The story went into another problem. Their mother has passsed away in Japan station after coming back from grandmother's home. However, Yoko and Ko didn't just give up everything. Yoko figured out something from mother's habit. She got money from Korea and she kept it secret. So, Yoko and Ko decided not to use that money. Yoko and Ko was still attending school. The war was over now, but the country wasn't in the peaceful mode so, they had to be careful of people such as drunken people because of the celebration of the war's end and the soldiers that want to come back and fight more. So, they lived without peace and they waited for Hideyo and father to come.

So Far From the Bamboo Grove

The book is getting more dramatic and unrealistic even though it is a non-fiction story. The story flows like a fiction story such as having suffer and then getting help from people directly. One part is the part that they meet the korean communist army soldiers and they escaped because the bomb came when the soldires were going to attack their group. The setting of the book is changing several times during the book. It is now, Japan station. They have to go to school for their education and they have to get food from garbages and other rich people. Even though they are having hard time, they are trying to overcome the fear about the strangers, their future and etc... The book is getting into falling action and the things are getting positive.

The book is getting more interesting! The group of Yoko, Ko and mother gets into a problem in the train. The patients are sick and they dont have anything to eat so, Yoko's group gives them some food to eat. Yoko is learning more about life now and Ko and mother is helping her to adapt to the environment. Ko and mother is getting stressed but Yoko is too young to have this adventure. After meeting, Coporal Matsumura, Yoko is closer to him and she likes him better now. I hope they get into a better situation where they could get more food and water to live.

Secret (Love secret)

I think I am a person that can't keep my inside feeling by myself. OK!
One day in 7th grade, I liked one girl and I was going to keep this secret for the whole year but it didn't work because of my personality. I can't keep anything in my heart by myself and I always express that feelings on my face or whatever way that I could express with. I kept the secret for about 3 weeks but I kept it because I was embarassed to tell people that I liked that person and if I tell to them, eventually she will know that I liked her so, I was worried about that. My secret was finally spreaded because my face and my actions were showing that I liked her! haha

Courage (Parents Fighting)

One day in this year, my dad and my mom was fighting in house for somekind of money problem. I was listening to it in my room concerning about them. When I thought the fight between parents were getting worse, I went to them to stop it. I was really scared at first because I never did this in my whole life and I never went against my parents, but I made a decision that I had to do this. So, I went up to them and shouted front of my dad. The first time I did that, they didn't stop argueing but when I did it again, they said that they felt sorry. I think that was the most courageous time because I never had many dangerous time in my life, but if I had it I would have more of these problems to talk about.
