Weeks 14 and 15

Hello everyone,
First, my apologies.  I just got the final exam today, and I wanted to make sure I covered everything in class.  That is why I'm posting this on Tuesday instead of Monday.  I'm sorry for my lateness.
As for this week (week 13), we are working on individual projects.  Please make sure you send your project to me by email!  If you missed class, please write to me and tell me what happened.  I will work with you on this project.

Next week, week 14, we will be doing grammar and vocabulary.

Please make sure you know the following new vocabulary:


Talent – abilities that you are born with
Skills – abilities you learn
Experience – time spent working at a job or volunteering
Knowledge – understanding something from experience or study
Taste – preference for a certain type of thing (taste in music, taste in movies, etc.)

Adjective
What it describes
Rocky
A place with many rocks / stones
Please wear hiking boots because the road is not paved and is rocky.
Slippery
A place where you can easily fall
After the floor was cleaned, it was quite slippery, and I nearly fell.
Steep
An area with a sharp incline (mountains are steep)
When I ride my bike, sometimes I have to walk because the mountain is so steep.
Exhausting
Something that makes you very tired. 
After I ran a marathon I needed to sleep.  It was an exhausting race!
Hilly / mountainous
An area with lots of hills or mountains
Our university is in a hilly part of Yongin.
Foggy
An area with a lot of fog (clouds on the ground)
The air is often foggy on the mountain in the morning.


Also, week 15 - Journals are due!  You should have ten total.  This includes the times in class that we speak for a few minutes (I signed your book) PLUS any more 5 minute writings.  These should add up to 10 total.

See you soon!
