New Question for the 10th week

Time is really flying. It's already 10th week here at KNUE. I think I am still in the same place when I came here on March 3rd. Therefore I am easily driven by impetuosity.
Nowaday most hot issue in our country is that our government agreed to reopen our market to U.S. beef. But our country suspended U.S. beef imports in 2003 after BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy, or Mad Cows Disease) was discovered in the United States. The beef market opening is a matter concerning our life and health. Scientists believe BSE spreads when farmers feed cattle recycled meat and bones from infected animals. Eating meat from infected animals is believed to be linked to the rare but fatal brain-wasting human variant, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.
I can't understand the governments standpoint. What do you think about the government's situation? Do you agree with it or not?

Apparently, I don't agree to the attitude of the government. For whom does the government exist? Absolutely, it seems to be for the USA and the higher class of Korea, which takes only 5% in Korea. Waht a shame!!!! WE should be ashamed of ourselves for neither expressing our opinion nor taking some action. I heard teenagers shout the protest against beef agreement because it's very related to their lives. We should do something!! Without action, there is no progress in our history.

Mars!
I can't answer your question because it's very difficult!

I just came here to say 'thank you for the pretty mug again'.

Nowadays is good enough to take a walk in the evening!

You know what? I am thankful for you being here with me.

Anyway, good night!
