Week 9 Reading Part A

This week's reading is awesome! I really enjoyed reading the story of The Adventure of Prince Arjuna because it gives me more of a perspective on the things I have previously read that have featured him. The reading is chock full of adventure and insight, and I really enjoyed just diving into the story. It gave me a lot of inspiration for how to write my story this upcoming week, and how to incorporate more adventurous language into my writing. I normally stick to the same sorts of stories every week, but this week I would like to challenge myself to incorporate more dialogue and a more first-person perspective. I really hope that I am able to come back to this story later in the week for a bit of inspiration as to what to write about, and what style I should write it in.

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
