 Growth Mindset Challenge #9
Growth Mindset Cats: Pinterest. Learn how to use Pinterest to explore the growth mindset cats and choose your favorites. (You don't need a Pinterest account for this assignment... but you might decide you want to use Pinterest yourself after you give this a try: it's a fun tool!)

 Even though I am allergic to Cats, I have decided to do this challenge for motivational purposes.
I took way too much time scrolling through Pintrest looking at Cat pictures. The ones I chose are the ones that are going to give me the most motivation. I want to be able to look back at this blog post when I feel I just can't do it anymore. We know the good things in like don't come easy but don't let that stop you! You are your biggest obstacle. Once you get yourself a positive and healthy mindset the world could be your Oyster!

    Hi Megan. I saw the warning about extreme cats and clicked "read more." Didn't expect this many cats but I'm not complaining haha. The cats in the picture that says "Everyone is born with an intense desire to learn" has the cutest cats of all these pictures in my opinion. As far as which quote I enjoy most, I really like the one that says "Your abilities are NOT carved in stone." I feel like a lot of people need to keep this in mind to prevent themselves from being discouraged when it comes to trying something new or facing a difficult challenge.

Weekly Review: Essays are Coming (Extra Credit)

Weekly Review The reading for me went great this week. I really enjoyed both of the readings. Tartuffe was probably my favorite because it had a lot of drama, which is so fun for me. I did like The Song of Ch’un-Hyang but it made me a sad when she was beaten so badly. I loved Ch’un-Hyangs passion though; the love for her husband was unconditional. They never made me feel bored or felt like it was dragging on which is always good! I’m sure all the readings will interest me. My best writing this week was probably in this class with my reading notes. I took a lot of time to make sure my notes were nicely written so I would be able to look at them in the future and be able to understand the reading. A good strategy for me is to pause in the reading and take notes as I go along, so I know exactly what I was thinking in that moment. And how my feelings change throughout the story. A lot of peoples work has been standing out to me, we have a lot of great writers in t...

Week 3, Analysis

Week 3 Analysis  - Tartuffe Themes In this story we see multiple themes. Some of them are Hypocrisy, Love, Family and Religion. I saw these through out the whole reading. Hypocrisy is the main theme for me. We saw it a lot. Every one called Tartuffe a hypocrite because they thought he acted pure and godly but they said it was all fake. They also called him a hypocrite because he had a "following" but was lusting after another mans wife. This is the definition of a hypocrite, going against your own words. We also see Love. At first Orgon had such a strong brotherly love for Tartuffe. He even went against his family to give Tartuffe the deed to their property. He also tried to force his daughter into marriage with Tartuffe. I believe Orgon has a big heart and it shows. He wants to see the good in Tartuffe when every one was rooting against him. We also know thatTartuffe has a fascination for Orgon's Wife, Elmire which could be considered to be under this theme.  Famil...
