I am quite happy with my progress in the class so far. I have kept up with all of the assignments, I only missed one but made up the points with some extra credit. Overall, I am really enjoying this class, I enjoy the reading and the storytelling posts, but most of all I love working on my project. Every time I have to work on my project I get super excited, I love doing research for it and writing the introduction and stories, so I really hope people actually enjoy reading it. I do think I should take more advantage of the extra credit opportunities, so that is something I would like to incorporate more during the second half of the semester. 

I am lucky enough that I have a pretty light semester credit-wise, so I am not as burned out as other people, but I am still quite tired and looking forward to the spring break, which is my biggest motivator at the moment (hence the picture!). I hope I will continue to enjoy this class and that I will keep up with the assignments, I am excited to continue to work on my project!

Personal picture of me before cutting my hair Hola! Hello! That's me on the left, Antonieta Hernández, but everyone calls me Anto.

I was fortunate enough to be selected by the Venezuelan national committee, and I spent two amazing years studying in Italy. After that when it was time to apply to college I went looking for schools that support international students, and OU happened to have a great scholarship program for UWC alumni, so I applied and here I am! As I mentioned, I am studying psychology and sociology. I love my major and I am incredibly passionate about

There once was a beautiful woman name Afiong. All of the men of the land and lands far beyond were interested in her; they all tried to woo her, but one by one they were shut down. Afiong's parents tried relentlessly to convince her to take a man, they even arranged several marriages for her, but it was useless. Afiong refused each and every proposal, for she thought herself far too beautiful for any of them, and worthy only of the finest specimen of manhood.  Rumors of the woman's beauty spread all over the world, even reaching the far corners of the spirit land. The Skull, a spirit known for his ugliness, heard of Afiong and deeply longed and to meet her. He was ashamed of his looks, so he traveled all throughout the spirit land asking for body parts. One friend offered him his legs, another his face, then eyes, torso, arms, until his body was complete and he looked like the most handsome young man. The Skull then traveled to Afiong's country, and for days he watched
