That is what the scientist hates. So, he decided to create a monster to change the world. He started investigating a chemical solution. One day, he fed hen in front of his house as usual but the food is unusual! He took the solution to fed the hen. At the moment, the hen was giving birth. A few days later, scientist and the hen were curious why the egg is not any respond. The scientist decided to take the egg in his house and investigate it. He put the egg under the lamp. One day, thunders and lightning came. The egg was vibrating and something has happened. The egg changed its face and turned into a new thing, that is TAMAGO-CHAN!

IDJ 2 : Imagine Your Monster's City/ Home

This is the mind map of my island want to be. It explained the reasons I want to have it. All the reasons are based on what I want to have in real life but it cannot be.

As you can see, there is 4 islands around my home. Different islands represent different things to me.

The first island is actually a place to entertain my boring life. It is full of the things I love especially for the playground.

The second island is the place for me to relax my mind. Here I have a music room as music is the only thing to piss my worries away. The park and art room is also the place for me to spend my leisure time.

The third island is all about the food as I love eating. I wish to live in a city full of my favorite food.

The forth island is another place I cannot have in real life. Since I born in Malaysia, I really wish to live in a place with four seasons. So, this place actually is made of four little island which represent four different seasons.

At last, this is my sweet home, called as Witchery Island.
