I may be awesome at papers...

...but I am not awesome at philosophy. I can not concentrate on reading these books. I pretty much want to die. DIE!!!! Why did I choose to write about a topic about which I know nothing?!

I am awesome at papers

Even though I hand them in a month late.

My conclusion of my paper for "Camille" (I have just described that the author, Pam Gems, wanted an ending in which Marguerite doesn't die, but the producers wouldn't let her use it):


"Perhaps we shouldn’t mourn the fact that Gems didn’t get her ending. “La Dame aux Camélias” is, after all, a story of compromise: it is the story Dumas fils, who had to watch his lover sleep with other men; of Armand Duval, who nearly gave up his fortune and his lot in life for a dying woman; of Marguerite Gautier, who denied herself love for the sake of her son; and of Marie Duplessis, a prisoner not only of her health, but of a myth that has shadowed who she really was. And though Marguerite has yet to live through a performance, audiences continue to make sure that her story will never die."

Oooh yeeeahhh...
