Reflection 2

I have had finished four revised annotations when Cheryl and I met with Emma. As far as the one and two revised annotations are concerned, I didn’t do a good job. Especially the first one, it was written in list! I planned to take advantage of form to make readers realize my annotation easier, whereas, it creates unlikeliness between the appropriate one. So I have to rewrite it again. On the other hand, the third and fourth annotations have to be shortened due to my overburdened messages in them. I consider summarizing is truly a hard work now. There are almost one hundred times the numbers of 500 in a book but I can only use 500 words to conclude it. Deciding which part of material is the most worth mentioning is difficult. These messages are so important and interesting to me! I want to tell my readers all of them. Also, it takes me a long time to understand these materials so it will be a pity if I cannot use them well. It was painful when I was about to organize these vast messages. I felt like I was an embarrassing magician who couldn’t show her audience a rabbit out of void. There are too many things to tell and I have no idea where to start and how to say. Then soon the situation changed, I couldn’t stop, on the other words, there were too many rabbits on the stage.  

The next problem I have is titling my issue paper. Luckily, Emma and Cheryl gave me a hand to it. Except the first annotation, the rest of my works are interrogation, phycology profiling and autopsy which come from famous crime series. But what are they? In fact, I have hadn’t thought about it until Emma asked me. I just followed the ideas crime series gave me respectively and searched for the appropriate annotations from them. It proves that if I am confused about my own work, I definitely cannot title it well, and neither can my readers know what I am talking about. It sort of shows my fundamental idea of issue paper is weak. I merely cannot tell why I choose this topic when I was forced to title it. In fact, they are three powerful ways to find out who the murderer is. I introduce them because there have been many famous series feature them. After my introduction I compare the situation in Taiwan with them and see what we lack and what we own.

I have to modifying the original annotations many times and link them orderly in the next three two weeks, present a complete work. I am anxious about this task. It sounds tough and about to take me a lot of time and effort. Nevertheless, I am expecting my issue paper show up. I feel no tiredness or revolt toward crime involved issue indicates that I am really fond of it. It is good news. Hope that the next good news is that I have finished the last task.
