My Favorite Place

Oregon, My Favorite Place.

It doesn't really matter where in Oregon, the state is absolutely breathtaking.

 It doesn't matter if you are looking for the beach and the ocean, rivers and streams, tall trees and seclusion, or mountains and fog, you can find it in Oregon. And more often than not, you can find it all within the same 5 mile radius. I am planning on going to law school in Oregon so I have the fullest intentions to plant roots for myself within the state.

    Oh, I absolutely agree, Taylor! We lived in Eugene when I was little, and we went to so many beautiful places. I would say that is an excellent destination to have in mind for your future. The photos you chose here are lovely!

    Wow, Taylor, what gorgeous pictures! Now I can really see why you told us in capstone that Oregon was 100% going to be your home in the near future. I especially love the last picture, i had no idea how beautiful the Oregon coast was! Best of luck to you as you prepare for law school and what lies ahead.

    Hi Taylor! Wow, the photos you chose to depict Oregon are absolutely gorgeous. The photos have such great quality! I have never been to Oregon; I never knew that it was so pretty. I love the outdoors and hiking so it definitely seems like the place for me. Is Oregon your hometown or do you have family that lives there? I wish you luck on getting into the law school there!

Introduction to a future who-knows-what

My name is Taylor Blackwell, and this is my introduction post. I am a Religious Studies major in my last semester. One of the coolest things about my major is that it is a unique way of learning about people. I am not religious myself, but religion tends to be the thing that determines how people live their lives. It can determine how people act, dress, talk, who they interact with, how they raise their children (how many children they have), how they spend their money, how they vote, the list goes on and on. So, for me, learning about religion is a different way of learning about people and how they operate. The best class I took last semester was my Capstone class. Our project was to write our own gospel and it was a lot of fun. I took a creative approach to my gospel and it was the first time that I have ever had to write creatively; everything before that was just academic writing so it was a great experience. During most school breaks I don’t do anything very exciting, b

Week 7 Story: King Yudhisthira's Horse

Horse O' War: King Yudhisthira's Horse leading Arjuna into Battle The story that I am about to tell you is one that has yet to be told in its original context. By now you are well aware of the story of the moon-white horse with a plate of gold strapped to its head. You know, the one that the army of Arjuna followed for a year, conquering rajah after rajah? Well, there are several very important aspects of that story that all but a very few are unaware of.  For starters, it may seem that the horse had very little to do with the many victories that Arjuna experienced, for I am just a simple horse, wandering around the land. That is where you are wrong.  But, it is not your fault as the reader, it is more my fault for keeping such a low profile in this story for so many centuries. Who am I, you might be asking? Well, let me tell you. I am Skanda, the firstborn son of Shiva, and the god of war, and during these particular events told in The Mahabharata I was stru
