I really enjoyed this week's reading and
starting the Mahabharta. I did find it very confusing at first because of all
the characters involved in the beginning. The storyline is actually
starting to make sense after my Wednesday reading assignment. I am excited to
see what happens with the Pandavas and their quest to get revenge against Duryodhana
for taking Draupadi. I feel that it is going to be similar to the Ramayana
except that the ending will be a little happier. Also, Bhima seems to be the
best character and reminds me a lot of Rama. I am looking forward to seeing
what he does in particular. I hope he is involved in a story plot that I can
write about in next week’s storytelling.
My best writing thus far this week was my
storytelling again. I had really enjoyed the scene with Baka and Bhima. I felt
that it reminded of David and Goliath so I implemented the character of David
into my story. The main antagonist was changed to a troll so I felt that was a
good change. I really worked on paragraph length this week because I noticed my
other stories were sometimes not broken up that well. I want my readers to be
able to follow my story so I think I did a better job this week in my story. If you are curious to read my story about a young
man defeating an evil troll in a nearby town, read my story from Week 5.
My other classes have really picked up
this past week. I had my first exam of the semester on Thursday and felt I did
pretty well. I have two tests next week: Formation Evaluation on Tuesday and Reservoir
Engineering on Monday. These exams should be pretty tough so I have been
studying a ton for them. I hope I do great on these exams and start the
semester off right. Also, drilling lab is starting to really get time
consuming. We are required to write a lab report each week and they sometimes
take a little longer than desired.
Finally, I “celebrated” my 21st
birthday by studying all night. My friends and I are actually planning on going
to Top Golf this weekend so that will hopefully be really fun even though I am
not the best golfer.

Overall, this has been a very busy week. I
am looking forward to getting past these exams and reading the Mahabharata
