RomeO and JulieX

This week as I was slacking, and procrastinating on all my homework, I went to hulu an online TV website. As always I looked for the newest episode of the Simpson's. Within just the first two minutes of this episode, The Squirt and the Whale, there was a reference to Romeo and Juliet. It was very short, but during an add on the Simpson's TV they have characters kissing each other. I can't explain exactly what happened but just copy and past this link and you'll find it at two minutes. http://www.hulu.com/watch/141735/the-simpsons-the-squirt-and-the-whale

English What a Blast

Well this year has passed faster then I could have hoped. Somehow school didn't seem so boring this year. No doubt that's partly because of English. In class we've covered more then I've ever gone over in any English class, and finally things make sense. Before high school I was a horrible speller, slow reader, and definitely not the best essay writer. But thanks to you Mrs. Gilman I've got a hold on this language I speak every day. During the summer i wasn't sure about this Honors English thing. How could I do well in an Honors class if I could barely handle regular English. But with Beth's encouragement I read that book and wrote that essay. During that time I saw all these strange words motif included. At first I thought it was motive or something, boy was I wrong. I still don't have a full grasp on what it means, but I don't think anyway does. So to sum up this entire blog post...This English class has taught me more then I expected, and I'm glad I made the decision to go to Honors English.
