Today, Chica Villarta, Daniel Velasco, Rae Esteban, Adrian Bernardo and I reported on The Peaceful Sea, the third chapter of Timothy Radcliffe's book, What Is The Point of Being A Christian?. We did really well and I think everyone enjoyed the report, at least if we base it on Prof. Rosana's comments and our classmates' feedback, especially the activity we had which involved having everyone write down what makes them happy on slips of paper and picking out two between report segments. We chose six and they each received a bar of chocolate (I bought them hurriedly on my way to the bathroom after I presented my segment. Haha!) .I'm incredibly proud of my groupmates! Everyone really stepped up during last night's brainstorming session and they held the crowd's attention well. We were all in yellow because the report's on happiness (and everyone knows how I feel about yellow).
We got really interesting answers on the slips of paper: trance music, vanilla ice cream, parental approval, shopping, shoes, video games, anime, lollipops, rain, fencing. The best answer had to be Nick Padilla's: surfing, photography, skateboarding, film making and seeing his parents smile because they're proud of him. When we picked out his answer, Chica and I were going, "Who is he? He's into everything!" Good job!
There was a bit of light-hearted teasing after the class that made us all laugh, thanks to Prof. Rosana, so we ended the class on a really high note. We were all...happy--which was the point of the discussion anyway!
I have no class tomorrow so this was a good way to jumpstart my (long) weekend!
