My Creative Writing Class

Approximately 4 days ago, Monday, February 18th, 2013 was my first day of the 6th semester. Okay this was Monday, the day of which a number of souls would still feel like cling onto the dear holiday. Admittedly, at first that was exactly what happened to me too. However, that was just a temporary displeasure. I remember then that the opening subject for that Monday was Creative Writing class. The first thing comes to my mind when I heard the word Creative Writing, I was like, “Great! This subject sounds fun. I should definitely take it”. Of all the choice of subjects in my schedule, at least I feel lucky I got this enjoyable one. It's like an oasis in the middle of a desert. The first meeting was already so good, even though the class was kind of quiet. Mas Dalih, the lecturer of this class told us to make a blog as an assignment. Well, this is it. Our first assignment was the writing of five senses. He taught us that creative writing is not about telling your readers, but rather showing them of what you actually want to say. It's like dragging the readers to your world of imagination: let them see what you see, what you smell, what you taste, what you touch, and what you hear. This Creative Writing class is indeed an alternative of escapism to free your imagination. Thus, from that moment on, I felt like I got my first presupposition right. This class is gonna be amazing.
