I've actually learned a lot from doing Project Cinderella; it has taught that even though I don't like kids, but I can still write a decent book for them. It makes me think that maybe one day I could write a book, and get it published (of course it would be for the grown ups though, sorry kids!) I've actually rediscovered my love for writing short stories, and things of that nature. I've also noticed that I write pretty detailed; sometimes I'm too detailed about things, which isn't always a good thing. That's always been one of my weaknesses; I like everything to be logical, and sound correct all the time.
I don't think it's a bad thing though, but I guess I'll have to work on that. My strengths would definitely be the writing, and blogging because things like this just come naturally to me. I enjoy reading, and writing a lot; it's one of my favorite past times. I've actually come pretty far in this process although normally I was pretty much on top of things from the start, and I'm done with all the writing of the book. Now, I'm starting on the illustrations; I really don't feel like drawing them... Maybe I could get someone to draw the pictures for me :) Any volunteers?
I didn't really like commenting on other people's blog, but it was something I had to do to get my grade. I liked all the comments I got although they were none with anything bad to say... Well not bad, but a way to reconstruct my drawings. I'm guessing that meant I'm doing a great job! I've done a some research about the Philippines, and found some interesting things. I'm actually intrigued about the Philippines, and look forward to visiting one day :) I hope that the children will like my book, and actually enjoy listening to it. I think I've pretty much accomplished everything I wanted to in this project.
I'm not sure about my weaknesses, and strengths... Well... Let's see. I'm a good writer, and it comes natural to me. I had trouble writing a child's level of thinking though, but I've adapted a little better than I thought I would've. I might struggle with drawing the pictures at the beginning, but it'll come eventually. I was pretty punctual with the blogs, and things. I exuded a good use of time management skills, and helping people. Not to sound like arrogant or anything, but I can't really find many weaknesses on this project. Well... I guess doing the presentations were hard for since I'm shy, and all. In the end, I believe I've doing pretty well at this point :)
Enjoy!
This is a perfect blog!.
ReplyDeleteI agree I don't think being too detailed is a bad thing. Kids are cute and awesome when they can't talk back that's what I always say haha but I love kids (my opinion), You've seen me present and I can be pretty shy too! but kids are easy to entertain.. Sometimes.
I think they'll love your story :)
Great job Janicka :)
Aww thanks... :) I agree with the part about kids... I mean I don't think you're as shy as I am though. I guess kids are pretty easy to entertain... But thanks.
