Linda - First & Last Post :P

Hey yo guys, wassup?! I know I was supposed to write a long time ago, but you know, I have been very busy with all the projects we had and all the interviews, blah blah blah! I had taken a lot and lot of pictures. I interviewed many and many students.

I interviewed Josh and Celine in grade 6; Sofia, Anh Nguyen, Long and Sally in grade 7; Minami, Onica, David and Vivi in grade 8. I asked them about where they come from; how have being a part of AIS changed them; why do they go to school; is it important to be yourself? Why? Who are they as a person? And some more questions. Each of them I asked different questions depending on their personality.

But until yesterday, I figured out that my memory card had been broken. I gave my camera to Lisa so she could take the videos that I took and put them all together with hers. But when she plugged the memory card to the computer, the computer couldn’t read the card. Lisa tried every way to fix it – she called the IT guy, she brought the camera to a shop to fix it, but it was hopeless. The memory card had been broken and all the pictures, videos that I took – are all gone!

But no worries! Lisa and I thought of a new idea right away. We decided to interview others online and it would also show that we use technology to study. So today and yesterday’s night, I had to interview Onica, Vivi in grade 8 and T.V. in grade 7 online. I interviewed Onica by skype, Vivi by yahoo and T.V. by ooVoo. I asked them mostly the same questions that I asked before.

This project is very big and tired but also a very fun project to do. I have been taught so much more about AIS, my friends, the teachers from this project. I have learned so many new ideas and way to present the presentation from Lisa.

THANK YOU LISA! I LOVE YOU!
