Test

The defininition part of the test was pretty easy, and being at the beginning made it a good confidence boost, as did the name line having a point value. I thought the second part of the test was pretty hard. I forgot most of the author's names, which is really going to hurt me. I also forgot a few of the character's names, in my mind they were "the person who did this". I guess I remember concepts a lot better than names. Determining which play the quotes was from was pretty easy, most of them i remembered the exact lines and the ones that i didn't it was pretty easy to tell from context but still, missing author and character names is going to hurt my grade. The essay part wasn't too bad, the questions were pretty straight foward. I did the first question and one of the second questions. I thought the first question was pretty easy to answer, especially with the email we got last night giving me an oppertunity to ponder the subject as I fell asleep. It was much better than having to answer three of the bottom questions. I also answered the question about gender and violence intersecting, using lysistrata and Titus Andronicus as the pieces, which seemed like the obvious choice. My annotated bibliography is going well, having to look up most of the sources for last week's draft really helped get on track and the fact that the whole thing is due next week isnt too stressful since I already have a portion of it done and the test is out of the way. Spring break being right around the corner doesn't hurt either.
