CD Activity-D2B4

This is our third week already. How fast time flies.

All of you were requested to imagine that you were a singer. In 15 minutes, all of you have created your own CD titles and also your 10 titles of songs. At the end of the 15 minutes, everyone had the chance to present in 30 seconds.

How did you feel about this activity?
Did you learn more about yourself?
Did you learn more about your friends?

I found that some of you are very creative.
Could you imagine that you have done that in 15 minutes only?
Did you feel embarass to speak in front of the class?
How did you feel during the 30 seconds?
How did you feel after that?

Please respond to my questions in the comment space.

thank you pn.shima last week for me is an exciting week,i never experience myself as a singer before...yes i've also learn a lot about my friend, yes some of them are very creative for the fact that its just only 15 minutes even i myself did't realise that... it was fun, and also kind of nervous standing in front of all people who was watching you speak to them... gets me butterflies in my stomach sometime... okay i think thats all pn.shima thank you very much and i hope you have alot more different techniques in teaching.. thanks alot...

At that time I was a bit afraid but when some of my friends presented it with confident, I dont afraid anymore. I learn more about myself because I presented the ten song all about me. Then, I know more about my new friends in this class. I could not imagine that I had promoted my album in front of my friends including Madam Shima because I'm very cold at that time so I cannot speak well. Im not embarass because it just 30 seconds to present it and almost all students in my class are girls and Im happy because I have done the activity. I hope Madam Shima likes my presentation. After the activity I have more confident to speak in front of people. Thank you Madam Shima because you makes me like this English subject.

In regard to the first question, I can truthfully say that I’ve enjoyed it tremendously. Something very unpredictable but then again, that little dose of unpredictable-ness is what we need..hehe :)
Anyway, I can’t really say if I’ve learned anything about myself during this particular activity because basically what I’ve said (or wrote) is what I know. Nothing more and nothing less but what I can say here is that I’ve learned a lot about my fellow classmates. It’s sort of like a shortcut. Skip the hassle of asking each and everyone what their hopes and dreams are and who they really are and just figure it all out just through listening to their song titles. Haha. About feeling embarrassed, yes I did. Vastly. During that whole 30 seconds, all I felt was very exposed. I guess everyone felt the same thing. And after that, I couldn’t really remember what my exact feelings were. But rest assured, I had a blast!

Actually, I have no idea to create this album but I try my best to do it. I just put any titles that I can only think at that moment. But, anyway, I feel enjoy with this activity because I can feel like I am a singer. I have learn more about myself and also about my friends. Of course, I feel embarasse to speak in front of the class but thank God, I can control myself. During the 30 seconds, I feel really embarasse because actually I can't speak english as fluently but after that I feel comfortable with my ownself. Thank you Madam Shima because gives me this chance to create my own blog and can create my own album

hello pn shima...
I enjoy with your activity...I can learn more about myself...And in this activity, I also can know more about all of my friends in my class. Anyway, I can't imagine that I can create my own album just in 15 minutes only. But that is so fun and really happy because everyone must believe that they are singers. I also feel embarrass to speak in front of my class because I need to talk and promote my own album to them like the entire new singer… Besides that, I feel so nervous but I still can control myself to speak loudly... After finish the 30 second, I feel more relax because I have done it…

Thank you for giving us the once in a lifetime opportunity to feel how it’s like to become a singer. I enjoyed it very much but I have to say that it was extremely hard and tiring to actually compose a song. I’m not sure if I had learnt anything about myself but yeah I have learnt a lot about my friends, about how they see themselves, their dreams and hopes. No, I still find it hard to believe that I had actually succeeded to produce an album within 15 minutes. Maybe I was possessed! LOL. It was embarrassing to talk in front of a big crowd especially when I had to reveal my true colour, my hopes and dreams. I felt naked. But that was only for awhile. In the end it was blissful!

Hi pn shima...

I feel enjoy with this activity..
From this activity, I learn more about myself..
I also learn more about my friend’s trough out this activity..
I get to know myself and I also get to know my friends too..

I could believe that I have done this activity just in 15 minutes..
But I have done it believe it or not in just 15 minutes only..
When I have to explain about my first album in front of the class,
I feel very embarrass and nervous to talk about my first album..
In that time, I just want to talk about my first album..
And I want to finish it quickly and let my friend continue..
When I have finished it, I feel relief and relax..

It is quite fun and interesting for me to pretend to be an artist even though it is for a while and this activities actually I can more learn about my self more because ten titles that I have created is all about me and my hope in the future. I have also learned more about my friends in my class. Yes some of my friends are very creative when create the albums in just 15 minutes. Actually at that time I cannot imagine that I have to promote my album in front of my friends especially pn shima because I cannot speak English fluently and also that time the temperature in that class is very cold so I cannot speak very well. During the 30 second to promote my album, I feel I want to finish it fast as I can and after I finish my promoting I feel so relief but at the same time I am very fun that time…thanks puan shima..

The CD Activity was very interesting and enjoyable. I had imagined myself as a singer before, but never like this. I learned a lot about myself and my friends. I agree that some of my friends were quite creative. I couldn't believe that we did that in just 15 minutes but I guess the time given was enough. I felt a little bit embarrassed speaking in front of the class and in the 30 seconds, I felt very nervous. It was a relief to me when I had finished and the 30 seconds was up. I had fun and I hope that we can do an activity like this again.
