What is my type such as a D, I, S, or C from the personal profile system? The result after conducting the test in class was that I was an I "Influence" and a high in C "Conscientiousness". I think that the results were pretty much correct overall. The description of a influence person is that one like to contacting people, viewing people and situations optimistically, and participating in a group, etc. I am probably this kind of person, but I do not think that entertaining people part because I do not have a skill to entertain people. Even though I tried to make people fun, they said that I made them feel chilly.
And as for a I type person; I do work participating in a group, which is my part in Korean, but I hardly participate, and do not like in a group in English. Some friends said that I am good English, but I know that they encouraged me. Whenever I have to join a group, I usually save my words at work or in school becuase I do not want to speak in English not correctly when I speak it. I am very serious about it and hope that the outcome will be good. I really like things to be accurate so that I know what to do and how to do it.
I like my type I, but I sometimes want to be D "Dominance" type in me. To take authority, managing trouble and solving trouble.

The Exhange Rate of the Korean Currency Against the U.S. Dollar
The U.S. has an economic crash in these days. I heard that Citi group had lay off around 50,000 employees. This is really serious situation now. In Korea, my country also has a problem like here. A lot of Korean said this is more serious than IMF, which had probably around 9 years ago. Therefore, the exchange rate of the Korean currency around 1,500 won against the dollar. I am really worried about it because I am an international student as a F1 visa, so I have to receive money assistance from my parents, Korea. However, now, I can not request money from them becuase the exchange rate much higher than this September, around 950 won. This time is not good receiving money from Korea, so I should increase part time job working days to save tuition.
Since I came to New York from Korea, I have been always worried about Korea such as economic situation, goverment situation and my family situation. Actualy, I was not a patriot, but I am getting a patriot. I often think that Korean government has to change and has to have a strong economic power more than other countries. Then, the exchange rate is probably getting down. It is only my personal opinion, but I believe that many F1 visa students think like me. I hope to revocer of Korean economy and down the exchange rate soon.

My Visions Will Come True...
When I saw the video, its concept was pretty interesting, and I could get point what was an important for my life, how to turn my aspirations into my goal. It called VISION.
Since I came to New York from my country, Korea, I have been getting to forget why I decided to be here. Actually, I wanted to change my life and to accomplish my goal because I have job experienced 12 years as an editorial designer and an advertising designer in magazines and news papers after graduated in Art College, Korea. These careers made me get boring and falling in mannerism even though I felt that I was a pretty successful designer in my field. One day, I realized that I needed some FRESH AIR, time to change my field; that’s why I came here and I tried to study different fields as a baby. Some of my friends asked me that “Why did you dump your good careers”, “Why do you want to be a baby into the new world even though you are not young?”, “Why, Why?” They actually did not understand me, but I can say them “Why?” I believe that I have some visions, and although I might not have a whole plan mapped out to accomplish every single one of them, I think that they are realistic and little by little I feel a step closer to reach them.
My first vision is that I should get more and add more knowledge for my next level career besides design stuffs. I want to run own my 'Total Communication Art Company' in Korea after going back there. For it, I am studying now management, marketing, communication, photography and new computer design skills. Those are probably perfect match with base on my previous careers.
My second vision is that having a photo exhibition with my father in Korea. I am pretty interested in photography, so I am studying photography as a minor now. While I concerntrate shooting photoes, I can forget any stresses. After graduated in Baruch, I will continue to study it. Actually, my father is an amateur photograper, but he has been several photo exhibitions about nature and landscape for a few years. I really like his concepts of photos. If possible, I want to travel all over the world to get good or emotional pictures with him. And then I want to have a father and daughter's photo exhibition.
My third vision is that being able to help poor children who no hope of having a decent life ever again. I want to promote education, and provide better technology. I provide them insight of life to believe by themselves becoming an important person. I want to share with them what I have all.
For me, “Past is Past, Present is Gift, Future is Hope”. Therefore, I do not think my past because I have my own present to make my hope in the future. And all that I will do action for my visions to come true. Remembering that if we take action, visions will may come true, but without action these will just be an dream.
