CHRISTMAS BREAK!!!

Good luck everyone on reading all the way to chapter 18 during break. It'll be tough because I am busy much of the time as are many of you probably. It'll be nice to have a longer break off of school, though. Merry Christmas!!!

Frankenstein

Who is William? It makes it a little confusing because Elizabeth was adopted but calls her parents aunt and uncle and the others her cousin. I know that Victor had another brother but isn't his brother Ernest? I have only so far read through chapter 7 but I find it odd that the monster that Victor made would go and murder William.

promitheous

The picture of promitheous makes me feel tourmented and sad because of the pain and suffering the man is in which relfects how mean and cruel the human society can be to each other. By the focus of the painting being on him it conveys a feeling of unnecessary punishment that he was actually not that bad of a guy. Also by stripping him down to nothing but nakedness it is taking away all his humility and making him feel ashamed as the dark background behind him provides a bird that is about to eat him alive, he looks like he is consented to being tourtured like this so its like the weak being preyed on by the strong. sadd commentary on society even if it came from a myth

12/14

The romantic era has influenced modern day society because we have higher "idealistic" expectations for things like life, love, money, and that we should always be happy. People dream about having it all and being super rich and perfect family, romance, and kids, when in reality, none of that ever really comes true. Everyone has hardships in there life that we must overcome, its not all fantasy. we also have unrealistic expectations that you must fufill or your not beautiful like having a perfect body, personaity, and all together flawless which has lead to anoriexia and many other psychological issues that people have formed because of their lack of "perfection" which is unrealistic.

Snowflake

A snowflake teaches us how everyone is different because there are no two snowflakes alike and how everyone in their differences us unique and beautiful and that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Snow is also related with happy times like chirstmas and other holidays and winter activties like snow men (: It sets a mood of cold harsh times but being comfortable in your house with a warm fire .. also snow is white which signifies purity of somesort and innocence which is ironic because of all the problems it causes like car crash and snow in, and snow days, but everyone loves snowdays so thats finding the good in the maybe not so great because snow can be a pain in the neck!... but i like it (:
