Today was a gloomy day, because my friend Mingue enlisted in navy. Two months ago he called me when I was in the bed. “Hey! It’s me. I have a surprise news for you.” “What is it?” “Hmmm..., I volunteered entering navy before and the navy said I met the standards. So basically, I am going to enlist in navy soon.” “Oh my god!!” I was really shocked. I thought he was just a little boy. It didn’t come to me as a reality so I decided to just forget it for several days. Time passed quickly and finally the day arrived. In the morning, in order to say goodbye to Min Gue, his friends and I met together. We wanted to follow him to the gate, however there was a problem. We were supposed to go by my mom’s car but she had to use it urgently. So we were desperate. We tried to go by train but the train fair was way too expensive. It was 8만원 !!!!! We are just poor students so we couldn’t afford it. As a result we couldn’t spend his last time together. I felt terrible. I thought about him. He acted as if he was little boy but sometimes he acted as a mature man. He took care of me whenever I was going through difficult time. I was sad that there was no one to take care of me from now on. I felt really bad that I didn’t say goodbye to him after all he has done to me. So today was a very terrible day.
