I love how my blogs, websites, and stories turned out. I wouldn't consider any one of them to be my single biggest accomplishment. They all showcase different types of creative achievements.       My favorite in-class reading so far has been the Mahabharata. It truly is an Epic. There are so many awesome characters and the story plays out very well.
