Week 8 Comments and Feedback

-
I think the overall quality of comments and feedback that I receive on my stories are very positive. Most of my comments are encouraging rather than constructive. I find when my classmates give me suggestions or ask me questions about my story, I think deeper about what I wrote. I would rate the comments that I leave "Good" but can be better! My comments are usually encouraging but I think I should challenge my classmates more and ask them questions about the stories they write. 

I do think, when we read our classmates blogs and introductions we get a chance to get to know our classmates. Sometimes, it is hard to know your classmates when you are taking an online class. Laura did a great job on setting that part of the class up. 

I need to do more research on the story and maybe even the cultural background behind the story. It is important to know the why behind the stories to fully understand what the author is saying.

I was grateful to have the opportunity to work on a cadaver, to see what the inside of our bodies really look like. I absolutely love to cook and to garden in my spare time! Ever since I was a little girl I have always loved flowers. My grandmother and I would always spend time gardening together. My favorite flowers are Hibiscus flowers and Roses. Both of these flowers have a wonderful fragrance. Outside of gardening you ...

Demon or My Child : Week 3 Story

I can remember like yesterday, it was the happiest day of my husband and I lives. We had our first child March 13th, 2002. Her name is Mahleeyha Calvert. As a baby she was the sweetest. I can remember every morning I would walk into her room and she would have the biggest smile on her face holding onto the side of her crib waiting for me. I swear he smile was brighter than the sun shinning on California. I treasure those days because recently she's been acting like a completely different child. It scares me. It is almost like something has possessed her. I came home after work as usual and I could hear a weird tapping noise and a random scream. I ran to her room thinking someone was hurting her but she spasming out and shaking her head furiously while tapping on the window by her bed. I was shook. I did not know if I need to hold her or run. She turned around abruptly and I could see my little girl in her eyes. She then ran past me, down the stairs and went outside. She grabbed t...
