Friday....had an student conference for english. there's a possibility that i can get an A in the class. i want that A. so i am going to work my butt off like crazy. I really want to redeem myself from last quater...and how i didn't do as well as i would have liked. i got a ton of ideas by talking to professor snart at the conference. Now i just need to put those ideas into paper form. too bad though that i have had severe writer's block for the past oh...two weeks or so. very bad timing for writer's block too if you ask me, it couldn't have come at a more horrible time.

Joy! I think i figured out my English topic. I really got into Jane Austen again. So an idea I have is connecting Jane Austen's life to Pride and Prejudice. Really it's quite amazing that what she wrote about...like not loving the person you marry or not being able to marry the person you love because of social status. well that just really kind of sucks. The other idea I had is to link the idea of society and how the people back then viewed women and how women were suppose to behave and act then. And it's quite amazing how hmmmm a lot of Jane Austen's characters either fit the sterotypical woman exactly or the complete opposite.
I'm not very good at making outlines on a side note, so we will see how good this one will be for my conference on friday.

it was really hard for me to think of an english topic. at first i was really set on the idea of writing something about hamlet. or even a yellor wallpaper. something we studied in class. but now i just don't want to do that. I want to write something new, or about something new. So i'll will have to continue thinking about some other literature.

So English class. I got a B + on my midterm. not bad. i'm very pleased with it. I'm not sure what i want to do as my topic for my main paper yet. i have a bunch of ideas. but of course with me...my ideas are all over the place. i'm thinking hamlet. because there's so much from there to write about. yeah....MLA quiz on wednesday...i think i'm going to have to read up and study some more about that all over again. I was never really good at citations or word cited...so yeah i probably should read up on it some more.
on a last note...wow blogger got a new look. it's different and a lot more functions...yay! more confusion. naw, not really. it's actually a lot easier to use now.
