Review, Week 4

The video I watched was Gurdeep  Pandher of Yukon's dance video. I had never heard of this Punjabi song before. I love the cross-cultural dance. I love to teach my non-Pakistani friends how to do different Bollywood dances. In fact, at my brother's wedding, all of my friends did a Bollywood choreographed dance, and they all know that there will be a part 2 at my own wedding.   One of the best graphics would be the punctuation one depicted below because it depicts how crucial punctuation can be. The meaning drastically changes with it.  (Punctuation Effect; Web Source:  Blogspot ) 

Week 4 Lab

 (Story; Web Source:  Pixabay )  As a child, I thought stories had to be unfamiliar as well to be interesting. My favorite stories were ones that I could not relate to, and I think that a big part of that was out of curiosity of something different. I remember seeing a book about a hijabi girl, and I remember picking up the book when I was young. However, I remember it bored me to hear my story, but I understand the significance of showing that story. If not, then there is many depictions of Muslim people in the news who show Muslims as dangerous people. Unfortunately, there are not enough Muslim stories. I never really identified with being a Muslim or Pakistani when I was younger. I did not even realize that was a part of my identity. The first time I realized was when some kids were making fun of me for not knowing what a baptism was. As an adult and understanding the negative portrayal and harsh depiction of Muslims in the media, I consciously tell people that I am Mu...

Reading Notes: Adam and Eve, Part B

Image
 (Adam and Eve; Web Source :  Wikimedia )  Adam and Eve were in the cave and prayed together. Adam died, and Eve was very upset and prayed for him to be brought back to life. She prayed that if God did not bring him back to life, then to make her die too. She said she could only be alive because of him. Adam was put to sleep, and she was made from him. God gave them comfort because he saw they were really sad. God was like if only you two did not eat that apple, but I guess the devil made you do it because he made it seem pleasant. God was like I made you, so I never wanted to destroy you.  They both lived, but now needed water. God made a deal with Adam that he could come back to the garden. Adam did not want to drink the water. They were sad because it was not dark, and before there was no night or day in heaven. Adam beat himself up; he was upset. He looked like a corpse. Eve was silent, so God made her speak.  God was like yo, I made it bright when you were ...

Reading Notes: Adam and Eve, Part A

(Adam; Web Source:  Wikimedia ) The Ideal Man was my favorite story. It is one that I am less familiar with. Adam was like twenty years old when God made him, not a baby. He was ginormous. He was perfect in dimensions too. Many other men had traits like him, but those caused them harm. For instance, Samson was so strong, and that killed him. Eve looked like an ape compared to Adam? That is kind of rude. God revealed to him the whole history of mankind while he wasn't even born. He chose to live less than a thousand years. His life was 930, and he gave only 70 to David because he only had a minute to live. God created all the animals and angels when Adam was 1 hour old. Adam because he was made of Adamah, dust. He handed down languages. Adam said which places would be settled by man and which would be waste.  The Ideal Man by Laura Gibbs God made Adam and Eve and said that they will rule over everything. He said that there would be multiple people. God rested on the 7th day. He...
