essay 4

I have finally decided what I am going to write about for essay. I have decided that I am going to write about the novel, A Child Called it, and the screenplay, Precious. Both movies share similar aspects despite the difference between the two genres. Both characters and story lines are similar. They both are being abused by their parents, but they both have different pathways out. Well, That's all for this week!

Week 4/8-4/12

This week in English we were going to talk about the novel The Great Adventures of Kavalier & Clay. However, hardly anyone in class finished reading the novel. I did not finish reading the novel, but I did Google the the book and from what I read it seems like an interesting book and when I do find time once the semester is over I am going to go a read the novel. Also, we received a new essay assignment and as always I do not know what I am going to write about. Well, see you later.

Poems

This week we are once again, discussing poems. I personally, did not like any of the poems this week. Probably because most of them are too long. I really despise long poems. Well, anyways my group had to discuss the poem Lines. The poem was about four pages long. I really did not understand the poem, I got that he was revisiting Tintern Abbey, but I thought his sister was dead and not there with him. The group also thought the same as I did. Well, that is all for this week!

Essay

This week in English we are writing and peer reviewing our essays. I am writing my essay on symbolism used in the Glass Menagerie.  Some symbols that I could think of was the unicorn, fire escape, and glass. I am thinking about changing my topic to how all the characters escape because I can not think of anymore symbols. Well that is all for now!

This week

This week I did not really like any of the readings except for A Good Man is Hard to Find. I actually enjoyed that reading. As for the other two readings, I did not get them and thought they were weird.
