I Have Decided…
January 29th, 2009 by purcilly4
I have decided to read and write my project about All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Remarque. I spent 45 minutes on Sunday at Barnes and Noble looking for books, and I got a few good ideas. I then came home and searched “Classic Novels” or something of the sort and this was one of the novels on there. I had seven on a notecard, and Western Front and Harriet Beecher Stowe’s Uncle Tom’s Cabin kept coming back to me. With a little help from Mr. Kreinbring, I chose Western Front because of the length of Uncle Tom’s Cabin and my solid foundation in German. Hopefully this novel is shorter than my other options, and I can get through it quickly and thoroughly.

Getting Started
January 24th, 2009 by purcilly4
I set up the blog on Wednesday because I figured that would be the easiest part of the project. Then I delved into my search for the right novel. Something that would keep me interested, while also being a manageable length and difficulty to enable me to complete a quality project. My first thought was A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini, but Mr. Kreinbring suggested to someone else to find an older book with more criticisms, so I am back at square one. It is difficult to see everyone else knowing exactly what they want to do and still have no clue. I’m probably gonna take a trip to Barnes and Noble to try to find a book after baseball practice today. Maybe today will be better than my last few of confusion and indecision.
