Creating A Mind Map
A mind map was one of the key ingredients in creating my story; or so he said. Right then, nothing was going on in my mind, so what should I do my map on??!!!
"Interests." Came a voice from inside me (actually, it was Sir speaking that behind me, sorry for the drama...) and so I picked up a large piece of paper and wrote down in the center: INTERESTS.
Well, that one word inspired me into creating four more words: bboying, cardistry, anime, public speaking. And what did each of those words do? They formulated four words each, and each of those words gave birth to four more, and so, in a matter of half an hour, a sprawling map of my interests was in front of me.
And now, the time came to reveiw the Mind Map. Okay, what's that?
My sensei told me that I had highlighted a few certain words without my realization, and those were what were most important to me among my interests! Wow, a man's brain plays in different ways indeed! I thought, as I nodded my head in agreement, as sensei went to the other students' mind maps, which were looking as scrawny and big as mine.
Okay, that was easy, Now what? that was the question in my mind as sensei approved a few words from each student's mind maps. The answer was already in front of me, as I realized that it was time to get my behind home and do separate mind maps on my most interested interests!
Adios, college! I'm coming, my house! Oh, you, stupid traffic.....
