Betty Marriage

I do not think that Betty was definitely not happy in her marriage. She just liked the idea of marriage and was not ready for reality. her reality was a toxic marriage. Her mom's reaction to her unhappiness showed that she did not care about her daughter and probably had an unhappy marriage herself. Except, she didnt leave, she stayed unhappy, and took it out on Betty.Imglad Betty decided for herself to get a divorce with the help of Ms. Watson

Womens' "roles" vs. Katherine Watson

People in the 1950s typically did not expect much from women. At that time, women were expected to definatelybe married, and education was not needed for a woman to be able to survive. Some did not even have aspirations passed being a being a house wife and only taking care of their children their whole lives. Katherine differed from this persona in the sense of her being independent. She was not fixated on society's standards for women at this time. She was a free-thinker.

Ms. Katherine tried to expand the girls' minds by not only teaching facts. In the excerpt from "Hard Times", the writer describes someone who does not think outside of the box. When it comes to are interpretation, this can be very hard. Katherine did not want them to only know facts, but wanted them to have their own views. She did not force them to think a certain way, but asked them to consider what she was saying. When the excerpt states that " nothing else will ever be of any service upon these children", I believe that Katherine would strongly disagree because of the progress that the girls made. By not sticking to facts and stern reasoning, she helped them understand things inside and outside of the classroom.

My favorite theme of the movie, was that a woman can be smart, a graduate, educated, and still be a housewife. Just because someone chose a role in the home did not mean that they gave up their lives. . When Joan explained that, I liked that. Domestic roles are not bad, and you can be more than one type of woman. She was smart, but had more than one dream.

I expect third movie to be very informative, especially for the girls. The era didn't expect much from women, and the teacher challenges them. I think it will show how far we have come as a society and how much some things have changed. It will also sow us historical things that we may not have known. Very inspiring for men and women alike.

College vs high school exams.

College has allot less overall exams than high school. Even though there are less, they are longer and cover more material. You have to always take notes or you probably won't pass. The teachers do not stay on you like they do in high school. This forces you to do what you have to do on your own. You have a lot more free time in college so time management is also important. Making time for school work , and time for fun is more important than in college because they can send you home if you fail stuff.

I am very interested to see what college will be like. In college, I hope to learn to be successful in my future career, and be successful in meeting new people and becoming more independent. I am going to college for my family, myself, and my future family. It is very important that I go to college. Environment and people matters most to me when it comes to choosing a college. I hear many things about hate crimes in many southern colleges, but at the same time, I hate the cold that go with Northern colleges. A campus that is not too large is also important. In a safe place where there is a lot to do would be best for me.I seek input from my friends who are currently in college, about the college experience. They know first hand what it is like and I trust their opinions. . College will help me by preparing me for life. But most of all, I want to have fun!
