Today we started with analyzing a piece of art by Lois Jones, from our art lecture yesterday. Her "The Ascent of Ethiopia" is below:
Then we responded to a quote from JD Salinger's Franny and Zooey: "I’m sick of not having the courage to be an absolute nobody. I’m sick of myself and everybody that wants to make a splash.” - Franny
We journaled on:
Is it courageous to be a nobody?
What drives our desire to be popular, successful, have lots of friends?
Is making a “splash” the best we can do with our lives?
Then we studied for our vocabulary quiz, which will be tomorrow. Finally, we worked on our rough drafts, which are due tomorrow.
