Although tired, my mind seemed energized by what a patient said. He was a WWII veteran who had recently lost his wife to complications associated with diabetes just shy of their 60th wedding anniversary. His face lit up every time he reminisced and spoke of her, especially how they 3rst met on a blind date at a soda shop when he was in the Navy in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. As he 3nished his last story, he smiled, sighed contentedly, and then said it all: “I have no regrets.” I considered what was embodied in his statement with an almost reverent, envying awe. I thought further about how often we wish that we might choices that de3ne how we relate to our family, our work, and to have the chance to do things over again, di4erently. But this those around us—though the dynamics are not always obvious. man had “no regrets.” He would not change anything.

    Love Songs Packet Page 1 of9 Below is a "quizbowl" packet - a series of questions and answers for two teams to compete against each other (like any TV shows featuring colleges or high school playing against each other that you may have seen). This one's a little different since all of its questions focus on one topic -love songs. If you have any questions or comments, please email me at --_____ r---"--- and let me know. Thanks. Love Songs Packet Toss-Ups 1. Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime? Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home. It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you. Oh, you're a hard one, I know that you got your reasons. But please get ten points on this tossup before it's too late. ANSWER: - DESPERADO- 2. The artist in one interview said, "The singer realizes he's made promises of love before and broken those promises, but commits himself this time to make a promise that will last." Maybe that's why she falls into his arms with her hair a mess. Maybe that's why he knows that her body will rise when he kisses her passionately. For ten points, name this song by Sting. ANSWER: ]IELDS OF GOLD_ 3. The movie for which it became the theme song was originally going to use "A Girl Like You", by the Smithereens. Fortunately, that was scrapped, and this song that mentions fruitless searches and a thousand churches made it instead. Hey - if it hadn't, boom boxes wouldn't be standard equipment for wooing.

  • Writing a Letter at the End of the Year Editor’S Letter
    EDITOR’S LETTER Writing a Letter at the End of the Year Editor’s Letter The year 2019 is almost over. I want to write down about two things on this editor’s letter. The first thing is “How was this year?” and the second thing is “Giving my thoughts of working as an editor-in-chief of the Mokwon Chimes”. The first thing I would like to talk with all the subscribers of Mokwon Chimes, “How was this year?” Trying to remember the year 2019 by myself, I am satisfied with my results (like editing articles well, studying hard on my major, participating in outside activities, etc.) which I’ve been made. But also, I was somewhat disappointed with the results of developing my ability for the profession which I want to be. I don’t think it’s been a long time since the year began, but the old year goes out and the new year comes in. The year goes by so quickly. The letter which I’ve written at the beginning of the year, I wrote down that I would like to discuss with you about how the year was, planning and an ounce of practice are the two most important factors in our life. Reflecting on myself at the end of this year, I am a little bit embarrassed of my words. The things didn’t go as I had planned. Nevertheless, I want to insist the same words which I’ve said at the beginning of the year; Planning and Practicing. For the next year, I want to make a detailed plan and put a plan into practice.

  • Fall 2017 Newsletter
    Creating an Immersive Hit: KPOP This last fall, KPOP, a new immersive musical inspired by the beloved pop genre exploded onto the New York City theatre scene at Ars Nova. Produced in partnership with Ma-Yi Theater Company and Woodshed Collective, with music and lyrics by GMTWP alums Helen Park & Max Vernon (both Cycle 22), book by Jason Kim, direction by Teddy Bergman, and musical direction by GMTWP alum Sujin Park (Cycle 22), KPOP received critical acclaim as well as an extension due to its popularity. We had the chance to interview Helen and Max to discuss the creation of the show. How did the idea for KPOP come into existence? Helen Park (HP): Our director Teddy Bergman and Jason Kim, our bookwriter, thought it would be insane yet amazing to create an immersive show based on the KPOP phenomenon. They were introduced to each other by Ars Nova who got excited about the idea. As soon as that idea was formed, Max and I were quickly brought on as songwriters among others. After the initial workshop in Spring 2014 that consisted of songs and choreography, everyone agreed that it would be best if Max and I collaborate and write a cohesive score for the show, and that’s how the core creative team— Teddy, Jason, Max and myself—was formed. Ars Nova commissioned us and we worked on the show for the last three and a half years to develop the show and put it up Off-Broadway this past fall. Max Vernon (MV): Ars Nova had seen one of Woodshed Collective's immersive/installation theatre pieces and got excited about having them create a spectacular event in their building.
