I obviously have no idea what I'm doing so I'll just post my english notes because why not enjoy boring american literature

Wow she didn't cover frost or stevens, so dramamtic..

But we can't cut faulkner (i have no idea who these people are help)

Oooo poetry. So excited

Yay no dramas

Oof spaced out three minutes into the class yipee

Looks like we won't get into the twentieth century much folks

Oh wait we might actually have dramas my dudes

Getting tests back too boy am I glad about those

The stress is on

The banana girl is anxious

Oof got a 78. Last test was an 88. Not surprised---I didn't pay much attention this time around.

Time to switch my gears if I want an A. got two more exams. Lets try this again. Oh yeah i also have an essay.edit: two essays

I expected a C. moving on

Spaced out again 14 minutes into class wow am i ok

Wait are we not going over the literature today im confused looks like we're focusing on the test for an hour and fifteen minutes?

I don't care

I don't care

I don't care

I'm never taking an English class or Literature class ever again my god are they boring

^strategized headbanging so people won't think I'm weird

02iopqwklas,mzx93riejwkdmx 85ireojsdlkxz.,

^actual head banging. Can confirm people think I'm weird.

The dude behind me won't stop staring at my laptop. Look at your own dam laptop dam the dam

My teacher is indirectly calling me out i feel bad now. Ok jeez i dont like you either.

Read "The Storm" by Kate Chopin if you want a taste of what we've read so far. If you think that was weird, read some of the poems from "Song of Myself" by Walt Whitman

American lit writers are really horny

We're still going over the test, 29 minutes into the class

*considers falling asleep*

No i have to drive home after this class darn it

Huh i have 3 hours and 45 minutes left of battery life on my laptop. Haven't charged it for a week

I got it for $400. Gotta love chromebook

Compare that to the macbook we got four years ago and it barely lasts half a day without needing a charge. That cost roughly $1,000.

I really should have failed this test. How the heck did I pass with a 78. I didn't even read one of the four books we were tested on and read none of the poems.

Space out number three

Toronto was a creepy city

Are we done with the test? Are we free? Can I actually put my notes on here?

Ok my dudes we're reading a poem richard cory

Speeding typing contest 3 2 1sorry for the bad typos this isnt what the poem looks like

Whenever richard coyr whent down town

....

She moved the book sorry guys

...

And admirably schooled in every grace

In fine we though that he was everything

To make us wish that we were in his place

So we worked, and waited for the light,

And went without meat, and cursed the bread

And richard cory, one calm summer night,

Went home and put a bullet through his head

Hmm yes 8/10 i like my typing skills

Winters were very hard in maine

If suicide was going to happen, it was going to happen in the winter, when the days were shorter for some reason idk my dudes

"Put a bullet" lets focus on that

No i did not try poetry writing

You should have put "shot" instead of "put" because reasons and the writer was a genius because he put the verb "put"

Discussion on the use of the verb "put" for the next ten minutes, cue me spacing out again

Oh yes the rest of the poem is back speed typing hee be the full poem

When richard cory went down tot town

We people on the pavement looked at him

He was a gentleman from sole to crown

Clean favored and imperially slim

And he was quietly arrayed

And he was always human when he talked

And stull he fluttered pulses when he said

Good morning and he glittered when he walked

And he was rich yes richer than a king

And admirably schooled in every grace

In fine we though that he was everything

To make us wish that we were in his place

So we worked, and waited for the light,

And went without meat, and cursed the bread

And richard cory, one calm summer night,

Went home and put a bullet through his head

"Sole" has a double meaning

Get it cause the man is alone

"Sole" as in the sole of your foot and "sole" as in alone

And then "soul" as in he had a problem with his soul cuz he killed himself

I hate this class.

He glittered when he walked guys--he represents hope to all the other plebeians

But shocker he put a bullet in his head

Next poem:

Miniver Cheevy (minivan chevy?)

No this poem be too long

My fingers hurt

Oh wow look an alcoholic

How can anyone chase the seasons?

He don't like world and wish he was never born

Wishes he was born at a different time

                     How did you get this from "assailed the seasons" are you ok english professor

Apparently minivan wanted to be born farther in the past

So he though about thebes and camelot and stuff idk

He thought the past was a better place. Ok weirdo when you have to piss and drink out of the same place as cows and pigs don't come here whining and complaining

Minivan thinks of larger than life stories (ie Oedipus, King Arthur Camelot lancelot idk)

      Even though they don't end well

He looks at the bigger heroic picture and fantasizes about it (abnormal psych creeps in: could minivan be schizoid? Probably not)

He be thinking romance and art are dead

Minivan doesn't think romance means anything or isn't as pure anymore.

He thinks art is dead and not expressive anymore art from his period is nothing compared to the italian renaissance

                        Art doesn't have a place nor is it appreciated

Why is Art and Romance capitalized

I dont know does it matter

Art and romance be capitalized because they're personifications if you havent noticed

*checks the time*

Darn it, 13 minutes left ok so minivan wanted to be born in the medeival times and in the renaissaince and stuff

Views on culture-----something is missing, but minivan can't find it

Medici: very famous italian family in the renaissance featured in a lot of artwork

Wanted to be one, would have had to morally compromise himself to be apart of them because the medici were mean

And minivan thought about the past a lot

Darn it 9 minutes left

Ok so Minivan Chevy was born too late says the poem

     And kept on thinking and then decided that since he can't be apart of it, he'll just drown out his sorrows with alcohol

Scratched he head and kept on thinking

Minivan coughed and called it fate

And kept on drinking

Oh one thing I got right in this class, minivan was an alcoholic

Five minutes left ok im done taking notes hope you guys enjoyed im posting this at end of class

Forgive my typos i don't really care about them. I'm tired

Ok im going home folks

why is she still talking, its 2:15

let me go

LET ME GOO
