Em's Introduction

Hello! My name is Emily Martinez I am a biology major at OU! The coolest thing about my major is that I've met so many amazing people through it, professors and friends! Also, it has taught me to work really hard for what I want. I also met my boyfriend at OU because we are both biology majors. I don't know if there is a lot that is interesting about me so ill just write some random facts about myself. I am El Salvadoran and originally from California but I don't remember much of California because I moved to pauls valley, Oklahoma when I was 2.  I have four siblings and I am the third out of the four.

Week 2 Story: The Woman in the Sky

Image
There once was a laundress who was growing tired of her labor and complained " This life is too dirty; I want something better. I wish to be an apple tree, where life is easy and the sun shines on me."  A witch heard this plea and said: " You wish to be a tree; then be a tree." The once laundress then became a tree.

Week 7:Tar Baby Wins

  Tar Baby Wins  There once was this Rabbit called Brer Rabbit and a Fox called Brer Fox. They had this ongoing game where they would trick and outsmart each other with schemes they each devised. There was a particular day where Fox was tired of Brer Rabbit outsmarting him and starting scheming up a plan to show Brer-Rabbit who he really is. He gathered material and started working hard to trick Brer Rabbit. His final creation, which he made from tar mixed with turpentine, was called Tar-baby. He put a hat on this doll-like creature and placed her on the side of the road that he knows Brer-Rabbit takes. He hid in the bushes waiting for his plan to come to fruition. It did not take long for Brer Fox to hear the bold confident steps of Brer Rabbit. When Brer Rabbit passed by Tar-baby he looked surprised to see this figure with a hat just sitting on the side of the road. He got on his hind legs and looked at Tar-baby and then said, " Good morning! Pleasant weather we are hav...
