March monster blog

This month we read Dr.Jkylle and Mr.Hyde by Robert louis Stevenson.  I personally loved this book and just thought it was amazing.  I feel that everyone has a monster in themselves and that it is human nature to want to live on and have power. Or to get away with a crime or just be bad for a day with no consequences.  This was apparent in both Dorian Grey and Faustus, i do think that many people in this world are trying to get ahead by any means possible and that if they could they would sell their souls for that little bit of power over another man.  I do also think that there are monsters in every single one of us.  I know that if someone tries to hurt my friends or especially my family I scare people.  They never could see me of all people as having a mean side i know some people might think that this is not monstrous behavior but to me it is because I know how to hurt someone so badly they will never be the same and if someone hurts someone i care about all bets for me thinking opt their well being fly out the window.  This month reminded me of myself in that there is a monster there but all of us keep them at bay.

February Monthly Blog

This month we learned about women's suffrage and women's rights and roles in literature.  One paper that was handed out was what it takes to be a successful house wife.  This reminds me of my house I'm expected to cook and clean and do almost everything except pay the bills, I know how stressful it is and how you are supposed to be thankful that you have what you have.  Me and my father but heads about things and how he doesn't understand the pressures of school compared to when he went to high school.  I want to be a good father like he is there isn't a day that goes by that i don't feel loved by him but it doesn't mean i like doing all the chores.  So when i see a commercial or TV show with the dad as a helpless person who can't connect with his children it makes me worry that my kids will hate me. If i could be stay at home dad i would love to be one btu society would frown upon that, but if it meant that my family wold love me and be with me all day then i don't care. When I read about Ednas death I can understand why she did it but I would never do it no matter what type of life i led i would try to make more of a connection with th people around me and try to get to know my children.  But from the children's aspect a mother that doesn't play much of a role in their life i can relate too.  My mother is out of my life completely she and before that she just made us miserable all that time and made us feel like what ever we did it was never good enough for her.  There were other things that she had done but I won't get into it on here.  This month has been a really interesting one especially with all the connection i can make.
