Shulian-4.30.09-Final Post

Yesterday’s workshops were a success!  I believe that each of the students participating in our workshop had overall a great experience.  I was really nervous at first, but then I realized that the students were wanting us to succeed as much as we wanted ourselves to.  They came to our workshop prepared to have fun, and their attitude really helped with our success.  All the comments were positive, in the first workshop, the only criticism was that we should not look at our lines as much.  Being more prepared the second time, and now reading off-script, really made the second workshop a lot better.  My favorite part was watching the kids’ expressions when they found a bone in their pellet.  They were so excited and eager to keep going.  The Flow movie after the workshops was very informative, easy to understand, and had great facts, that I didn’t even know about, revealing the secrets of big companies like Coca-Cola and Nestle.  I am definitely going to think twice before buying bottled water!  I thought that the park at the end of the day, was a good idea of finishing off the project, besides the fact that my feet would barely move, I was so mentally tired.  Overall it was an exhausting day, but at the same time very worthwhile.
