Weary
We've known each other since we were kids
You where there when I was throwing fits
Holding me close hugging me with you silk smooth touch
I would take you everywhere
But it started to tare
I wanted to play around
While you just wanted to sit and lounge
Mother said to find something new
Nothing compares to you
We've known each other since we where kids
You were my everything
But was that even anything
Accepting this is old
Your standards
Its hard to get in this mold
Therefore, it's over.
This video explains the events that happened on December 3, 1971, at the Unoversity of El Paso or also known as UTEP. I explain everything that I wrote in my report on the report tab. I incorporated videos that I took as well as photos that I found while doing my research. I added some of my personality to this video to make just that more personal.

Maryce and I went to the Bad Date play that our school's theater team did and I enjoyed it a lot. This play is one of the best ones that I have seen a school theater club do and be intreating. With the amount of money they had to make this play, they did such a great job in the background and the props. My favorite part of the play was when something in the back group happened. In one case security had to come and take one of the persons out because of their behavior. I would recommend people to go and support our theater team and watch their play since they are good and enjoyable.

I came late, therefore,I didn’t get the full experience. However I did see the half of the end of the show and it was very nice. One of my friends told me what the first half was about so I got caught up. The play was very attention grabbing and I wasn't distracted at all, I liked every character especially Miguel who didn't actually go to Mexico but pretended he did and pretended he was “into the culture”. Additionally I liked the humor in the play and how the “surfer dude” was funny but, yet gave a good lesson about finding the “right one”.
This presentation was an analyzed Doing Literacy Criticism, chapter 10 Feminist Criticism for Students: Benefits of Feminist Criticism. We gather main points from the passage and presented them in this slide show.
For our presentation we were supposed to go over pages 129-132 and gather information and examples on the section assigned.
Woman's voice portrayed in literature.
The stories that were written had a pattern: a female protagonist who comes to find her true worth with who she is and ends with a happy marriage or on her own. Example: Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Husrton.
Many women found it difficult to portray their message even if it did go against patriarchal standards. Example: The Tenant of Wildfell Hall by Anne Brontë.
Therefore, many stories subdued the socially assigned role in the household for a woman.
Some women took the risk and difficult task to go against the political grain and write books just mentioned no matter the pushback they received. Example: Susan Warner’s The Hills of the Shatemuc.
During the 19th century, there was a paradox for female writers: Despite an open door for their work to be seen, they were thrown into a thin chamber of creativity, which limited their creative freedom. One example of this is the many works of Jane Eyre.
The common image of women in the 19th century was one that led women to work extra hard to find their own place in a majorly male dominated space. Examples being Jane Austen, Emily Dickinson, the Bronte Sisters, and etc -- often portrayed as shy, reclusive, and submissive in personality.
