Week 10 Review

I am currently in Denver for a business trip for two weeks, so I have not been able to keep up with my assignments. I have worked 55 hours in the last 4 days. I am going to try my absolute best to get back on track, but I am very worried that I have fallen too far behind schedule.

Here is the link to this story on my portfolio!  Once upon a time, deep in the Jungle of Asia there was a snake who ruled the jungle. He was big and strong, and could eat anything he wanted. One day the snake was slithering along the jungle floor to the river to find something to eat. A mouse was bathing near the river and saw the snake come slithering his direction. The mouse was frightened and thought to himself "what can I do to defend myself against the snake? I am very small and not strong."  The mouse decided to approach the snake instead of letting the snake come to him.  "Hello" said the mouse.  "Why hello there you delicious looking mouse" smirked the snake. "Is there anything you wish to say before I swallow you up?" "Why yes there is. Little do you know that I am in fact the most powerful mouse in the jungle." said the mouse as he fluffed out his fur and made himself as big as he could. "I can jump from tree to tree and
