Week 14 Lab: One of the Hardest Things is to Start


The story lab I am completing is from the advice to writer’s story lab. The specific advice I took from this story lab was "One of the Hardest Things is to start.”  This was an interesting advice that had some really good key points. On of the very interesting advice strings was everyone is always convinced that their next will be your worst, or you will never be able to write as good as your biggest hit again. All writers live in constant terror, but one of a writer’s biggest jobs is making sense of the chaos and making something from it when you can. The only way to do this is sitting down and just start writing.

    Hey Drew,

    I think the advice you gathered from the story lab is very handy. Often I struggle with the same thing of "just starting", even outside of writing. I think that advice applies to so many things in life, whether it be homework, a job application, that chore that you don't want to do, or so many other things. I have always heard that the biggest step is the first one.

    Good luck,
    Brady

Drew Fazzino Introduction

Hi all,           My name is Drew Fazzino, I am a Senior at the University of Oklahoma. My major is Mechanical Engineering. The coolest thing about my major is seeing how different systems work together and operate. Another cool thing about my major is making parts in CAD and generating tool paths to machine your own parts in a CNC. The best class I took last semester was Computer Integrated Manufacture because I learned different CAM platforms and how to generate your own tool paths to the parts you make in platforms such as solidworks. My biggest accomplishment last semester was boosting my gpa some and just having a good semester in general. Over the summer break, I went to Colorado for a couple of weeks and relaxed a little before and after my internship at innovex downhole solutions. It was a blessing to receive the internship this summer because it gave me some great relative infield experience working with lead mechanical engineers all summer long. Although I said Colorado w

Week 2 Story: Man Learns about Humility

Image
Eric was up admiring the great statue of an Indian killing a bear up in the beautiful mountains of British Columbia. Suddenly from behind the statue a great grizzly bear appeared from the woods. Walking calmly towards eric the bear asks, “What are your thoughts of this statue?” Eric replied in shock to the bear “I believe it shows how man has become more powerful than nature, and this is still true to this day.” The bear laughs as he walks around eric, saying if man is so powerful then you will be able to prove it right now in a fight against me. Eric taken back nervously, but kind of with a chip on his shoulder responds of course I could beat you in a fight right now. The two look at each other calmly and nod their heads, and the fight begins. The bear charges towards eric and ferociously taking a swipe towards his face, barely nicking his cheek. Eric jolts back in shock and then runs full speed towards the bear who knocks eric to the ground once again. Eric realizing there
