(A photo of my Canvas Calendar. A screenshot by me, Hannah Mulder.) In this Tech Tip, I learned how to add an event in my own personal calendar on canvas for unofficial due dates.  I also added my Canvas calendar into my Google calendar. I did not know you could do so much with the Canvas calendar; I always just thought it was there for only official due dates of class assignments. It was interesting and helpful to find out I could add my own dates into the calendar and combine it with the other platforms of calendars that I use more often.   

(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.  Photo by Daniel Estival ) 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 exp...

(A photo of the "hangout" in the Riverdale T.V. series.  Photo provided by Wikipedia )  Another Sweetwater River Incident Jughead and Betty were sitting on the riverbank. They were swimming and having a picnic. They were enjoying each other’s company, when the Ghoulies appeared out of thin air. The Ghoulies ganged up multiple to one on Jughead. Before Jughead got to beat up he caringly pushed and ordered Betty to stay out of the violence. Betty backed away from the outbreak, but not before she grabbed her phone. Betty knew Jughead did not stand a chance when there was only one of him and at least fifteen Ghoulies, so she called in reinforcements. Jughead was nearly knocked completely out by the end of the attack, or at least what Betty thought was the end, he was hanging on by a thread. Even though Jughead was barely conscious, he was not strong enough to fight for himself. At that point his future was not looking good.  The Ghoulies knew that Jughe...

Epified: Mahabharata Videos Part B A Summary of What Went Down We started where we left on in part A. Kunthi had a big secret. That secret was that she had a long-lost son that she put in basket and sent it down a river. Pandu, Kunti, and Madri retreated to the forest. Pandu was hunting one day and shot a hermit couple. The hermit man cursed Pandu. The curse was that Pandu would die if he had intimate relations with a woman. Kunti uses her gift to call upon god to bear children. Kunti has 3 sons of her own and called upon the god sone last time to give Madri her twin sons. Pandu dies of his curse, leaving Kunthi with the 5 sons. Gandhari's first pregnancy ended up as an abiotic lump instead of a child. The lump was taken and split into 100 pieces, which turned into Gandhari's 100 sons. Kunti and the Pandavas returned to the kingdom, this made Duryodhan angry. Duryodhan decided he was going to poison the Pandava brothers. Only...

Epified: Mahabharata Videos I chose this "reading" because I am  visual learner and knew that this version would allow me to get a better understanding of The Mahabharata. Part A An overview of The Mahabharata It is the story of the Spirit of India. The whole thing is about how karma works. The idea everything happens because of previous events. A Summary of the Stories Bhishma is the long lost son of King Shantanu. King Shantanu goes back to the Ganga to find his son years later, therefore, Bhishma was grown. King Shantanu fell in love with a fisherman's daughter, but the fisherman refused to allow King Shantanu to marry his daughter. Bhishma vowed that he would never marry or sire any children, so his father could be happily married. One of Bhishma's brothers passed away leaving only one of them left to sire an heir, so Bhishma kidnaps three princesses from a different kingdom to become the wives of his one remaining brother. One of the princesses,...
