First Post!

Well this is my first blog. I am not quite sure what to write about but basically, I'm seventeen years old and I love music and books can be really interesting. I usually spend most of my time with my friends and just all together being out of the house. What I can say that I've liked the most about our English class is that it is not normal. It's all over the place but that makes it interesting and it gets the overall job done of being a sophomore English class.

Hendrik Ibsen was born in Skien, Norway on March 20, 1828. He was the second of six children and is also known as the father of modern prose drama. Hendrik lived a poor life from the age of eight because his father went bankrupt. Ibsen was married in 1858 and believed that he and his wife should live as freely equal human beings. It is said that you can see this concept in his play A Doll's House.

  1. Our English class is all over the place? I know your talking about the students and not Ms. P and I.

    How about elaborating on the play itself and how it can relate to Ibsen and what he experienced throughout his life.
