AP is in about a month! This reality hit me as we started designing t-shirts on Friday (cardinal red!). I feel more prepared for this exam than any other, but a few more practice APs would not go amiss. We just finished Ceremony (Emily Laub has been telling me all year that it is her favorite book, and now I finally understand why). I loved learning about  another culture's symbolism and archetypes, though it makes Euro-American literature seem a lot easier to understand in comparison. I admit, I would probably never ever read American Dream in my free time, but maybe Ceremony.
I am really enjoying 5th Business. Especially since I thought it would be about a business man and I've had enough Willy Loman for one year. Maybe its just the knowledge that I don't have to annotate this one, or the peculiar voice of the main character, but I can't stop reading it! I'm afraid we won't have all the time I want to discuss it, because this is a book that I plan to keep on my shelf. Good choice Holmes!
So, thats about it....I am exhausted, so I'd like to take a moment to thank Holmes for giving us silent reading time in class several times in the past couple weeks. I really appreciate that :) Its going to be a rough month, but I feel ready. Bring it on!
