Extra Credit Reading Notes "Nachiketa a collection of stories from the Upanishads"

I decided to read "Nachiketa a collection of stories from the Upanishads". The first story is about a boy named Nachiketa who is occupied with a bunch of spiritual questions. One day when the boy's pet deer dies he wonders if there is life after death. His dad gets furious at him and sends him down to the god of death Yama. Down there Yama grants the boy three wishes. The boy's three wishes were to make his father happier, for him to be rode of hunger and thirst and for Yama to answer the question if there is life after death. After the boy gets his wishes he is sent back home. Another story is about a different young boy named Satyakama who goes and studies Gautama. Gautama sends him on a journey with cows and one of the bulls tells Satyakama where Brahma is.

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...

Time Strategies

I am very bad at time management and usually, will procrastinate all the way up to the last minute. It's a bad habit of mine and I've been doing it ever since the beginning of high school. I have had to pull many unnecessary all-nighters because of it and its a habit I need to get rid of. I would really like like to manage my time well in this class so I can get ahead and even finish the class early. For the readings, I read 4 Questions to Help You Overcome Procrastination by Peter Banerjea and How to Beat Procrastination by Caroline Webb. Both readings gave me little pointers that I could easily apply to my own life and help me better manage my time. Procrastination For some reason it was saved as a draft instead of published so its not late
