Time Strategies

 I am awful at time management. I either so every assignment in one setting or I completely wait until I am flustered. There is very rarely an in between. However, I have a few things that make it easier for me to get things done. I love check lists. They are a boost in my mood when I get to cross things off but they also provide a list that you cannot ignore. I read the article about Psychology of Checklists. I thought it was very interesting because I understand the happy boost that comes from completing an item. Some days, I write things I did while I was out of the house just to make sure I get to cross it off. I know sounds crazy but it works and it makes me feel more productive and in the mood to be more productive. I, also, love agenda planners. I like to see my week at a far glance and then tackle each day as it comes. I think it is important to develop your own system and see what works for you. This semester, with everything being online, is going to be difficult. It is up to me as a person to get things done, I don't have to go into class and then get lectured. I have to make time to watch the lectures. I am ready for this challenge. I think it will help me as a person but definitely as a student.

Introduction to Me

 Hi! I am a junior at the University of Oklahoma. I am studying psychology with a health and exercise science minor. I love psychology because I think people are very interesting.

I think studying psychology has helped me immensely learn how to work with and adapt to those around me both in personal relationships and in work relationships. Over my two years, I have taken some really interesting courses. I think my favorite so far has been social psychology because I think that there is a lot to be learned about those around us. However, my most challenging class was anatomy. I learned so much about the human body and how phenomenal it is that all of these parts work together to create and function us as human beings. As interesting as it was, it was an extremely difficult course. I was pushed to the point of stress I didn't even know I had. I am a better student because of anatomy but in the moment I was overly str...

Week Fourteen Story: Furies and Heretics

Dante's Divine Comedy  translated by Tony Kline We had entered Cante 9. I heard my master saying something from behind me but I could not place it. I was distracted by a tall tower that reached far above me. I squinted trying to see better. Then, three furies flew down. They were stained with blood and holding a woman. But, she was not normal. She had green snakes coming from her scalp. They were tearing at her breast. She screamed mercilessly and attempted to swat them away. Suddenly their attention shifted towards me. They attempted to use Medusa in their attack towards me. My master told me to hide my eyes and turn my back. No matter what persuaded me otherwise. As she came towards us, there was a loud crash that shook both the banks. My master told me to focus on the mist. Only the mist. More than a thousand spirits scattered from the water. Amongst them was a Stygain ferry with dry feet. He waved the mist away with annoyance. I knew he was a messenger from Heaven. He walked to...
