Reading Notes: Week 2 Anthology

 Bibliography: 

- Romance of Old Japan, Part I: Mythology and Legend by E. W. Champney and F. Champney (1917). http://mythfolklore.blogspot.com/2014/06/japan-eight-forked-serpent-of-koshi.html

- Laos Folk-Lore by Katherine Neville Fleeson (1899).http://mythfolklore.blogspot.com/2014/06/laos-man-in-moon.html

-Upon reading the stories; The Man in the Moon and The Hare that was not Afraid to Die, I am beginning to be encouraged to write a more dialogue based story for this week as it really brings a picture of the characters together. 

-Each actions committed between dialogues are so well described with kind adjectives and clear visualizations. 

-These stories include older texts such as 'thou' and older way of communicating with others. 

-Maybe I won't write the stories as if I am a 7 year old child explaining to their parents what happened at school that day. 

-The Divine, Heavenly Beings: Susanoo and Orochi already had my undivided attention with just the name of the title.

-Susanoo and Orochi are ancient Japanese characters who can be found in modern anime shows. 

-I want to be able to tell my stories in more detailed and twisted way than the past semester.

  Hello and welcome to my first blog! My name is Taeam Kang and I will be taking you all on a trip down my life. I first came to the University of Oklahoma to major in Microbiology, Pre-Dental. I enjoyed the field of dentistry and made the effort the past three years to work and get as many shadowing hours and experience as possible. However, this past summer I had a change of heart and changed my major to Pre-Pharmacy in hopes to further my education in pharmacy school. My career goal is to become a head pharmacist for Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals. The reason I decided on Pre-Pharmacy rather than Pre-Dental is my hands strangely shake constantly and I decided it’d be best if I did not choose the hand-on surgery route. It is not a serious condition as one can barely even noticed without staring hard at my hands, but I will entrust the field of dentistry to those more qualified. I currently live with six of my friends in a house near campus. My family consists of my mother, step-father, an

(Image Information: Ultimate Vessel for Supreme Diety  https://www.reddit.com/r/NanatsunoTaizai/comments/7ir36v/ultimate_vessel_for_supreme_deity/) In the beginning of time, a big bang created a world split between heaven and hell. Each world was ruled by all-mighty entities; Aura, the goddess angel of heaven, and Amadan, the demon king of hell. For years, the two rulers raged war upon each other, creating chaos for centuries to come. Between the two opposite worlds existed a world of man, who found themselves constantly in the crossfire in the war between heaven and hell.  The two rulers also had children of their own. First born son of Amadan was named, Zaratras, who became the most notorious and feared soldier in the demon king’s army. First born daughter of Aura was named, Yama, who also became the strongest soldier in the army of heavens. Both fought countless days and nights, fighting for a cause created by their parents. However, when they met on the battlefield, it deemed too d
