On August, before summer break ended, my family decided to go to see Lake Louise. When we arrived there, the word that immediately popped out of my mind was "magnificent." The vast emerald lake that shines brightly by the sunlight is surrounded by mountains with lush green coniferous trees. The water is perfectly still and makes no movement at all unless some kids try to skip stones on it. If you touch the water, in a second, your hand turns freezing cold, and you immediately try to look for a towel to wipe off the freezing cold water. Beyond the lake lie mountains covered with clean white snow, and they all together create an image of winter as well as summer. It not only unfolds a splendid view, but the fresh air that you breathe in while you watch the majestic scenery, carries away all the stress that came along with you. Birds chirp as if they are trying to catch the tourist's attention and the sound just makes the place more peaceful. You can hear people say, "Look how bright the lake shines!" It makes you want to jump right in and relax looking at the endless blue sky.
Gazing at this fantastic view, I could feel all the stress being relieved. At the time, it was not long when my family started to live in Canada, so I had hard time adapting to the foreign country. English was a language that I have never learned before, so I could barely communicate with my foreign friends. Even though time went by, I did not feel my English get any better. Moreover, some of my behavior adapted to the Korean culture made a grin on my friend's faces. Whenever I double dipped my French fries in the ketchup that my friends and I shared, they would scold me of my behavior. Then, I would get depressed and become careful that I would not make any mistakes again. All these kinds of experiences made me stressful, and I wanted to have a time to cool myself down. Lake Louise was the perfect place to heal myself. I could never forget the astonishing sight that unfolded in front of me, and how it washed away all the stress I had.
1. It was great that i could imagine the view of Lake Louise, how magnificant it is.Through his story, I can imagine how it became his stress reliever.
ReplyDelete2. I liked how he described overall, but it would be greater if he described how the sunshine sparkles on the surface of the lake. Not only write down what tourists said. :)
3. The vast emerald lake that shines brightly by the sunlight is surrounded by mountains with lush green coniferous trees.

4. It is very peaceful and makes me calm down.
5. This was the place where healt the writers heart when he was young in Canada. So it is very special.
6. He said how stressful he was in Canada and how this place became his stress reliever. It was really great, however, it would be greater that if he wrote about what he did at the Lake Louise after he got stress, in detail, such as walking along the lake, reading a book at the lake and etc.
