On the 13th, we had a class on normativity. Not only did we learn more about the definition and criteria of normativity, we also learnt about how to use them in our daily lives. "normativity" was a totally new concept for us. When we first received the text, many of us felt lost and confused about the topic. Additionally, we learnt about our functions in the world. We then moved on to the subtopic "norm". One of the interesting parts of the lesson was how we talked about rules of human being games. We should grasp every single opportunity, sooner or later, we could become those who are impactful in the world. Our multi-cultural exhibition, where we had a lot of cultural exchange with students from other countries, such as Brazil and Singapore. All of us set up booths and shared our cultures in forms of plays, dances and singing. In our group, we did a puppet show about the ancient Chinese romantic tragedies. Spending weeks preparing this event, we received a lot of support and encouragements. It was a fun and memorable experience for us.
On the 14th, we had a session on leadership. The class itself was full of fun, as we had a lot of games like building a human pyramid and untying a human knot. More
over, we also learnt a lot in the process, such as we learnt about how we could resolve conflict through reflective listening, and how a simple 'power pose' could make us feel less tired and more energetic. At night, we gathered in our global solutions project group again and discussed more in depth of our islands. With the help of all our professors and counselors, our groups were able to decide on a lot of things, such as having a flag and deciding on the values we were going to explore. All in all, Friday was a wonderful day and it made us very excited for our trip to Great America the next day!
After the intensive classes on week 1, we finally got a chance to chill and relax - we visited California's Great America! We had lots of fun at the water park, and challenged our bravery to the limits by going on rides with gigantic loops and steep drops. The rides had a much larger variety than ones in Hong Kong but we definitely made use of this opportunity to try things we've never done before. Apart from the fun and games, we also learnt of the importance of punctuality and inclusivism through group activities. We are all thankful to have had the chance for both entertainment and learning on such a sunny and wonderful day!
