Topic Brainstorming

Project Idea #1: Epic Battles
This is an theme that interests me because ancient warfare can be really intriguing, it is something that I would like to learn more of. I have no knowledge of any epic battles of India, neither real nor fiction, so it is something that I could learn about. The battles contain armies of several different animal species, including humans, monkeys, and bears, so it could be interesting. I’d like to learn some of the greatest battles, and possibly retell them using some interesting different characters or perhaps a complete plot rewrite. This is one source used previously that I would like to base my project off of.

Project Idea #2: Epic Heroes
Of course, with every epic battle comes an epic hero to fight in it. This is a theme I could also imagine doing because, once again, battles and heroes make for really great stories to retell. I'd like to learn some of the greatest heroes in the Ramayana and the Mahabharata. This past example is really insightful, I'd like to do something like this, where I can create a catalog of some of the best heroes and put them altogether.

Project Idea #3: Weapons of the Gods
Weapons, like heroes, are a great project theme to also decide on because fictional weapons are always the greatest and most far fetched. That is what makes them great. I could create a project of the best weapons of all the gods, or the weapons that are used in specific battles over time periods. This storybook is really nice, I like the layout and the theme of it. Weapons may be one of the coolest parts of the stories of gods.

Project Idea #4: Food
Food is also a great project idea, because I love to eat and also take great interest in cooking and making meals, especially from other cultures. I'd like to learn more about Indian food, because I also think it is delicious. This could perhaps help me make a list or overview of some ancient Indian food that is involved in the epics. This storybook is really cool, I like how it is set up like a cooking website, containing pictures and recipes for different foods. I'd like to be able to create something like that and then use for cooking meals.

Introduction to a Future Physical Therapist

Howdy y’all, my name is Ethan Rafferty, a 3 rd  year student at the University of Oklahoma. I’ve been a sooner fan since I was born, because my Dad attended the university, so I was raised around the culture. One could say that I was brainwashed to go here, but I truly do love the school, from the academics, to the campus, to the sports. I am 21 years old, and I am from Flower Mound, Texas, a suburb just north of Dallas. There, I was raised by my mother and father with my two sisters. I am the middle child, and also the only boy, so it was quite the experience growing up with my siblings.              My major is Health Exercise Science. I did not initially come to OU with that as my plan, but after my first semester, I realized that natural sciences and exercise physiology interested me way more than any business degree. I believe the best part about my major is that it can allow me to help others once I graduate, including rehabbing those who suffered an injury or improving someon

Week 3 Story: The Great Rock

Image
            There once was a kingdom of monkeys that lived deep within the jungle. This was The Kingdom of Vihren, where monkeys from all over the planet traveled to behold the magnificent land. The King of Virhen was a noble monkey named Jakook.                          One day, Jakook decided he would offer a test of strength for monkeys from all over the world to come try, in order to find a suitor for his monkey daughter, Sina. In front of the kingdom gates laid an enormous rock. This rock had been there for thousands of years, and it had never moved. Jakook declared that any monkey that could lift the rock could have Sina’s hand in marriage.             Monkeys from all over the lands came, including big powerful apes. However, none could move this rock. Then one morning, a monkey named Rata heard of this news. Rata had been an outcast all his life, because he had been born a blue monkey. His peculiar color always drove away all the other monkeys. Rata, however, traveled
