I think that this week was my best writing for this
class! I wrote about Sita’s exile. I felt that this writing was especially
strong, because my sister is pregnant like Sita, so I know of some of the fears
that Jessica, my sister is experiencing. I tried to really capture the maternal
instinct that Sita would have felt. For my storybook, I have chosen to write
about some of the good asuras. Vibhishana, Trijata, Mareecha (not quite good,
but he tried to be), and Viradha have made it into my storybook, Asuras
Anonymous! I really considered doing a user’s choice storybook which I did last
year, but I decided not to because I wanted to be able to focus on more
characters. Asuras Anonymous is supposed to be sort of like Alcoholics
Anonymous so I think it will be an interesting storytelling style!
In my other classes, I had my first test this week
in Nutrition. It wasn’t too difficult, and I have really enjoyed the class. I
definitely wouldn’t say I eat super healthy or anything, but through this
class, I have changed my diet a little bit and really tried to add fiber into
my diet and cut back on soda. I would like to cut out soda completely, but I
just like it too much! I find that I am experiencing a little bit of
Senioritis. Symptoms include severe lack of motivation, failure to study, and
can lead to long all-nighters the day before assignments are due. My Senioritis
has been especially severe in my Biochemical Methods Lab. I just really hate
writing lab reports. I actually still need to write mine which is due on
Tuesday at 1:30. You would think I have plenty of time, but I pretty much work
all day tomorrow.
Outside of school, I went to a murder mystery dinner
with my family and boyfriend. Austin and I were these young characters who were
in love and engaged, but then we found out that our characters were first
cousins, so that was awkward. Austin’s character was also only with me for my “family’s”
money. Scandalous, right? All of the characters had these terrible secrets, and
you would not believe how many of them were cheating on their significant
others! It was a really fun night though, and I really enjoyed it! My dad’s character
ended up being the murderer! Although, I had at one time pushed the victim down
the stairs, so I was definitely a main suspect. If you want to do a murder
mystery, there is one in Guthrie, OK at the Stone Lion Inn, and I would
definitely recommend it!
