Once upon a time, there was a witch. She looked so ugly, and she was very evil, so many people in town didn't like her. One  day, she went to the forest. She found a pond. She was going to drink the water. from the pond, but when she bent herself forward, she saw herself mirrored in the pond. The witch thought it was very ugly, so she decided to go to plastic surgery clinic to lift her face. Soon, her face became the prettiest in the world.She became popular all over the world. Everybody thought that she was really beautiful. However, as you know.some people dislike someone who uses plastic surgery, so the picture of the witch's face spread into the internet, and many nasty comments were under the picture. There were many people who disliked it, but there were also some who liked it. Suddenly, this became an issue for most people. The world was dividedby people who like the picture, and people who did not. They were fighting seriously. Then one day, a person came who could end this fight. It was a person who had a Time Machine. He went into the Time Machine, and went back to time before the witch having a plastic surgery. A man said "Don't have a plastic surgery! If you don't listen to me you will ruin your life, and the world will fight because of you!" , and stopped the witch. Then the witch said, "But I don't want to live with this ugly face. I want to be pretty, too"  Then the man said, "If you stop being evil to the others, you will be pretty without a plastic surgery" So, the witch decided to help poor people, and be kind to the others, and amazingly, everyone loved her, and she started to think that outward appearance not very important, so she lived happily ever after.

METAFICTION

    It was a winter night, and Charlie was on his bed with his younger brother, Donald. Donald said that he was scared of the sound of the wind, so Charlie decided to tell him a bedtime story.






    It was a dark stormy night. Lightning lit the sky and wind blew strongly.
There was a small hut on a big hill, and there lived a vampire named in the hut,
The vampire was very hungry, but he was timid, so he couldn't go outside.
And there wasn't and food to eat in the hut. At that moment,he found something
walking toward the hut. He was wondering what it was. It came right in front of the
hut. It was a beautiful girl named Lily. The vampire thought that the girl looked delicious. But when he saw the girl's frightened face, he decided to save her. Lily said, "Thank you",
and gave him what she was holding in the basket. It was a loaf of bread. The vampire
was so happy to see the food. He ate the bread hastily. But he was still hungry, so Lily made him a bowl of mushroom soup. Unfortunately, he had allergy to mushrooms.




    Donald interrupted the story. "How can a vampire allergic to anything?"
   So, Charlie answered,"Why not? Vampires can get allergic to something, and even if they can't be allergic to something, it's just a story, and please, do not interrupt."
   "Okay, I won't"
    Charlie kept on telling him a story.
   

    
     
       Finally they fell in love with each other. And they got married and had a baby. They named a baby 'Bart' .But the baby was really strange.He was half vampire and half human, and he also had an allergy to mushrooms. One day, there was food which looked really delicious. The vampire didn't want to show eating food hastily. He tried to eat slowly, but he couldn't stop his appetite. Therefore, he ate the food sharing with his son. Suddenly, their skin became red and they wantd to scratch. Yes. It was made with mushrooms. So, they went to the hospital, but while they were going in to the hospital, a person said "AH~~~~HHHHHHHHHHH THEY ARE VAMPIRES!!!!!!!!!!!AHHHHHHHHHHHHH------" Soon, the vampire ran away even though they were hurt by the scratches that they've made because of the allergy. When they got back home, Lily was frightened as she saw their faces. She said " Hey! What happened to you guys' faces????? It's all red!!!!!"and gave them a mirror. As a vampire saw his face, he fainted.




   "Hey, Donald, this is the end of the story, how do you like it?" said Charles.
   "What? It's finished?"

   "Yeah, it's finished."
   "But the last part doesn't seems like the end of the story."
   "I know, but I don't know the next part."
   "How?"
   "Because this story is what I have dreamed about! When the vampire fainted, I woke up, so I don't know the next part."
   "...."
   "Okay, I will tell you another story that's about a witch."
   "Really? I love witches!"
    Charlie continued a story.

ESSAY ABOUT VIRAL VIDEOS

VIRAL VIDEO


      Do you know what viral video is? Viral video is a video that becomes popular by mass communication. It is usually about amusing things. The viral video that I want to talk about in this essay is 'ANNOYING ORANGE'. Annoying orange is not just one video, it's a series. In 2009, it was made by Dane Boedigheimer. It is a story about an orange keeps on annoying other fruits and marshmellow,etc. Fruits can talk in there. The protagonist of Annoying orange is an orange, and there other fruit friends, such as apple, pear, passion fruit, grapefruit, lemon and so on, and because of a talking orange, now, the video maker, Boedigheimer is very popular, and have earned lots of money.



      Actually, it was going to be only one video, but many people loves it so boedigheimer made a series of it.  At the first video, there is an orange on the table and an apple on the left. An orange keeps on bothering an apple by saying "Hey, apple!", and "You look fruiy!hahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaa" and more things that's really funny.  At last, the orange says "knife.". For the most annoying orange vides, a knife makes ending. The knife cuts the fruits.



       The good thing about ANNOYING ORANGE is it is very amusing. It makes people smile, and have fun. Also, an orange has many fans, too. When I watched the video, I laughed so much. But, the bad thing about ANNOYING ORANGE is that probably most people cannot eat any fruits such as orange, apple after they watch the video. Seriously, who can eat any fruit after watching any video that is about a talking fruit with eyes,and huge mouth and yellow teeth? Probably nobody can't. Same for me, too. After I watched it, I could not eat an orange or an apple.


        Third, there are many parodies of annoying orange. For example, ANNOYING ORANGE ANGRY BIRD. The subtitle is in Korean.


http://play.pullbbang.com/9915194.swf     <<<<------------ a site where the video is.
 AngryBird is famous, and Annoying Orange is famous., and this video is a mix of those two.

http://blog.naver.com/crusader3914/40123041289    <<<<<<<<<----------a site where the video is.
It is a mix of  Supermario and Annoying Orange.


The parodies are very amusing, too, but not as original. I think ANNOYING ORANGE the original is the best.


           I think viral videos are good, because they can make people earn a lot of money. For example, Annoying Orange's creator Dane Boedigheimer earned a lot of money, and he got very famous. Also, viral videos can make people to enjoy. But the problem about viral videos is sometimes, it can hurt people. Example of this is Rebecca Black. Her song called "Friday"'s music video has been a viral video, too, but many people dislike her, and even some people gave her threatening messages. I think we should reform this problem, and if the problem about viral videos are reformed, then it will be much better.

Three things about me

1. I like Sherlock Holmes series.




>>>>>I love Sherlock Holmes so much that I have so many novels about it.




Sherlock Holmes is a main character of  Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle's mystery novel. Holmes is an imagination detective during 19th to 20th century, at  UK. He is proficient atmany things including botany, geography, chemistry, biology, the law of England, the documentary of the crimes, boxing and fencing. Also he is a well violinist.too.


Stil, there are many sherlockion on the earth, and maybe I could be one of them too. When I was in elementary school, I tried to act ,study, eat like Holmes, and now, I read many novels about Holmes.







2. I like to play the piano.



 >>>>>>My hobby is to playthe piano. I started to play the piano since I was 7 years old. Now, I play Chopin's Waltes, Schubert impromptu, and so on. When I was in 6th grade at elementary school, I wanted to quit playing the piano, but my mom persuaded meto keep on playing the piano, so I just kept on playing it, and now, I really enjoy it, and if I quit to play the piano, probably I would have regretted it.



3. I love travelling.




>>>> I love travelling foreign countries.   


   I went to many countries since I was young because my father loves travelling. Because of that, I love travelling, too.


 When I was in 5th grade-12years old- I went to Canada to study English. After 11 monthes in Canada is over, my family went to Yellowknife(capital of Northwest Territories), and at there we saw aurora. The color was mostly green-not exactly green, though. It was like between light green and green mixed with sky blue, but close to the green- It was so beautiful!  Well, it was VERY COLD, but I was so happy to see the aurora.
