Reading Notes A; Rumpelstiltskin

The Grimm Brothers' Children's and Household Tales translated by D. L. Ashliman; Rumpelstiltskin; Link

  • The main characters of the story are the millers daughter, the king, and rumpelstiltskin 
  • The millers father tells the king his daughter can weave straw into gold
  • The king takes the daughter and asks her to fill a room with gold or else he will kill her
  • She cannot do so, but a little man named rumpelstiltskin comes in
  • He weaves the straw into gold three times for the millers daughter in exchange for her necklace, ring, and first born son of her and the king
  • Rumpelstiltskin says he will not take her first born child if she can figure out his name
  • She sends off a servant to find out all odd names he could find
  • On the third day he came across a little man dancing and saying his name
  • the queen (millers daughter) bested rumpelstiltkin and angered him so much he split himself in two
  • I could change the story by changing what the millers daughter can do. Maybe she can turn water into wine
  • The little man can come and help her but he takes different things from her, like her home, or her father to work
  • I could change the ending where rumpelstiltskin comes out on top and becomes king of land.

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

An introduction to me... Zack Ziegenhorn

Hello Everybody! My name is Zack Ziegenhorn, but most everyone I know calls me Zig for short. Its much easier to remember than Zack and MUCH easier to spell than Ziegenhorn. (lol) I am from Tulsa, OK and I am a senior Communication major. I went to Tulsa Union High School where I played baseball. I continued my baseball career for one year in college at Seminole State College but had to cut my baseball career short due to nagging injuries 😡. I came to OU in 2013 because I have been Sooner born and Sooner bred. I have been a huge OU fan my entire life and was so excited to get the opportunity to attend this University.                      Obviously I am a huge sports fan and love football, baseball, basketball, and golf. My favorite teams are OU, the St. Louis Cardinals, and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Thunder up!! I enjoy going to the lake over the summer and getting on the boat and just having a great time with friends and ...
