A class of international students from many countries eating ice cream together after their English college at a college in Vermont.

Hanging out in a coffee shop in Seattle, Washington, sipping an Italian cappucino, and reading the French newspaper, Le Monde...a global moment!

A Canadian boy flying kites in Miyazaki, Japan and speaking broken Japanese with a Japanese friend...a global moment!

Exchanging viewpoints with students from India, Colombia, Korea, Japan, and Germany in the International Center....a global moment!

A Chinese woman and a French woman enjoying a Mexican dinner on the Riverwalk in San Antonio, Texas....a global moment!

Many things are similar to Korea such as coffee shops and restaurants. When I go to Starbucks in America, I can see the same menu as in Korea, so I can have my favorite drink. That's true in Bennigan's and other places. These are global moments.

When I walk down the street here, I can see many signs and, I can see the same signs in my country. My neighbors are from different countries: Mexico, Korea, and Canada. These are all global moments.

Well, I didn't know that I was globalized before I came here. When I got here streets were not strange to me, because it was really similar to Korean. Then I realized I was globalized. I do same thing, not exectly same, like who has been living other country.

I am globalized. I'm Korean, but I live in the U.S. now. In my dorm, a Japanese girl lives next door to me, and an American girl lives just in front of my room. Also, I'm wearing clothes that were made in China. I listen to American pop music. The CD player is made in Japan. In addition, I'm talking on messenger with Canadian and Chinese friends.

When I was in Korea, I uesd to go to a coffee shop where I could have American coffee and listen to Japanese pop music. There are many billboards wrtten in English with Korean in the street. I walked through it many times. I think this is a global moment.
