Storybook Favorites

I have found three very interesting storybooks from other students' blogs. One interesting storybook that I really caught my attention was about various kinds of festivals in India.

Epic Festivals of India

In the storybook, it talks about many different kinds of festivals in India. India is well-known for all kinds of interesting festivals throughout the calendar year. This storybook really has caught my attention for its interesting Indian festival picture.

I have found this picture very fascinating. There is a saying that says "a picture is worth a thousand words." I think this picture definitely explains what that means. Besides the interesting picture, the storybook also did a great job in its introduction. Jalsa, the author, explained different kinds of important annual Hindi festivals in a concise, yet clear way.

Second interesting storybook that I have found is about Hindu dating.

Hindu Lover Online

This storybook is the most interesting and fun storybook so far that I have found. It talked about several Indian gods and goddesses who were involved in love and romantic affairs. This storybook was really interesting because it can kind of deceive people as being a Hindi online dating site outwardly, but it really talks about ancient Hindu gods, goddesses, and their romantic mythology.

Third interesting storybook that I have found is about life-long love devotion of Indian women.

Lifelong Devotion

The author did a great job in explaining interesting Indian traditions and rituals in her introduction such as Karva Chauth, a ritual that Indian women fast and pray for her life partner. The author also explained the story in an interesting storytelling narrative with several characters that she has created. This storybook has been my favorite of all three storybooks by far. I think it is an very unique, creative, and interesting storybook.

Introduction to Peter the Real Estate Agent

Hi guys! I'm Peter, and I'm an OU student. I'm a junior, and I'm majoring in Communication. I believe I'm a very honest person, so I'm going to tell you why I chose to major in Communication. I honestly chose to do this major because I thought Communication would be a relative easy major. Nevertheless, it turns out that it is not! Some professors are tough and demanding, and there are lots of heavy reading, intensive writing, and several exams that I need to complete to earn an OU Communication degree. I still think Communication is a pretty cool major because I get to learn about many interesting effective communication theories. Because my major belongs to the College of Arts and Sciences, it has heavier emphasis on theory and research more than practice and application. Honestly, I don't really remember a "cool class" that I took last semester (I don't think I had any). Nonetheless, these classes, Myth Folklore and Indian Epics, ar...

Week 3 Story: PDE Ramayana Part A

The capital of ancient city of Indian subcontinent, a beautiful and glamorous place, was called Ayodhya. It lied in the country of Koshala. Koshala was known for its unique and elegant beauty just like the past Indra's well-decorated cities. The city was filled with luxurious surroundings. Large dwellings for thirsty people, beautiful and lavishly decorated diamond, silver, and gold temples and shrines, as well as mountains with rich biodiversity. Besides the luxurious and rich surroundings, there were other eye-opening and awe-awakening elements in the city. Gardens had all sorts and kinds of birds, lions, and animals like a zoo. Beautiful and exotic flowers were spread apart everywhere in the city. Bees and lotuses were everywhere. Wind blew honey bees and they produced the best-tasting honey. Birds were sitting on people's head and arms and sang occasionally to entertain people (especially women and children). It seemed almost like a Heaven on Earth. Nevertheless, ther...
