Week 8 Reading and Writing

Overall, the reading and writing assignments are working out well for me. I enjoy reading the epics from India, thus I enjoy the time and effort I put into this class. I would say I am happy with my blog because my blog is full of writing from this class! The project website is turning out to be great! I was worried at the beginning of the semester when I read over the project because I didn't know if I would be motivated to create such a thing. But, now that I got the hang of the readings and the structure of the course, everything is sweet and simple. Looking back at my google site and blogger, I am content with my writing in this course. I think my biggest accomplishment was going that extra mile for my story's. When I actually try to write well I feel like my finished product does turn out pretty good. This course allows me to stay in shape with my writing skills. My favorite reading so far has to be the Ramayana because of Rama and Sita, my favorite characters. So far, the reading notes help me significantly for my stories. I specifically write my notes for the story I have in mind to retell. 


Rama and Sita from Vivian Richards on flickr.com. I chose this image because the Ramayana has been my favorite story in this course. Rama and Sita's story is so intriguing, thus I selected a picture that primarily show them.

I lived in the same house for all 21 years that I lived in Tulsa. Fun fact, I have the coordinates to that house tattooed on my right tricep. Another fun fact, my sister's also have the same tattoo! The most important thing in my life would be my family. Both of my parent's and both of my sister's have contributed significantly to my life and I will forever cherish them. I grew up playing soccer and I played throughout high school.  Fun fact, I am 6 foot 5 inches tall. Now, back to where we were.

Religion has always been important to me because it helps me have a clear mind. Nonetheless, I was raised to be disc

Week 7 Story: Arjuna's Letter to Subhadra

The published version of this story is now on my portfolio here ! Dear Subhadra,   I am still in battle against the Kauravas. The war has been balanced between both ends, but my everlasting determination has preserved my energy. I shall fight until the end with my skilled archery.  I write to you this letter to pass forward the detrimental news of the passing of Abhimanyu. Our baby boy has been taken from our chaotic earth and has earned a place with our heavenly gods.  It all started as Abhimanyu was in the forest alone on his chariot. Six warriors led by the evil Jayadratha surrounded him like coyotes and their prey. They knew he was alone and ruined his chariot, thus forcing Abhimanyu to leap out of the chariot. After my brothers noticed and analyzed the situation they quickly attempted to help their nephew. Unfortunately, Karna and Jayadratha together held off my brothers.  The situation went down the drain quickly.  With no help around, Abhimanyu stumbled on a rock because of his
