behold all that jazz

Well, I've got to say that English... honors English... with Mrs. Gilman... in room 501... has been pretty......... BOSS!. Despite all the oral presentations, and and Max's bad jokes, I think it's pretty fair to say that I have thoroughly......... very thoroughly.......... enjoyed being in honors english. Basically, the highlights were definitely pie, just pie. I like pie. Some lowlights were probably reading the poetry outloud and any other oral presentations because my voice cracks a boatload...... no me gusta. The people in the class for sure make it a much better time with all the jokes. By the way I just invented a new word for oral presesntations: presentorals.

It is one word and I did a great job.

P.S. are we aloud to ask for extra credit over blogging or do we still get docked points??????? I would actually like a response to this on monday please, or sometime this upcoming week.

P.S.2. Can you tell this is me... Quinn... one of your students... in our class... in room 501??

behold skits

Three parts in the novel I would like to see become skits are first, when Magwitch reveals who he is to Pip in Pip's house/lodging. This is a good part but there are limited parts for people to play. Another part, is the case of Jaggers when Jaggers is defending Molly for the murder. This is also a good part but sort of limited although people could play the people in the jury. One last part for a skit could be when Pip meets Miss Havisham for the first time in her manor. This is a good part because the acting could be really funny(Havisham) but then again there would be very limited parts

behold another question

This week, I became confused with a certain character who is still unidentified to me. He was the man in the corner of Pip's lodging, hidden in the shadows, who Pip tripped over. This is when Abel, or "Provis," is at Pip's lodging as well. This occurs on page 326 at the first page of chapter 40. Thank you

behold the question about great expectations

There were two questions I came across. One, was who was the Avenging Phantom, this was answered. The second question I came across was who is Mr. Waldengarver. I was confused about this because the narrations were talking about Wopsle, and what Woplse was doing, then all of a sudden out of the blue there is this Mr. Waldengarver. I was very confused at this point. "We made all the haste we could downstairs, but we were not quick enough either. Standing at the door was a Jewish an with an unnatural heavy smear of eyebrow, who caught my eyes as we advanced, and said, when we came up with him: "Mr. Pip and friend?" Identity of Mr. Pip and friend confessed. "Mr. Waldengarver," said the man, "would be glad to have the honour." page 256 chapter 31 This part confused me because suddenly Woplse (I thought) disappeared and this new man, Mr. Waldengarver, had appeared out of the blue.

Behold: geat expectations

When Pip says this, he refers to all the good and bad things and experiences that occured in that one day. From high to low, thick to thin, small to large, Pip encountered very good things but also very bad things hence when Pip says the "flowers" part of the quote he means all the good things, and when he says the "thorns" part he refers to all the bad things that can happen.
A day I can relate to this is one day, everything had been going good. I was doing good at activities, having fun and I felt great. Then... that night, when I was at a party with my friends, at centenial, it happened. I was running on this ledge when all of a sudden i smashed my head into the slowing descending ceiling. I ended up with three staples in my head and an everlasting scar.

essay

yo, Walker and Sam, this is a shout out to my homies.
for my first concrete detail, I wrote how reverend Chasuble and miss Prism both have seroius jobs that there is no horse play in so people expect them to be all formal (social standard). for the commentary I wrote when Cecily tries to invite Chasuble on a walk with miss Prism but she says she has to teach. For how their true love prevails is how Chasuble still flirts by saying he would hang on to every worrd of her lips then tries covering it up for it by saing it was a metaphor.
For the second cooncrete detail, i stated how both Chasuble and Prism are of working class citizens and are not super rich to have enough money to do whatever they wish. Commentary for this was how Chhasuble and Prism walk and Prism talks about how working men shouldnt be single and how there are regulations but for the rich, they have all the money to do whatever they wish. Also i stated that jsut becasue they arent rich, it dooesnt mean they cant flirt and still be happy together despite the social expectations. The third concrete detail was how Chasuble and Prism arent expected to be together and like eachother because they are both sincere and rather "squares". Commentary consisted of when Prism chatises Jack's bunburying friend for living onlu for pleasure and Chasuble wants only to christen and read sermons showing how they are both all business and think bad of "fun". How their love prevails is how they still keep making little flirtatious moves to keep the fire going. yupppp basically that is what i got

behold the resol

This year, my resolution is to be a climbing resolution where I will set goals and achieve them. This goal goes through out the whole year not just a sports season. Currently, I am weak and need training but over time i will achieve my goals. Right now I am at a stage known as a V5 climber. The V is a rating sytem. The pros climb V15. My goal is 2 V7's by the end of the year as well as 5 V6's.
To achieve these goals i will be going into the climbing ggym downtown 4-5 times a week to improve strength and endurance as well as technique and balance. My training will include pull-ups lock-offs and other work outs to increase strength etc. As next october, november, and december appoach many competitions will come up that I will enter. This will be a good way to gauge how far I've come along. In conclusion I must send V6's and V7's
