Week 12: Famous Last Words

(These are personal pictures of my boyfriend's cat, Link, and me and my cat, Lucky.) Well, it's been a great semester in this class. I've really enjoyed myself in this class. I am really sad that I ave very little left to do to get my A. After this post, I just have to edit my last portfolio story and then I am done. Yay! I am really happy to be done with a class a few weeks early. It makes it much easier for me to focus on my other classes....

Week 12: Review

This week's favorite announcement came from Sunday, April 17. It's a really good growth mindset image about how we all struggle. I can agree with that. This week seems to be my struggle week because all of my classes are starting to come to a close. You know what that means... a lot of deadlines. ...

Week 12 Reading Diary A: Epified: Mahabharata Vidos

 (A screen shot of The Blind Bride video.) This week I decided to watch the Epified TV videos of the Mahabharata. I don't have much to stay on the story side of things because we have all read the Mahabharata and really know what has happened. I like to speak more about how I felt when watching it in a video format. I liked how everything seemed much more real. Reading a book allows you to imagine everything, but sometimes it is hard to...

Week 11: Review

Hi guys. This week's favorite review item came from Sunday, April 10. It is Ninja Cat v. Zombie Dinosaurs post. I know that I need to focus on improving my typing skills by typing without having so many errors. I played this few games and got weirdly hooked. You don't realize how much you're learning until you notice how much better your typing skills get. I will definitely keep using this to practice my typing. Until then, I recommend you check...

Week 11 Storytelling: Rukmini's Issue

(Rukmini and Krishna running off to get married.) Where is he? I cannot believe he is not here yet. He promised me he would be here at 6 am. It’s 8!! I am so pissed. Two days ago…. Hi! My name is Rukmini. I am the daughter of Bhishmaka, the king of Vidarbha. While I love my father, I am rather annoyed with him right now. Why? Because he made the worst decision of his life a few weeks ago. My kingdom is in dire need of help financially....

Week 11 Reading Diary B: Tales of Ancient India

(Indra wielding lightening in a battle.) This is a continuation of the Tales of Ancient India by Edmund Charles Cox. Section B was more focused on the Gods. I was really excited to read this section because I feel like I have spent a lot of time on Krishna on the first section, which was cool, but I was so ready to move on to more characters in the reading. I am going to save the reactions to Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva and Rama. I feel that I have...

Week 11 Reading Diary A: Tales of Ancient India

(Krishna and Rukmini looking very much in love.) This week I decided to read Tales of Ancient India by Edmund Charles Cox. The first half is all about Krishna and his adventures. I was really interested in learning more about Krishna because I feel like I didn't give him as much attention as I did other characters that we have read about in this class. The story that interested me the most was Krishna and Rukmini. I am intrigued at how he basically...
