BAND CAMP STORY!!
This on time at band camp... there was a dead silence in the dawn of the summer morning. it was a ordinary day... or that is what it seemed like. everybody was inside the school getting their instruments for the morning drill. as i approached the school i heard one snare drum...ra-ta-ta-ta ra-ta-ta-ta ra-ta-ta-ta... when i walked in past the doors to the auditorium to the band room everyone was warming up. i want to go talk to my friend. when i got to him, he didn't say anything. it was strange but i thought he was having a bad day. we all soon started to go out side for drills. it wasn't a normal band camp morning. then it happened. as we were heading outside past the auditorium doors, the TUBA MONSTER came out from the darkness of the auditorium. he was seven feet tall and his four fingering valves were glowing red. he was eating everyone with his very large bell. i had no where to go. all hope was long gone. at that point i realized that i was next to be devoured by the musical beast. there was nothing i could do...
Paper
One down, one more to go. I am so happy to finally be done with the critical analysis paper... but then there is that research one looming down over my head. I guess just a second to breath then back to work. Oh well, only a few more weeks of school then freedom! I suppose it wouldn't be as sweet without ending with a paper that is bigger than all of the papers I have ever written in my life (haha just kidding but at the moment it feels life it.) All I can say is I better learn a lot and be an expert on my author be the end of this!
Wuthering Heights
Alright, so I am going to be honest; I am really having some issues getting into this book. Its hard because I cant get over the fact that we are just reading someones made up story... That this is just what someone from a long time ago came up with in their head? Yeah, I understand that it is good literature and all, but its still made up. Maybe if it was connected to this history more, or there was something clear that we should be learning from it?...
I don't know..
alright, I'm done complaining...
Now.

Critical Theory
As much as this CT paper has been a pain, I really enjoyed writing it. It kinda gave me a feel for a "deeper" sort of writing. Ya know, something that didn't just have an answer, but instead was the way you felt about something. Kind of expressing your feeling through writing, by way of literature?.. It also has made me look at literature more intensely as well, like as far as motives and intents behind it.. But to that I wonder if the writer has any of these intents at all? Or if our interpretations are completely off. I mean honestly Frankenstein could just be a poor attempt at a ghost story.
Just so you know...
Random Comment: I deleted my facebook account. I would post that on facebook but, since i don't have one anymore, I can't :) Since a lot of my friends are in brit lit, i decided to post it on here just in case they try to get on my facebook profile or something and they're stunned because it's not there lol. Anyway, i just finished the critical theory thingy which made me get behind in Wuthering Heights. And i just got the email that part one of the next project is due friday but Idk how I can even do part one if I don't know what it even is....so if someone wants to help me out on that so i don't fail, please feel free :)
