Blind as a Bat

Ok so I am blind completley and totally blind. I cannot for the life of me find Stariha's example of the portfolio on her website! I need a seeing eye dog for sure!! anyone care to help? :P

Quick question. Are we getting our 1984 quizzes back anytime soon? I was just thinking about it and everytime I do I get really nervous. :S

need to blog! :)

Alright so I wasted my entire day today (besides going to church) reading a great book... I don't know if any of you have heard of it but I do know Jen and Megan have for sure. Its the prequil to the immortal serries, called clockwork prince! I finnished it all .. in one day lol 5oo pages yeahh buddy. But it is set back in London. In once scene they were in a sort of opion den and there was this guy (druged up of course) singing the song that the shopkeeper couldnt remember in 1984 I found this kinda super cool! it went ...
Oranges and lemons
say the bells of st clement's
when will ye pay me?
Ring the bells at Old ailey
When I grow rich
Say the bells of Shoreditch --
when will that be?
say the bells of Stepney
I do now konw,
Says the great bell of Bow

I just thought that made a conection to 1984 and made me feel slightley less guilty for reading it all day instead of doing the masses of homework I should of done! :P

portfolio

Soooo, what are we supposed to put on our covers????

Abortion

Sooo I really loved the controversial issue debate that we had on friday. Now I have another reason to love fridays! Really though, it was interesting to see everyone's perspectives on the subject and I also thought it was cool having graduated students there (well the ones that talked anyway). So yeah, im excited to see how all of the rest of them will go :D

laptop trouble...

Julia boosts Winston's esteem

I totally forgot we were supposed to post this earlier...whooops!
Anyway, I had the esteem theme:

At the beginning of book two Winston's esteem needs are starting to be met.
On page 120 Winston says, "I'm 39 years old. I've got a wife that I can't get rid of. I've got varicose veins. I've got 5 false teeth."
"I couldn't care less," said the girl (Julia).
Julia doesn't care that Winston isn't perfect, she still loves him.
