Ravana Statue. Source

I chose Ravana initially because he was the antagonist in the Ramayana and I loved that story. He was a super interesting character with his 10 heads and multiple hands. I also found it interesting how his ancestors were part of the trinity.

Mythology of Different Cultures. Source

I then went to mythology because the other class that Dr. Gibbs teaches is mythology. This is one class that I wish I would have taken. Mythology is so interesting to me.

I then went to Ancient Greek because I think it would be fun to visit Greece. I have heard stories that the people are very friendly and the culture is so interesting. Also Greek mythology is great to read and learn about.

Homer. Source

I then went to Homer because he is one of the people that are well known in the western societies in terms of epics. He wrote the Iliad and The Odyssey, which two of my favorite epics of all time.

Rama. Source

I originally did Rama because the Ramayana was my favorite epic from the class. Rama was such a dynamic character. I love how he was Vishnu in human form.

Cosmology. Source

I went to cosmology next because I am an aerospace engineer. I love cosmology and anything related to space. The study of the subject itself is awesome.

Dark Energy Expansion. Source

I next went to dark energy because I learned a little bit about it in my astrodyamics class last semester. I still do not completely understand the concepts but it is an interesting aspect in the expansion of the universe. 

General Relativity. Source

I ended with general relativity because this was also an interesting topic in my astroynamics class. The theory itself is interesting and very dense. If interested, there are great YouTube videos to explain the theory.
