My Biography

This is Michael. I was born in 1472 and later died in 1550. My father was gone in my childhood. I was raised by my mother. I was a painter. All that I have to do is to paint. I paint people realistically. I love to create illusion of three-dimensions--significant paintings. And they usually wear classic and elegant clothes made by silk.
I paint in my daily life and even spent nearly my whole life to paint. Those rich men love my work so much. They would like to pay a billion dollars for my work because of my unique style. This made me famous and rich but that will not disturb my “art life”. I bought me myself a studio to give myself more space to paint.
I think that it was a good phenomenon that more well-educated people or rich man stay in Italy. It can help the financial of Italy. This made Italy to be a strong country. Besides, these people know how to determine what a good art work is.
And I was killed by lung disease because I always oil paint. I died in 1550.

the Renaissance

As we all know that the Europeans changes took place in art, literature, science, medicine and architecture; they looked things in a new way throughout the Renaissance.

We can observe that those points can be seen in Lenoardo da Vinci’s and Michelangelo’s masterpieces like The Mona Lisa and David. They both did their paintings/sculture in very different way with the days before 14th centuries. In The Mona Lisa, Lenoardo da Vinci painted in the three-dimensional way and it represents the new painting style that makes the painting looked sharper and more realistic. In David, Michelangelo also made it in a realistic way.

Besides, they both got great achievements like painter, sculptor, architect, poet.

Hierarchy

I there are many differences and familiar places between the middle ages and modern Hong Kong hierarchy.

DIFFERENCES:
1. The construction
The hierarchy of the middle ages is only one simple triangle but the hierarchy of Hong Kong is different. Due to Hong Kong is controlled by China so we have to add one more triangle upon the triangle which representing the hierarchy of Hong Kong.

2. The power change of women
After the marriage, women used to became slaves for their husband. They had to do the work of their husband also. Besides, they have to give birth to babies which we had mentioned on class about the “baby machine” thing. And nowadays, women no need to become slaves and give birth to babies. They can choose their own lifestyle.

FAMILIAR:
1. The power between people
In the middle ages, the king held everything. And this situation is familiar with Donald Tsang. Then it is following by those rich man and educated people. They have their power as middle ages does. Finally, those poor people are familiar with the bottom class which is slaves but their job functions are changed into jobs like dustman.

International Food Fair

The International Food Fair is an important yearly event for form 2 students in Methodist College. All form 2 students are responsable for this. From the perpration, making food to decoration of their own stall, they have to do by themself. And this year, the Food Fair was held in the Lower Hall, Methodist College on 17th December. All the guess had to do was :bought a coupon for $2 each and they could buy the food they like!

It is a meaningful event. All money will be sent to "Doctors without Borders". They will give the poor people sickened or hurt a chance to see doctors.

experienced experience

The International Food Fair was finally held in this afternoon. For being the best stall, I and my group members did a well preparation. None of us went away during the preparation, even though we did until 7 o’clock in the past few days. Although it was hard for us, I was enjoyable. The friendship is better than ever. As well as I love doing graffiti, and that is the first time that I did it for such big function. But after that, the nightmare came. I felt very tired. I worked for whole day and I am just going to freak out. That is very awful.
In the early morning I knew that no board will be provided. I felt fear and anger because I suppose to hang many things on the board. Then Mister Woo told us that just do what we want to do.
“Do it if you want to. You have to go and defend for yourself. This is not English anymore; this is life.” Mister Woo said.
These impressed me the most. I immediately picked up the thing which was banned by Mrs. Kwan and hanged it back. I will always remember I have to defend for myself. I learn that I’ve to do the best in every single job.
