This week's reading consisted of reading both units of Adam and Eve. While I knew the story beforehand, I really enjoyed being able to retell it in my own words so that is is perhaps more attuned to contemporary language. In addition, I also worked on my storybook idea which I am really excited to begin. I think some of the stories I found regarding the Greek gods will be interesting to read, and I cannot wait to share it with my own taste. My storybook is going to present the Greek gods and other Greek mythological figures as applicants to colleges, and I will use their "college applications" to retell their stories and myths. I believe the stories of Apollo, Artemis, and Atlas that I have found will lead to some of noteworthy applications. Outside of school, I was really excited to have gone to the first football game last Sunday. I am a huge fan of night football games, and the white-out theme created a cool and new atmosphere that I had never experienced before. Even though the game was an evening kickoff, the weather was still quite hot which took away from the enjoyment of the game somewhat. Nevertheless, I am always happy about a Sooner win, and I cannot wait to go to other games this season. Next week, I am excited to begin the second part of the Classical/Biblical section as I am probably going to read the Jewish Fairy Tales. Additionally, my other classes are starting to pick up now that the semester has started to roll so that mean midterms will be beginning soon as well. I hope to use my reading as a good reprieve from my studying as I certainly enjoy reading stories and myths more than studying for microbiology and genetics.
