Looking through these stories started to get me excited about this upcoming semester in this class, I know I am going to learn a lot and am eager to do so. There were many stories that caught my eye but here are three that I particularly liked.
The Karma Diaries was one that I specifically liked because I like to think that karma is something that serves its way through life. I am familiar with what karma is but not so much where it is from or what the history is behind it and I want to learn more about that. The introduction made me want to read the further stories about how "Judge Karma" punished or rewarded her people by the actions they had done. The introduction described the premise well and the layout of the page gave an ominous feeling, almost like a mystery to read more and find out what had happened. Overall, the page was well designed and set up so that it was easy for me to navigate. The images within the story helped me to make a mental picture of what the story was describing.

In the story Go Greece or Go Home I was initially drawn to the title because I am a part of a sorority and the title talked about going Greece, or as some say going greek. The introduction had me hooked as soon as I began to read it. I am familiar with Athena and Poseidon but I am not familiar with their powers and what they are known for, so this story introduced me to new information. The way the page is set up made it easy for me to navigate and it also had a simple but good looking design. The images within the story helped me relate the story to pictures and see what the author was referring to. This story gave me some ideas of what I might want to write about for my project.

The third story I chose that was one of my favorites was Real Housewives of Greek Mythology. I was initially intrigued by this title because I personally love to watch the housewives shows on television and thought this story would be comedic. To my pleasure this story was all about the drama and I loved it. The way the author had the dialogue like a script was creative and fun and the page was set up for me to work easily. I enjoyed reading these stories because they were making fun of the housewives in real life and the absurd things they fight about. The pictures were fun and related to the stories being told. This was definitely my favorite and helped me come up with some new ideas for my future project.
