He was normally up  early but he had slept through his alarm today. He stared at the mirror and looked at the old familiar scar under his left eye . “I think it’s fading” he said to himself “but I still need to get that tooth looked at, I guess I’ve been too busy with work.” He was tired. His Creative Writing class was starting 
today but it was already late and he felt sadly to not get in on time.

Because when my cat was little
she was a machine that never got tired and stopped running 
 She tried to destroy everything
 My glasses ,gloves and garments...
I was angry but when I saw her cute and innocent face
 I decided to forgive her
Why don’t I keep a cat anymore？
 Because when she grew up she became strong
 She could catch insects, mice and  geckos 
 Then put the dead bodies on my bed
 Thank you for my kindness of raising her
Why don’t I keep a cat anymore？
 Because when she became old 
the mechine started to slow down
 She lost interest in playing with toys and catching mice
She became lazy and slept all day
 One day her face was full of pain 
I took her to the vet and knew she was sick
Although she had subcutaneous fluid injections every day 
she became weaker and wearker day by day
I was  crying and she was dying 
One day her condition suddenly turned bad 
I took  her to the vet and the vet suggested to put her down 
I struggled with making the decision and said goodbye 
She left the world and my tears were dripped down
she  forgot me started from that time 
but I will remember her for the rest of my life]]> 2024-02-01 06:46:44 UTC https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2869467160 siuhanyeung https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2869468480 2024-02-01 06:48:31 UTC https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2869468480 siuhanyeung https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2872421452 2024-02-04 11:10:28 UTC https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2872421452 siuhanyeung https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2872425491 2024-02-04 11:20:42 UTC https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2872425491 Reflection siuhanyeung https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2873065798 I was really nervous when performing spoken word and was afraid to speak out loud.  Comments from classmates indicate that the topic is good and that my content is reasonably easy to understand.  To improve my spoken word, I should work on my confidence, practice more, and try to speak with more emotion and cadence in my tone.]]> 2024-02-05 05:29:39 UTC https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2873065798 siuhanyeung https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2887129517 It was just another night.

In the past, I only wrote academic essays and had never attempted to write creative writings in English, such as poems, stories, and scripts. learned a variety of novel writing techniques, including cut-up techniques, braiding, and "show don't tell". Creative writing allows for more freedom than academic writing, and I can give full play to my sense of the fantastic. Writing allows me to express abstract consciousness in concrete plots while also expressing my true emotions. There is no right or wrong in free writing, so I'm not concerned about making mistakes.
I particularly enjoy reading various modernist works in class. Although they are difficult to understand, I find them fascinating. I saw another way of writing literature, and it broke my inherent thinking. 
Through discussions with classmates and responses from one another, I was exposed to a lot of outstanding work, which motivated me. I understand that increasing the variety of books I read will help me learn more and advance.]]> 2024-04-27 14:12:03 UTC https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2972003716 Reflection siuhanyeung https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2972006296 I learned the structure of storytelling and divided my favorite movie into different parts based on plot.]]> 2024-04-27 14:16:38 UTC https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2972006296 Reflection siuhanyeung https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2972007671 I learned some characteristics of spoke word, and then summarized 8 characteristics by watching videos.]]> 2024-04-27 14:19:24 UTC https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2972007671 Reflection siuhanyeung https://padlet.com/siuhanyeung/kl6f2q8s4rpm0efr/wish/2972007932 For this free-writing exercise, I decided to narrate the story of the first picture.
