Cyrano De Bergerac 5.17.09

I am finally done reading the play Cyrano De Bergerac. While I was reading Act 4 I came across the quote "Oh, don't take it so hard. I drove into this madness. Every woman needs a little madness in her life." I believe this quote is true, in some ways depending on the woman. This is because my mom's friend Carla used to watch my sister and I everyday on the week days after school, she made us run around like maniacs. We would have to pick up kids here and there take them to their after school activities go to Costco make dinner, clean the house then pick all the kids up. It soon became a daily routine, and she couldn't sit still she always had to be running around, and to this day everyone still calls her run around Carla, because she always needed a little craziness in her life. This quote reminded me of those days, it brought back good memories of when I was little. So I do sort of agree with this quote, because I know that she has to have a little madness in her life. I think Cyrano was trying to say don't take it personally, I brought you into this drama, and I don't really feel bad about it , because girls can handle drama they need some madness or drama in their life's that is what girls do. This play was really hard for me to understand, and very confusing, but I am glad I got to experience it because I have never read a play before.

Cyrano de Bergerac 5.7.09

This play was basically about a man named Cyrano who has a very big nose. So he thinks that no girl would ever like him so he tried to make himself a personal hero, while doing that he falls in love with his cousin named Roxane. To be quite honest I didn't really enjoy the play and it was kind of confusing. Here is a quote that I found while reading this play. "Swine! Did I not forbid you to appear?" this quote is from Act 1 and I thought it was funny, becuase swine flu is a very popular topic at the moment, and even if he isn't talking about the flu I still found it funny, how a word I have never heard of before all of a sudden pops up everywhere. Thats all for now more to come later.

Sealed with a Diss

I am now reading the next book in the Clique series Sealed with a Diss by Lisi Harrison. So far The Pretty Comittee girls were introduced to their new and private living space located on the campus of Octavian Country Day School. The room was AH-MAZING ! and it also included something suppeerr special a secret room to spy on the boys, and their new EPS class. Where the boys talk about their girlfriends, or the girls that they are intersted in, with help from a counselor. Claire is really excited to see what Cam is going to say about her , while the other girls or more intersted in how they will be able to spy without them seeing. the 8th grade alphas set up a teddy bear with a camera inside and a computer monitor, so they will have full sight on the whole class. The girls are super excited and I wonder what is going to happen next, I guess im just going to have to keep reading !
