Famous Last Words: My Second Week Progress

This semester has started out great for me so far. Specifically for this class my focus is now getting ahead with the class like I had planned during Week 1. The writing has been great and I love that I am able to use my creativity while writing my stories. I can not wait to start reading the Ramayana either today or during the weekend sometime. My goal is to get ahead in this class and I hope with growth mindset I am developing I am able to accomplish this goal.

My best writing this week was actually for my class called the "Crusades". We had to read a epic poem called The Song of Roland which had plenty of fighting and gore if anyone is interested. The writing involved a comparison between choices made between two of the main characters. Roland had to make a choice between sounding the Oliphant when the Saracens were approaching his army or keep his pride and not sound his Oliphant possibly risking more of his soldiers lives. I strongly recommend reading that if anyone likes older French epics. This class also had plenty of great writing. I would say the story during Week 2 would be my second best writing this week.

In addition, I loved reading other peoples introduction posts. I found so many similarities between me and other students beyond schoolwork. In spite of the recent events that have been happening at OU this past week, no matter what view people have towards one another, there are many similarities amongst all of us no matter how people try to categorize one another. I am thankful that I have had a good experience within the OU community, and I along with others want everyone to also have a great experience. Overall, I hope everybody has been having a good week.
