Reading Notes: Stories of Indian Gods and Heroes: Rama and Sita Part A

This week I chose to do the one week reading over the Ramayana, specifically about Rama and Sita. I will be reading the part A section today and writing some notes over that.

Rama was born and trained to be a warrior. and grew up noble
Rama and his brother Lakshman were sent to fight Ravana's warriors and they had come out in victory
Whoever could bend the bow of Janaka was promised the hand of his daughter Sita
Many men all across tried to bend it but all failed
When the bow was handed to Rama he easily was able to bend it and everyone around was shocked
Rama was sent out to marry Sita
They were madly and deeply in love
Everyone was in awe of Rama and saw him as the perfect man
Rama was exiled to the forest for 14 years and Sita begged to go with him
He begged her not to come for the forest was full of dangerous creatures
her love was too strong for him so she insisted that she came
Rama's brother Lakshman also begged to come for he would not let his brother go alone
Rama declined at first but then gave in
On the night they were leaving a crowd followed in sadness for this exile
Rama made sure to leave early the next moring to lose this innocent crowd so they would not have to suffer in the forest
Rama met many people along his journey that helped him in many ways
When Baharat was summoned as king and found out the reason. that Rama was sent away was because of his mother he was furious
He was so angry at her he wanted to curse her
He sent out troops to bring Rama back into the kingdom and crown him as king

Introduction to the not so Fabulous Life of Luda

I am a biology pre-med major and I think the coolest thing about my major would have to be that hopefully one day I can not only potentially save lives, but at least make an impact in someone's life. Last semester the best class that I took would have to be biology 2 (yes ironic), but I really do enjoy learning about all different types of biology and learning about how the body functions from something as small as the firing of a neuron and I'm excited to dive deeper into those things this semester. Although I do love biology.... organic chemistry has got to be my biggest enemy. I have never experienced a harder class in my life and I truly cannot wait to be done with that! I would have to say for accomplishments my biggest one last semester was staying healthy and avoiding getting the Coronavirus all while living in my sorority house haha. Now aside from school, some hobbies that...

Story Lab: Advice to Writers

I used this same lab a couple of weeks ago and I really enjoyed the mini advice that was given. Therefore I decided to do this lab once again to look into more advice to not only help other writers but advance my writing skills as well. All Good Books Are Alike This title really took me by surprise and that is why I chose to write about this one. I feel like most people strive to write things no one has ever written in order to stay relevant or unique, but sometimes that is not the best approach. In this small excerpt, it's not necessary to make all stories identical but to make the reader feel exactly what you are feeling. If you can mimic those exact feelings then you are a good writer. The Picture Dictates the Arrangement I liked this one because I find this to be quite accurate. If you are writing a piece and you cannot illustrate and clear and vivid image, then you have failed to make a good arrangement and everything will be spotty and in bits and pieces. In doing this you ...
