It's like 10,000 thoughts, when all you need is a blog....

While on the computer, packing for Reno, and maintaining my fantasy baseball team, I thought, well, why not blog? But what to blog about? The what seemed like 100 hero books we read? Or the 10 women books that we read that just never seemed to end? Or those soul-crushing soul-selling books? Why not talk about irony? Too many questions? Hmmm. Anyway, let's talk about every single book we have read throughout our high school career. They all seem to mesh together with tragedies, heroes, women, plot twists, framing, motifs, themes, and symbols. But it's the books that really stick out in my mind like: Animal Farm, To Kill A Mockingbird, Julius Caesar, The Power of One, The Fountainhead, and A Thousand Splendid Suns. These books are what I believe make up just about every theme we've talked about. These are the classics they ask about throughout our entire lives and we've had these amazing teachers make us analyze and read these books so that we can understand literature. Animal Farm is one of my favorite books even before I knew it was an allegory to the Communist Revolution. Either way, the book is totally B.A. To be honest, I have never really liked English as a subject, I am and always will be a history buff, and that's why I will becoming a history education major. But the books that have historical context to them, such as Animal Farm, really spark my interest in learning. But now that I've rambled on to the point of being crazy, or am I? Or was this all the insane ramblings of those that the narrator in The Tell Tale Heart did? OH! BAM! Gotcha Mrs. Burnett. I bet you think that I'm crazy, just like the narrator. Being focused only on one thing, books, just like he was with the eye. Everyday I have these ramblings in class and I am just as insane on concentrating on one subject just as he was, except I don't plan on killing anybody, just watching Terminator 2 like 10,000 times. So before you give this blog a 0, just remember the similarities the narrator and I have in our ramblings. In all seriousness I really enjoy blogging, I really enjoyed this year's class, and I really enjoy going to lunch immediately afterwards. (Just kidding, but seriously I do love lunch.) It's been a blast, I'm super psyched to pass the AP test which you have more than prepared us for, :) and I hope to be a great teacher just as you are. PS: This is not some lame attempt to suck up. ;)
