Reflection on Luis Rodriguez Assembly

Luis J. Rodriguez was a member of gang when he was sixteen years old. He decided to get out of them. Therefore, he made a difference for his life, and he is a writer and a poet who had cultural center in Los Angeles. His popular book is Always Running. Always Running is about real gang life with the graphic details. The book is really good because you can make a decision for your life ,or you can make a chance which you can consider about your life through the book. We don't know yet what we have to do, and what we want to be in the future. Also, we don't know we are doing good for our lives because we are sometimes silly by our wrong decisions. This book tells you why the life is important and how you have to act right.

Expository Essay

Yuna Kim is a figure skater. she got a gold medal in the 2010 Olympic champion. She began the fiure skating when she was young. She wished to become a great figure skater like Michelle Wing Kwan who is her role model. She could not wear a new shoes in a long time because she practiced all day. She really had a hard time because figure skating is not popular sport in Korea ,so no one did not support her although she is the first South Korean figure skater to win a medal at an ISU Junior. Therefore, she practiced in Lotte World which is an amusement park, and she took lessons in there with her teachers. Her family was not rich, so her mother supported her selling her own house. Her mother was her unique manager and supporter. Although her situation was the worst, she did not give up her dream ,and she ran to reach out her dream. She is supporting Minjung Kwak who is lanked fifteenth in the 2010 Olympic champion because she wants her to have a good condition. I herad that she is idle now because she does not have a goal anymore. Also, she said she gets scared to play the figure skating. I hope she will choose the right way for her life.
