ASA SCHAEFFER'S REFLECTIONS

​

REFLECTION ON VLOG

我觉得录音太难了！百彤和我上个星期日写了script，所以我们觉得星期一的时间可以vlog。However it was not! 我们想写caption，可是我们昨天晚上很晚录音过。要是小李老师别帮我们写script，我们的录音会糟糕。我们觉得说中文script很难看。We want the next video to be more natural, 可是小李老师觉得script很重要学中文。所以，下个录音，我们想更看看

​

In english I can be more brief:

​

1) reading the script instead of coming up with the words from my head was really hard... I cant believe how many words are crucial to grammar that I don't know

​

2) I think this is going to be a really fun project, the vlog format will be more shufu in the more "real life" scenarios, I am glad to be learning foods that I can bring home and that my partner is equally enthusiastic

​

(it turns out my brevity is better with chinese, where I know less words, rather than english, which I am better at :/ )

​

3) I am a little nervous for how well my partner and I will recieve the answers to our questions... for example, we are asking about ingredients and cooking styles, however we know none of these vocabulary words so I imagine only the grammar patterns they use will be a hint as to how we should respond. Hopefully xiao li laoshi's friends will be nice and talk slowly for us!
