Week 8: Comments & Feedback

-

Week 8 

Feedback In: I actually really enjoy reading what others have commented on, mostly my introduction because of my major and all the funny comments around that. I also like how I can give these names I see personalities so it's nice to see what everyone is saying and I respect all of their comments/opinions/feedback! I definitely find their suggestions to my storybook to help a lot like clarifying what I'm trying to say as it might make sense in my head, but not to others! Writing really isn't my strength at all so I actually find this kind of feedback to help a lot.  

Feedback Out: I know in my own comments I always try to leave one thing to improve, but I really liked how people pointed out small details that I wouldn't catch or not many would comment on. I think for myself really reading these projects in detail and commenting on those might help how I give my feedback. I usually use other student's styles of writing to kind of learn from since so many of them are so creative and fun and I love hearing about all the different ideas people have come up with. 

Blog Comments: I really enjoy my blog comments! I think tweaking my blog a little has helped me become more comfortable with other students' viewing my work and commenting on it. I think I'm happy with my introduction but I do see ways I need to work on some of the wording to clarify my ideas or at least do that within my stories (as some also suggested!) 

Looking Forward: In the feedback out I touched on ways that I wanted to improve my feedback to others. I've actually already made changes to my introduction while writing this only because I actually really took the time to read ALL the comments and work on my intro all at once while reading them. I can't wait for more feedback (since writing is definitely my weakness) and hopefully that can really help me create a great storybook!

I decided on this picture because I find my topic for the storybook to be extremely interesting but also very difficult because I want it to make sense but sometimes I feel like it does not. I know this might be difficult for me but I know it's not impossible by any means!

Introduction to my current life

Week 1   I didn't think in college i'd have to make so many blogs for my classes but surprisingly I do, and surprisingly I always never know what i'm quite doing. I find them interesting though as I am not one to write my thoughts down and I actually hoped this year that would change; it's New Years resolution for further context. As January is coming to an end and I have yet to do that, little did I know a class would help me get started.  I've waited literal *years* to take this class and it's finally here! My name is Ashley and I am finishing up my last semester at OU as an advertising major. I know the word advertising is "annoying" but I love the strategy behind all of it and its interesting to see how the world adapts through media and even just advertising. I hope I can take my major and do something big with it someday! When I'm not working or doing school stuff I actually kind of like to golf, cook and workout. I just started golfing so ob

 Week 11  The Giving Trees (Source: Three Trees ) Have you ever wondered how "mother nature" or "mother earth" ever got it's name? Mothers cherish the life that they bring into the world. They nurture it and watch it grow just like all things on earth. Mother nature experiences all aspects of life and death in a repeated cycle. It watches all forms of life grow and flourish.To truly experience it, we must examine these cycles or life and death and how it can be a beautiful thing.  There was once was two brothers who were rather mischievous. Their mother was constantly getting onto them about how often they would play and not help around the house. She was exhausted as she was very poor and had to clean, find food, and cook, just to support her family. One day she asked her sons if they would go find food as she needed to rest from working so hard that morning sewing clothes for them. The boys were furious as all they wanted to do was play games. The mother begge
