Vincent Luo ES2007S: September 2012
http://vincentluonus.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Friday, 21 September 2012. Rage engulfed me. I knew she was picking on me. I would get singled out in lectures frequently and this had been going on for a few weeks. “Vincent, what do you think this sentence means? 8221; “Vincent summarise in one sentence what was discussed in lecture last week.”. Once, she had the audacity to refer to me with a nickname. “Smarts, why do you think the author communicated his idea using this particular expression? Having a bad day? I’m certain I was not the problem,...

Vincent Luo ES2007S: Reflection on Oral Presentation
http://vincentluonus.blogspot.com/2012/11/oral-presentations-have-never-been-my.html
Sunday, 11 November 2012. Reflection on Oral Presentation. This time round, I felt I delivered a more confident presentation. To do that, I made sure that I used the technique of visualization 5 minutes before the presentation to mentally prepare myself. I imagined myself in a confident stance, speaking slowly and clearly. In my opinion, I succeeded in portraying the confidence that was needed for this oral presentation. 11 November 2012 at 07:55. Well done for you presentation! As the first speaker, I f...

Vincent Luo ES2007S: November 2012
http://vincentluonus.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 14 November 2012. Final Reflection on Learning. One post to summarise 13 weeks won’t do the module justice. Rather, I’d like to share three observations/experiences that left the deepest impressions on me. The oral presentation- I wasn’t quite expecting to complete two oral presentations in one module. That was definitely a first! In addition, the feedback was not fed to me (it was frustrating at times) but taught me to fish (I see the value of teaching me to fish now)! Sunday, 11 November 2012.

Vincent Luo ES2007S: October 2012
http://vincentluonus.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, 7 October 2012. I embarked on my maiden voyage to China at 15. China seemed easy to “conquer” I could speak mandarin and I could pass off as a Chinese. In the first few days of the trip, however, I was in for a rude awakening of sorts when I was having dinner at a restaurant. I motioned for the waitress to come over since I wanted a glass of water. I’ve seen my parents do it countless of times and followed exactly how they did it. I raised my hand and signalled the waitress. Looks like speaking a...
