2. Storing Session_Attributes 

I soon realized that to have a productive and natural conversation it is important to remember what the user might have said in previous responses and to have followup questions if needed. Since I did not store the user's information in a database, I chose to store the session using the special Alexa session_attributes to store the specific information in the slots. Slots are variables in a general utterance that can change. For example, the [Mood] slot might contain a variety of different emotions such as [happy, sad, mellow, chill, angry]. The information in the slots can then be stored to invoke some sort of action or be used in future conversations.
