Compare Myong Ji College and Myong Ji University.

We'll compare Myoung Ji College and Myong Ji University.
#1. Exterior

Myong Ji University is composed of seven-buildings.I have seen the Myong Ji University. It was very old and dowdy.However, one of buildings is so huge and nice. It’s the library.
Library in Myong Ji University was built like a piano.It is filled of modern equipment such as elevators and UCC studio.
We can rest at Myong Ji University anytime with beautiful views.
Our college has 6 buildings. It’s simple and normal but they are set up with harmony. Although our college has not the beautiful library like MJU, our college is cleaner than MJU and has the newest facilities.



#2. Library




This picture is MJC library and MJU library outside building.MJU library is very big, and MJC library very small.The MJU library is even larger than standard University building.MJU library is divided five floors in addition, MJU library has large garden on fifth floorMJC library much smaller than MJU library.MJC library has first floor and first basement level, and MJC library hasn't garden.






This picture is MJC library and MJU library inside building.MJU library has copy room, international conference room, bookstore, seminar room, UCC studio, small theater,many reading rooms, many reference rooms and large garden.MJC library has standard reading room and multimedia room, small rest area and free reading room.MJC library and MJU library have many different things.MJU library has more books and larger reading room than MJC libraryMJU library has international conference room, seminar room, theater, studio and garden,but MJC library hasn't many things.


#3. Cafeteria





This is Myong Ji University student cafeteria.Myong Ji Univ. student cafeteria is located in the student union and near other places like the Coffee shop.This place was better facilities than Myong Ji College and is more spacious.The meal ticket vending machine is good and prices were low.Today's lunch menu includes Chopped roast chicken/ potatoes, tuna bibimbap, homemade cheese pork and kimchi stew.Prices were generally less than 3,000 won.We ate chopped roast chicken/ potatoes and tuna bibimbap.The chicken/ potatoes were too large of a helping but taste is just so-so same with the tuna bibimbap.




This is Myong Ji College student cafeteria.Myong Ji College student cafeteria is located in the main building underground and has places like a coffee shop and Seven-eleven.This place's facilities are not as good as Myong Ji Univ. but taste of food was good.Prices were more expensive than Myong Ji Univ.Today's lunch menu includes Jjol noodle, a pork cutlet set, Yukgae stew.We ate Jjol noodle and a pork cutlet set.Jjol noodle is very delicious but too small of a helping.The pork cutlet set is really large of a helping and very good.


#4. Comforts





Our college is small but there are a lot of comforts.First, Seven-Eleven is a convenience store was built this year instead of a previous small store in main building.New clean convenience store has all kinds of foods and goods so I could buy something easily.I can go there and buy foods only in ten minutes!! I think it's because there is clean and neat.Next, our college has a cafe named Caffe Bene in main building. I don't like that because only females like Caffe Bene. However if you want to make a girlfriend, going to that place is a good way because there are many cute girls!The main building also has a bookstore, a stationery store, a cafeteria and so on..I'm sure that you'll go a bookstore when the beginning of a term because if you don't have the textbook, the professor may give you minus points in your name.In addition, our college has two different banks and lots ATMs. Our college also has computers for web surfing, colored printing and even free cell phone chargers!In many ways, our college has lots of comforts so we should take a pride in our college.






Myong Ji University also has lots of comforts.MJU has a student union building. It is different from MJC because MJC’s comforts are congregated in the main building with other departments but MJU has a building for students with lots comforts!The basic features are a bookstore, a snack bar, a cafeteria and a cafe named Grazie. It also has a post-office, banks, and even a optician’s shop.If your glasses are broken, you can go a optician’s and if you have to send a mail quickly, you may go a post-office in the student union building. (However, I’ve never had a situation like this.)I think best comfort is a small fragrant walk near the library. There are many benches for rest and I can feel the university campus life.




Something is good, something is bad but we couldn't decide to what's the better.Although MJU library is better than our college but we don't envy MJU students because our college also has better things than MJU.We take a pride in our college. We're MJC students!

"Dating"




Dating


We organized what to do and where to go when men and women met,.
Café

When you meet for the first time, you feel rather awkward.
And you don't know about each other. Therefore, we suggest cafe where you can be divided in the many conversations.
After talking about each other, you are able to move to another place.


Restaurant.
Eating together is the best way to get closer on interpersonal relations.
Thus, after coming out of the cafe , you'd better choose restaurant for each of your tastes.
By sharing your favorite food with someone, you may be closer.

But if you have awkward relationship, you'd better avoid food that contains chilli powder.
Because it is easily stainn on your clothes and you may show a bad appearance.
If you are a little bit longer, you don't have to worry about the restaurant.
If not, youn better go to nice restaurants to catch the mood.

In the park, as a this picture, you can take pictures with sculptures and paddle your feet in the water or churn it up in playing.
Also, nowdays most parks perform cultural performances and if you are lucky, you'll be able to see them.

You can go to the park to take a walk after eating.
Choose a beautiful natural setting and take a slow, leisurely walk through it.
If you became a little more intimate relationship, you may go on a picnic with lunch box.
In addition, if you eat lunch and have some fresh air, your feelings are very good, good, good!!



This picture is firefly gallery in the park.
However, Art gallery is better than gallery of this kind.
Before you go, some pre-survey about gallery is a better way to have an good feeling toward you.
Not reveal your ignorance is Great Technique of Speaking!

There are several kind of exhibitions. Among them, choose the exhibition that you are most interested in.
Walking through the exhibition, you can share information that you have each other.
Also, if you like the same things to each other, you will have a good feeling.


Drive
At a certain age,n you may meet a man or a woman who have a car.
In that case, Drivingn is suitable.
During driving when you feel hungty, you eat at restaurant on the road and when you feel pent-up in the city, you can drive for releasing stress.
First of all, you can drive your partner home because your moving is easy.
It is the biggest Advantage!!!!
In these days in summer, I recommend Gyeonggi Yeoncheon near Seoul as a driving course.
Dongmakgol in driving course is the valley of a large area.
While the driving, you feel too warm and you can put your feet in the water after stopping the car.
In addition, you will come across some of the most beautiful landscapes and many marvelous rocks in there.
The couple have a car to drive is a required course.
Don’t need to speak!!

Fun activities nearby Myungji College~




Intro


Hello~ Nice to meet you.From now on, let us introduce our project.





Jumbo International video arcade




Price : Price per game is from 300 to 500.
Location : It is located around back gate of Myungji University.
Evaluation : ★★ / ★★★★★
I think that it is not an appropriate way to spend time for college students.
Although it is lunch time, there are many middle and high school students.


This place is very noisy.


As you may know, after school they make the arcade too crowded.





Episode
This is a second writing.
I tried to be objective about first writing my review,


but this writing is very subjective.
Conclusively, I don't want to recommend this place.
Although its strong point is it cheaper cost than the others


(the meaning is just a one game...), it is not attractive.
If you're a middle or high school student,


sometimes Jumbo International video arcade is good place to enjoy.
But now, you're an adult and especially if you have a girlfriend or boyfriend,


then why don't you go to the other place such as a singing room, bowling club, billiard club? It is a better choice than Jumbo International video arcade.


If you bring your girlfriend here, maybe you will be single again





Easy Billiard Club







Price = 1,000 won per 10 minutes.
Location = Easy billiard club placed between Myungji-University three-way intersection and Myungji-University.
Evaluation=★★★★ / ★★★★★
My opinion= The clerk's service was really kind,


but there was not enough space between the billiard tables.





Episode
Go to billiard club!!
Logan Vs Jordan Vs Joshua..
Logan's billiard score average is 100 and


Jordan's billiard score average is 80 then


Joshua's billiard score average is 50.
We had a game of billiards.We played for an hour.


but the game was not finished.


At that time, we were unlucky with billiards.


Ever since that time, we haven't gone again,


because we were disappointed with a low scores.



Party Singing Room









Price : 5,000 won per hour.


Location : Party Singing Room is located nearby Myungji-University.


Evaluation :★★★★ / ★★★★★.
My Opinion.


I think that this activity place is very fun and exciting.the prices are very inexpensive.anybody who likes singing can join this place.


However, host not give us water.





Episode
I was surprised with my friends when we went to Party Singing Room.


Their singing ability are very high class.


We sang continually with only ballad song.Eventually, Joshua fell into a deep sleep.





Bowling-game place







Price : 3,500 won (rent shoes 1,000 won)
location : across the MJC
Evaluation : ★★★★★/★★★★★


(Because it is easy for beginners and activity.


It is enjoyable for many people togther.)





Episode
One of the fun places near the campus is 'Chung-Am Bowling Alley'.
It may be interesting that we play a game with our friends.


We can play the game with team competition.


We played for stakes, the game-cost.
Bowling is quickly learn, so it is easy to play well for bginner.


Owner teaches lessons friendly in Chung-Am Bowling Alley.







Outro
Through this project, sometime we spent a lot of money,


but it was a good experience for us.


We recommend to you the places that we visited.


Thank you.

Our athletic meeting














Our Athletic meeting ~!

Through this English assignment, I enjoyed so much the athletic meeting of Myungji College.


Although we were not participate directly in this events, we felt that we are more friendly during the athletic meeting of Myongji College,

we saw and enjoyed playing our team.


The athletic meeting is not a just sports, it makes us more lively and more feeling good.


It's not difficult enjoying the athletic meeting! Just enjoy yourself.


It's our festival not others (for only Myongji College students).


We'd like everybody to enjoy athletic meeting in delightful atmosphere on next time through this message.


We also want that everybody wish to enjoy game and participating together (we hope it'll be a little more free event next year).







Soccer


We had a field day on May 2011.


It is a very big festival in Myonggi college, and ITC soccer team is very strong team.


ITC team is one of the favorites to win every year.


They practiced hard, working out two days a week. every every every week....


Nevertheless, it's too bad the ITC team lost in the semifinals.


We did our best and have no regrets.


We'll try harder from now on for the future athletic meeting.


The college track meet strengthened the bond between friends.


















Kickball


Kickball consists of two teams. Each team has nine players and the rule is similar to softball or baseball,

but the only difference is by using our foot to kick the ball.


When I was in middle school, I was a representative of my school for playing kickball.


I could not attend athletic meeting at this time that’s why I felt bad.


Although our team lost in the trials, we, the players practiced very hard.


I cheered my teammates enthusiastically.


I promised to myself to join the game next year.
















Basketball


An athletic meeting is one of the important festival in campus life to cooperate and get on with school mates.


Myongji College holds an athletic meeting every year.


A basketball tournament is one of the main events not to be missed.

(my major's basketball team, ITC basketball team won the cup last year but this year ...^^*)


Although basketball is not as popular as soccer in Korea, it’s a charming sport as

spectators can't take their eyes off the play.


Even though you don't like sports that much, since it is an athletic meeting I hope you
participate and cheer up our team, ITC basketball team.


Playing basketball requires speed, quickness, and agility,

but watching it requires nothing (just enjoy yourself).



Go ITC !

FTW !

















Volleyball


In May 2011, The athletic meeting was held in Myungji College.


It was a result of the volleyball teams of the Information Technology department.


The volleyball teams of the IT department had practiced hard until the match.


Sadly, in the face of such a tough opponent, they lost their game from the first round.


Both men and women teams lost in sorrow.


However, I was impressed by their effort.


Although the volleyball teams of the IT department were eliminated in the early stage of the competition, I believe that it will be better next year's competition.
