Portfolio Introduction


Woman Overlooking Her City

The stories in my portfolio are recreations based off of the epics tales that I have came across during this semester. The past lives and internal thoughts of many characters is left unknown to the readers.  I want to bring the characters to life and give them more than what previous authors have offered.

Sita's Secret

For twenty plus years, Sita has kept a secret to herself wondering how people would react if they knew the truth. She often contemplated about whether or not there was something internally wrong with her.  The decision that she made in her past has affected her negatively to the point that she believes no one will ever believe the words that fall from her tongue.

Lakshmana

Dependable and loving brother he is indeed.  Lakshmana lives within the shadow of his eldest brother Rama.  He soon becomes fed up with Rama’s entitled behavior and begins questioning his motives.   When Rama commits an act of ultimate betrayal, Lakshmana then questions his respect for Rama.

Being the eldest is not always easy, and being stubborn does not help. Yudhistira acts on impulse and this action leads him facing harsh consequences.  Maybe this time Yudhistira should have consulted his brothers before he decided to sneak out of exile.

A Father with Unknown Intentions

Bajra portrays himself as a  loving husband and father, however he secretly envies his wife's devotion to the Goddess Chandi.  He wants to prove to his wife Hema that Chandi does not exist.  He will do anything to prove that he is right even if it means hurting those who are close to him.

  1. Hi Dijoun!

    I really like the way your portfolio it set up as well as your blog! Everything looks fantastic! Even the pictures go with your background which is impressive. I can really tell throughout your stories and blog that you wanted to keep a consistent theme throughout and it is well done.

    One suggestion I might have is to add a little paragraph about your goals for your portfolio or for the class in your introduction post. I think it would add to your blog and give the viewer a better insight to your thought process.

    I was drawn to your Sita’s Secret story because it sounded very interesting. It turned out to be a great story. I think you did a great job at keeping it exciting.

    I hope you had a good Spring Break.
    I look forward to reading more from your blog and seeing your portfolio grow!
