Week 8 Reading and Writing

-

The writing assignments have been going pretty well for me. I enjoy the idea of storytelling with our own twist rather than a simple retelling of the same story. It's really unique in that sense. The reading assignments have been good. The hardest part is definitely how complicated and rich Ramayana and Mahabharata are. There are so many characters and stories within the story that I typically forget what is going on. For my reading notes, my first note is definitely way longer than my most recent note. I learned that with reading notes it is best for me personally to write a short, concise, and simple note. These help me the most with the storytelling assignment.

I am overall really happy with the blog and my project website. A lot of the problems or challenges of my writing are definitely the clarity and grammar. Dr. Gibbs gives really good feedbacks that really tackle these issues I have. 

The image I have chosen is a really nice modern interpretation of Ashwatthama. I really love this image as it has an "avenger" vibe to it which is my project!

Looking forward, I'd like to improve my grammar and my writing. This class has definitely been challenging me to be as creative as I can and I really want to keep that with me throughout the rest of the semester.

My name is Amy Tan. I am currently a senior studying chemical biosciences in my last semester at the University of Oklahoma. I was born in Norman, Oklahoma but I was raised most of my life in Indonesia. My family decided to move to Indonesia when I was about four years old. All I knew was Indonesia, the culture, food, language, and basically everything. I moved back to the states to pursue medicine as I do sincerely believe it is my purpose in life.  I am currently in the process of applying to medical schools which have been very hard on my mental health. I've been nothing but anxious, but also excited for what's to come. I am currently working in the emergency department at Mercy OKC wh
