Introduction

hi

i am jisoo

I was born in Gyeongju, Korea, and lived in Gyeongju before I came to Seattle.

My family members are my father, mother, one younger brother.

My mother and younger brother are like a friend to me. Also we are so friendly each other.

So , at first time, i really missed them. But now is okay.

I have been in Seattle for three months. This is my second quarter.

I want to major in nursing. And graduation is my goal in this college.

So, i don't have plan to go back to Korea now.

My favorite hobbies are playing piano, watching movie, and listening music.

Especially, i like playing piano kind of OST.

Seattle is one of my favorite cities.

Because of weather. The seattle's weather is not so cold, and also not so hot.

The best of reason is rain. I like rainy day.

That's it. Thank you.

Jisoo
