A Doll's House Act Two

1.  My impression of Nora hasn't changed at all. I still find her annoying and I don't like her.  Nora tried to prevent Torvald from finding out her secret by begging him to keep Krogstad on so Krogstad wouldn't tell Nora.  Krogstad wanted his letter to scare Nora.  Mrs. Linde thinks she can help Nora by giving her advice.

3.  The miracle might be Torvald not finding out about Nora's secret.

6.  If Nora accepted help from Dr. Rank Torvald may have checked his mail and found the letter.

7.  What is "Federigo's Falcon?

8.  I think people can learn that if you treat your woman the way Torvald does you're gonna lose her, at least i most cases.

A doll's house Act One

1. As I finished Act One my only thoughts were "I wish Nora would stop being so annoying."  Torvald and Nora have recently received the news that Torvald has been made manager of the bank.  Nora got the money for Italy from Krogstag.  Krogstag threatens Nora because Torvald is firing him and he has blackmail against her so why not.

3.  Nora treats Torvald as a king, but is disobedient when she can be, as long as he doesn't find out.  Torvald treats Nora like a child that can't control herself.

4.  I don't think Nora has any strengths.  I think her weaknesses are her spending habits and her annoyance levels.

6.  ...I have no idea...

7.  Their close mindedness, their complex lives, their worries and problems, and a great many other things.

Nora

klsdhnolaolxdf

Nora is a "spendthrift" she loves spending money and has ever since she was younger.  She is a "sweet little lark" and obedient to her husband like all women of the time were.  In my opinion she's really annoying.  There's just something about her that annoys the living daylight out of me.  I don't know what to say about Nora, she's a shopaholic, obedient, and annoying like you wouldn't believe.  Finally, her only purpose in life is to please her family.

Half a Day--School Memory

Step up day, commonly referred to as the scariest day of my life; scarier even then the first day of middle school.  I arrived at school early with my brother wearing God knows what and a hideous green and yellow purse.  In my purse I had EVERYTHING, from paper and pens to a toothbrush; I had to be prepared, you never know what might happen in middle school.  We were each given our own schedules and had to follow the seventh graders to their classes, sounds simple enough right? WRONG! I couldn't find anyone with the same schedule as me nor could I find anyone with the same class, I had to run all around the school on my own to find the classes I was supposed to be in.  At the end of the day i was exhausted and not too excited for middle school.

Apartheid in South Africa

Between 1948 and 1994 South Africa ran under a legal system of racial segregation called apartheid.  The rights of the non-white inhabitants, who also happened to be the majority were oppressed and dominated whereas the whites and minority continued their rule.  There were many laws prohibiting non-whites from doing a multitude of things including, not being able to marry a white person, where non-whites were allowed to live, and separation between races in all public places. 

Amnesty--A Daughter's Diary

Dear diary,

Although I only met my father for the first time when I was six, I knew a lot about him.  Mother often told me stories of what he did and why he wasn't home, she even showed me a picture of him.  Even though I didn't really understand why he wasn't with us, I knew he'd be home soon and I knew I'd love him.  Now that I look back, I've never had much of a relationship with my father, since he's rarely ever home and when he is he's always working.  I'm proud of my father for everything he has and continues to do to help us gain freedom, but I wish his work didn't have to interfere with our relationship.. a girl needs her father around to love her and help her as she grows up.  I wish he hadn't missed my first years of life or all the time he's missed due to work, but I know it's for the greater good and I'm just glad he's alive.

Sindbad's Next Great Adventure!!!

   Sindbad

 Little Fred

Sindbad has always dreamed of sailing to the great island of Madagascar where there is said to be glorious treasures no man could even dream of.  He knew this journey would be great and did not want to bring a crew of merchants to share his treasures with, instead he brings his apprentence Fred.  They sail off at the crack of dawn on what was thought to be a glorious day, little did Sindbad know the weather would take a turn for the worst in an instant.  Sindbad's ship sailed quickly through the still ocean and by noon they were ahead of schedule and nearing a island they had never seen before.  As they sailed nearer, the weather became worse and worse with waves rising a hundred feet high or more and a sleet rain mix pelted the ship and poor little Fred too.  Unexpectedly, lighting struck the ships tallest mast causing it to come crashing down destroying everything in its path.  Sindbad and Fred narrowly escaped the crushing pillar and jumped over board praying Allah would grant them safe passage to the island.  Lucky for them they washed up on shore with little more than a few bumps and bruises.  No sooner had they washed ashore were they pelted with lime green coconuts.  They searched frantically for their attackers, but were alarmed  to see the coconuts zooming through the air on their own!  Little did they know the coconuts where actually being thrown by pirate ninjas who were far too skilled to be seen.  Little Fred booked it to the nearest hideout and fell in a trap! Sindbad ran to save his little apprentence, but was captured and hung upside down by his toes from an orange cactus. Fred sat in the hole to rot and they were never seen again.

THE END
