Week 8 Progress

1. So far I am proud of my writing for this class. I really enjoy this outlet to be creative and grow in my writing abilities. I do not have a great weekly schedule right now because I just started a new job and its thrown my whole schedule out of whack. I've been using the Growth Mindset extra credit options and the Learning by H.E.A.R.T extra credit options. Not only have they been a great way to make up points. but I've learned a lot and even found a new blog I like: Writers Write. I really enjoy creating and tailoring both my blog and my project website.

2. For the second half of the semester (are we really half-way through?) I want to be more organized and motivated.

    Hi Haley,

I enjoy the extra credit assignments as well. I will need to look through the writer’s write page more. Working on my writing is always a good thing to do.

I really love learning and Biology allows me to use more analytical parts of my brain while Religious Studies allows for some creativity. Together, I believe these two areas of study provide a well-rounded balance of coursework that keeps me busy and engaged. That being said, my favorite learning experiences in college haven't come from classes, they've come from my involvement with the Ronnie K. Irani Center for the Creation of Economic Wealth. This is an internship program that uses problem-solving tactics to consult with companies around the country. This internship has taught me professionalism and how to work with a team. This summer I had the opportunity to work with Nalco Champion as an Engineering & Sales intern! I had a blast and was able to spend my summer in California. Here...

Week 13 Story: The Palace Dogs

Image
In a great and splendid palace, belonging to mighty king, there lived two palace dogs. They were the king’s beloved companions. In the presence of their master, they were loving and obedient. When the master was not around, their character reversed and they became mischievous, pestilent things.  One night, a thunderstorm broke across the sky. The bright flashes of lightning and loud cracks of thunder filled the palace dogs with a wild passion. They broke from their collars and leashes and ran into the night. They ran throughout the royal gardens, taking special care to roll and stomp in the largest mud puddles. They bit off roses from their bush and muddied all of the fountains. In their furious frolic, they arrived at the idea to storm the throne room. The dogs ran teeth gnashing, paws muddied, and mind frenzied through the palace into the majestic court room of the king. They rolled on the rugs, tore down the tapestries, and chewed on the arm of the throne. When the room was p...
