My Favorite Place: NYC

My favorite place probably for my whole life has been New York City. I grew up around the northeast and have relatives in the area which allowed for New York to be a fun day trip! I've gone quite a few times and was lucky enough to watch Wicked, Mary Poppins, and Book of Mormon on Broadway as well. Over Christmas break, while visiting my boyfriend's family (they live an hour away from the city), we decided to drive up and see what it looked like during the pandemic. We were actually able to drive directly through the city which I never thought possible. The streets were so uncharacteristically empty, but it was so cool to see! However, the hustle and bustle is part of the charm so it didn't seem as eclectic as usual.

Introduction to All Things Sav

This photo was taken pre-COVID by my sister Hey guys! My name is Savannah, I am a Senior PR major at the University of Oklahoma with a concentration in pre-law and a minor in History! I am taking a gap year in order to prepare for law school and hopefully enroll in the fall of 2022. I don't necessarily have a dream job, but I've wanted to go into law since I was 5 years old and I saw a lawyer on a TV show, and for some reason that called me to the profession. A weird fact about me is I've moved around a lot, I was born in Delaware, then moved to Georgia in Elementary school. In Middle School, I moved to Shanghai China and believe me growing up in a country where no one understands you is a bit frustrating, especially when middle school is already as difficult as it is. Then in High School, I moved to Kansas, and that is why I am currently at the University of Oklahoma today! I will say I absolutely hate sad movies or dramatic movies, but for some reason, I watch...

Week 13 Reading Notes B: King Arthur

Photo by Omar Prestwich on Unsplash This story is part of the King Arthur unit . Story source: King Arthur: Tales of the Round Table by Andrew Lang and illustrated by H. J. Ford (1902). Sir Lancelot tied his horse to a tree and stopped for a bit. He dreamed of knights and woke up and his horse was gone so he left by foot. Sir Bors was told by the hermit that he must wear this garment instead of a shirt on his quest for the grail. He took off his clothes and put on a scarlet coat. On shore he found a vessel and as soon he stepped foot onto the boat it took off as if he had been flying. The king fell ill, and soon he may die. The three knights gave their forgiveness while he was on his death bed. Galahad was proclaimed king, Galahad's soul left his body and was carried by angels up to heaven. Since then no man dared to say they had seen the holy grail. When a year and two months passed Sir Percivale died as well and was buried by his side.
