Not only taking the TOEFL, but also any other test is stress for me. But especially taking the TOEFL is the most stressful, because all kinds of sections of the TOEFL are hard, such as listening, reading and grammar. Among those sections, I have the most difficulty with the listening section, because I’m not good at vocabulary. Even though I can hear some words, I don’t know the meaning of those words. So it makes me stressed.

The experience of smoking
When I was a middle and high school student, the policy about smoking of students was very strict in my school. My family has no people who smoke. I think that’s why I’m a nonsmoker. When I was in the army, I had tried to smoke, because living in the army was the most stressful time in my life. But whenever I smoked, I felt a headache and was sick to the stomach. I think smoking isn’t suitable for me. After that, when I felt stressed in the army, I usually played soccer instead of smoking

The way to beat stress.
I'm really likely to get stress, because my feeling is changed easily. So if I can't cope with stress; I was already crazy. Because I really like to play sports and to watch them, I usually cope with stress by sports. For example, when I get a bad grade in my school, I call my friend, then ask him to play basketball with me. After playing basketball for many hours, I forget my concern about the grade. Somtimes, it's a problem to forget so easily.

What is the most stressful part of being a CESL student? Why?
I have the most stressful when I can't tell something that I want to tell, because I can't imagine a word in English. Actually I am an outgoing person in Korea. But in the USA, I'm a shy guy, because I'm not good at vocabulary. Even though I have some questions in class, I can't ask them to the teacher. This situation makes me be silent. And my poor vocabulary ability makes me not be able to hear. That's why I have the most stress in CESL in the USA.

I'm majoring in computer engineering. In South Korea, there are so many people who major in computer engineering, so it's very hard to get a good job. I'd like to work at a big company like Samsung, but it's more difficult to be hired at that company. I have a friend who worked at Samsung, he said to me that working at Samsung is very hard, because there is planty of overtime and his superior made him work like a machine. So he is very stressful. I think I will have same problems as he has.
