AP English Literature - Help?

<p>I email my teacher all the time. Too frequently, actually. She's kinda like our friend, but in a good, not creepy, way.</p>

<p>my orchestra teacher calls me by my sn nowadays.
it's pretty cool.</p>

<p>Of course 823freckles, of course...:) j/k that's awesome. Teachers like that are awesome. </p>

<p>(Mine on the other hand...for the first sonnet she interpreted it as the speaker telling his mistress that they could still be together if only she would put out...yeah...like John Donne's The Flea, only much more subtle...anyone else read that?)</p>

<p>The Flea...represents the unions of the speaker and the girl he's trying to have sex with.</p>

<p>John Donne is really horny.</p>

<p>ok, I kind of laughed at the cue-howl one. It was easy! You guys, it's a cue-owl. It's a kind of owl named for the sound it makes: "cue." </p>

<p>But then I thought the MC questions were fairly easy. The essays were ok, but I didn't like the country one.</p>

<p>John Donne's The Flea - that was kind of funny...</p>

<p>Very nice talking to you all about our scantron fantasies. Good luck on all your Aps...I'm fading to study for apush.</p>

<p>good luck willmington
imma go do my bio hw that was probably due sometime last week.
and read some convoluted french play and define some ridiculous list of vocab words.
good luck on all of your APs everyone!</p>

<p>OH John Donne, I love John Donne. My teacher makes his poems so meaningful and passionate-she treansfered her love of him to me. Batter my Heart Three Personed God? "Take me to you, imprison me, for I, Except you enthrall me, never shall be free, Nor ever chaste, except you ravish me" Oh lovely. And "A Fever" too. I realized it was used in my favorite book, The Silence of the Lambs, which pleases me immensely.</p>

<p>I thought MC questions aren't supposed to be discussed at all?</p>

<p>Anyways, I thought the MC questions killed me, especially with that poem alluding to that Renaissance painter.</p>

<p>i feel bad for the people who didn't use books that answered the open essay today :P</p>

<p>How could you not use books???</p>

<p>sorry, let me rephrase, "the books" that required to answer the prompt today :)</p>

<p>I didn't use the books listed. I used the book by Achebe...
pwned.</p>

<p>I don't even know...I used Earnest.</p>

<p>Waiting For Godot... a play, at that</p>

<p>You could use a play.</p>

<p>Bible, y'all! When all else fails, use the Bible. For it has EVERYTHING you need for literature, haha.</p>

<p>Yeah, but nobody in California is going to mandate the students read it. Maybe in the damn Bible Belt.</p>

<p>The thing is, there was a lot of confusion with that third prompt. Many of my friends didn't realize that it asked for a COUNTRY-SIDE setting, not country as in nation.</p>
