Complimenting Myself

Finally, I finished my group assignment today.
My group members seemed to be very nervous and concerned right before the presentation.
But, I was certain that we did well, so I didn't worry and was not that nervous.

As I said before, the professor is really tricky. He barely compliments and smiles.
So, every all the students feelare scaryed in front of him.
It's very natural thatsince he is notorious for his character.
Someone says about him,(that) "his best compliment is 'so so'. "

How about mydid my group do today?

In short, it was really successful. :P
He said to us exactly this:, "you guys'your work is SO SO, you guys." and pointed out our errors.
While he told us about our mistakes, his voice tonewas so mild that we couldn't stop being surprised. (this also works: we couldn't stop our surprise)
I have never heard that voice of him. (heard his voice sound like that/saw that side of him before)

My friends and I should have not hiddencouldn't hide our smiles after his compliment.
He asked: us, 'are you guys arethat happy to be complimented?'(you must choose "" or '') and even smiled a little.
I can't believe it . . . :D :D :D


On my way home, I thought about the last 3 weeks.
I couldn't have dinner with my family at home for 3 weeks because of the preparation.
And, I couldn't read for 3 weeks. I made a book list in order to read a book per a week, but I couldn't keep itwasn't able to read/had no time to do it for 3 weeks. I couldn't play the piano and practice my haegueum for enoughmuch time either.
I realized that how many things I sacrificed a lot of thing for this study project, although I didn't have much interest in it.

Above all, I want to compliment myself this evening.
I did my best. I considered thought very hard about allthe possibilitiespossible and ways to do my project (?) I could think about. (or I thought deeply about all the possibilities involved in the project and the ways I could approach it/I considered as many possibilities as I could)
And, I really only focused on onlythis one thing. I did not yield up to any temptations from my friends. (although I'm am really sorry now towards them now for them not to have hung hanging out with them :P)

My group members became really happy right after the class. We went home smiling together.
They are the most precious treasures that I've found in this semester. :)

I feel really free now. I don't need to be sad, sacrificing my hobbies to for another work.
I really want to go back to my normal life. From now on, I'll read, play, and have dinner at home....

I'll 'm going to talk with my close friends soon. We couldn't talk until now.
I am curious how their lives went while I was so busy. :)

Good job, Minju. :P
