There are some interesting sights when I look out the window of my dorm. It is raining. The sky is covered with dark clouds. Several birds are flying across the sky. There is grass next to the hall. The chapel is across from the hall. There are a lot of trees around the chapel. Some lamps are in front of the chapel. There is a squirrel in a tree. An airplane is flying high up in the air. There are some people taking a walk in the rain. It is a beautiful scene. I like it.

Kyung Soon

My hobby is listening to music. Many people like music and I do too. Music is loved regardless of age. Music influences me. First, music reduces stress. I sometimes have stress in my life. It is caused by studying. In that case, I listen to music and dance a little bit. I like to listen to popular music when I have stress. I feel that my stress disappears mostly. Secondly, Music makes me feel good. I sometimes have homesickness. I listen to music when I miss my family and my friends. It reduces my homesickness, and I feel better. Music gives many benefits when I am tired in my life. Music gives energy to many people, so it is always loved.

Mohammed

I am from Riyadh in Saudi Arabia. It is a big, nice city. 4,000,000 people live there. It is very hot in the summer, and in the winter it's cold. You can't see anybody walking in the street because they all have cars. It is a very safe city. There is not too much crime. I love my city. I am like a fish. A fish can't live out of the water, and I can't live outside my city.
