Reading Notes Week 9 - Retelling Mahabharata, Part A

I like how there is a challenge for suiters to win the hand in marriage and that could be interesting to look into. Instead of having all five of the Pandavas brother's marry Drupada's daughter, I would only have Arjuna marry her since he is the one who won the contest. The part where Arjuna marries a sea nymph is cool and I like that he has to defeat an alligator which free's them from their cursed form. I could retell this part but have the sisters be something other than an alligator or maybe have them be mermaids instead of sea nymphs. I really liked this version of the Mahabharata more than the original.

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

Week 13 - PDE Ramayana, Part D

The fight between Rama and Ravana was fun to read and I think it would be fun to retell. Maybe make Lanka, the sage, a little angel on Rama's shoulder to help him win the battle. Possibly give Rama a golden bow that can defeat Ravana if he is shot in the heart of something cliche like that. Battles are always fun to retell.
