A story can be defined as a canny depiction of either existing or fictitious persons or things to amuse, enlighten, or criticize an audience. It can also be defined as a narrative, real or fabricated, intended to fascinate, entertain, or educate the listener or bibliophile. It is an invented tale, briefer, and less complex than a narrative. A story can be defined as a recitation of an event or a chain of incidents that can be told, as a story or joke. It can also be a narration of a life event or the life of an individual or a thing. The first most crucial element in a thrilling story is disagreement and conflict. For example, conflict is a dominant theme in Sula. The story features a conflict between two childhood friends, Nel and Sula, who are separated by demise, lust, disloyalty, and disagreement. The other element is strange characters. In the Metamorphosis, Gregor transforms into a huge burg. Other elements of a good story include suspense, tension, mystery, and surprise.

This week was a journey, just because all my professors started assigning homework and PowerPoints.  However, I was able to grasp how the website is laid out. I am getting the hang of all the assignments; however, I do feel like I am jammed with a bunch. My goal for next week is to not procrastinate until the last minute, I have a habit of leaving off assignments till the last minute and then stress about it. However, I did finish my essay and go over it a few times. This week was certainly a punch of reality/wake-up call to start managing my time properly.
