What is Passion for Me?

Passion is my driving force,
It fuels me like a wild horse,
A fire that burns with no remorse,
For my work is my true source.

I care about what I do,
Every detail, every issue,
For my passion runs through,
And I give my all, it's true.

Like a painter with a brush,
I pour my heart into every touch,
For my work is more than just a rush,
It's a masterpiece that I must crush.

And though some may see me as mean,
I'm just a person who's keen,
To speak the truth and make it clean,
For honesty is what I mean.

Like a hammer hitting its hardy, high mark,
I'm straightforward and leave no spark,
For my passion is a glowing spark,
That sets my work apart.

So let the passion drive you too,
For it will guide you through,
And with every task you pursue,
Give it your all, it's what you must do.

Passion is caring, it's clear,
It's the effort that you hold dear,
And with every challenge that's near,
You'll rise above and conquer fear.

Murphy’s Law is a well-known epigram that states, “Anything that can go wrong will go wrong." In other words, everything will happen once the probability of happening is larger than zero. It reminds us to expect the unexpected and be prepared to handle the unforeseen variables that can arise.

1. Narration

Have you experienced this before? You assumed you had everything well sorted out. You had planned the route, verified all the facts, and made preparations for every eventuality. Yet as soon as you started implementing your plan, everything started to go wrong. Your team members didn't appear to be working well together and the weather wasn't cooperative.

2. Observation

Despite your best efforts, every setback and challenge appeared to undermine your confidence and spirit. It seemed like you were fighting an uphill struggle and you were irritated and worn out.

3. Braiding

I couldn't help but believe that Murphy's Law applied since we continued experiencing setbacks. Despite our best efforts, it appeared like the universe was conspiring against us since everything kept going wrong. Yet, we learned and improved as we persevered and made adjustments to the challenges.

4. Insight

You came to the realization that Murphy's Law was not something to be dreaded or avoided, but rather served as a useful reminder to prepare for the unexpected and consider challenges as opportunities for learning and development. It involves accepting challenges as they come and remaining receptive to the unexpected.

5. The 5Rs (Real life / Research / Write a narrative / Reflection / Reading)

In reality, practically all of our interactions and endeavors, including those that are personal and work-related, are subject to Murphy's Law. We can learn from other people's experiences through reading and research, preparing us for the unexpected. The worst-case scenario's probability can be decreased by working very hard.

Title: pride and prejudice

Genre/Subgenre: Pride and Prejudice is a novel of manners, a subgenre of the larger genre of the novel. It is also considered a comedy of manners, as it uses wit, irony, and humor to comment on social conventions and behavior.

Characteristics of the genre: Novels of manners focus on the social interactions and relationships of characters, particularly within a specific social class or group. These novels often use irony to comment on the social conventions and expectations of their time. They also highlight the importance of manners and behavior in social interactions.

Plot, topics, and themes: Pride and Prejudice is set in early 19th century England and follows the story of Elizabeth Bennet and her relationship with Mr. Darcy. The novel explores themes such as love, marriage, social class, gender roles, and the importance of manners and behavior in society. The plot revolves around Elizabeth's initial dislike of Mr. Darcy due to his pride and her prejudice against him, and how their relationship develops and changes over time.

Why I like this genre and this particular book: I love how the novel uses humor and irony to comment on social conventions and behavior. Also, as the timeline is in early 19th century England, I feel interested to explore their behavior at that time and they also highlight the importance of behavior and manners in social interactions, which is still relevant today.

Poetry: Three limericks

It uses clever wordplay and puns to create a humorous and unexpected twist at the end. it has a surprise ending. For example, in the first limerick, the young lady, Lynn is so thin that she falls through the straw and into her drink. it is unrealistic but I can imagine it. Also, I like the playful tone, like the lady I mentioned before, it is a fun way to lift my mood and bring a smile to my face.

I have long hair

I love playing football

I am training in a football school

I am the best player in the school

My dream is to be the next Messi

My family support my dream

The motivation: (Writing Task 3)

His goal is to be the best football player in the world.

To achieve this goal, he trains 16 hours every day.

Thanos thinks that Lady Death will only appreciate his actions if he can restore balance to the universe.

Exercise 1-1
Change location-set your story in a dramatic or unfamiliar place. (From Maldives to South Pole)
Iris felt a wave of strange warmth embrace her as soon as she stepped off the plane. She was used to a cold climate, so it was a stark contrast. She turned to take in the breathtaking scenery, but she was overcome with fear when she realized she was in an unfamiliar location. She was anxious and unsure of what would happen.

Exercise 3
I went to a sizable secondary school right in the center of the city. Large, green fields and towering trees in the picturesque landscape provided shade on the hot summer days. The building had a clock tower that looked out over the playground, large windows, and was an impressive red brick construction. The sound of students rushing to their next class filled the hallways, and the aroma of books and chalk filled the air.

The environment would be overwhelming and unfamiliar to my friend Iris, who attended a small school and was raised in a rural area. Because she had never been inside a structure of this magnitude, the commotion and crowds made her feel uneasy. Iris felt intimidated and lost when she entered the school. She had trouble navigating the large, noisy building, and the commotion of the students made her feel suffocated.

Though she eventually located the classroom, Iris was shaken by the incident. The chaos around her made it difficult for her to pay attention during the lesson. Iris hastily gathered her belongings and hastened out of the building after the class was over. Being back in her spacious rural home and out of the commotion and noise of the city school gave her a sense of relief.

# data[].attributes.body
Iris isn't the most adventurous person; she prefers quiet nights spent with loved ones and fantasy novels. Nevertheless, she felt pulled by the irresistible force of wanderlust beckoning her to journey to transcend her comfort zone and liberate herself from the humdrum of her daily routine. With a courageous heart, she set sail to a tiny paradise tucked away from the rest of the world, the Maldives.

As she descended the plane's stairs, a hot and unfamiliar air encircled her like a boiling cauldron. In stark contrast to the cold embrace of her homeland, the heat hugged her in a sweltering manner. Iris found herself in a stunning setting, yet she couldn't shake off the fear that entangled her when she was surrounded by the unfamiliar place. The feeling of trepidation gnawed at her as she realized she was in an uncharted realm.

Iris arrived at her accommodation and as she settled in, she made the decision to explore the island. She was strolling through the lush jungle, admiring the magnificent surroundings, when all of a sudden－ the atmosphere shifted. The sky grew ominously dark, like an approaching army of thunderclouds, and before she knew it, a violent tempest was upon her.

Iris had never experienced a storm like this before, the winds were howling, the rain was pouring down in sheets, and the thunder boomed like a thousand drums of war that she could feel in her bones. Panic rose within her as she looked around, realizing she had become lost. Her heart raced as she searched for any sign of her hostel, feeling like a ship adrift in an ocean of uncertainty.

As fear crept up on her, but then she remembered that she had seen a small restaurant earlier on her stroll. She decided to dash through the rain, hoping that she would find a haven in the raging storm there. After wandering for several minutes in the downpour, she spotted the restaurant in the distance like a found beacon in the storm. She pushed through the door and was greeted by a friendly vibe.

Iris settled into a seat, her stomach growling with hunger. A tall and cheerful waiter approached her with a warm smile, asking if she needed any help choosing from the menu. She scanned the menu, perplexed by the foreign terms, and her hunger grew more intense. The waiter saw she was struggling with the menu, so he suggested a local food known as "Masroshi," which piqued her curiosity. Without hesitation, she chose to give it a shot and savor the mysterious dish.

The first bite of the dish took Iris to an unknown world, where her senses were overwhelmed with unfamiliar and exotic aromas. Bite after bite, bite after bite, bite after bite… Each bite was a unique taste that she had never experienced before. While indulging in her meal, she had been whisked away to heaven, where she found complete contentment and was free from the noise of the storm outside the restaurant's walls.

BOOM. The sound of thunder boomed like a cannon, the lights vanished, throwing Iris into a veil of darkness, and the storm outside grew stronger and more violent. Once more, she began to feel frightened, but then she heard the voice of the waiter which gave her comfort.

Waiter: "Don't worry, madam. The storm will shortly dissipate. We have a backup generator here, so we won't be enveloped in a shroud of shadows for very long."

Iris: "Thank you for your kindness. Your voice saved me from the hell, these kinds of storms are unusual for me."

Waiter: "It's okay. It's a common occurrence here. Just relax and enjoy your meal."

He lit some candles and continued to talk to her, telling her stories about the island and its people. Iris and the waiter talked for hours while the storm was raging outside, losing track of time until the rain began to dwindle…

Flick. The lights flickered back to life and Iris realized that she had spent an eternity in the restaurant. Iris conveyed her appreciation to the waiter for his kindness and for guiding her through the storm, and then she departed to her hotel, feeling grateful for the unexpected adventure.

From that day on, whenever she thought about her trip to the Maldives, she would always recall the storm and the delicious dish Masroshi, which had left an indelible mark on her soul. She came to understand that sometimes, the best experiences in life come from stepping outside of the comfort zone and embracing the unaccustomed.

Larry nodded and replied,"He's not the sharpest tool in the box, so yes, I agree."

Iris laughed,"he asked me where is his phone when he is holding his phone and talking with someone."

Larry laughed,"no way. I can still recall him asking me can he take one more food without paying extra money in a buffet."

Iris laughed,"I guess some people just aren't that smart. But He's a good man though, so I guess that makes up for it."

Larry nodded in agreement. "Yeah, he is a nice guy and a good friend to have. Even if he is not the smartest person we know."

There is pain when we grow up, like growing wisdom teeth.

There is pain when we grow up, like growing wisdom teeth.

As we grow up from teenagers to adults, we often experience a lot of pain.

Why do we have to go through this pain?

Why is growing up so painful?

Why are wisdom teeth called "wisdom teeth"?

Because it appears in the process of our growth, when our physical and psychological development is close to maturity, it is a symbol of "wisdom coming".

We can choose to pull out wisdom teeth and remove the source of our pain.

Just as in the process of growing up,

we can all unplug the people and things that bring pain to our lives.

It's just that before, during, and after pulling out,

we also have to bear the necessary suffering,

and these pains will make us experience a lot of torture.

Hello everyone, my name is Tony. I am a year 4 social science student majoring in psychology and I am a native Hongkonger. I have always been interested in research and data analysis, particularly using Jamovi, SPSS, R, Javascript, and Adobe series. I love exploring data and finding insights that can help solve real-world problems.

Apart from research, I also have a passion for creative writing. I enjoy crafting stories and using words to express my thoughts and emotions. That's the main reason why I decided to take this course. I believe it will help me enhance my writing skills and explore new ways to express myself.

As an introvert, I often express myself better through writing than speaking. I often find that writing helps me communicate my ideas better. However, this may allow me to participate less in group conversations or in situations that require more verbal interaction. Anyway, I'm looking forward to learning with all of you and sharing our ideas and experiences together.
