| I often wonder if my actions affect whether or not certain facts exist. If I ask the question on way, then this other person will indeed also love the book in question. However, if I lead the inquiry in a different form, and snake around the issue, I will find that they simply were going off of name recognition, and really have no intimate knowledge of the work in question.
But that's really conceited, isn't it? |

| I feel like IB English is something of what I've wanted all along; however, I do know that I will grow bored with it. Of course, writing a short story diagram (Exposition, conflict, etc.) isn't my idea of anything remotely stimulating, but I can deal with it if it means a 100 test grade (In a 5.0 class, no less). Still, it is saddening when I look at the book we're reading, and realizing that I have read better (And more provocative) novels in Middle School. Granted, they weren't school assigned *Shivers at the thought of The Giver*.
It is never helpful when you think out your opinion on a novel, tell it to the class, and have your teacher respond, "Yeah, I can see that." He then follows it up with his idea, the idea that should be written down as the "answer." He is the one who infers outside of what is written down, into whole other dimensions that no one else wishes to entertain or even half-heartedly support.
Regardless, I'd rather write narratives than essays. |

| The sadness that comes at the idea that we are powerless is what allows people to believe lies. Nothing means anything, they just are.
