Today in History
A fl ash fl ood in Heppner, Oregon kills 324 people. The
sudden onslaught of water caused millions of dollars
in damage to the central Oregon town. Before the fl ood,
extremely hard rain and hail came down in the Blue
Mountains, which rise above Heppner. Reports say that the
storm may have lasted only an hour, but it overwhelmed
the small streams of the area and caused a 20-foot wave
of water to thunder through the town with little warning.

“But just as they did in Philadelphia when they were writing

You’ve got to start making the compromises that arrive at a

Rotary exchange student
closes out visit to Keizer
By HUNTER C. BOMAR
of the Keizertimes
Back in August 2018, Jiyoung Cha
came to live in Oregon for ten months
as a part of the Rotary Club of Keizer
exchange program.
Cha has lived with three different host
families over the past ten months and has
had many opportunities to fi ne-tune her
English, make new friends, and discover
what it is like to study at McNary High
School. This week, we were able to get a
chance to ask Cha about her experience
living here in Oregon.
Cha is from a small town in Seoul,
South Korea where she lives with her
grandparents. When she left her home
and arrived in the US to meet her fi rst
host family, she was introduced to her
two new host siblings, ages four and
two. Living with her younger host sib-
lings allowed her to develop her English.
“When I fi rst came here, I was very afraid
to speak English because it was so bad at
fi rst, but the kids use simple English and
they were very nice to me. So that made
me more brave to talk to other people.”
Reading kids books, Cha said, made it
easier to learn English. “They liked when
I would read the books. I was reading
books for them, and they were very ba-
sic.”
Cha oftentimes wears a blazer with
buttons, and she said explaining the sto-
ries behind her buttons to the kids was
fun.
Cha was able to enjoy her time with
her other host families as well, and was
able to play board games with her second
family, and learn about CrossFit from her
third family. “I liked doing CrossFit with
Jiyoung Cha
my third host family father, and he made
me exercise more for muscle. I enjoyed
doing that.”
Students from other countries also
visited the Pacifi c northwest. Cha said,
“Making friends with kids from different
countries is more of a challenge because
it is new to me, and some people speak
English well and some people I can’t un-
derstand their pronunciation or accent.”
Though there were language barri-
ers, Cha enjoyed making friends with
her fellow exchange students and be-
gan to learn some of their languages as
well. “We tried to say hello using other
languages. I know some other languages
here and there. I made friends from Japan,
Taiwan, Mexico and Chile, and friends
from France and Germany.”
Cha spent a good amount of her time
studying at McNary High School and en-

joyed her experience. “In Korea, we can’t
choose our subjects, because they have
their stuff to learn. So, we can’t organize
that. The school organizes the schedule
and we just follow that. But, McNary
High School in the US, I can choose my
schedule and I can change that. That was
so nice.” Being able to choose her classes
let Cha study piano, guitar, and zoology.
“Here I am able to enjoy studying,”
Cha said, “The teachers are nice, and
when I ask them a question about a prob-
lem, they like that. That was surprising
because Korean teachers don’t like that.”
She further commented on the McNary
teachers and said, “Sometimes it’s messy
and I mess up, but they explain to me
very well and make me understand.”
Cha then described her experience at
school with the Rotary. “I went to the
Rotary meeting in Korea and they are
very serious. They wear suits every time,
so like, strict and serious. But here, it is
very funny. More family things. I can feel
like they are my family. They are so nice
and cute.”
On Thursday, July 1, Cha will fl y back
to South Korea. She plans on taking her
high school graduation test in April, and
wants to study mathematics in college, or
work for the Humane Society.
When asked if she had anything else
she would like to share about her expe-
rience or about herself, Cha responded,
“Go visit other countries and meet many
people. It is really cool, and it has made
me more active and has changed my feel-
ings. The people who I met here, a lot
of them, are so nice. You can try other
countries that are more fun and nice, and
it can make you more happy.”
