Week 8 Progress

I did not start off great as far as keeping a regular schedule going for this class.  The first couple of weeks, my projects were almost always turned in on Monday morning, and I actually did not do the project for the first week, keeping me back by a whole week.  Eventually, however, I started to get a more regular schedule, using the time that I had between classes on Monday and Tuesday to finish all of the other assignments.  Then I would do the project and feedback either on Thursday or Friday.  I feel much better about that kind of system that I have now than what I was doing before.
Looking forward, I hope to keep up this kind of schedule, wherein all of the other assignments are done by Wednesday and my project and feedback are done by Friday.  This lets me keep my free weekends and enjoy going out and football as well.

This image really spoke to me and helped ignite a small spark of motivation deep within me.

The next story was a delightful tale of the devil, who decides that it is high time he should marry a young woman.  He builds a wonderful house on top of a portal to Hell, and through his trickery, convinces two of three sisters...

Storytelling "The Sun and the Wind"

There once was a very happy traveler who had just gone to visit his parents in a far-off province.  He had spent about a week there, a happy time, and was cheerfully returning to his wife and children who were awaiting him at home.  To further bolster his spirits, the weather looked absolutely beautiful.  The sun was shining, but not too harsh, and with the slightly chilly air he felt completely comfortable with his jacket wrapped around his shoulders. While he walked, he marveled at the beautiful scenery around him and listened to the humming of the insects and the sweet singing of the birds.  Before he had departed, his dear mother had given him a heavy travelling coat that she said would be sure to protect him from the rain, cold, and anything else he encountered.  He thanked her at the time but now it looked like her gift would not be required.  He carried on walking, whistling as he went. The harder the wind blew, the tighter the man wrapped his ...
