Today we looked at half of a short story called, "A Rose For Emily". Currently it is describing a short fat girl who is wealthy due to her father. Her father recently passed away but had high status. Emily has a big house but doesn't take care of it or herself. She has a black servant named Tobe and we also learned that she isn't paying any taxes. This is due to her father lending the town some money. I don't know where the story is going next but I will explain the rest tomorrow. I am currently catching up on missing assignments in an attempt to bring my grades up.
Today we analyzed another poem about a firetruck in the city. I am still not sure what the significance of the figure 5 was on the truck. The questions were relatively easy but as I mentioned I didn't understand the true meaning of the poem. I could visualize it clearly though so the sketch was easy as well. School is coming to an end but all I feel is burnt out so I am hoping to gain a little motivation.
