Dennis' thoughts of ACT II :D

     In act two there was more tension within Nora’s house. Nora is very paranoid about Krogstad because he knows Nora’s little secret. He was blackmailing Nora with a letter about her secret he has because he wanted Nora to tell Torvald for a position in the bank. She also thought about leaving her children. Nora asks Torvald to give Krogstad the position (or a job) in the bank but Torvald denies it and feels insulted how Nora protects Krogstad.
     Next Dr. Rank comes to the house and confesses his love for Nora but she tries to act like its not a big deal. Dr. Rank also starts to flirt with Nora. She also shows Dr. Rank her silk stockings and in their time that was very “sexy”. Dr. Rank was confessing his love to Nora because he was sick and about to die. This “love Triangle” thing was getting a little too awkward in the story as we were reading it.
     Later on in the story… Krogstad put the letter containing Nora’s secret in Torvald’s mailbox which was locked. Nora was very paranoid about this and was panicking. There was a lot of suspense going on in Nora’s life at that moment. Now she has to distract Torvald from opening his mailbox and reading he secret she kept away from him. Right now Nora's situation is full of suspense.

My AWESOME ACT I assignment!! :D

On Thursday we recently finished reading Act I to A Doll’s House and so far I liked the book. The main character, Nora, is very childish, conceited, immature and so full of herself. There are many weird emotions in her attitude towards other people. But one awkward thing that I’ve been thinking about is that when no one is around, she is actually smart and useful. That’s how she save Trovald (Nora’s husband) when he was sick and about to die. She also kept this a secret and only told it to her childhood best friend Ms. Linde. My question now is ‘Why in the world does Nora act smart behind people’s backs?’

On the other hand, her husband, Trovald, treats Nora like a baby and calls her many weird names like a songbird. WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSE TO MEAN? She is not a child anymore, she has three children. On top of that he is very rude to her at times. He also doesn’t like being in debt and hates to barrow money but Nora does it anyways. Trovald makes Nora feeling very very dumb in my point of view. This leads to my next question ‘Is Nora going to get tired of Trovald treating her like this and spas out on him about this?’

Towards the end of the chapter we meet Dr. Rank. Sure he is a close friend but why in the world is Nora flirting with him? Do they or did they have an affair? This seems very suspicious. Can’t wait to see what happens next between Nora, Dr. Rank and Trovald. J

First Assignment! :D

            Hello peeps! My name is Dennis A., I am a student in Bloomfield High and I’m a calm and cool kid. I won’t usually be in blogger but for this time I have to due to an English assignment. Anyways, this year in English Class, it was very fun and entertaining. All the work I’ve received from Miss. Santos and Pettigrew was very challenging for me. Also, they did not give as much homework as other English teachers gave me. This year was one of the best English classes EVER!! J

            Other then my English class, a book we are about to read is A Doll’s House. This book was written by Henrik Ibsen was born n March 10, 1829 in Skien, Norway in a rich family. In 1843, Ibsen became a pharmacist assistant. In 1851 he became a stage manager at the Norwegian Theater in bargain. In that time of his life he also wrote three plays (Lady Inger (1855), The Feats at Solhoug (1856), and Olaf Liljekrans (1857) These plays were very popular when they came out. After he wrote these plays, one year later he got married with Suzannah in 1858. By 1879, he moved his work from theater to paper and came out with his first book called A Doll’s House(1879). He also wrote An Enemy of the People (1882), The Wild Duck (1884), Hedda Gabler (1890) and The Master Builder (1892). Ibsen had to retire his writing career later on and died of a stroke on May 23 1906.
