Timeline Assignment: Irene Choi

  • Moving to Korea

    Moving to Korea

    I was born in and raised in Canada until I was five years old. Our family decided to move to Korea for me and my brother to learn Korean. Although I was very young, I was able to learn different cultures and a new language other than English.
  • Moving to England

    Moving to England

    When I turned eight in Korea, our family had to move to England, since my dad was given a job there. I only stayed there for about three years, but it was still a great experience for me. Since I lived in many different places as a child, I was able to get along with anybody whoever they were.
  • Santa

    Santa

    I think I believed in Santa until I was ten. My brother had an iPod touch which was the most awesome thing back then. I wanted one so bad I think I wrote about 50 letters to Santa to get me an iPod touch. Then I finally got one for Christmas, and at the same time I found out there was no Santa. I noticed that Santa's handwriting looked exactly the same as my dad's. It was the happiest and the most tragic day for me.
  • Moving Back to Canada

    Moving Back to Canada

    After I spent Christmas of 2011, My parents decided to move back to Canada. when I was way younger, I didn't really care about moving because I was excited to meet new people. But this time, it was different. I didn't want to leave my friends behind and fly off to Canada. But I had to. This was when I started to hate traveling.
  • Off to KOREA alone

    Off to KOREA alone

    In grade 7, I wanted to go to Korea and attend school there. So I left off to Korea by myself since my dad lived there. I started attending school near my dad's house. Although I missed my mom and my brother, I enjoyed living in Korea more than anywhere else. I also wanted to experience how people study in Korea. I wanted to challenge myself to learn difficult subjects.
  • Hayden!

    Hayden!

    After living in Korea for about a year, I had to come back to Canada and start attending high school. It was pretty sad that I had to leave Korea, but it was pretty exciting at the same time because I was able to meet my old friends at Hayden.
  • Off to KOREA AGAIN!

    Off to KOREA AGAIN!

    After finishing up the first semester of grade 9, I left off to Korea by myself again. I missed being there so much I had to leave Canada. I went back to the school I used to go and met all of my friends that I've missed a lot. While attending school in Korea the schedules were very tight. It was difficult to catch up everyone else, but I think it developed me to be an organized person.
  • GRADUATION

    GRADUATION

    I graduated middle school from Korea. I didn't graduate elementary school from Canada since I was in Korea for grade 8. Graduating middle school was pretty exciting for me because I felt pretty proud of myself.
  • Back to Canada...

    Back to Canada...

    After graduating middle school in Korea, I was pulled back to Canada. It was a hard choice for me but I agreed with my parents that it would be easier for me to go to university in Canada. Since I've lived in many different places and have experience different cultures
