Creativity

For our Whole New Mind project, I really wanted to do something that would spark my creativity. There were many good ideas, but only one would personally help me to be more creative. I decided to write a mini saga on one of the things I love- golf. The activity helped me to spark my inner creativity and to become a right brain thinker. 50 words, no more or no less.

He stands on the tee, his hallowed ground. Butterflies arise in his stomach, like the hundreds of fans surrounding him penetrating his soul. As he addresses the ball, he forgets and remembers how to play the game instantaneously. It’s a battle with his mind, and he's never been more ready.

A couple of days ago in Technology class, my classmates and I were asked to create an idea about a new game using the cards that our teacher gave out to us. Each card had a word written on it and your game had to revolve around that word. Our class was working in groups and each group got three different cards. My group received the cards: "Human Rights", "Creativity" and "Sacrifice". At first, we could not think of anything, but as time progressed we realized that the three words actually make a good combination. All of a sudden our group came up with a brilliant game. The game that we created was about how people are sacrificing their jobs by boycotting them in order to earn their human rights. The game is pretty interesting and involves all the three words that were given to us. This process is called "Grow A Game" and it really helps you if you want to create a a new game from scratch or just improve one.
