Reading Notes Week 11 - Jataka Tales

After reading Part A at first, I couldn't see myself retelling any of the stories, but I went back and spent a little more time reading them and I enjoyed the Rose-Bud story where the four princes saw the same tree just at different times, but none of them ever thought it was pretty. It would be interesting to change it from a tree to maybe a garden or something else and the people who go look at it don't think it's worth anything except the last person who sees it fully grown and it's potential.

Learning by the HEART - Sleep

Why Sleeping May Be More Important Than Studying I have always valued sleep. I've never been the kind of person who pulled all-nighters because I knew how important sleep was to me physically, mentally, and emotionally. Knowing how important sleep is already I thought it would be interesting to learn even more. Even though I knew how important sleep already was I couldn't believe how much of an impact sleep can really have - if you don't sleep you don't process and store what you're trying to learn, especially with language acquisition skills.
