Topic Brainstorm

The first story I want to retell is the crocodile and the monkey one. I read the story and also did my practice story about it. I believe I could rewrite that story in 10 different ways. So that is one topic that I want to write about

Another project idea that I would like to do is Elephants. I love animals and elephants sound like something fun to write about. It says that elephants are the most distinctive animal in India and you can find a lot of elephants in the Indian storytelling tradition. Two stories that involve elephants are Ganesha and his elephant head

Another Indian topic that I would want to write about is Karma. Karma stories usually involve a good amount of action. I feel like a lot of Indian epics involve karma since Karma was started in India. I'm not sure exactly how I would want to go about writing the story but Karma would be cool to write about.

Last but not least I think it would be interesting to learn and write about Epic battles. Apparently, there are two battles the Ramayana and the Mahabharata that are battles on an epic scale. The website made an interesting point in that if I were to retell one of these stories I could write about animals who fight each other instead of humans.

Introduction to Carver's life

Hi, I'm Carver Ramey and I am currently a junior here at OU. My major is Finance and I would say the coolest part of my major is I got to go study abroad last summer and take a finance and accounting class. The best class I took last semester would be Philosophy because I was able to work ahead and complete the course two weeks before it was due. After I graduate from OU I want to go to work somewhere in the real estate field. This summer I have an internship at a commercial real estate firm in Dallas which I am very excited about. If for some reason I don't enjoy real estate I will probably try and go to law school after graduating from OU. My favorite hobby of mine is skiing. I usually go skiing once or twice a year and I have been doing that for the past 15 years whether it's with my parents or a group of friends. To make sure I keep this streak up every summer I work and save up so I can afford to go. This winter break I went to Crested Butte with a couple of my friend...

Week 7 Story: What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.

It wasn't just any regular night at the MGM Grand casino it was the night the 5 sons of the billionaire Alfred Hunter the inventor of the toothbrush. The 5 sons were there to celebrate one of their 21st birthdays. The son  whose 21st birthday  went by the name Rico. As soon as the sun went down the boys went straight to the blackjack tables. The MGM Grand casino manager knew who these boys were and knew  their large sum  of money and small knowledge of gambling techniques could win the casino a lot of money so he decided to watch them and do whatever he could to take their large fortune. As the night went on so did the partying, drink after drink these boys consumed making them even more reckless and  unstrategic  with their gambling. The manager knew it was his time to strike. The manager walked over to the group of boys and congratulated Rico on turning 21. He then went on to offer them a private gambling room with double the stakes as a birthday present ...

Learning by H.E.A.R.T Time management

One thing about this class that I need to fix is my time management. I need to not wait until Sunday night to finish all my assignments for this class because I have a lot of other work to do on Sundays. For example, I had to study for a test last night and wasn't able to finish one of my assignments because of it.
