First Blog Assignment

Step-by-step instructions (With Miss Just's emo notes in brackets..):

The Question is:
In what way does the main character of the novel you're reading relate to you?

Read an English novel. (Don't start complaining...reading helps you improve your English..why the heck would you still be in my class if you don't want to improve your English? Besides, I'm only asking you to read fiction, not something academic like a textbook.)

For those who wish to be more fluent in their English you should of course finish reading the whole novel or more than two or three chapters of the novel. After you've done much reading, study the main character of the novel. Either the character is a boy or a girl you have to then relate the characteristics of the person to yourself. (Come on, there has to be at least an incident that happened in your life that you find yourself to relate to the character. For example, in my case, reading "The Sound Machine" makes me relate to Klaus the fact that he invents something so unique and he manages to explore a different world through that creation. Through writing fiction I wish to create something different and not something cliche that most readers would find in Malay fiction. And in writing that, I managed to meet various kinds of people that further inspire me in my writing).

Write one or two paragraphs (Don't forget to tell me the title of the novel and the author)That's all you need to do for the first blog assignment..




You'll learn something from doing this assignment. I can promise you that.

Ps: Those who fail to submit this before the semester ends will.....(you know what will happen)
