Unit 3: Project Intentions

Directions: ​Submit this document along with your Unit 3 memoir. Responses should be complete,
detailed, and clearly explain the intentions and purpose of your memoir.

1. Define the ​subject​ and ​theme​ of your memoir.

Theme of this memoir is pressure from strict school’s regulation.
The subject is rebellion.

2. Define the ​tone​ of your memoir.

My memoir William have tone shifted from worried and pressure to energetic and self-esteem
after a story passed the climax. I want to get into a good University because I was insulted that I
won’t be success in the future by the teacher that I didn’t like.

3. Describe the plot in a few sentences.

When I was in grade 8, I want to change into a new school because I hate my previous school
rule and regulation. There were too many rules. They made Meyer become low self-esteem.
Once day, my homeroom teacher was very angry at me. She told me that I will not be success in
the future because I’m not follow some school rule. Thus,I decided to change school. I was very
happy even I have to Study hard because I came from Thai program. I know what I want to be
when I grow up because I have more times to think. Finally, I got accepted into Chula University,
which is one of the top University in Thailand. I realized that if I give up on what that teacher
said to me, I won’t have a chance to prove that I’m a strong person. Even it doesn’t prove that I
will be successful in the Future but it is one step toward my future career. I am so proud of it.

4. Which goal(s) are you hoping to achieve when creating this memoir?
I hope that my memoir will give an inspiration to readers. Don’t give up on things easily unless
you will regret. Good opportunities will come into our life and give a chance to prove ourselves.

5. For Written Memoirs​:​ A memoir is a portion of your life that is crafted into a story. Explain which
storytelling techniques (characterization, symbolism, climax/resolution, sensory details, etc.)
you will use to communicate a central message or theme.

For Graphic Memoirs​: ​A memoir is a portion of your life that is crafted into a story. Explain how
visual techniques (style, color, panels, gutters, emanata) will communicate a central message or
theme.

In this memoir, I create a graphic memoir because it’s easier to illustrate the idea to
readers. I didn’t use a computer to make panels because it will be very straight line. Thus,
unstraight panels represent the rules and regulations can be flexible. Moreover, the space
between panel is different depend on how I feel pressure toward strict rules. I used many
different color to emphasize my feeling to the surrounding. For example, I often used dark color
tones when I draw the teacher because it helps to demonstrate an intense to the readers. Those
color represent my feeling such as happiness, stress and sadness.
