time, last time when I went to Millennium Park I felt I learned about the people in general and culture, but this time I felt I learned America’s history and people’s opinion. After the trip I am thinking about this problem more seriously.

Field Trip Report on DuSable Museum(Thought and feeling)

    On the Field Trip I thought and felt mach kind of things, I was different feeling in each place, room, minutes. Specially, on the bus, my feeling was changing every minute. I knew that I am getting at the DuSable Museum. I felt and getting very interested in the place every minute.
     When I went in the Museum, I thought that the Museum is little old building. When a men who a staff of DuSable Museum, explain to us about the information of on the wall. I felt that his belief of we are all the same. And his belief was made me serious. When I read a newspaper about an African American ran away, I felt so sad. Also I thought that people did not think she is a person. And after that I felt very bad because I saw some pictures which African American was lynched by people. I though that this is not about people things to do.
     But when I went to down stairs, my feeling became much better. And when I was watching many jackets of record disk, I thought African American people are very important part of people, and world.
After I leave the Museum, I had two feeling. These are Happy and we need to improve of problem about African American more.

Field Trip Report on DuSable Museum (Description)

    Today I went to Dusable Museum, which is the oldest African American History Museum in the country. We take a bus from near the Columbia College Chicago. On the bus, There were many white people and only a few black people, but after 10 minute there was only one white parson and many black people.
    When I went in the Museum, there had a lot of information on the wall. A room, there had a lot of old African American picture and information. One newspaper had an information about an African American ran away. And if someone got an information, they can get $25 and if they catch this African American they can get $50. In that newspaper also had lots of information about the African American. For example, her hairstyle, what she wearing, where she from and so on. I saw some other newspaper like that information, and these were looks so strict and language was so strict as well. There are some picture which African American was lynched by white people. It was black and white picture. After that, I saw some drawing. These were drawn by the African American. And these were very natural drawing.
    I went to down stairs and I saw many jacket of record disk. These music records are singing by African American. I saw some jacket of singer of I know. Also I found my favorite singer, which is “TAKE 6”.  Before we leave the Museum, we take some picture with Museum staffs.
