Week 8 Class Progress

 

1. Looking back. Are you happy with your progress so far? What are you most proud of? Do you have a good weekly routine? What are the class assignments that you enjoy the most? Are you using any of the extra credit options? How have things gone in terms of developing your blog and building your website? 

     - So far, the end of week points will be 7 points short of an A in the class. Although I am unhappy with my progress, I am still proud of myself for making it this far. My weekly routine is sort of a hot mess, and I am not necessarily happy with the lack of progress I have made. The class assignments I enjoy the most are these types of assignments, where I am forced to reflect. I often move so quickly through the week that I realize I have basically zombie walked through the entire thing. I am going to have to use some extra credit options to make sure that I get back on track, but 7 points will not be too difficult to make up. Things are going well with developing my blog, I think. I am excited to see how things progress because last semester I took the P/NP option for this course, got a C, and just ended things so that I would have more time for hectic life. 

2. Looking forward. Are there any changes you want to make for the second half of the semester? Any pitfalls you want to avoid? Something new you want to try in your writing? Anything you want to change about your blog or your project website?

    - There are certainly a lot of things I would like to change for this class. I think my entire course as a whole has really suffered due to how spread thin I am with my time with working two jobs. I am looking forward to being able to see how my website progresses, and how I am able to alter my site to best fit my vision. I want to avoid falling dangerously behind again, I am pretty disappointed with how far behind I have been getting myself. There are no major changes I want to make right now, I am pretty happy with how things look, all things considered.

Introduction to a Women's Wrestling Coach and Future Teacher

  Introduction to a Women's Wrestling Coach and Future Teacher     Hey everyone! My name is Mikayla Chandler. I am a secondary language arts education major going into my senior year here at OU. In addition to being a full-time student, I am also in my first year of coaching wrestling. Although I am a coach on a team of boys and girls, I primarily focus on my attention on the ladies on the team. Although I chose to not wrestling in college, I spent the majority of my life around wrestling and was competitive from ages 10 to 18. I was born and raised here in Norman, so it has always been a dream of mine to obtain a degree from OU. I have one dog but would certainly love to get more. Her name is Verona and she is a Lab/Pitbull mix that showed up one day and never left. One of my major interests is in American Sign Language; I took two years in college and I wish I could afford to take more classes. I love knowing another language, it makes me feel more connected to the world. I just

Week Four Story: The Bridge

      The bridge between the Mainland and Lanka is a magical sight. This is Rama's bridge. Although it has been thousands of years since the creation of the bridge connecting the two regions, the bridge is still used by many. People say it used to connect what is now Sri Lanka and India, the gorgeous limestone meets the rock and the earth so wonderfully. It is mostly a tourist spot now, but peoples say that the rocky islands were constructed by Nala, son of  Vishwakarman , the "divine artisan," in order to allow enemies to cross the ocean. This was allegedly demanded by the God of Ocean to keep things fair and reasonable. This small series of islands that create a land bridge between the two countries serves a special purpose in my life, however. I grew up along this land bridge, and I know more secrets of the bridge than many. I know what wars have been fought and won because of this bridge. I know of what Rama and Sita faced during the creation of this bridge, and the p
