Week 8 Progress

I am not very happy with the progress I've made in this class. I am not doing very bad either. If I finish all my assignments this week, according to the progress chart, I will barely make with a B this week. One of the things that is affecting me the most is that I haven't got a good routine for this class. Is not that I don't have a good plan, it's just that I don't stick to it. Because of this, I end up doing most of the assignments last minute.

The class assignments that I enjoy the most are the readings, I find them very interesting. The stories are also fun, but since I am not a very good writer, I don't enjoy them as much. I am using some of the extra options, but they are mainly to make up for missed assignments. I am planning on using more extra credit to catch up and get ahead in the following weeks.

Building and developing the blog was really nice, and I've had really got the hang of it. Considering that I've never blogged before, is going pretty well. I've even got one of my friends to make her own personal blog. The website is coming along nicely, there is not a lot of things I want to change, but I'm excited about is going to look at the end. I am really glad that I have not fallen behind much on the projects.

I do have a couple of things that I want to change for the rest of the semester. I am going to focus on sticking to a routine. Since I am not doing anything particularly interesting during spring break, I want to use the time to get at least one week ahead in the class. I think getting ahead will help me a lot.

A Prosaic Introduction

Hello! My name is Kevin Monreal, I am currently a senior at OU, finally. One of the coolest things about my major, Information Studies, is the flexibility that it gives you to pursue your own path and interests. I want to use my degree to work in the IT industry, I already work part-time for OU IT where I'm obtaining valuable experience. In the future, I am hoping to focus more on the realm of cybersecurity. Last semester was a great semester for me, my two favorite classes were data mining and website design; I know they sound really boring for some people but I found them interesting, and I learned a lot. Last semester, apart from passing all my classes, a significant accomplishment was getting a 4.0 for the semester, finally bringing my GPA out of life support. I have lots of hobbies. I like to read, the most recent books that I read were "Beyond Good and Evil" by Friedrich Nietzsche, "The Alchemist" by Paulo Cohelo, and "Norse Mythology" by Neil ...

Week 2 Story: The Hare in the Moon

Source: Rabbit in the Moon . The Hare in the Moon And it came to pass the Buddha was born a Hare and lived in the woods. With him lived many friends, and he taught those friends–animals and humans alike–many wise things: that the moral law should be observed–that alms should be given to the poor–and that holy days should be kept. One day the Buddha said: "Tomorrow is a fast day. Feed any beggars that come to you by giving from your own store of food." They all consented. An old friend and Cheesemaker came to Buddha. "I have nothing to give, oh wise Hare. For I have nothing to myself. My goats and cattle ran out of good grass in my fenced fields, and I cannot let them out because a Tiger has been taking them. My animals are starving, and I cannot make any cheese."  The Hare, thinking in contemplation on the Kusha Grass said "bring them here. I shall feed them my own grass and protect them." To which the Cheesemaker replied, "oh great Har...
