One of my favourite character

Hello, today i will talk about one of my favourite character in movies , it would be KUNGFU PANDA i would say. What i like about Po(the panda) is that he is determine in doing the things once he had set his heart in doing it. In the beginning, due to his father-the goose and because he was a 'fat panda' he was unable to achieve his dream, however he never given up the dream of being a kungfu panda. In one of the scene, the dragon warrior was about to be chosen in a kungfu tournament, due to the weak body he took a long time to climb the stairs and was unable to enter the place. However this did not stop Po and he tried ways to enter showing determination. He is also a brave and loyal panda as in the end he was ask by his shifu to leave but instead he decided to fight with him and save the valley. With the mind set that he is the dragon warrior and have the responsibility to save the valley.
I think that we are different as we live in different kind of environment with different surroundings. Nevertheless, Po is a good example and tells us that we should not judge a person by the apperance as unexpected things can happen in the world.

Unseen

As the title tells us Unseen poetry is poetry that we have not encounter or read before during lessons. It have to be understanding based on your understanding to the passage and many literary devices had to be use to describe the writer's thoughts and your own. We have just started learning how to read and understand some unseen. I think that it is interesting and meaningful once u are able to understand it, however it is always hard to start learning, i guess.

Romeo and Juliet

Haven't been updating for some time. Anyway after the Macbeth act, we went on to the major act -Romeo and Juliet. It is a more difficult challenge to all of us as we were divided into bigger groups and had problem due to different CCAs timing, thus started to do the props in smaller groups first. There were many things to consider and as a result we was only able to decided the role after the june holiday.
Soon it was the day for our dry run performance, however we have actually concentrated more on the props and only memorize only lines. Staging were not discuss, we also did not have enough interaction with each other, one of the problem is also because romeo and juliet was not close and never tried acting together before causing the dry run to be a bad one. After the dry run, we then made some change in roles and i was changed to played the role juliet. We had also practice more after that day and did a better job on the dry run the next day.
From this dry run, i have actually learn even more about the importance of teamwork. We need to get more bonded and talk more! This is just the starting as we have lots more to prepare compare to other groups after seeing each groups performance. (:
