1st paper, and class.... yeah
Okay so, I learned some more about what I need to do with my paper today. I had written about the story "Boys and Girls", but I am not sure that story is long enough to write about. I think I am going to write about "The Yellow Wallpaper", because it has more to it, in a way. However, I am going to have to read it again to understand what I need to understand to write a paper. When I do write about a story, I am going to have to focus on one point in the paper. For example, in class today, we talked about Liz's paper. She could choose to write about how Miss Emily could have taken responsibility for her own actions in "A Rose for Emily", or how the townspeople should not have allowed Miss Emily to live above the law, just because of her social status. The paper could focus on either one of these aspects. If I plan on writing about "The Yellow Wallpaper", I could focus on how the husband's condescending and dismissive manner toward his wife had a negative affect on her. Hopefully I will be able to write enough pages, though. I did not even write 2 full pages on the first draft. But anyway, talk to you people later. peace
