I feel like I can relate to the poem from last Thursday "Did I Miss Anything" because I have not really been here all week. Due to the school closing on Thursday and missing school of Tuesday because of the Slice of Life at U of M,.
Monday we did a lot of talking about our new poem "Bright Star" and we read our SSR books. We talked a lot about who we could relate to and identify with from "Bright Star" in regards to the speaker, the speaker's lover, and the bright star. Personally I felt more akin to the bright star rather than the other two for a couple of reasons. The first being I feel like I have been steadfast in my ways for most of my life. Also I am not like the speaker or his lover because I do not have the kind of affection or received that sort of affection from any other person. I checked out shmoop to see the analyze portion of the website. It I read a little bit of loyalty section which went into depth about the speaker's loyalty to his lover. Even bringing up the idea that the speaker is more concerned about himself rather than his lover. Tuesday we got into our groups and spent a large amount of time discussing which short stories we wanted to read for our project. My group decided to read the drunkard and rape fantasies for the humor section. We have not gotten a chance to begin reading however we were able to talk a little about what exactly is humor in a literary sense. However we were able to take a look at the passages about humor. I look forward to reading both short stories and talking about them with Sloan and Luco for out project. *Note* Sorry about the late post everything minus the last few sentences had been written. It's just a little difficult to do these blogs when you miss a lot of the week.
