The song Carmen reminds me of the story Innocent Erendira. Actually Lana Del Rey entire album entitled Born to Die was fascinating to listen to with all of the books we've read. Several of her songs contributed to the overall affect a particular work had on me. Her tragic love songs really captured the end of Rhinoceros and Baron in the Trees. Her song Without You reminds me of Cosimo and Viola.I highly recommend listening to this album while reading these books or any book  of your choice:)

I read  "Why Don't you Dance?" because I was in the mood to laugh. At first I thought the man was kicked out by his wife therefore relocating himself and his stuff to the front yard.Then I wondered if it really was a yard sale or his actual living arrangements.Anyways despite my minor confusions I thought the story was cute,weird, and surprising.

I took this pic last week at Stars.It was closing night of Evita and the cast hung out in the lounge after the show.This pic reminds me of the scene in Innocent Erendira where her grandmother dolls her up to attract customers.

Rhinoceros

Rhino-I usually am a rhino. I tend to not speak up and be a leader. However, I will  step up if I have to.Currently, there is a huge conflict going on in my life and instead of doing the "right" thing I am watching the incident  unfold and sticking with the majority.


Berenger- A year ago when I was a senior at North High I expressed Berenger-esque qualities. For our spring play our teacher wanted to do a show that noone wanted to do.So I spoke up for the class by speaking to him respectfully and eventually by having them sign a petition ( for proof I wasn't alone) and writing a letter to our teacher.
