Reflective

I’ve learned that the importance of providing the basic needs for a person in a limited space. This project was conducted in groups so many there may be conflicts between the opinions of the groupmates. We've discussed about the activities and the shape, and this project ended quite well at last. I've learned to compromised to others and also be more contribute to the group and so that the result can be satisfied by all groupmates.
