Famous Last Words Week 13

Like every other week, this week have been busy. I had some papers due in my other classes so I had to engage myself with word document. In my Organizational/ Industrial psychology class, I am currently working on a presentation. For my capstone class, I had to visit the mental hospital to go meet my patient. I actually could not go to my world music class because I got called into work early. My online classes are going well.

I can't believe there's only three weeks of school left! After that three weeks, I will no longer be a student anymore. It is crazy to think that I will be an official grown-up now! I think I will be joining the Army after my graduation. I was planning on going to nursing school, but I decided to take a break from school. I've realized that I was very exhausted from going to school and working.

Work was super busy because I had to train two new people. Other than training, work wasn't too bad. Starbucks is coming up with a new summer frappuccino called S'mores frappuccino.

I enjoyed reading other people's writing. Because it's toward the end of the semester, there weren't a lot of stories, but the ones I read were great! I had to do some revision this week for my new story. My favorite story was a story written by Khadija called "The show must go on". The story contained showed thoughts of different characters. The characters were the Pandavas, Duryodhana/Karna, The post clearly showed the protagonists and antagonists mindset. Khadija had a very unique way of writing.


I watched Fast and Furious last week, but I 've been obsessed with the song that they played at the ending scene. It is called See you again by Wiz Khalifa (feat. Charlie Puth). The song made me think of a good friend of mine who is deployed to Abu Dhabi.

Reading Diary B Week 13


  • There were so many characters involved in this week's reading.
  • It was a little hard to follow along the story because some of the characters had different characteristics and backgrounds compared to the previous book we read. The characters had similar name or went by two different names
  • Karna refused to fight anyone that was a women. I've noticed that the characters were pretty strong in their outlook on gender.
  • The story of Amba was so sad. I thought it was sad how she was rejected by King Shalwa and had no where else to go. 
  • I enjoyed reading the story of Sikhandini because there were a lot of drama within the story. Drupada wanted a son so he aske Shiva for a son, but when the child was born, it was a girl. I thought it was weird how Shiva did not know if it was a boy or a girl. The most messed up part of the story was that Drupada was going to let Sikhandin marry a girl. Although Sikhandini was raised like a boy, I am sure her body was a female body. I felt bad for Sikhandini because she probably went through identity crisis her whole life. It was nice how the Yaksha traded gender for Sikhandin.
  • I thought it was nice how Arjuna got on the same team with Sikhandin
  • Death of Bhishma contained so many imagery. The graphic was horrifying and beautiful at the same time. I thought it was crazy how he had so much arrow that his body did not even touched the ground. I thought it was beautiful how there were flower rain and water coming from the ground for Bhishma.
