Rose Nerges: Ready, Set, Blog!
http://rnerges.blogspot.com/2007/09/ready-set-blog.html
Wednesday, September 5, 2007. Ready, Set, Blog! I set up my literature blog for my English 30 class. I took this class because it would force me to read outside of my comfort zone. Normally I like to read Biographies and Auto-Biographies. I loved Marlon Brando's. Songs my Mother Taught Me. I am mostly interested in real life stories, but I can appreciate the imagination of fiction. She said, "No I'm reading that! This is not the only coincidence I share with Jessica. We both have flat feet, and wear ...

Rose Nerges: The Swimmer
http://rnerges.blogspot.com/2007/10/swimmer.html
Monday, October 15, 2007. In the story, the swimmer. The main character Neddy is swimming across the country. As he is swimming we find out that he pissed off some people along the way but he does not remember. What a convenient memory Neddy has? We see him start to consume excessive amounts of alcohol. We come to find out that even his family is gone and he cannot remember why. The pools become empty, and Neddy reaches the cold hard reality of his actions. Some people try to eat their problems away.

Monday, October 15, 2007. The Story Of An Hour. The Story Of An Hour,. Before the 1940's women were not allowed to have careers other than a school teacher or a nurse. They were expected to be domestic slaves. They were expected to not have strong opinions and they were thought of as fragile beings. Today women can even fight in combat in this country.

Thursday, November 29, 2007. I loved this poem. A lot of life is about losing, although some losses you never get over. I read on someone's grave in Westminster Abbey, "All things must come to an end.". It seems like just reading the poem that she gets over the loss, "even losing you."However when I heard her voice fill with sadness when she read One Art, shows me that there are some losses you never get over.

Sunday, November 11, 2007. The Glass Menagerie was perhaps my favorite piece of literature read in class yet. The characters are tragically realistic. All of them try to escape through something, Laura escapes into her tiny glass menagerie collection, while Amanda lives in the past, and Tom goes to the movies. Why not go out and experience it yourself? Although, I believe that the longer generations stay in America, their language, culture and traditions begin to fade. I am told that I am Spanish, Irish ...

Rose Nerges: Everyday Use
http://rnerges.blogspot.com/2007/11/everyday-use.html
Sunday, November 11, 2007. Dee also has changed her name to Wangero, because she calls Dee a slave name. It is true that American's slaves were wiped of their identities and African names. Although, I believe that the longer generations stay in America, their language, culture and traditions begin to fade. I am curious as to where my own family came over to America. Did they come over on the coffin ships over from Ireland during the potato famine? Did they sail the seas with the Spanish Armada?
