Do you think the president should be blamed when the economy goes badly?
Yesterday, I read an article by VOA which was in my textbook and it said about the unemployment rate of the states.
According to the article, the unemployment rate has been improved after Obama took office although it is still high enough to leave more than 10 million people unemployed.
After reading, my teacher and I discussed about the unemployment situation in my country. As I googled it in advance, I told him the unemployment percentage in my country- which is around 4%. He thought it was comparably low and we weren’t facing severe problems regarding the matter. But I don’t think we can say the situation is so much better compare to the states. We are suffering from the worst situation of all times ever. I think we should consider the hidden unemployment numbers as well in order to see the matter accurately. Hidden unemployment refers to the population that is not reflected in official unemployment statistics- for example: working-age students who left school and are not seeking immediate jobs but are preparing for professional programs for potential jobs. If we include those numbers, the percentage goes up above 10% which is more than the triple from the original rate.
Then we discussed if the president should be blamed when the economy goes badly. We usually tend to give presidents too much blame when the economy goes badly and too much credit when things go well. Do you also think that the economy is the presidents’ sole responsibility?

the name, Michaella
Since my family believes in catholic, I got my baptism when I was young. My baptismal name has been Michaella and I thought it was a pretty name. But I havent been really familiar with the name and I used to introdue myself as "Kwon" while studying abroad because it was easier than "Hyunji" for the non Korean native speakers to pronounce.
Recently, a proper English name for me is required in my office because we deal with several foreign companies. So I decided use my baptismal name finally after 15 years from my baptism. But then I realized, people think the name is unique and even native English people think it sounds like Italian.
I am confused because I saw some of the characters in hollywood movies also had the name, and so i thought it was commonly used. Should I pick some other name? Or just go for it? And also my colleagues think the name is too long and want me to have nick-name out of it. What would be a suitable one?
If you could correct this and also give me an answer, I will appreciate :) thanks!

La personne qui est heureuse
Quand j’ai finis mes education en inde, je suis revenue en coree après 4 ans.
C’etait tres different quand j’ai comence travailer ici en coree parce que j’etais toujours occupé et fatigue de le travail.
Maintenant, j’ai oublier quand j’etais heureuse pour le derniere temp.
Je pense, j’etais heureuse quand j’ai eu beaucoup de temps pour les loisirs en inde.
Depuis peu, quelqu’n qui m’a demande de quand date mon derniere bon temps. C’etait triste parce que j’ai manqué de me souvenir de quand.
Mais, ça me ne dire pas que je ne pouvais pas etre content avec ma vie. Ça ne dire pas que je suis en depression ou qulque choses come ça.
Je dois d’etre familie avec mon situation et essayer de faire quleque chose qui fait le bonheur de moi.
C’est mon premiere etage avec etudier la langue ici ! je voudrais que ce m’aide :)!
