Week 8 Reading and Writing


Image source: Grandfather and granddaughter Mural Painting
This Image is one of my favorites because looking at it takes me back to my childhood and memories of my grandfather. I also like how you can see the grandfather's soft expressions and smiling as he is giving her the icecream. When I look at the little girl's face, I can see this admiration she has for her grandfather. The dalmatian trying to eat the ice cream is a plus and it gives this comedic effect to the mural.

Looking back at my reading and story posts, I can see that I still need improvement. However, for being my first time experience with writing stories I don't think my stories are too bad. I always struggle on how to write reading notes, and the "read like a writer" to me it is easiest to summarize stories and then look back at it and pick out things I feel as inspiration. I don't know if this is a good method but it has worked the best for me. My favorite type of stories to write are relationship-themed, mainly because I get inspired by shows, dramas, books and people I see. This is why ninety percent of my stories are love story themed (My favorite is Fate of Temptation!). One thing I struggle with is organizing all my thoughts and ideas and putting them together in a story. This is the reason why I am still not satisfied with my writing project I have so much in my head but struggle to put it together in writing. I hope I can find ways to fix the issue and therefore can help me improve my stories and writing skills.

In the future, I hope to go to grad school for physical therapy and work with either the elderly or children. I love science and learning about the human body. The way the human body works and manages to keep us alive is so amazing, learning all the mechanics of it is one of my favorite parts of my major.

Week 9 Story: Gandalia and Dhrit

   When Princess Gandalia was only five months old she suffered from a terrible fever. The king and queen feared for the death of their only daughter. The fever was very strong and would not go away, after two weeks the doctors were finally able to stop it however because of the length of time her body was exposed to high temperatures it caused her to go blind.     Gandalia never let her loss of sight affect her life. When she was young she played like all other children and quickly adapted living without the ability to see. If you did not know her personally you would never know she was blind. Gandalia was homeschooled as her parents feared for her safety so she never had many outside friends except for her family and the palace workers. Her favorite hobby was to read romance novels, she would often daydream about one day finding her soulmate, falling in love and living happily ever after like all the characters in her novels. She would often pester her cousins to tell her stories a
