Thoughts on Class Assignments


Class Assignments:

I think that it is really interesting that we are able to choose our schedules for the semester and plan which assignments we can do on certain days. I have never had a class where I have been able to do that and it is kind of nice as I can plan my workload based on my own personal schedule. Also, the storytelling aspect of the class is really new to me and based on the examples I have seen in the class it seems like a lot of fun. It will be a completely new experience for me. I think that the "Growth Mindset" and "Famous Last Words" extra credit opportunities really appeal to me as I have never had an opportunity like this in any of my other classes before. I think that this is a great way to get more involved in the class as well as great opportunity overall.

Introduction of a Future Psychologist

Hi everyone! My Name is Rachana Rajala. I was born in Saskatoon, Canada; however, both of my parents are from India, particularly from a region known as Andhra Pradesh. I moved to the United States when I was two years and have been in Oklahoma since then. I am a currently a Senior at the University of Oklahoma. I am a psychology major and I am hoping to be a clinical psychologist who specializes in developmental and behavioral psychology.

However, last semester I was able to compose myself and be able to give a somewhat decent speech, so that would be my biggest accomplishment. Over the winter break I really didn't do any

Week Story 5: Sita's exile

                                                                    Image Details: Sita, Source: Wikimedia It was a foggy Friday morning. Lakshmana and I had to leave early in the morning so that the tabloids wouldn’t see us sneaking out of the house. He came into my room last night and told me that I had to leave with Lakshmana in the morning to go meet some constituents that could help him in the election. “Why me? Why not send Hanuman?” I looked at Rama intently. He never sent me anywhere by myself and especially after the rumors about the affair; we decided it would be better if I didn’t make any public appearances for some time. Rama ran his fingers through his hair, “I need Hanuman here, Sita. He needs to rally up the rest of our followers for the speech. Besides, the people adore you. Maybe not right now, but you need to show them that you are stronger than this.” He looked up at me and I could see tears in his eyes. I never saw him cry, even when his father told h
