Week 8 Reading and Writing

As I look back onto my previous work in this class so far, I am pleased with the way my writing and creativity has progressed. I think my writing skills have progressed in the way that I am able to come up with plots and storylines better and more easier. I also have found that I have incorporated the use of more descriptive words and dialogue which is something I look for when I read other works. I am very happy with the way my blog has turned out. I have made some cosmetic changes to the layout, but overall, I am happy with content. For my website, I am thrilled with how my idea of karma has gotten more focused and specific to karma in college settings. I think my biggest accomplishment so far in class is my growth in my writing. I am able to be more creative and clearer with what I want to say. The Ramayana has been my favorite reading so far in the class, especially the novel version, because I enjoyed the storyline and all the underlying meanings that are obvious but also the underlying meanings that can made from my own understandings. My reading notes do help jog my memory to write my own stories. I think something I can work on with my reading notes in the future is to make notes for myself, within my reading notes, of what I think would be a good story to include into my karma project or when I have an idea for a new story.

I chose the picture above as my favorite image so far from my stories. In the Ramayana, I found King Dasaratha's favoritism for Rama very interesting so this picture is from the story I wrote about Rama being sent to exile due to his father's own karma catching up to him.

Introduction to a future PA

Hi everyone, my name is Lindsey. I am a junior here at the University of Oklahoma. I am originally from the Dallas, TX area much like a big portion of the students here at OU. My major is Health and Exercise Science, pre-PA. I have always been interested in sports and sport related injuries so I plan to become a PA for an orthopedic surgeon. The coolest thing about being a Health and Exercise Science major, or any major that is on a medical track, is that you have to take anatomy here at the university. The really unique thing about OU's anatomy course is that it is with cadaver. While that may freak most people out, the opportunities OU students have with having a cadaver experience really help for later admission into medical and graduate programs. Out of all my classes I have taken so far, that class would have to be the most challenging but also the coolest experience. As I said earlier, I am a big sports girl and root for all the Dallas teams, the Dallas Stars and

Week 5 Story: The It Couple

Updated version of the story located at  College and Karma . (Express Your Love; Source:  Needpix ) At the University of Oklahoma, Ryan and Sarah were the couple to be. Everyone envied what they had and wanted a relationship like theirs, even if it meant ruining their relationship. Ryan and Sarah were juniors at the university, but the moment they locked eyes at a frat party one Halloween night during freshman year, they were hooked. It was love, and lust, at first sight. Sarah was a preacher's daughter and had only had short relationships in high school while Ryan was Mr. Popular Jock and definitely made a reputation for himself as a player. Let's just say, high school Sarah and Ryan probably would not have been a thought in anyone's mind. Sarah was the sweet, loyal girl who was friends with everyone and Ryan was the jock that was a part of the exclusive, "cool" crowd. Sarah's dad, Joe, being a preacher, was very strict and concerned about who his dau
