Topic Research: Creek Stories

This is a picture of a terrapin and in the second story I mention it tells the story of how their eyes became red. https://www.clubpets.com.sg/terrapin-things-a-guide-to-terrapin-care/

The Creation of the Earth: I liked this story because it was pretty short, to the point, and easy to understand so I think it would be easy to retell and make it my own. I also just the idea of doing a creation story because Native Americans were some of the first people to roam the Americas so a creation story from their point of view seems like a cool idea.  https://www.sacred-texts.com/nam/se/mtsi/mtsi092.htm

The Fawn, the Wolves, and the Terrapin: This was a fun and short story of how and why a terrapin looks the way it does now. This is also kind of like a creation story.  https://www.sacred-texts.com/nam/se/mtsi/mtsi036.htm

The Hunter and His Dogs: This is a not so romantic fairytale and I am a sucker for a happily ever after. https://www.sacred-texts.com/nam/se/mtsi/mtsi020.htm

Introduction to Me and My Blog

  This photo was taken at our family farm in Arkansas last fall and was uploaded from my computer. Hello my name is Kenzie Golden and welcome to my blog. I am from Cherokee, Oklahoma which is a really small town in northwest Oklahoma. I grew up on a farm and went to a really small high school with only 19 students in my graduating class. I am a junior at The University of Oklahoma. Back home along with my parents I have two younger siblings and a two year old aussiedoodle and a cat. Some of my Hobbes include sports, painting, traveling, and hanging out with friends and family. My favorite foods are Italian food and any kind of breakfast food. I am currently working at a gym and in the middle of getting my personal train certification. I chose to come to OU because being from such a small town I knew that I wanted to get out into the world and experience new things. I knew absolutely no one as an incoming freshman at the university but I joined a sorority and quickly made so many friend

Her name was Penelope and she was so beautiful. Penelope and nothing to her name and scavenged and farmed all that she had. One day, as she was walking through the forest looking for anything to eat she came across a baby deer trapped in a hole. Penelope quickly helped the deer out of the hole and it ran away in fear so she went along picking her berries. The nest day she is outside of her little house tending to her garden she could see the deer standing afar. She tried getting it to come to her but it would not so she left some food out for it and went inside.  The next morning, she found the deer lying next to the front door when she walked outside and the poor deer just laid there. Penelope gave the deer some more food and water because it looked famished and it
