The illusion of Creativity

I, Cheng Khai Wen came in contact with a topic called creativity the moment I step foot into the class mlc 1013.
The lecturer say me n my class to find out the definition of creativity. In my mind, automatically the definition of creativity is to think of plus create some new ideas to solve problems or convince a message and communicate with others.
In this world, everything,everyone are creative. Remember once we are small, we use to play with the soft toys and we arrange it into a shape of something else. Well, that is creativity.
Too bad, the society now thinks that the creative people is bunch of weirdos. That's why
most of the people afraid to be different or think different from the others. Thus, the creative people often being treated in different status as other educations level people.If we never have creative people who prepared to be wrong and come out with something weird and original, our society will never improved in what it is today.
Does school kills creativity? Well, if you ask me. I will answer NO. School didn't kill the creativity of a person. The school is just a portal or a huge wall that the person who need to pass through. I agree on school often focus on studies more then the creative side of education. But if the person who is creative enough, he/she will think of something new like "how i make my assignment different from my school-mate", "what can i do to score high marks without studying" etc etc of weird question.
For me, school didn't kills the creativity of a person. The person himself/herself is the one who kills the creativity. That's my conclusion.
Here is another thing the lecturer was us to do. Creative Image of your friend – please scan and put it in the blog with descriptions, expressions, experiences, etc. Send this image to your friend. Use the creative image your friend has done of you as your avatar/photo of you in the blog.
Here goes....
This is a picture of Charlene. Well, to be honest, she is not as what i draw here. I draw her into a tall,long hair,moe girl.(Kind of her dream height) Moe is a japanese word with the meaning of "cute". In real life, she is short in height but trying very hard to grow taller.
since i m kind of bored, i also draw myself out. As you can see, I am not as handsome and fit as what i have draw. It's just my dream to look like this.
Alright, that all for this post. Don't stop think creative !! continue to think of something weird !! If you keep on thinking of "I am not creative just because i don't have new/nice idea" then let me destroy that messed up illusion first !! Believe yourself that you are creative !!!
