Week 8 Progress

 I am content with my progress thus far into the semester, as I feel like assignments such as the story revisions help me not only improve my writing and creative thoughts, but also my grammar and overall syntax that is extremely useful for improving since it is applicable everywhere. I think I am most proud of my first story that has been revised multiple times now. I feel like I have established a secure weekly schedule of knowing when to do assignments and not letting them sneak past me very often, or at all. I always do them at night as I feel like these assignments are a good way to unwind.


I like class assignments like these, where I am reflecting on my semester. I can get a good understanding of how it going by writing my thoughts down as such. I have used some of the extra credit assignments as well, but I save them usually for the week I have missed an assignment. I have done a few assignments out of interest of the topics of those extra credit assignments, though. I feel like in terms of my blog and my website, I have become more and more creative throughout the semester by developing and building it more and more.

As of now, I would like to hope that I will get more creative throughout the semester. Other than that, I do not have any concrete things I would like to change. Pitfalls such as not completing the assignment's requirements in their entirety because I did not read the instructions well enough are what I want to avoid. I hope I can try to incorporate newer, less modern writing styles and themes in my writing in future assignments. I might add more images and new styles to by blog and website in the near future to improve it and reflect my personality and writing more!

Introduction to Z, the Microbiology major

 Hello, I am Z! My real name is Zohaib, but I go more often by Z. I am majoring in microbiology, and I am also pre-medicine. The coolest thing about my major is being able to see and learn about the unseeable - that is, until we see them under a microscope. It fascinates me how many roles microorganisms play and how large and diverse the microbial world is, and, of course, how much they affect us. The best class I took last semester was probably molecular biology class. My biggest accomplishments last semester was being able to take on a very tough semester and doing well. I did not do very much over the break; I met with some friends for food and to hang out, but most of my break was dedicated to studying for, and taking, the MCAT, the medical school entrance exam for when I apply this Spring. My favorite book series was  The Hunger Games , and my favorite movie is between  The Arrival  and  Interstellar . The best movie I have seen recently, however, has to be  Midsommar.  I also wat

Week 7 Story: The Prideful Man

Image
  The Prideful Man There once was a humble man named Thertle who tried to appreciate all parts of his life. This wasn't easy to do for him, because he did not have much that he felt he could appreciate. He was a high school drop out, his family had lost contact with him, and he had virtually no friends. That is, unless you can count Miss Goose from the famous "two-flavor" ice cream parlor, but she was friends with everyone. He wanted what she had. Not in a greedy, envious way, but in an honest way. She knew everyone, and was loved by everyone, she had a business, a family, a stable income. And most importantly, she loved life. One day, like a turtle coming out of its shell, Thertle gained the guts to approach Miss Goose in a way that led to something other than small talk. He wanted to ask how he could get started with restarting life so he could learn to appreciate it like she did.  "Miss Goose, how can I be like you? You're loving, successful, and have a family
