A quote by Morgan Harper Nichols: One of my favorite artists and writers!  Source I am happy with my progress in the class so far. The extra credit assignments have been really helpful on boosting my grade when I did not finish an assignment! I am thankful that we have the grace period because that is usually when I finish my assignments since I work at a front desk in the morning! The class assignments that I enjoy most are writing a story after readings A and B. The changes I would like to make for the second half of the semester would be to finish assignments earlier. I was really busy in the beginning of the semester with grad school applications and taking the GRE, but after I am finished with that I have a lot more time! I would also like to change the format of my website and make it more colorful.

I have always liked to write stories, and this class gives me a lot of options on what I could write about! I am really happy with my blog. I love the layout and the pictures I included for each of my stories and posts. My project website isn't exactly how I want it right now. I want to add more photos and colors to the website because it looks a little plain for me. I also want to add a short summary of each of my stories to the home page. I saw one of the past blogs from another class which had that format, and I thought it looked really good. My reading notes have been helping me and I feel like they are able to help the reader as well. I do not have a favorite reading so far, I have honestly enjoyed all the different types of readings! The Bidpai unit was very interesting to me and my favorite story I have written would have to be the The Nightingale and the Rose (originall...
