Famous Last Words...Feeling the Struggle

First off....I can't believe October is right around the corner. That means its low key time to start stressing out about class assignments and exams. I definitely felt that this last week. I've noticed that when things start to pick up in my other classes I tend to put those assignments first before this class, and its not helping me at all. I told myself my best bet was to just "stock up" on points over the weekends but with work and other obligations I haven't got that far yet. Honestly, trying to catch my wave in this class is a tad bit harder than I originally thought. I start off strong in the beginning of the week but by Thursday, I'm kind of mentally dead. Usually when I get home in the evenings after school/work I am almost brain dead and reading/comprehending isn't exactly a priority. However, I believe I am going to start getting up earlier in the mornings before my other classes, to work on the projects for this class. I feel with doing this, my brain will be fresh to comprehend the stories and the lessons taught through them. So with that being said, I plan to try out my plan of "morning homework" this next week and see how it goes! I am really optimistic on it actually working, cause for one it makes me get up and out of bed on time in the mornings. For two, it will give me peace of mind for the rest of the day not having to worry about an assignment.

Overall, I really do enjoy not only the layout of this class but also how it incorporates life lessons via Growth Mindset and Learning by H.E.A.R.T. I guess when you think about it, that's also what we are getting from reading the myths and folklore. Its amazing how such short stories can have an effect on you after reading them.

The Introduction of Me!! 

Pomsky  By Kaelin Tully  Hi guys, I’m Crystel Fields! I am from Tulsa, Oklahoma and currently a super-senior (last year…woo!) majoring in Microbiology. I know what you are wondering...“Whoa, are you Pre -Med or something?”, yes I am! I chose my major not only because of it having a vast majority of the classes need to apply to medical school, but because I truly find it interesting. I love microscopic work and being able to identify what a certain bacterium is. Furthermore, I also really enjoy having the ability to work through and diagnose patients with various conditions like in a class I am currently taking called Medical Microbiology. I hope to go on to medical school within a year to become a surgeon, not sure on specific practice yet. Anyways, enough about school ha-ha, in my free time I like to do a little of everything: hangout with friends, read, craft, and of course attend OU football games! My time with friends could be spent doing anything from just staying inside

Week 4 Story: Hannah the Hedgehog

Image
Hannah the Hedgehog THERE was once a countryman who had money and plenty of land but yet he was unhappy for he had no children. One day he became so upset he said, "I will have a child, even if it be a hedgehog." However when his wife conceived that hedgehog child, the man was still unhappy. Hannah the Hedgehog saw daily how unhappy her parents were to have her and thought of an idea. "Dear father, I will ride away and never come back again only if you bring me a fiddle from the market." The father rushed off to get a fiddle and not only did he get any old fiddle, but the very best one in hopes this would make the child stay away. Hannah took the fiddle and left as she had promised for that's all she had. She went deep into the forest and managed to find home in a mulberry bush where she played her fiddle day in and day out. One day a lost King came stumbling through the forest and heard the music. He was astonished at the sound and sent a serva
