Reading Notes: Dasharatha's Sons Part A

Characters in the Scene:
King Dasharatha
Kaushalya
Kaikeyi
Brahma
Vishnu
Shiva
Indra

Plot:
King Dasharatha and Kaushalya conduct a horse sacrifice to please the gods so they can have sons.

Setting:
The north bank of the Sarayu river

Story Idea: 
I didn't really like the actual killing of the horse. I understand the background of sacrifices but I could change the story to just letting the horse roam free and wild as the sacrifice. I also think in order to continue their race, they might need more kids then just four.

Introduction

My name is Erin Tabberer, I am a public relations major with a minor in enterprise studies. That's me above with the cutest dog I've ever seen that's not mine unfortunately. The coolest thing about my major is that I get to talk to so many people and learn new things about them everyday. The best class I took last semester was my crisis communication class because I find it really interesting and fun to be forced to communication quickly and well under pressure. My biggest accomplishment last semester was becoming the Public Relations Director for Lindsey + Asp, the student-run public relations and advertising firm. I coordinate six different client teams and it's like a real job! We work with several of the OU Athletic team, Fathom Travel and FCCA which are companies of Carnival Corporation. We also run day of social media for the Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon and have to be at the event at 3:00 AM. The picture above is the previous Public Relations Director

New York City, My Favorite Place

Caption: New York City Skyline New York City, NY While I have only visited the city once, it was magical. The fast paced, loud lifestyle was something that sweeps you off your feet. Seeing the different people, restaurants, shops and experiences you could have in one place was mesmerizing. I went my junior year of high school for a choir trip. We sang at Carnegie Hall and I still have dreams about that day. It was such an amazing trip and I hope to visit again someday.

Time Strategies

Red alarm clock. Source: Pixabay I often struggle with how to manage my time because I over commit myself. I'm currently the Public Relations Director of the student-run advertising and public relations firm, Lindsey + Asp, which is in Gaylord College. I also intern at the Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust three times a week and I'm the Publicity Chair of the It's On Us task force on campus. I do all of this while also taking 19 hours this semester. People will often ask me to grab lunch or coffee and I immediately have to open my planner before I'm able to respond. The time schedule I worked out for this class still works best for me though it's going to take some catching up to get there. My best days for work are Fridays and Sundays and since assignments are due the middle of the week, I have to catch up a little bit to get on that schedule because I didn't manage my time well on this Sunday to kick that off today. One of the articles I read was  "Inc
