    Today, we did the marshmallow challenge with friends. It was very interesting. We are unconsciously making up a new rule, and maybe this is because we are always being tied up by rules. I learned that this tendency in society may vanish people's creativity, and I was a little bit scared about it. 

    Mr. Paterson said that it is very important to make many prototypes in a limited time. I learned that to make many prototypes, we need to keep the pasta in a shape that would be easy to make shapes. For example, our team broke our pasta into a quarter size, which made us difficult to change the form when we realized that our idea do not work properly. 

    To be honest, I even never thought of things such as asking for more pasta or researching it on google. I may think that this is because I am caring about what people would think about me "cheating".  I thought this is very interesting because the teammates should be the people who corporates and get more ideas to win in the game, but as a result, these teammates is being the people who are suppressing one's creativity.
