Reflection 3

7 March 2013

          Today we discussed chapters 14 to 18 of Tuesday's with Morrie. We talked about how Morrie was not selfish at all as he always but others before him. Sometimes, I can relate to this part of the book because sometimes I do not tell my parents about my headaches because I don't want to bother them. He did not let his sickness interfere with him and he always cared about others and tried to live each day to the fullest. He worsted everyday as he now had to sleep with oxygen and he never stopped coughing. He constantly referred to Buddhists and their philosophies. Mitch and Morrie had met for 5 Tuesdays and each time they talked about something unique. Mitch always distracted himself from life with work and always brought food to the meeting with Morrie. A topic I learned was that one should never give up and I liked the idea that of how Morrie would always put others before him.

          Today we advanced on our commercial. We were a little behind because of the half a class that we missed, but we were almost able to catch up. We did not have time to brainstorm ideas last class so this time we had to do that, so we were not able to create the outline. We plan to work through Facebook and Google Docs in the days which we do not have class. We now have our two values and broad ideas for the commercial. We started to work will in the group because we had all read and we could discuss about it. We were also able to analyze our understanding of the book. Then we got to work in our commercial-we started in the right foot but them my partners got a little distracted.  However, after they got back in task we all collaborated and were able to gather ideas and upload them to our Google Doc. The group is working well because we all have the same reading skills. We are all fast readers and can easily understand the book. There have been no obstacles in our advertisement agency yet and I believe that we will be able to create  meaningful and interesting commercials.
