Day 10 Conversation.
A performance that impressed me was a performance that i watched in Korea. It was thrilling and exciting with all the visual effects. I would definetly not consider a career in acting because of my stage fright and lack of interest in this field. If i were an actor i would definetely act as a good person, being evil is not my speciality. Some people too worry too much. Like just having a seasonal flu, they would make a big fuss and ensure that the doctor gave the best mediciene and pay attention to them. Nothing but taking back exam results can make me worry. I think that the easiest way to forget their worries is just to sit down and have a cup of nice coffee or a stroll by the lake to relax.

Day 10 picture.
The picture depicts a scene of a man try to teach the elderly some dance moves. The place is most probably a day care centre for the elderly when most of their children go to work. From the look of the man's face, i can infer that he is a little tired and a little annoyed by the elderly because most of them could not catch up and he has to repeat what he had just taught. I can also infer that not all the elderly are participating in the event. Some of them maybe too tired or just gave up trying. In conclusion, most of the elderly enjoyed the event as it help them pass time while waiting.

Day 8 conversation.
A business that i would like to run one day is to open a experimental lab. Where students can have a go at being real "scienctist" , through a series of courses and guided experiments. I am extremely interested in science, so i hope that i can pass my passion for this subject to the students by letting them enjoy the process of conducting experiments and change their perspective towards this subject. Most of them think that science is just a boring old subject which requires them to stay indoors and just read and understand the concepts. Running a experimental lab may be difficult as it requires a large amount of funds. Some difficulties that women may face when they wish to pursue a career and have a family is that they may have a time balancing work and family. Employers should be more considerate. For example, giving women with a family more time off and prevent letting them work overtime and instead bring home the work that they could not finish. Advantages of working at home is that it is more relaxed and you could work at your own pace but not rushing through the work. However working from home may cause you to be distracted especially if you have kids.

Day 8 picture.
The picture depicts a scene of two women playing with a bunch of young kids. I think that this maybe a childcare centre as most of the children here are not in school uniform. The two women maybe the caretakers for the children. I can infer that they are having a lot of fun playing the game as both the woman and the children are smiling. The game is what is known as "Hawk catching the chicks" where the teacher plays the mother hen and the other children play the Hawk and chicks repectively. The "mother hen" is required to protect her "chicks". I think that after this series of games, the children would probably take a nap, because such games exhaust a lot of physical energy, running around.

Day 6 conversation.
A time that i realised that i was wrong about something was when i wronged by brother for stealing my i-pod. I was furious and lashed at him, without giving him a chance to talk or even explain. Then my father arrived back from work, he shouted "How do i operate your i-pod, i bought it to work and did not know how to use it!"After i realised that i have wronged my brother, i was too ashamed to face him. After this, i understood that i should not blame anyone for any of my lost stuff before finding out the truth. Some people find it hard to admit their mistake because they feel that they would "lose face". But i feel that if they realised that made a mistake, they should admit it, everyone makes mistakes, running away from it is not a solution. We should face up to it and make sure we do not make the same mistake again. Everyone can learn to be good at sports, all it takes is determination and practice. For example, basketball, with ample practice, one can be able to be good at it. Some people may be better than others but some are not. This may be because of their outstanding determination and practice or just be born talented in that field. It is not fair to say men are better at sports than women, because women have proven that they are not inferior to men but even better.

Day 6 Picture.
The picture depicts a sence at a stadium. There are many students present. There are a group of boys sitted on the floor while the girls are standing up and actively cheering for the athetes. I think this maybe a Annual interclass meet for the students to get together and participate in sporting events to foster inter-school relationship.
From the picture we can conclude that the girls are more enthusiastic about the sport meet. While they boys are a little lay back.

Day 4 Conversation.
An area of natural beauty would be Mount Fuji in Japan. I visited it last year during the holidays. Being able to be there and breathe in the fresh air and enjoy bright pink Sakura flowers was a relaxing task. It helped me relax after the examinations and also made me forget all my troubles. Yes, i would definetly recommend it to others. It is a nice place to visit if you are having a leisure trip.
Through the building of new dams, reservoirs or any other building destroys nature.
We are destroying nature at a quicker pace than it can reproduce. For example trees. Trees are part of nature, they are being cut down as you are reading this. they are used to make paper, furniture or any other objects. It is important to develop cities, but if it damages the nature, i feel that it would be not worth it. Nature is a part where we cannot replace easily, but buildings could just be built in another part of the city.

Day 4 Picture.
This picture depicts a scene of people helping a disabled man in a wheelchair up the bus.
On the right, there is chinese man helping the disabled man up the ramp which leads up the bus. While a man in Flower-pattern shirt is standing on the bus and reaching out his hand to help drag the man up the bus. While next to them are a group of inconsiderate people who are just standing by waiting for the disabled man to board so that they could board as well. But none of them took the initative to help the two man help push the disabled up the bus. While being helped by two others, the disabled man did not appear to be very happy. I think that he is feeling depressed over the fact that he needs help with such a simple task which he take great effort to complete. I feel that he should not feel depressed as nobody caused him this great misery.

Day 2 Conversation
i like having a fashionable hairstyle and yet keep it neat and tidy as i keeps me attentive in class. Whereas having a messy hairstyle with my fringe drapping over my eyes like a curtain which is seriously going to distract me during lessons and i would have to constantly make sure that it is not in the way and obstructing my view. I do enjoy going to the hairdresser to ensure that my hair is neat and tidy and not like some 'Ah Beng' whose hair is messy with a fringe that reaches his nose. Hairstyles are not that important but i believe keeping a desired hairstyle would help raise your self-confidence.
I think that CCTV and security cameras in public places are completely unnecessary.
They do not have any use. Although they are placed there to monitor if there is and thieves or robbers or even just shoplifters. They are completely useless. Let us that a moment and think. If i was a robber, would i know how to evade CCTVs and security cameras? Of course i do. This renders them completely useless.
With the presences of CCTVs and security cameras make people feel more tense as they would tend to think why is the CCTV placed here? And give them a feeling as if they are watched.

Day 2 Picture
This picture depicts a sence of people learning how to cut hair.
These people are practicing their skill on wigs that are placed on dummies which are
supposed to be their "Customers". There are different expressions on everyone's face.
The lady to the far left is looking very focused. While the two ladies next to her is looking rather happy, smiling with their teeth seen. The fourth lady from the left is looking rather happy to be just a service to the rest. While the second lady from the right is also looking rather serious. I believe she is thinking about how to improve the skills. A bottle of hair conditioner is placed on the table. I believe the next lesson that they are learning about is how to help the customers wash their hair.
