1. Gossip Girl Ayodhya
   First impressions of a story are often given by the title. For this storybook, I am not sure what to expect from just seeing the title alone. I am not sure what Ayodhya is, is it a town? The name of a person? Outside of not knowing Ayodhya, the theme of using Gossip Girl will ensure that their story will have a lot of drama.
   After going to the introduction, everything becomes clearer. I liked how the author uses the color blocking to separate the text; I would like to use this on my own blog. Also, using a popular show to explain the epic was a good idea. This makes the material easier to understand.

2. Gambling & Curses Lose: Real Love Wins
   The title of this blog implies that the author will explain a love story. From first glances, I like how they set up their blog. It looks very put together and easy to navigate. When it comes to the images that the author used, it makes very well with their theme.
   After reading the introduction, I am able to understand the direction of their story. I became very intrigued by the story of Nala and Damayanti. Overall, I had a very good impression of this blog of the storybook.
3. Stories of the Wild West
   Lawless...adventure...these are the words that come to mind when I think of the wild west. After reading the introduction, the title starts to make more sense. The characters in the Epic are seen as outlaws with an American backdrop. I like how the author made a more related scenario. I would like to apply this style to my writings as well. But, in comparison to the other storybooks, this blog has one less section. I like having the 3 parts of a story rather than two. It makes the story seem more complete.

Introduction to a Traveler

(Image Information: personal photo me in Taiwan; photo from June 2017.)     Hello Everyone! My name is Kelsea Long. I am currently a senior at the University of Oklahoma majoring in International Studies with 3 minors.   Throughout my time at OU, I have had the opportunity to study abroad 2 times. I chose to go to Seoul, South Korea each time. I started learning Korean at a young age, so I was able to adjust to Korean life very fast. During my stay there, I was not only a student, but I also worked at an NGO in marketing to help with North Korean defectors. This experience for me really changed my point of view because I was able to learn about other cultures while learning more about myself.    As soon as I turned 18, I did not know what to do with my life, I always followed what my friends were doing. But, when I first studied abroad, I wanted to take the time to learn what I wanted to do and what makes me happy. This drive helped me to...

Why Sleeping May Be More Important Than Studying By  Katrina Schwartz One thing that I already knew about sleep was that it is important to your mental health. But, it is very challenging to get the right about of sleep every night. One new thing that I learned while reading this article was that many children are facing serious sleep derivation issues. This is affects test scores around the country. The study conducted was to see what happens with a child is able to properly rest. By sleeping, children are able to retain and recall more information. One thing that this article has inspired me to do is to stop cramming. By cramming in essays or projects at the last minute, I am not able to sleep overnight. This leads to my work not having as good of quality and my personality changes depending on how tired I am.
