Outsiders Narrative:
Description: It's a short story about why I wish someone had told me not to jump spiked fences. It tells the tale of when I went to Rockwood Park and had to retrieve a Whizzo Frisbee then tried to cut corners and eventually got stuck upside-down on a fence.
Why I selected it: It's well written and funny (at least I think so). I'm rather proud of it because I managed to write that pretty well in a very limited time-frame.
Strengths: The narrative is short and to point. It's pretty interesting and I think it really grabs the attention of the reader right from the start. I think it seems sorta bland during the middle section though.
What it demonstrates about me: The story demonstrates that I am unskilled at fence jumping and that I wore inappropriate clothing for the activity. It also demonstrates my willingness to socialise.
Children's Story
Description: It is a story about Savannah Sam and Ted Tiger who argue about whose dance is better. Eventually they decide to take the best of both their dances and make an even better one: the Feline Flamenco.
Reason of selection: I really liked this because I learned how to use Photoshop and a few other photo editing programs. I also really like the art style and the story itself.
Strengths: The story is pretty decent, although it could definitely be better. The images in the story are excellent, but a lot of people thought they were funny and that wasn't the vibe I was going for. So I would definitely spend more time trying to make the illustrations reflect what I mean better.
What it demonstrates about me: It demonstrates that I can learn new skills quickly and that I love dancing and picking out cool names (Tiger Tango, Savannah Samba, Feline Flamenco).
How to: DIY composting boxes
Description: It is a very detailed guide on how to build a wood compost box. It has several pictures (High-Res) and several VERY useful tips that I learned from building the boxes myself.
Reason: I picked this guide because I really liked building the box and I really wanted to show other peoples how to do it.
Strengths: The guide is very detailed and accurate. It has a lot of pictures that really help explain how to build the box.
What it demonstrates about me: It demonstrates my ability to build things and explain what I did. It also demonstrates a very good memory (I built the box nearly a month ago).
