Yay I got my idea!

After spending 3 days thinking and still came up with nothing. I think that I should change my topic. So I sent another email to Aj. Piyatat saying:

Dear Aj. Piyatat,

My definition of old and new society is my grandparent's and great grandparent vs. my and my parent society.

I'm sorry for the late reply, when you told me to focus on one particular topic. I start to question myself what should I focus on, and I have been having a very hard time trying to come up with one.

Can I change my topic?

This new topic of mine is about: more people live in the condominium, and compared to the past, this recent years the property business expands rapidly, hundreds of condominium are being built. Are more people using public transportation (BRT, BTS, MRT); do people drive less? In this photo book I'll also have graphs, and charts. Pictures with very few text on the bottom. I might call this piece "Bangkok Expansion"

Do you feel that this topic is appropriate?

Regards,

Panod Srisinsuphya

3 hours and 20 minutes passed by exactly I got a reply!

Your new idea sound pretty good, I think your idea is urban expansion & congestion. It would be a good thing to raise, why & where are we heading.
I never ask you to compare anything, so don't feel like you have to compare whatever, you only need to research & raise your topic using your photos.

With this email I began to think about the book right away.

Idea Sent!

After two days of deciding that X and Y Generation topic might be a good topic to do, I compose an email and send to Aj. Piyatat.

Dear Aj. Piyatat,

I am planning to do a photo book about X and Y Generation, showing the changes in the society in the past 60 years. How the old and new society fit into each other perfectly. How life keeps on changing.
Would this topic be usable?

Sincerely,
Panod Srisinsuphya

Quick enough 4 hours and 59 minutes later I got an email saying:

Your idea is very broad, I recommend you focus on particular topic. X & Y generation sound interesting. Do you really think Old & New society fit perfectly? What is your definition of old & new society?

Piyatat

With questions being asked, I was stunned and began to think what can I focus? But nothing that I could think of, maybe I need to change my topic, but still with this determination I keep on thinking.

Some inspirations

It has been a week, and I still couldn't be able to think of anything, until one of my friend said "comparison would work". With that in my mind I have an idea that I should do a comparison between generations, maybe X and Y Generation would work. So off I go finding informations

Project Assigned!

Today is my birthday... One of the day in a year that I don't want it to come, because my age will increase again, and this year I no longer can be called a teenager. D: :(

Today Aj. Piyatat assigned us a solo final project in which we have to make a photo book about our society, or "Social Consciousness". With that in mind I began to think of what I can do, and many hours later I still couldn't think of anything.
