Week 8 Progress

        I'd say I've kept up with the work in this class pretty well. It's hard for me to stick to a strict schedule because the load for each course changes each week. For example, if I have an exam on Friday, I might try to get my story done earlier in the week so I have more time to study Thursday night. The assignment we had due for Wednesday this week was actually the first post I've forgotten to do. I had two exams that day, so I think I was just a bit distracted. I haven't taken advantage of the extra credit yet, but I think I will this week to make up for my mistake. I wish that I had gotten a week ahead when the semester first started. I'm a bit stressed doing the bare minimum now, so I'm not sure if I could work ahead at this point.

        I might try to do more extra credit in future weeks. I'd also like to try to work a little bit ahead when I have free time, but I'm not sure when that would be. I want to try creating more unique stories. I'm enjoying the class and managing to keep my head above water so I'm just going to keep on trucking!

Introduction to a World Traveling Dog Loving Foodie

Hey everyone, my name's Casey. My major is Biology-Pre PA(Physician Assistant) and this is my second year at OU. I probably should have tacked on a Spanish minor as well, but I'm feeling a little stressed on time with this four-year graduation goal. I took 3 semesters of Spanish for my major, and I didn't realize how much I would miss it until now. I can feel it slipping out of my mind every day and I find myself google-translating words I used to know by heart. I'm thinking I might work on that if I don't get into PA school my first try. My boyfriend is Mexican and he nags me about continuing with Spanish because he knows I'm losing it quickly. Carlos is also the one who has pushed me to start traveling. He is the reason I went to Naples, Florida last spring break(this was the trip from my favorite place post ). Here are a couple more pictures from Florida because it was so beautiful and I'm kind of proud of my impromptu iPhone photography skills. (I...

Week 2 Story: Pygmalion and Galatea

Image
As it is well known, the goddess Aphrodite was married to Hephaestus, but carried on an affair with Ares. When Hephaestus found out about her disloyalty, there were many consequences. One of these consequences involved a human couple named Pygmalion and Galatea. He knew that Aphrodite had a special place for them in her immortal heart. He could not kill her lover, so he tore down her greatest accomplishment instead. (Image Information: Hephaestus, Aphrodite, and Ares Source: Wikimedia Commons ) Though it is not known by many, the goddess Aphrodite had a favorite pair of lovers. She had been the one to push them together and watch their love bloom. Anyone could see that Pygmalion and Galatea adored one another. Galatea was particularly beautiful. All the men watched her when she passed. However, other women could not hate her for this because her beauty was matched only by her kindness. She cared for both the young and the elderly. No unkind word ever left her mouth. Pygmalio...
