As I was studying over my notes and looking back on the things I had done for this class. I can say that I’m semi proud of my self pass or fail because of the two papers I did turn in on time I actually worked hard and put alot of thought into them. Normally if I was struggling in a class I would have dropped it at the first sign of trouble. But Mrs. Wood you are a great teacher and a good motivator. You made it easy to talk to you and help me with my first paper which was a huge challenge for me. Now the second paper was just flat out hard I didn’t understand where to being and I didn’t like the choices of stories but that life right. Well I just want to thank you for the help and encouragement to work harder and strive to be a better write even if that never happens.

Where are you going

In this story Connie is a young girl that is carefree and out going. She is very pretty and she knows it and is in the mirror every chance she gets. She hates her plain older sister because everyone tells her that she should be more like June. Connie’s mom is always on her case about chasing boys and walking around like an airhead. Well one day she was out this a friend and saw this cute guy looking at her. Well the next day Connie’s parents went to a Bar B-que and the cute shows up in her driveway. But the weird thing is that the guy know every thing about her and her family and want her to come outside. Now if she would have not been a brat she could have been at the BB que and this whole thing would not have happen. I thing Connie semi got what she deserved cause she could have handle things a lot different.

The Lottery

Now this is a story that I didn’t quite understand. It reminded me of the Puratins and the Salem witch trail. This small communtiny of what I would call backwater people would gather in town square and have fun. There would be games played with the children running around people were dancing. Just having a good ole time but there was a big issue at hand to come later. The local harvest was fast approaching and in this town they have a lottery were they draw tabs to see who has a black dot. But the twist is who ever has the black dot will be stoned to death by the town in sake of the harvest. This is a very twisted community.

The Old Man

I read the story about the old man with wings and how at first thought he was an angel. But then saw that he did not act like an angel or smell, talk, or do anything angel like. So they threw him in a old chicken coop why ypu because he had wings plus he was really stinky. Well new got a round and people travel near and far to see this stinky old man with wings. They paid money to the people who found him thus making them filthy rich. But a traveling circus came to town with a half woman half spider and stole the attention from the old man. Eventually the circus moved on but, the people were still stuck with this old man so they opened the chicken coop one night and he flew away the next morning.

A&P

When I read the story A&P I didn’t understand the point of the story at first. But then I actually paid attention and it came to me. The story was bout some girl walking into a country store with bathing suits on. Now to must people now days that would not seem like much of a surprise. But I guess in this period in time things like that were frowned upon. Well the kid in the story is happy to see some type of action because on a daily bases he helps old blue haired ladies. But the manager comes in from the back and notices the girl he tells them a thing or two and kicks them out of the store. The boy wants to stand up for the girls so he quits his job and the girls leave him in the dust. Moral of story don’t quit your day job.

Art Day

One day we skipped the normal class day and went to the auditorium to listen to a real life Artist. At first it was hard for me to focus before I was up all that night reading a story for class the next morning. But just my luck we were not even staying in class we walked to the building and sat down. A lady talked about some things I didn’t understand I think she was give the bio for the Artist who’s nmae slips my mind right now. But any way he went on stage and intro his self to our class plus atleast five other classes. They had his art work on a slide show on the big screen behind it was a cool thing to see. I was glad I wasn’t late to class on this day.

I viewed my grades and I can’t believe that I didn’t turn in a drama paper so you could only guess what my grade was. Yup you guessed it a big fat zero now tell me why this happened to way it did. Well one reason is that I’m a big procastrnator and as you can see not a very good speller. But the stories were very boring to me and hard to grasp for that assignment. Looks like I learned something in this class that will last a life time always stay on top of you work cause once you fall behind it’s hard to get back.

Rescearch Paper

spooby — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 15:21:47 +0000

Wow now where do I being with this writing assignment this had to be the hardest thing to do since riding a bike. Yes you guess I put this assignment of for more than the allowed time and found my self cramming just to get the info in my brain down on paper. It wasn’t that the reading was a hard assignment I just didn’t know the correct angle to take. So I did what I do for most writing assignment put them off for the last minute. But this time I was cutting it really really close so I know my grade will have to suffer. My brain is still twisting and turning over the way I put all the time in there place. Now I must just sit back and wait for my grade ugh…

Drama essay

spooby — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 16:20:23 +0000

In class we have to write an essay about the drama play’s we have read or watched. But I think to assignment is hard because the plays we read are boring . They don’t have much information for me to pull from and I have to actually use my mind to create this story. Well it’s turning out to be loads of fun I don’t even know where to begin. It’s taking my back to when I was in high school and I would wait till the day before it was due then start on it. Well I guess this is college now and I have other classes that give me a ton of work. So I guess when I finish this post I’ll start on my drama essay there goes my weekend.

Othello Post

Today in class we watched “O” the Shakepearean play but in modern times. But the crazy thing about it is I hate that movie. When I saw the opening credits I screamed in my head like bleep bleep but I had to grit and bear it. What I disliked about the movie was how could people let one person control there every move. Like why would you not check with the other person to see if it was true. They were so wrapped up in the gossip that they forgot the number one gossip rule confontation. So when O heard that Micheal was messing with his girl he should have asked him and beat him up if it was true. And it also shows that not everybody wants to see you do better. And it show me how stupid high school love is and how easy it is to get lost in the system.
