Week 8 Comments and Feedback

I think the comments that I am receiving from other people in the class are rather constructive, and I appreciate the "human" aspect of these comments. Realizing that it may be difficult to connect with others in the class, since this is an online class, I like that I get to see some new comments each week on my introduction. I think the quality of feedback that I have been giving out has also steadily gotten better as I have gone through the class. Reading other peoples' work and giving them feedback helps me understand areas where I can improve my own writing, and realizing what kind of feedback I would like for myself helps me improve the feedback-writing process process. As for blog comments, as I mentioned before, I am quite happy with receiving new blog comments each week, and like that I get to meet new people that way. To make feedback assignments more useful to me and for others in the future, I think I would try spending more time on each piece that I am offering feedback on and working on being even more detailed than I am currently.

My reason for pairing Religious Studies and medicine stems from many things. Primarily, I came to college to learn more about people. I believe that it's impossible to be an effective healthcare provider without knowing about people and being able to interact with people. And, more specifically, I feel that religion is a foundational aspect of understand why and how people think the way they do - another consideration that can significantly impact patient-provider interactions. Having said these things, does that mean that my sole purpose of stud...

Week 3 Story: The Ordained Horse

Image
The Ordained Horse Grass tastes good. Luscious, green, dripping with dew; these images are enough to make any horse's dream. If only I could eat in peace, without those Brahmins monitoring me in the distance. They don't even eat grass, anyway! They've been following me for about a year, now. It was relatively agonizing when I first saw them. The feeling of being watched would initially never desert me; I bet you humans know exactly what I speak of. You probably wouldn't like it if you were constantly followed around with, say, a camera, would you? What was more disturbing than the fact that they were watching me at all was the fact that I didn't know why they were there. They let me roam as I pleased, let me chew on my scrumptious grass as I pleased - only under their supervision, however. Why did they need to be there at all? Eventually, I got used to it. I just let them be now, although I cannot say that I enjoy their presence. I go back to munching on my...
