Handmaids tale. 1-45

so far i like this book. im still kinda confused about it but i like it. i like the details the author gives about everything you can picture ever little detail she gives.

Scence Presentations.

Well i think the concept of this assignment was really easy. i personally hate getting in front of the class so i wasnt super excited about it. I did like my group though they made ti so it wasnt as hard to be up there. I kinda wish we had more time to get props but over all i liked the assignment and it did help me understand our scenes better.

Act 2 scene 2

In  this scene i am playing Lady Mc Beth. At the beginning of the scene she is talking about how she drugged the guards so that they can frame them for murdering the king. after she talks to herself she is worried they guards will wake up before Mc Beth kills the king and they can plant the evidence. when Mc beth finally comes back lady MB tries to calm him down but gets made he still has the daggers and goes to bring them to the drugged guards. when she comes back they talk more about the murder and then they hear knocking and go to the chambers so they dont get caught.

McBeth paper topic

I want to write about Lady Mc Beth and Mc Beth's Relationship. In my paper I want to talk about how Lady MB helps her husband kill characters and help him stay sane while the guilt of their actions start to wear on Lady MB. she is a very dedicated wife but when lady MB dies her husband only cares about the battle ahead of him.

Questions:
Alli: So is your topic the irony of their relationship? or the irony of how she goes crazy and kills herself?
-I think my topic will be about the irony of the relationship because through out the play it seems to be a strong relationship but in the end the reader finds out it may not be as strong as implied in earlier scenes of the play.
Chris: So is the reason she killed herself because of her crappy life with Mc Beth?
-i dont think its was her crappy life i think it was because of crappy decisions they made.

Daddy

I enjoyed reading this poem a little bit more. it is about a young girl being brought up around WWII. I think its about how her father died when she was young so he couldnt help her through the holocaust and she hates her father for abandoning her at her time of need and thats why she doesnt like her husband either because she doesnt want to get close enough to him and then him leave her.

Leda and the Swan

This poem is really interesting to me but i really dont know what its underling message is supposed to be. all i really took from the poem is that Leda was being forced to have sex with the swan. when i googled this poem so i could read i noticed that this poem is a representation of Greek mythology where Zeus takes form as a swan and rapes the girl name Leda.

The Chimney Sweeper And London

The Chimney Sweeper:
The boys mother died
his father sends him to work
he wasn't allowed to complain about it
his job is to sweep chimneys 

Tom is crying
his was curly but now he is bald
tells the Tom not to worry about his hair being gone
without hair the soot wont get in it

He was quiet about his hair and then that night
While he was sleeping he had a weird dream
He sees thousands of chimney sweepers and some he knows
They all were dead

An Angel came to help set them free
he unlocked all the coffins to release them
In a field they laugh an run around
they play in the river and relaxed in the sun

the were naked with no belongings
they go above the clouds and play in the wind
The Angle talks to Tom and tells him if he is good,
The angle would have God talk to his dad so he would never want joy

Tom woke up in the middle of the night
got all his cleaning supplies and went to work
Morning was chilly but he was still in a good mood
so if everyone does there job they dont need to fear anything


London:
I walked though each street
near by where the river flows
in every face i meet
every one is weak and sad

In all the men who cry
they babies cry in fear
Every one was cursed
He hears everyone's mind trapped

The chimney sweeper are unhappy
the churches are up set
soilders dont want to go to war
the palace is responsible for the blood

so he hears the most at night on the streets
the young whores curse
cause the babies to cry
 people are dying because of a disease
