TED TALK

The video was very difficult to understand. It was helpful to go over it after. The speaker actually made some interesting points about culture and how the stories that are passed down help maintain a cultural identity. I enjoyed our discussion after about different customs and how something that can be normal in one culture can be rude in another.

Comments on "Sandman" by Neil Gaiman

I found this excerpt difficult to read and understand even with there being pictures. I had no interest in it at all. I guess all the hidden satanic symbols within the illustrations made me not want to read what was on the page. I wasn't too comfortable with it. It's not what I expect to read in an english class.
