My Identity Video

      After watching this movie I have created, I hope you would know me a little better than before. I tried hard putting the songs to match my pictures and to calculate the amount of time the movie will last. From this movie, I chose to put the family category up first. I put up pictures of my parents, my sister and my brother, and even my dearest pet dog (my dogs are the cutest in the world!). Next category is my physical traits. I put a really big picture of my eye, with a picture of a hand because I have the largest hand in my family apart from my dad, believe it or not. Also, my hair is black. Then I introduced my school. My most popularity in pictures is the pictures of my friends. Afterwards I introduced some pictures about the culture of the Buddhist with a song that is use to respect the king and the queen of Thailand. Lastly, I took two of the pictures from Flickr to represent my hobbies, which is to swim and play tennis.
      This project was a pain for me from my point of view. It took me awhile to actually to figure out this commotion. No one at home could help me and some of my friends are facing the same problem. At first I can’t download Freecorder 5, which was suggested by Ms Renee; this really freaked me out, plus I have no idea how to use imovie at first, which is really lame. I ask my friends every single day about how to download it. Somehow I got to my feet to ask Ms Renee about it and I figured it out later on. When I actually finished the video, I was so happy that I almost fell to the ground.

Reflection:

August 23rd- I took the Birmingham Grid of Learning in the first week and the result is quite satisfying though. The left side is the picture of a chart that shows the result of all the categories. I wasn't all that surprise with my result, but its quite surprising to see I got the lowest score on myself smart. I think I don't know or understand myself or not having enough confident. I'm not much of a music player or to create any music. The only thing that has to do with me and music is that I love to listen to music when I'm free. I really love to draw on my free time and that's why I get a medium score on my chart. It's normal for me to get a high score in this. Sometimes I kind of visualize the picture of what is going on while I'm reading. I'm quite good in making friends so people smart is almost my highest score. I'm also good in communicating with others; I think that that is the best thing about me. When you read enough books your grammar kind of improve. I'm also a athletic because I love playing sports, it helps us grow stronger and healthy. I'm not much of a math learner but I got an average score for number smart. I use my common sense a lot lately because I usually have to do things myself and sometimes when I ask my friends some question, they couldn't answer so I have to use my brain and common sense so my nature smart is quite okay.I can improve my scores by studying for tests and quizzes. I could review on notes and reading more books to improve my grammar and writing.
