Stariha is rubbing off

This doesnt have to do with college English but with acting lol. We are working on monologues with a British Dialect and tonight in the shower I was practicing mine and my sister comes in and asks me if I was talking on my phone in the shower! I told her what I was doing and she told me I was crazy and that I sounded like a complete idiot....the story of my life! I guess the moral of the story is unless you dont want to be viewed like Stariha do not practice monologues where others can see you when they are in dialect because they will laugh at you and you will be called crazy. Also we graduate a month from from today. AHHHHHHHHH

Awkward

So today we discussed the 'awkward' part of The Color Purple. Earlier on this week I talked to my dad about how I didn't think this book should have caused such controversy. He said he thought it was because people choose to focus on just a certain part and not the whole message. After discussing this part more in our lit groups, I just think it's amazing how authors can put details in books for certain reasons, and we can entirely miss them.
