Thoughts on Assignments

This semester my goal is to finish early lol. I'm already familiar with the assignment and class layout, so I'm ready to get started! I enjoyed my system that I had last semester, but I think that this time I will do a bit less extra credit! I kind of went overboard last time, and it wasn't as enjoyable as it could have been. It felt like a requirement and it made me stressed! This time around I plan to only do the extra credit if I think it sounds fun. I also didn't write very many weekly stories last semester ( I think I only did 3). I plan to do more of those this time! I enjoy getting story feedback and comments, but it's kind of hard to do that if I don't write the stories.  I also like the new extra credit option! It sounds like a good way to get ahead while also making some time to relax and enjoy finding new material.

Week 15 Extra Credit Reading: Lang's Fairy Tales II, Part A

 These notes are based off Blue Beard which is from The Blue Fairy Book by Andrew Lang (1889).  This is a story that I've seen referenced, but I've never read it myself! It was scary. I thought the bride was going to die. She honestly got lucky I don't like that it was her brothers that saved her If I rewrote it, I would make her fight Blue Beard, or outsmart him somehow Maybe she could hide in the bloody closet and pounce on him Also, she could've just run away after she found out! Anyway, so Blue seems like a pretty sweet guy.  He has an ugly blue beard, so no one wants to marry him. They are also weirded out because a bunch of his old wives have gone missing (clue), which is fair However, with all his money, he is able to woo a new bride He went away on a trip, and gave her all the keys to his mansion She can open all the doors BUT not the secret closet (familiar rule...) She obviously goes into the closet and sees dead women. There are bodies all over the floor  ...

Introductions Are Hard

 Hello! I'm Grayce and this is my second time taking an online class with Laura! All of the information in my original introduction   is still pretty accurate, so feel free to check it out. Honestly, I'm pretty bad at talking about myself and it's just as hard while blogging 😅. This is my senior year at OU (finally!). Since I'm an older college student (25), I'm very excited to graduate. I will soon be able to start my career as an educator which is completely terrifying! Over my quarantine summer, I've been surrounding myself with plants. I have a tendency to kill things, but I've found a few varieties of houseplants (snake plant and marble pothos) that can withstand some abuse lol. If you have any gardening advice, or suggestions for plant names, let me know :)  My plant friends:  This is my Marble Queen Pothos (needs a name!) This is my Snake plant (Sansevieria), which is currently named Georgina (I'm open to renaming)  Image Information:  "Marb...
