Hello everyone! I feel like I have been doing Learning Challenges for the past couple of weeks. This is my last learning challenge. I feel like they flew by quickly. Anyways, here is my update on the Pomodoro Technique!

It was hard tracking my time. I have made many timers as this experiment has gone by. I will say that this technique is helpful. When I start my homework, I usually begin with the easier material. This way, I slowly become motivated to do my harder work, and I will take my time doing it. The timers were helpful, but most of the time, I needed more time. I felt like I was rushing to get the most work done in that said time interval. For that reason, I extended the "study time" depending upon the difficulty of my work. This technique definitely helped in my time management skills. So, this experiment was successful!

In my free time, I love watching movies and sleeping! Netflix is something I am always on. My favorite shows right now are Grey's Anatomy, How to Get Away with Murder, and Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj. This summer, I was able to do both - watch movies and sleep! My family and I also went to Texas, Arkansas, a

Week 7 Story: The Rice and The Man

Image
( The Broken Pot by John D. Batten) The updated version of the story is here on my Portfolio! In a small village in Gujarat, India, there lived a man named Vittap. His name evidently signified his behavior; he guarded his wealth closely.  One day, Vittap had gathered a surplus amount of rice grains from working in his neighbor's fields and begging in the village. Growing rice was no easy task. After eating the rice that same evening, Vittap put the remaining rice in a pot. The pot was hung over his couch so that he could bathe in its glory.  As Vittap became drowsy, he dreamed about his future with the rice. He thought, "My beautiful rice. Oh, how beautiful! If there is a famine, I will always have my rice. Wait, can the rice not make me some profit?" "I can buy a few goats with the rice and eventually have a family of goats!" "I can then sell the goats, and get a couple of cows!" "I can then sell cow milk and purc
