Reading...

Today I started off reading some of the reading texts that i was assigned to do. I started off by reading " The Mahabharata".It was quite a simple story with not too many difficult words. Because it was a religious text I was able to make connections of the cultural references. The names, the strong desire to uphold promises, the "mystery" was similar to other stories that i have read. I then went on to read "The Son of the Turtle Spirit" It was simple with of a lot of super natural elements.Because the were quite a number of pre-reading questions to answer so it was not just about reading but understanding and making a lot of connection.
