Grimm's Little Red Ridding Hood





 This is the story of Little Red Riding Hood. There was a girl whose grandmother lives in the woods. Her grandmother falls ill. She sees a wolf on her way to her grandmothers. The wolf distracters little red with beautiful flowers and she picked them. The wolf going to the grandmothers house and eat her, later when Red goes to her grandmother, and he is lying in her bed clothes. Soon Red knows that the wolf is her grandmother he ate her. The wolf than goes to sleep snores so loud that I hunter comes by and cuts open the wolf’s stomach and get the grandmother and Red out. They put rocks in the wolf’s stomach and wolf dies.
Little Red is a favorite of mine. I mean yes she a fool for trusting the wolf. But I just love that she fights the wolf and kills him. This is other story that the main stream media had grabbed on to. They have however turn in my in a werewolf thing. Which is sad…don’t be surprised that my next post is about.

Discussion...

I love discussion in class I like her other peoples opinions. But it seems that there's this tension in the class that no one wishes to speak. I not a loud person, and I accept others personality and strengths. I just seem that there some kind of stress that keep everyone from talking. I'm a vision and verbal learner. I need the discussion to learn. I just don't understand what going on with this class that they need to stay quiet. I think it has something to do with the fact that everyone cuts down the peers answers. It makes you feel a little unsure on answering.

Grimm's Snow White

Snow White; comes from an old German fable. In the original vision of Snow White; there is a queen beautiful and fair to her people. She is gifted with a daughter. She names her daughter snow white, for her skin white as the fallen snow. Soon after the snow is born the queen dies leaving her daughter in the hand a successor a wicked queen. This woman has a mirror that praises her beauty. As Snow grows the mirror clams this queen is not longer the fairest of the all. Angered by this development the wicked queen orders a huntsman to take snow out to the woods and kill her, he must bring her back Snow’s liver and lungs. The wicked queen ate the liver and lungs of a pig that she believed were Snow’s. Deep in the mountain Snow found herself in the company of seven dwarfs (Humors fact in the original vision Snow white pulled a Goldie Locks.) These men took her in, she cook and cleaned for the men. Soon the wicked queen found out that the huntsman did not kill Snow. She takes the matter into her hands. She tries to kill snow by suffocation, a poison comb, and than poison apple. Failing every time, and Snow marries a handsome prince. And the wicked queen was force to dance at their wedding in till she died.
Snow White, is one of the most common fable is society today there are stories base on it as well as movies and TV series. I my mind Snow White is a tale that the pure of heart will always win over the wicked. The queen had to try four times before she was even close to success. Snow had friends that loved her enough to save her over and over again. It makes me think of you catch more files with honey than vinegar.

Thought and Writing Class otherwise known as English 1040


 I find this class interesting. I love set up of the class it feels like a free environment. As a student you can speak your mind and actually provide to the conversation, its nice being talks with instead of being talk to. I also love the blog angel it give each student a chance to let the voice come through in there writing and the class blog is easy to get the homework. I think that amazing being able to just go to the blog and click on a link and just read the assignment. It differly beats going through facebook and trying to find someone who knows what the assignment is.

Grimm's Twelve Dancing Princess


Two blogs a week this should be interesting… The first shall be on class and this the second shall be on fairy tales or riddles or whatever I feel.

This Blog will be on the brothers Grimm tale of the twelve dance princess.
I a kingdom there is twelve princesses born to a king and an infertile mother.
During the tale a soldier wounded in war joke with a bagger woman, who tells him how to find where the princess dance at night.  The soldier follows the princess using the invisible cloak the woman gave him. The princess traveled down into the Earth and to magical place. The soldier took tokens of this and bought them to the King and then him receive the eldest daughter as his bride.
The Princesses going
down into
the underground kingdom. 

The twelve dancing princesses is a favorite tale of mine. I read many books, poems, and riddles on the subject. Some factors stay true it seems. The princes trap the princesses in to marriage. The Soldier is the one who help the princesses escape the under land and marries the eldest daughter.
This is one of the
few books I've read
on the Twelve dancing princess. 

Looking at this storey from a girl (that grew up on Disney movies) point of view; It seems like the eldest princess is trap by the pressures of life. She must take care of her sisters after her mother’s death. Trap by the rules of sociality and the promise of her mothers. Have men throw themselves at her not herself but for the chance to be King. Then a soldier who was little chance of helping or marring any of the princesses shows up, he like the underdog no one thinks about. He tricks the princess and saves them from an eternally dancing with men who wish nothing but to trap the girls down in the underground prison.
