Reflecting on a Fruitful Semester

Note: this site is an archive of the work produced by Winslow Wanglee over the course of the spring 2020 semester at Emory in English 101 Throughout my semester in Professor Morgen’s English 101 class, I have thoroughly developed my skills as a writer in ways I could not have foreseen. The unique structure of

The Last of Us Podcast Reflection

For this Podcast I was the assistant producer, Greg Lawrence was the lead producer and Michael Mariam was the line producer. Greg and I began the process of creating the podcast by conversing about the games we have played. When he suggested The Last of Us I was immediately intrigued, having loved the story after

Ferris Bueller’s Outro

For my iconic movie moment, I decided to recreate the after credits scene from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off where he tells the audience to go away because the movie is over. This is one of the most iconic examples of breaking the fourth wall in a unique and funny way to end a great movie.

The English 101 Menu

I decided to make an assembly using the structure of a menu, with various appetizers, entrees, and drinks and deserts. The appetizers laid the foundation for our learning in class, and included many of our early readings about gaming and gamefullness. In these readings we learned how to define games and make sense of games,

Pantception

For my extraordinary idea of what to do with trousers, I decided to see how many I could fit on myself before cutting off the blood circulation to my feet. I used the plethora of pants at my disposal: I started with shorts, then skinny jeans, then regular jeans, then khakis (buttons stopped working at

Improvised minigolf

In order to make my kitchen into a sporting arena, I took my dad’s golf driver (decidedly not a putter, as I couldn’t find it) and a golf ball. I decided to also use a cup in place of a regular hole because I don’t have a putting set – I’ve only played golf (real

Code Grey

For my camouflage attempt, I tried to keep it simple by hiding myself with one color: grey. Camouflaging myself in multiple colors I figured would be too hard to match each color and wouldn’t work well. Luckily I have a chaise lounge in my house that’s all grey and I have many grey clothes (my

Jacuzzi Misadventures

Side note: for this assignment, I originally wanted to use the jacuzzi setting on my parent’s bathtub to create a hot-tub party, but things went quite awry. I rarely use their bathtub and I hadn’t used the jacuzzi setting in years, so little did I know what would happen. I filled the tub up to

Tennis Trick Shot

Here’s a link to my shot: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sB4vVP5uH3P_egxBtaSyCUYUOZPYaenZ/view?usp=sharing I decided I wanted to do some sort of trick shot with a tennis racket, because I have plenty of rackets since I used to play tennis on a regular basis. At first I tried to hit it off walls, the ceiling, or a fan, but after trying

Podcast Reflection

I began the process for making my podcast with the idea of nostalgia in video games. I thought that revisiting games from my childhood would be a good starting point. My main two ideas for games were Runescape and Minecraft, but since my associate producer Michael never played Runescape, we settled on Minecraft as the
