Personal reflection

Worshiping and learing more inside the community around the church, and always reminding myself the God's love towards me would be helpful practical spiritual training. Which will support me to get stronger in my faith in religious, as a christian.
I can reveal this into my life, by making plans for the church on the weekends and do activities which will empasis these areas in spritual course. Therefore everytime I can intake those learnings and skills in God's gifts. These can be going into one of the worshiping group to sing in front of people up the stage in devotions, also take a course of learning in the church community services that teaches us what God think of us and what we should do.

I think I can try to reach unbelievers of christianity people and help them to get faith in God's world, which I never done and thought of before, and it will eventually lead me to experience Goid in new ways.
Gathering those people and bring them in front of God will really challenge me to connect with myself towards God.

Daily Reflection #4

Still we got on with finishing the career packet, later we did some online survey about our career job summary. It was about my personality and also style of my job interests, after doing all the survey I got detailed summary of what job suits me in lot of different ways, and what kind of personaily I am. It told me exactly about myself.
It supported me in a way that what kind of weak personality I need to be putting attention to get on with social society in the future when I finally get my job, also more information on what job suits me well and help me to enjoy.

Daily Reflection #3

We were up to creating our career file, it was that we had to find our interests and at the end connect it with our future job, we want to try to think about. After finding our jobs, we made combination of different kind of jobs that might interest me.
It was quite interesting lesson finding my future career, because I finally got to know clearly into my career that what I wanted to be working and striving for my entire life left.

Daily Reflection #2

She today reminded us about our talents, which God all equally gave us. Before this lesson, I was forgetting about my talents, with what I am good at and interested in. Therefore it connected me with religious perspectives, that what has God gave me to be good at, and which is specially outstanding compared with other people.
It's similar with our gifts, that we're born with which is in only in God's control. We can't just choose to be live under rich family and only good parents with siblings. God gave us cirstanses that will suit us, and we are able to be sustained even if it's not a great ideal life around you. It showed that I'm lucky to be in TCIS, when others are suffering from their lack of poor educations, because they can't be afford to pay for this school with their ability.

Daily Reflection #1

Today, Ms Gunther spoke things about careers in overall topic, and I knew and learnt that in high schools which you can change your subjects anytime I want, if I don't feel comfortable with it.
Also looked closely at verses in proverbs in the bible, and noticed that God has told us clearly what we shouldn't and should do during our lives, as a human being and God's sons and daughters.

This lesson helped me to understand more about careers around the school, and made me think forward about when I'm going to be amateured enough, and starting to be prepared for my college with jobs in the future.
Things about God's commandments, I realised what are the things are wrong as well, from God's point of view.

Blog Assignment 10

The photo of Migrant Mother gives really strong voice image , inside we can figure out their background how depressed they look. I could guess just by looking at it, that they were suffering from poverty and worried about something out towards the world. It has black and white color which makes it more serious painting, and adds on more feelings to the over view.

The last picture, I found on google for searching old pictures. Beside I think it has really strong impression on people who look at it, because in the picture as I said before it has white and black background, and the person inside has an deep emotion which shows from houses and objects around him, with his facial expression. He even have gun next to him that gives thoughts of violence. It has a feeling which is really rough but calm.

The 4th image, it also has white and black background, I can notice form the picture that it's mysterious painting. It has very oppresive atmosphere inside, which makes it so dark on theme of the whole view. The person standing gives main feeling of depression or despairing something seriously. His gestures gives theme of the picture, putting head right down and putting both hands into his jacket pocket, which no one knows what has happened in this image.

The 3rd painting, it can be signified just by looking at it that it's a painting by someone. The painting looks rough and painter might have just done that to give out more impressions from it, and its facial emotions has sad, worried and misery because it doesn't have specific expression showing which makes those emotions to appear. The background is bright however it used mostly red, black, tanner main base colors to describe its painting and it makes the atmostpheric feeling bit dark.

I think 2nd painitng has little bit different style of image as other 3 we discussed, because it has color and drawing a view not a person or even a face. Its colors are really bright pastel colors which stands for voice of happiness and peaceful, and it's even set in the forest so it gives relaxed feeling to it that is fresh.

1st painting is just like the 2nd one, but it has different feeling compared to 2nd painting, because this one used warm colors which gives calm and slow feeling, however thinking in a slight different way then it can show dark side depression of real meaning of the paint trying to say, which can be only revealed by looking at closely and thinking about both sides of the feeling into the picture.

Author's Perspective on Voice of Writing

Author's perspective about voice is that to vivify your own unique style of writing, and it should make readers to know your significant format of stories. Its perspective summary is to hook the audience in your own style of writing, so you can dignify by other authors or readers even.
I agree that you should come up with ideas that could make your writing special itself, it's because then your stories will hook the audience easily and make them know about your type of story, which are totally different from others.

1. What is voice? What makes a voice unique? How would you describe your writing voice?

Voice is section where it decides of your creative and quality of the writing, in stories and novels. It makes people's voice of writing unique, by creating their writings imaginative and able to hook the audience well also it has to make sense throughout the plot. I would describe my writing voice as not perfect but fair enough, which contains good hooks and interesting features to be creative and come up with my own unique style of writing different to the others.

2. Pretend you are an object in the classroom such desk, pencil, chair, the teacher's shoe, anything! Imagine yourself having a bad day as this object. Write a 500 word narrative describing your bad day from the object's perspective.

I'm a pencil own by one of the dirtiest guy in the school, I always have terrible day, because I have to be feedled with his disgusting stinky hands that are never cleaned off well. That's not all about him, he bangs me everyday to the table, and gets me dissy. My appearance are horrible with scratches everywhere on my body and bits of gums around. I guess that there will be billions of germs on me right now. I always wanted to avoid him, because I get so much stress. So I hoped he would lose me or even throw it away but that never came to truth. He used me for 5years now. I think he's very poor can't even afford new pair of pencils for himself.

The worst part of my day is when the tip runs out, he doesn't sharp to smooth. He scrub it until it doesn't come out at all. Which gives me so much pain through my body.

One day I was so happy that he lost me, and having all the rest I couldn't had it for last 5years. However, he found me at last because he searched me for whole day. I guess his mentally ill, because normally even the people who are poor, they buy even borrows new one from somebody. Anyway, I started all my daily pattern again as used to before.

I think I'm not the only pencil that has this kind of life, because there must be worst person than my owner. So after thinking about this, I felt better had better attitude towards him. After than I had better life and finally went to the person I preffered. I got own by his friend who is girl, and take care of her stuff really carefully. Therefore I changed totally into beautiful looking pencil ever, it's probably the best pencil in the world because since I went then she coated me with new paints and coverings, also she decorated me with shiny attractive stuff. I'm quite small now and nearly finished to be used all tips, but I don't care about how long it's left to be thrown into the bin. I'm just happy enough to be living like this.

After 2years been to new owners hand, I'm feeling so comfortable and not getting any stress or even bad days at all, because she treat me as her precious thing ever. She never bangs me anywhere, also she sharps me occasionally so I don't feel any pain. I think she knows that I'm alive, and not jsut a thing that has no feeling, emotions, etc.

At the end of staying for 5years with her, I got finished using by her and finally she let go of me. I felt so dipressed about missing her and can't be staying with her ever again unless I get recycled and be with her once more, but that's almost impossible to be happened.

I'm now in place where I get remade and be different object, in my next life, I want be stuff like pencil sharperner which helps the other objects and make it useful.

Reflection Questions

1.What are some of the aspects of narrative writing and did you like using them?
I think narrative essay was quite simpler writing style than other type of essays, because it just had to be written explaining the topic about myself also it's direct writing to the audience, which made easier thinking of them.

2.How did you determine what details were relevant and necessary to support your ideas?
I gave myself several questions that which I'm going to talk about, based on topic. It helped me a lot to decide which area was going to be my main theme of essay, and these questions supported me by reminding my memories in the past.

3.How did you create a unique piece of writing?
I created my own unique piece of writing by looking backward my life until now, and chose the most dramtic moment that not many of people have experienced. Therefore I was able to create my own style of essay.

4.How did you craft your writing to meet the audience expectations? What is easy or hard?
I crafted my writing so I could meet the audience's expectations by changing the position of me and the audiene together, which was affective because I was able to figure out what my audience would like to hear about, as same as what I expect to hear from other people's essay. It was easy to figure out however, I think writing those expectation thoughts into my essay was hard because I couldn't just easily trasfer into the writings.

5.How did your personal experience and faith shape the way you told this story?
It talked about my experience mostly in a way that, I was nervous and went so tensioned during the story, with by surprise. It was basically based on my feelings towards the experience I had, which means that I was expressing my feelings to my audience.

6.What would your life be like without the experience?
Without the experince I talked about in essay, then I wouldn't be in TCIS now and wouldn't be speaking and writing English as how I am now. Also maybe, I would be spoilt child in Korean public schools wondering around while my childhood.

hooking the audience, articles

What do the articles say about hooking your audience?
There are steps what to write in each part so you can hook the audience into the story, and it says first is to begin with questions or challenges to your reader so they actually get part with the story and participate, which would help them to pay attention. It also says to end with easy layout sets therefore the audiences are having no difficulties to understand.

The Tell-Tale Heart
Does the story have a good hook?
It does have a good hook, it has even its interesting impression giving in the title of the story. Also the plot inside the actual story gives exciting feelings to the readers because by adding objectives such as disease, which would make suspenses to the reader and catch their attention throughout the story.

Why or why not?
However not all of them are a good example of hooking the audiences, in my opinion the problem that makes not a perfect hook is that the story extends its plot for too long so the whole story gets boring and makes itself to lose its gained suspenses away from the audience.

How does reading a hook in a literary text compare to viewing a hook in a movie?
Reading a hook in a literary text affects the readers more effectively than in a movie because in books for example, they can explain and give out detailed information to the audience which would catch their interests and help them to pay attention while the whole excitement in the plot goes on.

Examples of hook
Through my experience, my hook is from one of the movies because it was interesting. The movie was called The Prestige, when I first saw the movie I didn't knew what the title of the movie was actually meaning properly therefore I got more interested in this movie.
However the main hook was from the story itself, because this movie's genre is like mysterious which makes your brain work things out throughout the movie but it even made me confused at the end of the movie, there was twisted resversed story going on towards the end. You might me thinking that I'm weird because why would I get hooked by these kind of confusing movie story but my favorite movies have mostly the trick plots from the movie.
This hook probably is only for me but it was my best hook movie that I watched recently.

Importance of nouns are that, it helps us to realise almost everything in sentenses which objects we talk about therefore if there wasn't nouns then we wouldn't understand things properly in writings.

Analyzing the Articles

1. Acai Berry: Miracle Diet Product or a Scam?

I think it's sort of good article that people could look at because they've got some interesting title to start with and gives quite a good idea of the Acai Berry, also it helps the reader to know if it's really miracle diet product as they thought of before or a just scam from the plot. From this article, it's bit different from the others that there is some facts that could help people to understand and even some of tips are included to support their health, which is a good example of article's support. Clear focus was applied in beginning and this helped to be a good article, i'm saying this for the reason that the report has included the example of the test which they did, if the berry was really worked for the diet. (file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/User/바탕%20화면/US%20Consumer%20Reports%20-%20Diet%20Trends%20A%20look%20at%20America's%20Top%20Diets.htm)

2. Jennifer's Diet Journal

This is also a good example of the article, its layout and language uses are different from the others which explains that the report is using the real person's experience to explain out what has happened to her by herself. This will get people interested and get more excited about reading their stories telling itself not by the reporters. Important thing is that the article is about the weight loss, diet which people will be curious more about it then the other things specially females. It also have the tips at the end to help people out how to diet and get better with the sites provided. (file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/User/바탕%20화면/Jennifer's%20Diet%20Journal.htm)

3. Cash for Clunkers Gives GM a Boost

I don't think this article is a exception of the good theme of the article because even if you look at the title, it seems to make the reader boring and there's not a much of the information people are looking for and also it doesn't give us the useful facts as many as the other articles. It's just a full writing written by reporter that doesn't give us any impressions of the news. (http://www.abcnews.go.com/Business/cash-clunkers-helps-gm-revival/story?id=8357253)
