Gothic Literature Components

•May 15, 2007 • Leave a Comment

Gothic literature consists of a secluded setting, a character with either mental or physical disfigurations, and a supernatural occurance.  It is also highly anti-Catholic.  Gothic stories are horror stories.  Sometimes they involve exorcisms, ghosts, cemeteries, nightmares, imprisionment, claustrophobia, the devil, and curses.

My Intentions for my Short Story

•May 15, 2007 • Leave a Comment

My intentions for Aden were simple.  He was what seemed to be a nice man that ended up being just sick.  And Eva was just a stupid girl who really didn’t want or deserve any trouble.  The plot was supposed to make you think everything was going to be fine until the end where most of the intensity of the story takes place.  The setting is typical.  There is an awful storm, so bad that the clouds are almost green.  I tried to keep the dialogue to a minimum because it was more important to me to make sure people knew what happened, not who said what.  The dialect is similar to something Edgar Allan Poe would write.

About Me!

•April 18, 2007 • Leave a Comment

Hey!  I’m Emily Mizerowski.  I’m 17 years old and I’m a junior at Northview High School.  I love being girly, but I hate to shop.  I love my friends and my boyfriend.  They are the reason I get up in the morning.  I’m bubbly (hyper) and outgoing (loud) but I can be really quiet if I’m uncomfortable.  I love running around and doing fun stuff with my friends.  I love my dog, Jack.  He’s little and hyper just like me!  I don’t want to think too much about my future but I believe that if I can dream it, I can do it.  And if I have a positive attitude I will be able to achieve anything.  I want to have a normal life, but be a superstar, too.  And I want to be a nurse.  I started modeling not too long ago but I don’t want to accomplish anything more than making money for college with that.  Anyways, theres not much to say about me!  People usually tell me that I look normal until I open my mouth and prove them otherwise.  They’re probably right about that…

ME! Prom ‘07
