Petition Letter
Petition Letter: During my second year study at Queen's university, I was fallen into depression, which is actually impact my pace and efficiency of study. Time is approximately from October 2017 to now. During my depression time, more specifically,I question myself all the time.For example, when I was programming, I usually forgot what i have done before and checked it again and again then moved forward and so on , which is actually consumed a lot of time in low-efficient study. Other point is that I could finished each quiz, test really fast, but most of the quiz i was the last one to handed in the quiz. This is because I had to consumed a great of time in each question and question each step of calculation even it is very simple. Then check all the question of quiz again and again,sometimes change most of them into a wrong answer. I can't believe that I can get that answer in just a few minutes with a simple calculation. but the fact is that it is true and can be proved by few of simple step.
Each time this emotion emerged, i would listen to the music. My song list only contain no more than 16 songs but i listened it for 5 years. The reason I focus on music is because my dream was hardly connected with it. Once my music start, i will stop anything i do. Then a complete outline of my future product could let me back to peace. This could not keep a long time, but i have try for so many times.

Chatting with professor to acquire suggestion for my dream game and begin to looking for group mates to develop it together.
