Facial Expression

When I was in Daejeon, I always visited an orphanage there. Just wanted to play with those wonderful kids. The first time I went there, I met a guy from Latin America who came to Korea as an English teacher. David for me is one of the nicest guys I have ever met. I think now he is back in Canada.

We had to teach the kids some English words. It was my first time, I did not know what to do. So i just sat there watching Dave playing with those kids whilst making them saying some words.

Last week I decided to share with Tae Won and Tae Hyun the same words. They are facial expressions or feelings. Here are some of them:

1. Anger
2. Concentration
3. Confusion
4. Contempt
5. Desire
6. Disgust
7. Excitement
8. Fear
9. Frustration
10. Glare
11. Happiness
12. Sadness
13. Snarl
14. Surprise

I also added some other simple words: happy, sad, excited, okay, sick, busy, sleepy, tired, exhausted, free and hungry.

I think, these are some easy words for us to understand and use in our daily life. Especially when people ask; How are you today?

I'll have to hand in two assignments in two weeks. One is for my major subject which may be my final research area and the other one is for an optional subject. It is some kind of research plan.

1. Children and Television: Parentage and Creativity Development among elementary school children in Korea.

2. Malaysian By Elections: The role of online news websites in gaining voters attention to political issues.

What do you think?
