UFS201 - 5th Reflection Topic

Finally, the day has come, we've been waited for a week to present the Ghost Story Telling. It was the day that we'd be presented our ghost story titled 'She's so cold'. I played the Little girl ghost role and the rest of my group also had their own role in this group activities. Our Fashion's lecturer helped to make-up me. It was a scary face but funny because i had  a black face, i would never imagined that i would have  a look like that and even the real ghost would have nicest look than I am. Yet, we're feeling a little disappointed  with the class situation. It was not like what we expected to be. The class was not so dark as we wanted to use our props such as candles and torch light but overall our planned has running smoothly as we've practiced before. There are seven more group have presented their ghost story as well. It was a fun day but in fact that, we are more enjoyed the day instead of feeling scared. But the funniest thing happen is when some of girl are shouting and scared especially when our own lecturer, Madame Aty refused to see whenever there are student playing ghost role. I would loved  if we're in a darker place that time, it would be more interesting to feel the scene and we would never imagined what would happen in the class.

This week we have learnt about three chapter. There are Modal Verb, Direct Speech/Reported Speech and Prepositions. It was quite hard than I thought it was. But I'll make sure that I could manage myself to understand this chapter much more better as the time goes by. As for 'Modal Verb', I had learnt something that I just realized after a long time that Permission and Request are two different things. Permission is an authorization granted to do something, whereas, Request is the act of asking for something to be given or done, especially as a favor or courtesy. At the same time, in 'Direct Speech and Reported Speech' chapter, Madame Aty had taught us on how to create a sentence. Indirectly, this subject had given me a lots of touched in English writing. It's helped me to change my broken English into Proper English especially in conversation. Last but not least, I'd learnt about 'Prepositions', and it's all about how to get a proper sentence. Great things to know that  I'd learnt a lots and even with a simple subject, it's actually helped me to gain more knowledge, to fill my empty knowledge to in-depth knowledge in English world.

For the 3rd reflection topic, we were supposed to write about the class lesson but because of Fashion's student including me busy with the preparation for the  'Matta Fair' event so we couldn't attend the class. "If I were in the class, I would have learn about 'Conditional Clause'." Madame Jane had taught us this subject in the previous semester so it was not too hard for me to catch up with this chapter. During the preparation session for the 'Matta Fair' event, I'd learnt something. I learnt to be more punctual and waste no time because time waits for no one. At the same time, to be a real Fashion designer, we actually starts our greatness from the bottom, we have to work at back stage. Changing the outfit for the models in only 1-3 minutes, there where we felt the stress are all came out. Some of the models are really abided the rules and some of them are very annoying. This kind of work is really fag out but despite of all there's a lot of funny things I get when I enjoyed the time of working at the back stage of fashion show.
