I am a little behind this week because I was out of town the
past weekend so I did not get much homework done over the weekend. Because of
this I have been catching up all week and consequently was not able to do a lot
of the reading for this week. I did the storytelling though. I really enjoyed
doing the storytelling this week. My story was based off of “Mira’s Bridegroom”
from the Indian Fables and Folklore by Shovona Devi. My favorite thing about
this story was the innocence and simplicity of it. It about a young girl who
gets a doll as a gift from her father. She begins to form a strong attachment
to the doll even as she grows up. I made my story more into a romantic story
and intertwined a little Alladin in it. It was fun to write it.
My other classes are going well so far. Thanksgiving is next
week and then finals will be here before I know it. I am a little stressed out
about finals. I am trying to finish this course a little early so that I can
save time to study for my other classes but because of busy schedule, it has
been a little difficult. Hopefully before dead I can get this class done. I
will miss this class though. I have enjoyed reading the stories and fables. I
took mythology and folklore class semester, which is taught by the same
instructor Laura Gibbs. I enjoy these kind of courses because not only do you
get to manage your time but get to also learn a lot from the stories. I have
not really noticed any connections between this class and my other classes. My
other classes are all science and psychology courses so they do not really have
a lot in common with an Indians Epic class.

I know exactly how you're feeling! I am falling behind as well because I didn’t get much done the past weekend either. I was kind of distracted all of yesterday because of the football game and ended up sleeping in way too late today. I too would also like to get this class done with before dead week gets here, but I’m not sure if I’ll be able to get all of that done in time.
