Introduction to a Computer Engineering Student
Hello, my name is Nathaniel Vo. I am a sophomore Computer Engineering student here at the University of Oklahoma. One of my favorite things about Computer Engineering is that it is basically 50% Computer Science and 50% Electrical Engineering, so the courses never get too stale. One of my favorite things to do is to cook food. I pride myself on cooking low-cost good food. I am by no means a good cook, I just enjoy doing it in my spare time because I think it's really fun to do, it's a good skill to have, and it lets me express myself to other people. I love to cook for my peers and loved ones because it displays my love for them. I really enjoy listening to music in my free time. I find myself usually mainly listening to Christian music, but whenever I listen to secular music, I listen to indie rock and alternative rock. I like to play the bass guitar; back in my hometown of Broken Arrow, I played in the worship band for my church. I really enjoy watching television s
Week 2 Story: Squidward Tennisballs
https://sites.google.com/view/nathanielvoportfolio/squidwards-art Squidward Tentacles works unending hours at the Krusty Krab restaurant as a lowly cashier. He labors day after day to make enough to achieve his dreams: winning a dance competition, playing music at the Bubble Bowl, and being a movie star. However, his dreams are shattered each and every day as he only makes a nickel for every day he works. Squidward spends his free time as an artist, dancer, and musician. He enjoys dancing painting and building sculptures of himself, as well as playing his clarinet. Despite all of his hobbies, Squidward has no friends. He does not want to associate with his neighbors, SpongeBob and Patrick, as they spend their days blowing bubbles and fishing for jellyfish. He once had a friend named Howard. Howard shared many interests with Squidward, such as playing the bassoon, enjoys fine art, and especially dislikes blowing bubbles. However, SpongeBob and Patrick later convince Howard to
Hi Nathaniel!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, when I saw that you used Harry Potter as inspiration I thought "Thank god" because I always love a good Potter reference. Secondly, LOVE how you kept Harry's parents alive all thanks for Snape, that is surely an unusual twist for this story to follow. Using the Three Wise Men as inspiration for this story is something I would not have thought of, however I think it would have made for a great story if there were two others offering gifts with Snape like Lupin and Serious too. Regardless, I really enjoyed your use of Snape because a ton of people do not know that he is one of the best underrated character (they all assume he really is bad). Nice job!
Hi Nathaniel!
ReplyDeleteI think it’s very clever that you paralleled Harry Potter’s story with the birth of Jesus! The stories are definitely very similar, and I like that you told it in a style of writing similar to what we would see in the Bible.
I wonder what would have happened to Snape in this version of the story. Would Lord Voldemort kill him for failing to betray the Potters, or would he manage to escape from the Death Eaters?
I was confused about what this story was about until I got to the Author’s Note and then reread the whole thing. What if you included a title of some kind that would let readers know this was a parody of the Bible? Also, I think it would a bit easier to read and flow if you split the test into two or three paragraphs.
Thank you for this entertaining story! Good work!
