I t is already 3 years ago that I read this book for the first time in my life.  One of my classes has a group project which is a "book review".  During the semester, each group must finish one book what they choose and need to write down their  opinions and do a presentation about the book.  This book is written by one of famous talk show host and communicator "Larry King". He wrote his own stories in his book, and his advices are really helpful for me.  Before going abroad for studying English, i just finished reading this book and while I am staying in  Vancouver, my personality is totally changed.  If someone who has a hard time to present yourself in  front of hundreds of people,  I really  recommend this book and hope to be helpful to overcome fear to have a presentation.  - Eight things the best talkers have in common 1. Looking at things from new angle --  Taking unexpected points of view on familiar subjects. 2. Have broad horizons

Even though it was not the first time to going abroad, everything was new in Europe and it was really exciting for me.  And I promised myself to do something memorable in Europe. So I decided to do photo things like making post card using my photos and making video about my travel in Europe. It is kinds of small project before going to military service in this year. So I took around 6000 photos during 4 months and nowadays I am learning to edit them more accurately. After I receive the postcard what i did, I really want to feel satisfied with myself! Those photos are that i choose for making postcard! P.S) If someone wants to have one, i can give as a present ^^ First come, First serve. 3 people!
