I know no one is excited about the research paper that we were assigned, considering the required length. I’m thinking it will be a little fun for me though, because every story that I have read so far I liked. I know once I finish doing my research, I will have a better understanding of whichever one I chose. My most favorite by far is “Sonny’s Blues”. Although I find it a little difficult to analyze these stories, the questions we went over in class are very helpful.

Unfortunately I was unable to see “The Importance of being Earnest” because the tickets were sold out last week. However I did see “The Rocky Horror” on tonight and I am absolutely disgusted.I wish someone would have warned me. It was absolutely HORRIBLE. I did not like anything about that show. Through the entire show the characters were on stage half naked. They were literally showing there butt. I do not find anything interesting or funny about watching people perform half naked. I was so uncomfortable.I am so mad that I wasted my money. I was getting so annoyed to the point I almost walked out, but had I done that I would not have anything to write about and of course I want my extra credit. I have definitely learned my lesson. That is to make sure that I am aware of all content that will take place before I decide to see something that I know nothing about. I left that show feeling like UGH……Sorry guys but I just had to vent on this one

Tonight I will be going to see a play, for extra credit, at University of Houston. It is titled “The Importance of Being Earnest”. I don’t have a clue what this play is about. I just hope that it is interesting, so that my mind doesn’t drift off elsewhere, considering that I have to write about it. What ever happens I will definitely fill you guys in.For those of you who have intentions on seeing a play this month you can go see one at U of H for only ten bucks with a student i.d.

I began reading A Dolls House and I have to admit that I do not like this one as much as Othello. Although I have not finished reading A Dolls House, I am pretty much at the end and I do not seee much drama taking place. Who doesn’t want drama?That is what kept my attention with Othello, all of the crazy things going on. So now I am really expecting something to catch me by surprise with A Dolls House. Also, I am wondering what significance does the title carry.

I just finished reading some of Othello. Gosh, that lago know he is visous. He is determined to get revenge on Othello, by any means. lago is definitely not to be trusted. He absolutely has no heart at all. With all this drama going on, it really makes me want to see it on tv.I must admit it is smart of lago to play Othello close because as they say the ones closest to you are the ones who can do the most harm. I wonder if lago’s plan is going to work out in the end.Probably not because people of his character usually never have the last laugh. On the flip side, his character keeps me interested because afterall he is the one causing all the drama. For some reason in the end I have a feeling that something is going to come his way that totally throws things off for him . I feel this way because now everything is going just as he plans and he pats himself on the back about it.

I just finished looking on line for a DVD version of Othello. I found one at Barnes and Noble and Wal-Mart. The cheapist one was at Wal-Mart of course for about fourteen dollars. That price is not a bad price, but I wanted to purchase it with rush delivery so of course that was an extra fee. Once I got ready to purchase it after tax , my total came up to twenty seven bucks. Now I am just going to reconsider buying it. I know twenty seven bucks is not much but I was not expecting that price and I am trying my best not to add any extra expenes to my budget. So now I just might reach out to other sources for a better understanding of Othello. I really want to get it , because I know it will help me out so I just might end up buying it, but right now I am not so sure.
