City Connection Reflection

1) What did you do well on the project?

I think I did well on creativity because I tried my best to make my presentation look good by making the letters move and choosing nice pictures. I think I did well too on organization because I choose the right color font and I used bullet points and I explained my ideas pretty well. I had good pictures that helped me explain and make it easier for the public to understand.

2) What would you improve for future presentations/projects?

For a future presentation I would talk to the public and not just to look and read from the presentation, Which I did. I would practice more so that I know what I have to say and I can change some words. This would help me understand more my topic and speak with confidence. I would talk a bit slower so that people could undertand me better.

4) What did you learn from the city presentations of others?

Well when they talked they were looking at the public and not much at the board and what they said they explained it really well. They had specific information which helped understand better and some of them had a very good volume and speed when they talked. When people asked questions they could answer them because they knew the topic and they understood it really well.

5) How did you meet each of the requirements from the rubric?

I followed all of the steps on the rubric which were historical factors, environmental factors, statistical factors and pictures. I think my presentation was complete and I did follow the steps correctly.

Resolutions and goals + Exciting Christmas events

Hi!,
This is the first blog post in 2011. Today's Post is about "Resolutions + goals and Exciting Christmas events. Well I had the best vacations ever. I experienced new things like going to a cruise, enjoying a relaxing thai massage, watching monkeys do extraordinary things and more.. Let me start.


First I'm going to write about my resolutions and goals for this year. The fist one is to be patient, this counts as one of my goals because I think i need to improve on it. Regularly I want everything I want at the time I want and, thats not good for me at all. The second one is to be more organized because I always lost things but I think Im improving on it and last but not least to read more.


Now it is time to talk about my wonderful vacation! Well, I went on a cruise for a week. Arriving there was like going to another planet, I mean there you're surrounded by the vast and beautiful sea .. I loved it. Our first stop was Singapore. I loved that city, is so civilized (I love the civilization by the way). The buildings, Universal Studios,zoos .. In conclusion, I loved everything. The second stop was Phuket which I didn't like that much. As I said before, I love civilization and that city has almost nothing in common with it. I forgot about civilization when I saw those monkeys riding bicycle and hugging you, Oh my gosh! I enjoyed that a lot :) then we went to a spa and we took a thai massage which I loved! ha!. Our last stop was Langkawi. I nearly die when I saw the sea :). It was so light I mean it was PERFECT!. We stayed in the beach all day, then we went back to the cruise which was going to take us back to KL!. I really enjoyed this vacation! 


Thank you!
