Reflect

So, I'm not 100% sure on what I'm supposed to do on this post. Professor K. said reflections... So I'll reflect. Class: Let's get to "The Raven"! I'm ready for it. Ready isn't the word. I drool over getting to it, anticipate it every day. Who wouldn't? Poe casts a strange and addicting spell on all(the ones I know) of his readers. I've done a poetry breakdown of "The Conqueror Worm"( just lovely), but other than that, Poe has been my enjoy and don't over think author. Actually, thinking back on it I did study some of his stuff in high school, but never wrote about it. So I think that using one of these lit theories to read Poe would be pretty fun. Preferably I'd do historicism/colonial. I feel like that's what'd I'd most want to do on anything though. I AM excited for the group I got put into for our projects. The group does have feminism and gender(i'm blanking on what it's actually called-if it's not gender) which I never would have imagined going along with historicism, but after Professor K. talking about it I can definitely see where the two can overlap with colonial. I'm excited to study...the woman with the strong name. Easy and reads like a beat. Yet, I can't remember it. Of course. But I'm elated and burning with embarrassment to find that there are women who don't hate men that are femnists and have it right. Equality for both sexes. Balance. Why forget about men? That's what life is about. And I just love the fact that the other femnist writer was described on her date card as maybe loving men too much. Ha. Yes...I look forward to these two gals. Maybe I've been avoiding the femnist lense for too long.
Life w/ School and my little girl: ...how did I make it through another week? I think I'll be asking this four times a month.
