yeah it's been a while and it's another six months until i have maths again bleheughuehrugh

i don't even have school?

i analysed them for english as related texts. like, for one module it was the global village and we had to talk about how exposure to media impacts the lives of the citizens of the global village (aka the shrinking of the globe due to advances in communications) and we had to study this play about five kids who, from the ages of 7 to 21 have their lives documented in a documentary which airs every year on NYE and I talked about how in the Help, rather than ruining their lives, the global village allowed black maids to express an unheard opinion in a world where they were punished for speaking out

and then for distinctively visual we had to study how visual techniques can have an impact on the reader and i used a small free kiss in the dark bc the main character has some form of add i think and he's obsessed with art and he likes to see the world through light and colour so there was some beautiful imagery like when he called a crazy man "a shattered stained glass window; something beautiful that's broken. A thousand colours scattered across the ground where no light can get through." and I thought that was hella dope man.
