Week 7 Review

Image
(This picture represents another week's passing.  Photo by Chris Campbell ) This week I have backed up my blog and website. I have also reviewed my grades and the grade sheet. I am still on track to receive my desired grade at the end of the semester. My favorite graphic this week was from the blog stream section on Thursday's announcement . It was a pug floating in the pool, with the text sometimes you just have to chill. Isn't that the truth? The video I chose this week was from Saturday's announcement . It was called The Myth of the Missing Half . It was an interesting video to say the least. The theory presented was kind of bizarre, but intriguing nonetheless. I suggest y'all just go watch if for yourselves. It is a very short video.

Week 7 Story: OU vs TX Friendship

Image
I have revised  this story on my portfolio website. Please click the embedded link. Prologue: Jade was born in November of 1998 to her parents Kelly and Shaun. She was the first of two children. Today she is twenty-years-old living deep in the heart of Texas. In October of 1999, Kelly and Darren welcomed their second daughter, Hailey, into the world. Hailey is now nineteen-years-old, and she is attending college. Jade and Hailey are connected by their parents, in particular their mothers. Kelly and Kelly had met each other when they were in college. Weird enough, they happened to have the same name and the same goal of becoming a registered nurse. They became best friends. They did everything together. They eventually graduated from college, but that did not keep them apart. They both got careers at the same establishment. They moved from their small, country town to a bigger city in Texas together. Then they had their daughters eleven moths apart, so it was only na...

Reading Notes: Mahabharata, Part D

Image
The following text are my notes after reading Part D of the Mahabharata PDE Version. PDE Version of Mahabharata Part D Bhima and Duhshasana , by Donald A. Mackenzie found in Indian Myth and Legend In this episode, Bhima kills Duhshasana. There was action, however, I think the action could have been more drawn out. It was a shorter story, but to me it was definitely one of the most interesting.  It was written in third person and formatted in paragraphs. Ashwatthaman's Jewel,   by Donald A. Mackenzie found in  Indian Myth and Legend Draupadi is grieving over the death of all her sons, and demands Arjuna to take  Ashwatthaman's jewel from his forehead. Ashwatthaman's Jewel was basically his lifeline.  There was mild action in this episode. It was written half in first person and half in third person. It was also written in the format of paragraphs.

I have read part C of The Mahabharata. These are my notes. PDE Version of Mahabharata Part C  Bhima and Hanuman , by John Mandeville Macfie found in The  Mahabharata, A Summary In this episode, Bhima runs into the long living  monkey, Hanuman. Hanuman and Bhima are actually brothers. Hanuman ends up giving Bhima wise advice. There was mild action. It was written in paragraph format and completely in third person. The Court of King Virata , by Donald A. Mackenzie found in Indian Myth and Legend The five kings and their queen were sentenced to hide in plain sight for the last year of their exile. If they got caught, they had twelve more years in exile. There was mild action. It was written mostly in third person and in a paragraph layout. I found this episode super interesting. What a weird request? Krishna and His Army , by Annie Besant found in The Story of the Great War Krishna agreed to help Arjuna and Du...
