Topic Research Monkey and Crocodile

The one topic I enjoyed the most was the story about the Crocodile and the monkey. I enjoyed this topic the most because I believe it's the most similar to an American children's story and it reminds me of stories I used to read. Another version of the story is that there was a mother crocodile who told her son to fetch a monkey heart for her instead of telling her lover. The son then swims to shore and tells the monkey about an Island with fresh mangos and that he would take the monkey there on his back. The other version had the male crocodile sit on a rock and wait for the monkey to step on the rock. The other version the monkey hops on the crocodiles back and then when they are in the middle of the river the crocodile tells him he's going to rip out his heart. The monkey tells the crocodile he left his heart back onshore and that they need to go get it. When they get to shore the monkey runs away leaving the crocodile son weeping.

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
