Indian Epic Untextbook



I chose this particular unit by random. My favorite and lucky number is four. So, it just made sense to pick this sort. I have chosen Four Short Plays by Rabindranath Tagore. The text did seem a little blurry. It could just be my eyesight because it is really terrible. The stories were very short. They were a great read! I liked this unit.

Week Fourteen: Famous Last Words

This week, I have decided to write my famous last words early. I am really trying to make it to the finish line. It is not so easy. Right now I have been comparing life to a race. I use to run Track & Field and high school. There were many times when I did not think I would be able to make it to the finishline. No one ever wants to lose so you continue to push until the very end. If I keep this mindset, I know it will all end very well for me. 

I have so much to get done in school and outside of school. I have a paper that is due tonight for my Communication and Emotion couse, which I have been struggling with. I know that I am making the paper harder than what it really should be. My professor keeps reassuring me that I will be fine. I feel like the professors that say that are usually the ones that grade really hard. We have not had any paper assignments this semester so I am not sure how he grades. Also, those that took the course last year said that they did not have to write a paper! That is so unfair.

Outside of school, I have to get my life together. Lol. I am looking for a career position that is best for me. I do have interviews within the next few days. Please wish me luck. Thanks.

Anyways, I hope everyone is doing well. I hope you all finish this semester strong. For those that are graduating, it is almost over. I wish you all luck in your endeavours after school. The best advice that I wish someone would give me right now is that everything will be okay. You have made it this far!

Week Fourteen: Extra Reading Diary

I chose to read the Andersen unit because it had my key word, short. The first story, The Princess and the Pea, reminded me of my childhood. I remember reading this when I was younger. My friends and I would put blankets on a pea to see if we could feel it. It definitely brought back memories. I remembered the story The Emperor's New Suit. I liked this unit because it brought back so many memories.

Week Fourteen: Reading Diary B

I love the title of the first story, Queen Bee. It reminds me of Beyonce and who doesn't love Beyonce. This unit was nice in length. I appreciate that the stories were not too long. The Twelve Dancing Princesses was a good story too. I could see my storytelling assignment being based off of these  stories. The picture that I found is really great. I like all the color in it. It is very lively.

Week Fourteen: Reading Diary A

This week, I have chosen to read the Grimm (LibriVox) unit. The notes made me feel like this unit would be interesting to read. I have enjoyed this unit. The Frog and the Prince was a great story. I like the happily ever after ending. It also taught a lesson. You should always remain true to word. The princess's father was right to make her keep her word to the frog. Also, you should never judge a book by its cover. Overall, this was a great first half of the unit. The Disney make of this is my favorite princess story.
