Week 9 Review

(A photo of a watch, which to me represents time is ticking and we are getting closer and closer to the end of the semester. 

This week I have backed up my portfolio website and my blog. As of right now I am still on track to get the grade I desire at the end of the semester. 

My favorite graphic this week was from Wednesday's announcement. It was under the writing section of the announcement. The photo said, "Writing does not have to be perfect to be wonderful." I think it was a nice little reminder that just because I am not the best writer does not mean I cannot produce great works in this class.

The video I liked the most this week was also from Wednesday's announcement. The video I watched was called Manish Vyas, about Santoor. I like to use the announcements as a way to learn more about the Indian culture. This video was about an ancient musical instrument with Indian origins. The video explained the structure of the instrument, and where people could traditionally find the santoor in use. There were also some other fun facts about the santoor throughout the video. I thought this was a really interesting video.

Week 3 Story: Rama and Sita's Story of Love at First Sight

Image
(A photo of Sita in statue form. I picked this photo because this story is Sita's introduction. Photo by Ye-Zu ) The daylight had not turned into complete darkness, but the sun was slowly seeping into the ground. Rama and Lakshmana were eager to explore the new city that was near them, but they needed permission to leave Vishvamitra, so they asked and were allowed to enter into the city. It might have been getting dark, but the city was still lively as ever; people were crowding the streets. The people starred at Rama and Lakshmana with curiosity. The princes were dressed in bright colors, with flashy accessories, and they were carrying weapons. Girls and women all through the city were taking notice of the fine looking princes and buzzing to each other about them.
