Ingrained Thinking — A script adaptation of an original narrative piece exploring the influence of traditional culture on individual thought patterns. (See detailed project below).

Project Title: Ingrained Thinking – Narrative & Script Adaptation Context: An original short piece exploring the psychological impact of traditional culture on individual thinking.

Overview: This project explores the internal mechanics of how traditional cultural values can "ingrain" certain thought patterns. Originally written as a short narrative, it was later adapted into a formal script to visualize the subtext and dialogue inherent in these cultural tensions.

Objective: To demonstrate the conflict between traditional superstitions and modern survival. The script uses the format of a dramatic scene to highlight the invisible influence of tradition—specifically the belief that visiting a hospital during Chinese New Year brings "bad luck," contrasted against the mechanical failure of a life-saving medical device.

Narrative Analysis: The central irony of the story lies in the "Pacemaker" vs. "Tradition." Ying believes that the hospital is bad luck, yet her life is saved by a mechanical battery that relies on the physical activity she refused to perform. This work demonstrates my ability to handle sensitive cultural themes and structure them into a professional script format.
