Ethan Frome blog draft

I think that Ethan is just confused. He is very torn between Mattie and Zeena. Mattie seems to be full of life and warm-hearted in all his dealings with her. She is a refreshing taste of life whereas Zeena is a cold person towards Ethan. Ethan just wants to be happy and his life with Zeena is anything but happy. When Mattie comes there is a change in him. He wants to be with her and not his wife. He is a like everyone else in this world. He is human and humans just want to live and feel happy and loved. If wanting to find love when his wife doesn’t show it makes him a bad man, then I think that there are many bad men in this world.

I think that ever since Ethan has been married to Zeena and even known her she has been a convenience. He met her in the winter and the seasons have never changed. Zeena shows no feelings towards Ethan. He even says that she is a miserable person whose only happiness in life is to make his life miserable. The winter impacts Ethans life because he can find more warmth outside in winter than he has ever found in that house. Although Zeena is Ethan’s wife and we see that even at times of greatest determination Ethan might want to leave her, he never will.

When Ethan needed help taking care of his family, Zeena was sent there and when he needed a wife she was there. There was no love between him and he never felt love from another person until Mattie Silver. He found her to be the antithesis of Zeena. He had thought he had found love.

Shopping!!!!!!

The mall is a great place to find cute, new clothing. There are many stores and my favorite mall is the Niagra falls outlet malls because they have many different malls than the malls around here and they also have more clothes than all the stores around here. The malls around here are, the Galleria, the Mckinely, and the Eastern Hills. My favorite stores are Guess, forever 21, Delias, and Hollister.
What is your favorite mall and what stores do you shop at?

Google is also in many different languages. The German google is Google.de and will take you to German websites. There is also a Google for dylexics. That website is; elgoog.com.

Goldfish

"The snack that smiles back, Goldfish" You might recognize that jingle from the television commercials that played a couple of years ago. Goldfish are cheese flavored crackers and they are so delicious. There are many delicious snacks like cookies, like oreos, chocolate chip, then there is candy bars like snickers and three musketeers, and also potato chips. Cheddar and sour cream are the best flavors of Lays brand chips. Whats your favorite flavor?

Tee Vee


Television is the source of all evil. Even though it has many great shows and it is in a way, a part of our culture, children suffer because of it. Television restricts kids minds. It has been shown that children watch hours and hours of television each night. This makes kids less apt to do homework or even get the recommended 8 hours of sleep each night they need to function. They should be studying instead for tests. Tests are very hard, and unfortunately inevitable. What we need to remember is to study, and relax because it is just a test. If you do bad there are always ways to make it better. Tests will always be with you in life and you should learn how to handle them now. Study, eat a big breakfast, and don't worry and you will always do great. T.v. should not be involved in that equation. Also, kids who watch t.v. rather than play sports, or participate in school activities, usually gain weight. So what would you rather be? A stimulated student with many activities, or a lazy couch potato who is overweight? That is your choice.
