First of I want to thank you all of our class mates. John jiang, Abi, Robert, Cade, Angel, William, Josh, Jack and the great Ms G. I really enjoy the time worked with you guys. I had a fantastic journey on acting. It opens my view to the drama and everything. I want to say something at almost the end of this class: Wow! The time is really fleeting so fast. I just like still stay at the first day at school--naive, immature. I can't believe a semester just past.
We did a lot of thing in class. Thanks for John jiang and Abi to led us to finish a lot of scene. I did a lot of things. I still remember the first time I introduce myself. I am really sheepish. I knew no one. I am afraid to make mistake just the same as I did in China. But MS G and others support me a lot. Then we did silent movie. That was really impressive. I still remember the sneaky smile of Cade. Sadly Cade will not come back next year and William is graduated from high school this year. I will be really sad. I will miss them a lot. Then we did monologue, the scene of flash, The movie scene of Coach Carter, Inception and Hamilton. I love those scene a lot especially Hamilton. It's a musical scene. At first I hope to accomplish some goals in this semester. I still remember now: be confident when I am acting, brave to talk and gain suggestion from Ms G and other class mates. I still wonder to enjoy every scene. I think I accomplish " be confident when I am acting, brave to talk and enjoy every scene as well. I saw my improvement not only from acting class but also from today's American culture class. Today MS michels asked us to imitated part of scene in the show called" Friends". When I acted out. She said" wow there are some real actor in our class" I was really happy to hear that. I think I became more and more confident now. Bravely express personal opinion can shows I am became more and more confident now. In the past, when I found someone's mistake I won't pointed out because it will cause awkward but actually it's not. Acting is not just a class for act it's also a class of life. How to treat people right, How to talk to others and how to give a speech. I used to be very panic when I stood in front of the audience. I will get panic, forgot my lines and cover all sweat. I will be really nervous even my voice will be shrivel. During this class, everyone must performance in front of others. After times by times I gain a lot of experience. You don't have to worry about what they do, what they said. You just need to be yourself!
In conclusion, wish I have the best performance for final exam and thank you for everyone. I really enjoy the time with you guys. I appreciated it.

First of all I want to say sorry to Ms G because I didn't see the sentence below the assignment that require to write the reflection of the Hamilton. I really sorry about that and please give me a chance to let me finished it and regraded!
One day when Abi brought that amazing song to us I feel really excited. Because that song is just the type of song I like. You might be confuse of what kind of songs I would like. I listen to all kinds of songs and pop music is my favorite. I like the song which have harmony in it. For example: Adele's "Rolling in the deep", Sam smith's " Money on my mind" etc. I crazily love those voice. I just want to say" OMG!!!!". That harmony was amazing. So did Hamilton. This song included many kinds of music styles. Such as: rap, harmony etc. On the contrary, we were doing the Inception pscene at the same time. This song really attracted me deeply. I like this part very much---In New York you can be a new man, IN New York you can be a new man just you wait. We are waiting in the wings for you, you could never back down you never learned to take your timeeeeee. Well, at this moment, I almost started to sing. Every time when I listen to this rhythm. I want to follow it to sing and dance. This song is powerful. Like the song--You raise me up by Westlife. Every time the rhythm will inspire every part of your body.
The interesting part is not just singing. We not only sing but also dance at the same time. The posture we created was awesome and cool. We were not just did the posture randomly. We did it followed the rhythm. We even snap our finger in the beginning part of the song. Cade's rape and Robert's rap they were on fire. They are awesome rapper in our class. William, Jack, Angel and I we both have our own position. And John--- The real Hamilton. He has a very low voice. Sounds very dangerous and make the whole atmosphere full of nervous.
In conclusion, I love this song and the performance very much. I really appreciated and really enjoy of this song. I enjoy the time to work with everyone.

After watched the show I really wanted to say something inappropriate" Laugh my ass off". The show was amazing and ineffable hilarious. John Jiang, Lexi they are awesome. My favorite show are Popular, John Jiang, the latte boy and Morning meeting gone wrong.
In the scene "Popular' Lexi helps William make up "her" face it's so funny. I have never seen a boy make up before. The last time I made up is in the Kindergarten graduation ceremony. I can't remember what I look like that time. Making up is very uncomfortable because first of all you can't drink water because it will destroy your face. Second when you feel itch on your skin don't touch it. Because it will make you like a zebra. Making part of your skin not look the same as other part! William is a funny guy. William and I are classmate and we have the same acting class. He is very outgoing.He likes to try different kinds of performance. And he wear a dress. At that time unleashed a volcanic eruption of laugh make the Black Box like a market--noisy and full of laugh. I remember the point we laughed was when Lexi said" You will become popular but not as quite popular as me". Of course how can a boy more pretty than a woman. Unless he has a very well look face. And then William started dance. He turn his hip and try to made himself as sexy as possible. I just want to say" wow, fantastic baby".
Before I started introduce the Morning meeting gone wrong there is something really important to me. This semester goes too fast. Time fleeting very quick. We even can't trying to slow down our pace of move on. Every morning meeting is special. It just feels like after couple times of morning meeting and then we will improve to another grades student. I really appreciate the time that makes me unforgettable--the speech of student, the performance of student, Ms Anderson's awesome joke. This scene was wrote by my roommate and Sela. This scene just let us remember the joyful time and amazing person during the morning meeting. Ms Manham, Ms Anderson. The student just acted the same as the teacher. Only those people who have special personality and characteristic can be remember by others. Student and teacher live and work together every day. They must be really careful about what teacher says and what they did. The creepy sound of Ms Anderson. Ms Manham serious face expression make every one can't help laughing.
In conclusion, I love this show. Hoping next time their performance.

I will sing the song "Let her go" and playing piano while singing. I choose this because the lyrics are very touching because it reminds me that don't let yourself regret about what you did. I play piano since I was 6 years old and my mother coerce me to play it since now. Now I am growing up, I really appreciate my mom at that time coerce me to play piano. I think music and singing can be the best way to express the sounds innermost our heart. This is my first time singing while playing the piano, it's a challenge for myself. The time are fleeting so fast and I want to show others a very different me, a special me. The final draft will due after three week and I need to practice to make it better.
If you want to be a good actor the first thing you have to learn is confident which is I spend whole semester want to reach. Second is relax, not mean being relax when you are prepare the performance. ON the contrary, we should prepare very hard and be very relax on the stage. That can help us have a better performance. The third is how to being special, how to attract the attention of the audience. That's the most important point. When you really join your performance, pretend you are playing for yourself and you will attract their attention to you. If I reach one of it above then i will be satisfy of myself.

I felt disappointed after watching this scene, I am completely not satisfy with my performance. Everyone else did so well but I am really bad especially that the part I am on the plane talked about the sedation. It seems like my tongue twisted and cant's control to speak with a stammer. I just stand there without any face expression and I just like a wire pole stick on the ground. I looks so nervous and not very natural. I found out a lot of problems such as I clench my fists all the time and I think maybe in the future I should do some movement that makes me makes the audience more comfortable. I am just like isolate from that group because I always just stood there and do nothing or sit there. I need to be diligent and put more effort and enthusiastic on the scene. The advantage is I participate in this scene and memorize all my part of words but unfortunately I couldn't performance as well as the character in the movie. I am lack of experience so I feel so awkward when stand in front of the camera.
I can make the conversation better if I put more effort on memorization. I should really practice how to say the words smoothly not doing so much other unrelated things such as " uh uh ". Precisely speech will always make us comfortable no matter audience or myself.
I really admire Cade and Robert they are always being ebullient to treat the scene not like me sometimes I am pretty lazy that's true. Thanks for our director that hardworking make this film and participating in to this movie just like a leader. Enjoy this class so much!

Inception scene
I have to say the lines of inception is a bit difficult for me to memorize. It is a great deal of work for me. Because I feel very anxiety when I am taking the video. I afraid to make mistakes especially in front of the camera. It will makes me awkward, such as I don't know where to put my hand without shaking it. And I don't know where to stand even I don't know should I watch the camera or not. That's the things I need to work on in the future. I gain a lot of confidence during this scene. And I explore some of the talented of acting. During the line, it helps me learn how to communicate well to the people it also helps me learn about the story well. It's a peerless work for all of us. I enjoy the procession of finished our own work. I learn that how to communicate with my team mates, how to work well in the group. Team work can always be a essential things through every things.
Inception is a film that talks about the dream how to get in the dream, how to build a dream and makes it more sedative. The intelligence scientist can help them creates three layers of dreaming. Inception can help me learn a lot of vocabulary, there are plenty of unfamiliar words for me in the inception. It's good way to writ it down on the note book and review it. After finished this we are going to perform a song called Alexander hamilton. I like this song so much especially the part that we sing together. I like that kinds of music. I like listen to every kinds of music and judge them by myself, if it's good enough that worth me to download it and it will definitely be a nice song. My mum alway says you are a strict judger of music. Indeed, I like listen to music it can not only for myself but also brings me happiness. It makes my life have so much fun because of a song and a listen to it over and over again. There are so much things I need to learn hope I can grow up and enjoy it.
