My readings for this week have gone really well. I did some
more videos for my reading. I am actually liking them better than the readings
because I feel like I understand the stories better when they are told to me
orally and seeing images rather than reading a book. I think in general the
videos tend to be use more informal language which makes it to fully understand
the story whereas the books tend to not do this. My best writing for this week
was done for a paper I had due for my class it was also the only writing I did
this week. After doing a read through my essay (which I did because I did not
have a big enough word count) I was able to not only achieve a high enough word
count, but I was also able to read through and edit and refine my paper more
than I usually do when I write. I also feel like with the amount of writing I do
in this class and the feedback I get from that writing has made me a better
writer than I have been. My other classes are going good with the exception of
my studio which I seem to be constantly behind in, but since my final project
in that class is due in three weeks I have been determined to do better. So I made
a schedule for the order and days I should do things for that project and I also
included big dates for my other classes so I will not forget about them and
keep up with everything. As for outside of class there basically is no outside
of class for me. My goal for next week is to not procrastinate especially when
it comes to my studio class.
One day Narada had a mango and he decided to go and offer it to one of Shiva’s sons. As he was making the climb up Mount Kailasa Narada wondered which of Shiva’s sons he should give the mango to. Unable to decide, Narada came up with an idea to decide who to give the mango to. Narada finally made it to the top and sitting there were the people he had come looking for. Shiva smiled and said, “What brings you here to today, Narada?” Narada smiled at Shiva and Parvati and then turned towards their sons and said, “I came to give this mango to one of your sons. I have also made a competition to decide who gets the mango. The person who can go around the world three times before the other gets the mango.” And with that statement Kartikeya jumped onto his peacock and immediately went off. As he was going around the world Ganesha just sat there and happily watched his brother going around the world. As they sat there Parvati and Narada were wondering why Ganesha did not get up...
YES, I LOVE the procrastination meme! If that doesn't make me feel okay about sometimes being behind and procrastinating (which I thought I was over), then I don't know what does!
ReplyDeleteAlso, it's great that this class has been able to help you with your other classes as well!
I still want to watch the videos for some readings as well. Similar to you, I feel that it'd really increase my understanding.
Great job!
