My Favorite Writing Assignment

              There are many writing assignments that Kathryn gives me in this quarter. However, I concern the topic "how do I deal with stress" for several reasons. First, through this assignment, I can have more time to really think about how I deal with stress. Usually, I don't care much about this because when I still in Vietnam, my parent always take care of me every time I got stress. Nevertheless, since I moved to Seattle, I have learned how to overcome the pressures and stress by myself. Moreover, thanks to this topic, I can have more experience in how to relieve stress. In this class, by comparing with others student's essay, I have learned many useful experiences that I rarely think about. Finally, this is my favorite writing assignment because I got 93 points in this. Therefore, the more I get higher point, the more I enjoy the assignment. All in all, even though there are many writing assignment that I have did  in this quarter, I prefer the topic "how do I deal with stress" to be the most interested topic in this quarter.

Eagle

            There are many places that I can visit to in a sunny day. However, I concern Seattle Art Museum's Olympic Sculpture Park to be the most interested place. There are lots of famous arts which were made by many famous artists over there. Nevertheless, the "Eagle" which was made by Alexander Calder is the one that interested me the most. Generally, it takes me over 30 minutes for just organized the shape of the art. However, I just can realize the "eagle" after more than an hour. Basically, the "eagle" was made by steel and has a red painted. In my case, I think it's very hard for most people to realize the shape of this eagle. Instead of clearly making a shape of an eagle, the artist used many curves and straight lines in order to make it more artistic. Based on the image of an eagle, the artist has stimulated the creativity of the viewer. People just can realize the shape of this eagle when they stand in the right edge and use the right creativity. Moreover, when I stand in front of the Eagle, it made me feel like I'm so small compare to the majestic of the eagle. The art was showed all the posture of the eagle and so on. Therefore, in my opinion, I believe that this art is one of the most creativity arts I have ever seen.

Jumper

                 There are lot of movies I have watched since I moved to Seattle. However, I concern "Jumper" to be the most interested movie that I have ever seen recently. The film is about the man whose name's David. He was grew up with an alcoholic father who always bully him. One day, David found his special ability of himself. With that " special force", he can jump from space to another space just in a second. Day by day, he learned to control his power smoothly, and make it easily to use every where. He decided to use his power to gained money from banks. Therefore, after 8 years, in a comfortable house in New York, he became a wealthy man with enough money to use for all his lives. Unfortunately, David has to know the existence of the Paladins-who hunt " the jumper". This group contain a hundred people who always want to kill the jumper. After a war happened between Paladins and Jumper, David found that his mom was one of the Paladin. His mom has to leave him when he still young because all the member of Paladins have to kill the jumper, or they will be killed by other members. All in all, even though the content of this film is not so impressed, I still like this film since it show the special power that human always want to have. Just a glance, people can move from place to another place although the distance between them is thousand of miles.
