Time Strategies

Time management is something I have always struggled with. I spend so much time organizing calendars and writing to do lists that I do not actually follow through with my desired tasks. Just starting with the first article, I have learned so much. Creating the right environment and not focusing on small tasks before they add up are two things I struggle with. I need to implement the article involving the four questions. If I were to ask myself these questions daily, my day-to-day would be more productive and I believe that I would be less stressed. During the school semester, I never feel like I have free time. Most of the problem is because I procrastinate work. I spend more time thinking of what I have to do instead of doing it, which brings me to the next article that I am guilty of. This article is called The Myth of Too Busy. I try not to use the word busy because someone should never be too busy to spare time for those they care about, or responsibilities that need to be fulfilled. The article talks about prioritizing our time. Reading these articles has only validated what I try to avoid, and that is that I am not successful at planning my day-to-day. I will continue to work on this and hopefully improve by the end of the semester.

Week 11 Story: Dude's Bowling Ball

Dude "Well, that's just your opinion, man," replied Dude to Jesus.  Jesus was Dude's arch-nemesis. Jesus never believed in Dude's crazy outlandish ideas. Dude was an open-minded individual, who believed that anything was possible, and Jesus could not stretch his imagination that far. Jesus said, "There is no way that your bowling ball can fall through the sky and into that lava mountain or whatever you call it." Dude retorted, "It's a volcano, bro, and I can make it." Dude and Jesus lived among the clouds and this world is all they have known because for as long as they can remember, the sky people have been scared of the volcano land down below. Dude was different and he believed in magic and bowling. He thought that his bowling ball had magic powers. Walter, his friend, always had Dude's back and let's just say he was the muscle of the two knuckleheads. Walter had a little bit of a temper, so when ...

Reading Notes Part B: Faerie Queen

I had a difficult time choosing a story this week for a different reason than normal. There were too many stories that I remember as a child that I wanted to use. I missed Part A and will be writing about it in the extra credit reading for this week. I wrote about Beowulf a small amount for my project last semester before I had to withdraw, so I wanted to take a different route this semester. I chose the Faerie Queen: Britomart unit because it has so many different angles that I could use for my Lebowski-esque stories. I like the idea of Dude having a magic aspect to his personality and attributes. He is a very optimistic character in the movie and I want to bring that over in the story I write this week. I could do so many things with a magic mirror especially if I used events from the movie. I am excited. I read Faerie Queen- Britomart Unit. Stories from the Faerie Queene by Mary Macleod. You can read the story here. Faerie Queen
