Topic Brainstorm

OU GHOST STORIES:
I actually had no idea OU was even haunted until I saw this! Now it makes sense because I could of sworn the house I lived in last year on campus was haunted. It is so interesting but a bit spooky. The most well known story is the story of Ellison Hall and I was just in there today! I'm a sucker for scary movies so I feel that I could easily use my imagination of a haunting at the university. I hope I never run into any ghosts on campus!

MILO OF CROTON:
Milo of Croton was one of the greatest greek athletes of all time! He was a six time olympic victor in wrestling. I feel that it would be a great story to re tell his story through an OU football stand point. Especially after our big win against Ohio State this week. There is obviously the Baker route I could go with the story telling. BOOMER!

PIRATES:
I really think that this would be a fun story to retell. From the stealing and looting, to drinking and capturing ships, I believe I could get quite creative with this subject. I am going to pick one famous pirate from the past and hopefully I can find the craziest one of all. Id love to read that story and figure out all the things he did.

NURSERY RHYMES:
I feel like there is so much room for creativity with all the nursery rhymes we have all heard growing up as kids. From jack and jill, to three blind mice, to little bo peep. I think that putting a modern twist on these old nursery rhymes could be a fun and interesting thing to do! Who wouldn't want to change up the stories of their childhood a bit.

    Hi Zack!
    All of your topics sound extremely interesting. Whichever way you decide to go, it looks like you'll have a great topic. Ghost stories would capture anyone's attention, and if you decided to write about OU being haunted I would for sure check back on your blog to see that. Milo of Croton as Baker Mayfield? That is such a smart, interesting twist on the story!

    Hey there Zack! I am really glad you decided to go with the OU Ghost stories! While I think your other ideas were also good, the ghost stories would be the most fun to write and also the most relatable for the average person reading your stories in my opinion! And I also love what you have done with your stories too it has turned out really well and has been incredibly entertaining!

Growth Mindset: My job as a growth mindset place

I have a part time job at a store in Del City called Gregorys sporting goods. I sell team uniforms and various things to customers and have been doing so for about two and half years while I have been in college. I work part time along with school. There is a lot of talking to do and selling and I have used those skills to be successful at what I do. I have been searching for a career and finally found one upon graduation and going through interviews you have to sell yourself. I believe my job at gregorys has provided with mindset that I will succeed in my career. I loved to learn and grow and this part time job has lead me to learn patience and organization. I am going to be sad leaving but I am so excited to start my new career. Gregorys Logo

Wikipedia trail: From Three Little Pigs To LSD

Three Little Pigs; Link I had just written a blog post about the story of the Three Little Pigs. I read through the article and started to read about the different modern versions of this famous fairy tail and that is when I came across a character who was a "Cannabis Smoker". Cannabis Smoking; Link I chose the cannabis smoking link because I figured it would lead me down a complete different road from where I began. The cannabis smoking article got to the different ways to ingest cannabis and that is when I came across "Place under the tongue". Sublingual Administration; Link I chose this subject because I wanted to get even deeper into how strange I could end up from the original search. Reading through this article obviously lead me to the different drugs that are taken by placing them underneath the tongue. That is when I came across "LSD". Lysergic Acid Diethylamide; Link I chose LSD because I knew that this is where I would of ended and to...

Wikipedia Trail; From Vishnu to Slang

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vishnu I got to vishnu through the class twitter page. I have always wondered about vishnu and for some reason this weekend it got brought up. So when I saw it, it caught my eye.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoga When I was reading through Vishnu on wikipedia it began to talk about the different positions the statues of Vishnu come in. One of them was a yoga sitting pose. Hinduism and these gods have a lot to do with yoga and yoga is important in many religions in the middle east and asia.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatwa As I was reading about Yoga and religions I came across the muslim religion where they issued a Fatwa for any muslims trying to practice yoga. I had never heard of a fatwa before I started watching "Curb your Enthusiam" where this season there was a Fatwa against Larry David.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slang Fatwa can be used as slang and that is how Curb your Enthusiasm used it in there se...
