Okay, so I carry a lot of stuff with me all day. I knew we were going to have to do this assignment too, I probably should have cleaned out my purse. I think I have a whole page typed of just what trash was in my purse. Nice.
So I was actually wondering if anyone could give me a little bit of insight on what we talked about Monday. I had to leave in the middle of the class for a dentist appt. I left basically exactly when he stopped talking about quizzes everyday and was about to go into the lecture. Help please? Trust me, I wasn't happy to be leaving class. I would have rather been there. She filled two cavities and changed all my fillings to clear. I was so numb it felt like I could have eaten my tongue.
I should probably blog less about my life and more about English class. But I don't know what we did. So I need to. So we can talk about it. Lets make Laz happy.
I could talk about the reading. Which I actually really liked. It kind of annoyed me how creepily obsessed with Martha Jimmy Cross was, but I understood that they kept referring back to it because that was the reason that Ted Lavender died. I really liked the way the story was told because it's kind of different insight on people -- looking @ what they carry and what is really significant in their life. I also liked how it seemed kind of like O'Brien was a character because he was narrating, but he was all in the minds of other people. And I don't care how lucky you thought it was, I would never carry around a dead man's thumb.

Hey Meg I'll help you out for yesterday! As soon as you left we went straight into a history lesson if you will. We learned that the defeat of the SPanish Armada by the British happened in 1588. This makes Britian an up and coming power in the world and at the time Queen Elizabeth I was in power til 1603. The came James I until 1625 and Charles the first until 1649 when the English civil war broke out. Henry VIII who came before Elizabeth started Anglicanism which was a branch of Protestant. Anyways Puritans take the bible very literally while the Anglicans don't thus they don't get along. The Puritans are for Parliament while Anglicans are for the Monarch (of course because Henry created the religion!) As time goes on the two sides disagree on things until 1649 when the English civil war breaks out. Thats an overview of what we did, but I think I covered just about everything..
Thanks so much! Now I better get 100% tomorrow.
