the research paper thingg.
wellllll.. i think that is much better that this is going to be our exam! that excites me and makes me more willing to do it.. and a good job because its the final:) yaaay for us.
The Lady in the Looking Glass
This short story was kind of interesting. It was hard to get at first but then when we talked about it more in class it was a lot better. I found the story kind of funny. Cause this woman holds this other chick with high standard only to find out that she's just like a regular person. Letters and bills, all that stuff was confusing me but its better now.

the lady in the looking glass
While reading the story it seemed as if we were more able to find out about the materialistic aspects of the room rather that who she was. we don't know who she is. But then in the end we find her all alone naked in the room without friends or anything. I think it shows that material objects serve us no purpose in life, what maters is friendship.
Author project
Thank god that the project was shortened because it seemed impossible to get that done in the time we have left. But having it shorter will also make it so that are words are more meaningful because i am not trying to fill space anymore. I also think it will be fun to learn more about the authors because we were not able to learn everything about the authors while reading their works. We will be able to learn more on what caused them to write their works because we know more of what influenced them.
Final Exam thing
I am really glad that our assignment got cut down because it would have been very stressful to do that and all my other school things. I'm also happy that we don't have the normal exam (: I am doing it on Emily Bronte which shouldn't be a bad person to do it on because I think I will find a lot of information on her because of Wuthering Heights.

Modern Period
So unto the Modern Period! Sounds like its going to be a good chapter. I hope the literature is interesting. I mean the literature that we read is interesting and all but I hope that it has more of the stuff that we like. The history that we learned today was really cool, I mean it was not that long ago if you think about that.

the test.
i think that the test was somewhat easy, but them signal man questions really got me.. like danngg. i didn't understand and the one italian sonnet thing.. but i think i did pretty good on the history.. but yep! hopefully i did good, the essays are kinda iffy though.
