Week 7 Reading Notes Part A: Laos

I had trouble picking a story to read this week. I ended up picking Laos. The stories were interesting, but not as much as other weeks. I had trouble staying interested. I think I could do something with the "The Spirit - Guarded Cave." I like that the spirits were loyal the owners of the treasure even after they all passed away. This story would be easy to recreate.

I also liked "The Parrot and the Minor Bird." It would be easy to turn this into a horror story. The men were threatened by the sao bird because there was a chance that it could be smarter than them. It is explained that the parrot and minor bird only echo the words of man because of it.

The Giants' Mountain and the Temple would also be a good choice.

I have always been somewhat of a people watcher, not in a creepy way, but just fascinated by interactions some people have. I have learned quite a bit about people by doing it. I would have to say that this class last semester was my favorite. I did not get to finish due to a close family member passing away, but I enjoyed what I was able to do. I worked the majority of my break at O’Connell’s, where I still work now, so I did not get to do much over the break. IZombie, Supernatural, Dexter, The Punisher, and This is Us are just a few of my favorite TV shows. Sleeping with Other People is the best movie I have seen recently. I would not judge the movie by its name. It is actually roman...

All the Assignments...

I am intrigued by the stories we get to write about. I love reading stories from different parts of the world. I am very excited for the extra credit and I know making time for the extra credit is difficult, but worth it. I love when a professor takes the time to set up their class in such a unique way. It really shows that they love what they do and I cannot be more appreciative. I am ready to give this class my full attention. Too Tired to Function
