Feedback Thoughts

5 Tips For Taking Feedback Like A Champ: This article makes one really good point that I think will help me not only in this class, but my other classes as well.

Topic Brainstorm

Love Stories: I'm a sucker for romance so this was immediately the first topic I thought of. Usually if I read or watch anything if it doesn't even have a little bit of romance in it I don't really like it. It would be great to read these love stories and re imagine them or tell them in a different perspective. Epic Love Stories: An Opera Adventure Traveling India: I've been to India a couple of times before, but the last time I went was about ten years ago so I don't remember much.

There was an angel named Castiel and he was naive in the ways of humans. One day he was wondering around in London when he happened upon Crowley who is the king of hell and a frenemy of Castiel’s. Crowley was done with his duties as the king of hell for the day and was bored so he decided to mess with Castiel. “Castiel,” he said “The archangel Michael has broken free from the cage in hell and is trying to destroy the world. A little birdie informed me that he would be in Norman, Oklahoma in one day.” Castiel immediately turned pale and then said “I must return to heaven and inform the other angels of this.

The other angels asked what they should do and Castiel said “I must go get the Winchesters they are the only hope we have.” And so Castiel traveled to Lebanon, Kansas where his friends Sam a...

Reading Options

At first it was kind of overwhelming to look through all the resources and picking three things i'm interested in. The first thing that caught my attention was Sita Sings the Blues . This option will be interesting because there's some things you can get from videos that you can't get just from reading something. It will probably give me a different view. The second thing that interests me are comics because I feel the graphics will help me to picture the story better. The third thing are the gods and goddesses because i'm interested in learning how their paths and responsibilities all intertwine with each other. Shiva, Parvati, and baby Ganesha Wikipedia
