Jane Eyre

Time flies too fast I could barely grasp a sip of fresh air. I owe times a lot of times? Technically because I wasted it all being a sluggish fat ass. I almost have no time in continuing Jane Eyre. 

I am usually hooked up with classic works the way Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility did to me. I read these masterpiece of Jane Austen only in a week. But Jane Eyre is different. I could hardly say I am hooked up by the way Charlotte Bronte tells the story. It's just too slow for me. But the language is somehow idyllic. Still, I could not abandon it. I am curious enough to see what would happen to Jane living in Thornfield with the love she carries for her master, Mr. Rochester. And since it is classic, so I could say the story shares similar things with previous works I mentioned above, which basically tells about the love between different classes. Mr. Rochester is a nobleman, while Jane is the governess for Adele Varens, the child from one of his mistress, Celine Varens who abandons Adele as soon as she was born. Although Rochester believes Adele is not his child, he still considers her as one. Then Jane is the teacher for her, basically teaches her some basic English, because Adele is a French.

It is not an unrequited love story. 

I have encountered some lines of Rochester which show his likeness towards Jane from the beginning. And it is a good thing to know, that as a governess and being an orphan, Rochester is the only reason for her to stay alive. And there is another thing which is scary and frightening from this classic work. The mysterious or dark side of Jane Eyre is when there is hidden secret in Thronfield, which makes me eagerly want to find out more and finish it. Please, time, could you stop ticking? At least make it so when I plan finishing all of ebooks I have in my kindle book. -__-



I think classic is classy, right? I used to gaze at my dad's book collection about biography of a lot of artist like Van Gogh. And I become familiar with the characters of chubby-sad-looking women as the objects of the paintings. And what I consider as excitement is those figures! I would like to be able to paint one like the way Jane Eyre is portrayed in here. So, once I finished this book, I would paint her using the description I, myself found in the book, which from a lot of versions of her, the girl above is representing Jane to the fullest! I'm so excited!

My Star by Robert Browning  Poem Analysis Today, I'd like to present my poem analysis; My Star by Robert Browning . This poem analysis would be divided into three parts, namely: introduction which will tell a brief background life of the poet, then to the content where there will be summary and intrinsic elements of this poem, and then move to the conclusion as the finish line. But more importantly, you need to know why I choose this poem, which belongs to Men and Women (1885)  poems collections of Browning. It is because this dainty love lyric is just beautiful and simple, in words-chosen and easy to understand too. More importantly, this poem shows us how the beauty of a person is different depending on its beholder. Yet, we should respect the differences.

Since it is holiday already, so I have more time to gather the data and publish this article, which is entitled Gender Stereotypes and Performativity in Frozen movie . I analyzed this movie in order to complete the assignment given in Children literature class. But it turned out interesting! I focused only one theory; performativity from Judith Butler. Check out the analysis from my paper! The writer analyzes Frozen movie by focusing only one theory; performativity from Judith Butler. In order to not broaden it into some theories that may be found in the plot, the writer thinks the misconstrued-performances of the main characters, Anna and Elsa are easily seen and become vast majority start from the beginning until the very end of the movie. But it doesn’t mean other theories are forgotten. Something that the writer immediately thought about when finishing the movie was that Frozen is perhaps the queerest animated film ever produced by Disney–queer as being a theoretical practic
