Reflective Statement

World War One began in 1914 and it started with the assassination of the archduke of Austria-Hungary by a Serb. Austria-Hungary then declared war on Serbia, to which Serbia responded by turning to Russia for support. Eventually after many alliances there were two distinct sides, one on which was Britain. Britain, of course, being Australia's 'mother country' called on Australians for their support. There were drastic changes in Australian's attitudes over the period of WW1. Before the war, Australians were, in general, very supportive and enthusiastic about war. After WW1 began the reality of the severity of war dawned and although there was still support for the soldiers, their was a growing dissatisfaction with war especially as the death

Women have been considered inferior to men since the beginning of time. The Women in China were perceived no differently. Only in modern times have women’s social conditions begun to improve. The rise of the Chinese Communist Party saw several improvements for women’s rights. Women have been barred from participating in the political processes, banished from the fields and condemned to performing housework and having babies. The CCP viewed women as “holding up half of the sky” with men holding the other half; because of this new perception, the CCP chose to advance the female condition by not only abolishing old, barbaric practices, but by also giving women more social power by emancipating them from their husbands and fathers.

In 1998 Babalwa treated herself badly after being sexually abused by someone whom she knew and trusted. That resulted in her pregnancy.

During the interview, I expected to hear that she was married and wasn’t allowed to have friends because that is what her husband decided for her. I also expected to hear that she was forced into marriage at a young age by her parents and had no say in who she married. This was definitely not the case. I learned that although she is not allowed to date, her parents are not the one’s who ultimately decide who she marries. In her culture if a man wants to marry you, they must first go to the girl 's parents and ask for her hand. If the parents have no objection, then the parents ask the girl if she wants to marry the man. If the girl declines, then there is no wedding. Wala says that at

QUESTION: How was your understanding of Cultural and contextual considerations of the work developed through the interactive oral?

Creativity flows from our fingertips and consumes our bodies, allowing us to express our thoughts and feelings in a constructive healthy way. Life would be drab without creativity. Creativity brings people together and forces them apart in a beautiful and wretched process all at the same time. It amazes me how people can be nurtured in similar environments yet still have such unique and vast ideas and ways they express creativity. From this humanities class I have learned multiple ways on how artists use their creativity in structured forms to create their art. I can now tell when vanishing points pop up in my day to day life. For my future career, I will need to express a high level of creativity to be successful. I hope to become a dietitian, which means I will have to use my creativity every day to construct meal plans for patients. Nature and dancing have inspired my creativity. These two things go hand in hand in my life. Humanities has taught me that creativity can be found in anything and I have learned how to better understand myself and apply creativity to my personal life.
