Reading Notes over Narayan's Ramayana - Part B

Continued from Week A's part, this starts with Rama's exile. I love the comrardary his brother shows and insists on coming with him. I would probably change the chariot to a cool car or possibly a hippogriff. Another part of this story that I liked was the introduction of Ravana through his sister, even though it was a little grotesque to read about the mutilation but I liked the battle showing Rama's strength as well as how his brother protects him. If I choose to retell this part of the Ramayana, I probably would change the mutilation to something less disturbing. Part B, ends with the cliff hanger of Sita being alone and wondering if she would be abducted. If Part C continues with Sita's plot line of her abduction and Rama looking for her, I believe that could make for a very interesting retell of the story as maybe a Law & Order theme or CSI.

I'm majoring in Psychology and minoring in Human Relations and I plan on going to graduate school for Higher Education Administration after I graduate and work in student affairs and hopefully eventually become a dean of a college! This semester I am taking a graduate class from OU's Adult and Higher Ed program, and I am a little nervous about it, but mainly excited since it's what I want to do as my career. I am also a TA for a gateway class, which I think is going to make for a great semester.  In my spare time I enjoy reading (Harry Potter is my favorite ), listening to Broadway soundtracks (Hamilton, Book of Mormon, Wicked, and so many more), getting overly attached to fictional TV show characters because I love Netflix (Doctor Who, The Office - which I am actually watching as a wr

Growth Mindset: Cats

Using the randomizer I found a couple of cats that I really liked either because they were cute, funny, relatable, or all of the above! The first one was adorable and very accurate. I've found the more I write the better I get at it, especially when it comes to my personal statements. The second meme made me laugh. I've always been a goal setter and while it can be sad to miss your goal it's good to even get close to reaching it because there is always next time! Cat Meme 1 Cat Meme 2
