Chinese Spring Festival
"Tierra del Fuego" south of Chile
The origin of its name dates from 1520, when Hernando de Magallanes named it for the first time as the Tierra del Fuego or the smoke that fumes by highlighting its banks and were lit by the selk'nam (Ona). Carlos I, King of Spain, he changed the name to Tierra del Fuego, considering that the smoke had come from the fire.

The disadvantages of being left-handed Julia(Hyun Jung Oh)
But, there are few left handed people. And also I am right handed person.
According to left handed people, they have more disadvantages than advantages of using left hand. There are 4things that disadvantages of using left hand.
first of all, things like knives and heavy machinary is more dangerous because those things are built for right-handers. they may get hurt.
second, left handers tend not to be able to write very fast and you get tired or writing quicker because of the way they position their hand.
third, It is noticeably harder to find baseball mitts or golf clubs for left handed people, and noticeably more expensive when you do. If you happen to play sports, many conventions and pieces of equipment are configured to expect a right handed user.
And, finally, ANY computer, in ANY public place, will have its mouse on the right hand side of the keyboard, without exception. Some old desktop PCs had the mouse port on the right side of the case, such that it was pretty much impossible to put the mouse on the left side. so they get trouble of that.

Computers mania (Maroa)
Computers mania
New technology can be more a problem than a benefit for old people. However, new generations and companies or business enjoy the advantage of this. Today most of services, photographs, people, books, banks, TV shows, movies, are found it on the web. So people that need something just go to a computer-most of them have their own computer- and pay the bills, check their accounts, make appointments or just buy things using the computers and the web. The young generation grows up knowing, playing and studying with computers. For example, most of schools have computers since kindergarten. However, old people or third generation never learns about computers or how to use it. This is a problem first of all because sometime banks require using computer or some companies or government pages require first make appointments or write chart before go to them. Second, most pictures now are in computer, so this third generation cannot enjoy or know about families or friends. Indeed this people do not have more option than learn how to use computers.

The wonderful Venezuelan Food
Venezuelan food can be an interesting experience for tourists. International people get surprised and delighted with the Venezuelan food. One of the reasons is the mix of cultures that happened five hundred years ago. The influences came from the Indians of the country, the Spanish, Africans and Indians. Also one of the good thinks with this food is that most of the ingredients are natural. Vegetables and fruits are harvested in the country, and as an agricultural country the products have few chemicals. This is important because the food is recognize for has a lot of vegetables, fruits and spices, this ones are a combination from a lot cultures because of all the internationals that lives in the country. After the Second World War a lot of Germans, Italians and Spanish people came to Venezuela looking for new opportunities, so we can say that Venezuela food is a delicious cultural combination.

Vina del Mar geared to the turism and "university live"
small but strong country, Korea
Even though, Korea is small country, it is strong.
But unfortunately, Korea has a gloomy history. Few years ago, korea had been controled by many countries. Even after independnt, we are divided 2groups, north korea and south korea.
Until now , they are divided. And what is worse, the public is starving because they are very poor.
So some people are going abroad. But that makes our country more weaker.
Other countries called emigrant as a ugly Korean. Because their costume is not neat and they are lude. I was very shame after listen that word.
But there is one merit that makes korea strong.
That is patience and effort.
For 10 years, we are grown up from poor country to strong country, from ugly Korean to well-mannered Korean.
Now we are known for kimchi , tae kyun do and a semiconductor.
And also Korea called semiconductor country.
There are samsung (popular multinational corporation), hyun dai , kia(known as car brand).
Nowadays, a lots of foreigners coming to Korea.
In Seoul, there is foreigner town called lee tae won.
Meanwhile, lots of people were going to abroad. In America there are many korea town at Newyork, Cicago, LA.
Now , I am proud of my country, Korea
