Final Thesis

Okay so I have finally decided on my final thesis.. But first I want to explain that I decided to go with the generic topic.. There are a few topics in the Brothers K that I would LIKE to write about but I think the generic topic would be better because I feel like I would definately have more to say.. so thats whats I am doing.

What I know now that I didn't know then..

Throughout the Lit 110 class, I have learned many important things such as: the fact that every story is a retelling, the tragic sense of life, there are no boring books just boring people, and that poetry/sonnets/sonnet therapy is an important aspect of life..

I know that isn't exactly a thesis but I will make it clearer as I go...

:)

Thesis

I know we were supposed to post our thesis sooner but I just CANNOT seem to make up my mind on what I want to write about...

So, I guess i'll just put a few of my ideas until I really make up my mind completely :)

-roles of suffering

or

-ironically how the first chapter is titled "a nice little family".. they actually aren't that nice at all

or

-the generic thesis about what I know now that I didn't know before this class..

There you have it professor, those are my three ideas, I will make up my mind very soon!

Sparknotes vs. The REAL Deal

reading sparknotes instead of actually reading The Brothers Karamazov is like.....

Tiger Woods being a professional dancer

Brushing your teeth with toilet water

Washing your hair with mud

Sleeping with the lights on

.....

I think these make sense?

Haha

Sonnet

I know I was supposed to post this last Friday, however; I did not have internet to post it so here is my sonnet :) ... (and yes it is corney)



I will always cherish your every word
You have changed my life in more than one way
Love lives on forever haven't you heard?
You live in my memory day by day

You taught me how to appreciate life
I love you so much it is plain to see
You could break me, cut me like a knife
I'm happy, I'm free, you help me be me

Silently I sit here, waiting alone
Your broken promise now leaves me shattered
Your heart has turned to a cold hard stone
I was your one and only who mattered

Even though we are in a tough spot now
Your place in my heart is still there, I vow

Sonnet (work in progress)

All I have so far is this...

I will always cherish every word
You have changed my life in more than one way
Love lives on forever haven't you heard?
I overcome obstacles day by day

Baby Lotion

Being the creative person I am (sarcasm) I made a poem off of the bottle of my lotion.. which smells wonderful might I add..

Vanilla Oatmeal

gentle emollients
vanilla essence

moisturize

non greasy
fast absorbing

allergen tested
clinically proven

So i'm kind of confused on whether or not we are suppose to MIX the words up but I guess this is what i'm working with..

:)

THE Sonnet

So I looking up "The Sonnet" and I found a funny little website called Writing a Sonnet for Dummies.. hahaha.

I completely understand that ....

1. It must consist of 14 lines
2. It must be in what is called a "iambic pentameter"
3. It must be written in a various rhyming scheme

You split it up into different like for example: ABABCDCD .. and every A rhymes with the other A's, and each B rhymes with the other B's.

And more importantly, a sonnet has to have some form of an argument.

So I guess these are my guidelines I will follow.. I have NO IDEA what I will write my sonnet about or even who it will be sent but I guess it could be kind of fun :)
