Week 8 Progress

 I feel great about my progress so far this semester. When I took Mythology and Folklore, I did not take advantage of beginning the class before the semester, so I really wanted to make sure that I do so with Indian Epics. Having the free time before school gave me the freedom to complete as much as possible, but with school starting now, I have to limit myself and find a more weekly routine. So far my favorite assignments have been the Microfiction. It is such a creative assignment and really challenges me to carefully select words to fit the 100 word requirement. I really wished I had it for Mythology and Folklore! Overall, I am happy with what I have done, especially with my blog and website,, and I look forward to finishing off strongly this semester. My goals are to make sure I do not slack off even with my progress and to maintain a weekly routine.

Kobe Bryant has always been one of my favorite athletes and his Mamba Mentality would want me to finish the class strong!

Nice to meet you, my name is Neal

 Wow. It is crazy to think that I am already back in Norman for my senior year. While my first threes years were full of unique experiences, I never would have imagined all of these recent events occurring. Although it has been a struggle to get through the pandemic, as I am sure everyone can agree with, I am looking forward to completing my senior year and pursuing my future. To start off, I am psychology major on the pre medicine track. Ever since I took psychology in high school I found studying the mind and the way people act so interesting. However, I always had the goal of becoming a physician which explains the pre-med track.  Although I am an OU student, I still consider myself a proud Texan. I come from a relatively small town in East Texas where high school football is king and perhaps the most famous thing is that Matthew Mccounaughey graduated from my high school (he even came to our high school graduation this year to give a speech!).

Week 4 Microfiction: Indian demigods meet Percy Jackson

100 Word Story : Percy staggered through the forest until he came upon an unfamiliar sight. Appearing before him was a camp almost exactly like Camp-Half Blood.  As he entered the gates, he was met by many demigods. They introduced themselves as sons and daughters of Hindu gods and how excited they were to meet Poseidon's son.  Soon the headmaster of the camp, Guru Venkaswami approached Percy. He had asked Percy to arrive to the camp, so that he could join forces in their fight against the fearsome Rakshi.  Together Percy and Rahul, son of Indra, would attempt to defeat the evil demon. Two sentence story: Percy Jackson arrived to the Hindu Demigod Camp in need of assistance. Rahul, son of Indra, and Percy would travel together to defeat the Rakshi demon.  Sources: There was no particular source for this story other than my previous readings of Percy Jackson and Indian stories.  Author's Note: I am a big Percy Jackson fan, so I thought it would be cool to introduce the story to
