Reading Evaluation

To start off, some of my favorite readings were the children stories. I also love the Sita Sings the Blues. First off it was really weird and I like that and it was just really fun. Out of the two Epics, I would have to say the Ramayana was my favorite. Sure I hated the ending but I was more interested in the story as a whole.

The reading diaries at the beginning of the semester were a lot easier to write in my opinion. Mainly because the stories were completely new. If you started reading other things about the same thing they became a little redundant to me.

I think the balance was completely fair with the reading, writing, and commenting. I would normally do all the commenting last so it would sometimes seem like a lot but in the end it really wasn't that bad!

Reflections

One of the biggest things I took away from this course would be the use of commas! I haven't had a class using grammar in about six years and when I did I didn't pay attention. I wish I would have paid a little more attention.

It was really cool doing the projects. It was a little breath of fresh air and I really loved reading other peoples stories. I haven't been able to read for pleasure since I got to college so it is a little fun being able to fulfill that in a small way.

I also loved being able to do some creative writing! I am typically not a huge writer but sometimes I feel like I can make some pretty cool and suspenseful stories. The series about Frank and Ava were really fun to write and definitely a break from my stressful course work!
