First of all i will be honest and say i read this short story four years ago. I couldn't call her a victim because people get dumped all the time and are able to move on. if her fiance had been cheating on her or beat her then she could be a victim. As for a champion she was able to keep her love until she died but i'm sure it most of been really lonely.

He used to be a she and she was a nice, intelligent, sweet person.  She went away and "someone" stole her name and avatar.  A mystery.

Nah.  Hasn't she fallen in love with guys once or twice?  I can't quite remember, so I migth be wrong.\n\nShe does have a strong feminist vibe, though- a very independent woman.  I always imagined (and maybe there was an episode about it?) her and Millhouse getting together- her a successful career woman or politician, him her nerdy, quiet, slightly emasculated hubby.\n\nBut I can see how you'd think so!  And who knows, she always could be!

At the edge of adolescence, Tracy is a smart straight-A student--if not a little naive (it seems...she smokes and she cuts to alleviate the emotional pain she suffers from having a broken home and hating her mom's boyfriend, Brady.) When she befriends Evie, the most popular and beautiful girl in school, Evie leads Tracy down a path of sex, drugs and petty crime (like stealing money from purses and from stores). As Tracy transforms herself and her identity, her world becomes a boiling, emotional cauldron fueled by new tensions between her and her mother--as well as, teachers and old friends.

Well, we had an assignment that is like this one about the Scarlet Letter, there are a couple of themes in the story, Individual vs. Society, Nature vs. Society, and I think the other is individual vs. Self. According to my notes the Scarlet letter's themes are sin, knowledge, and the human condition. But anyways in the individual vs. society section there are three examples one is Society against Hester. (they dont like hester for sinning) the other is Society agains Pearl (people think that since Pearl is a sin born daughter she will also be a sinner) and lastly is Dimmsdale(Society thinks that he is a saint). Oh yeah another one could be society against Chillingworth (people think that he is bad and resembles the devil). FOr the nature vs. Society section you can say that there is a BIG difference between both since Dimmsdale acts one way with Pearl and Hester in the forest but another in the village.

Not 100% sure but I think maybe it was Persephone.

the seer because she seemed to be out for herself... always trying to make herself become more like when she tried to carry the source of all evil after she took it from phoebe... but the crone almost took baby wyatt... so that was a twist but the seer wins two thumbs up ... instead of the crone

Thesis:  There's a strong correlation between the writtings of Author Emily Dickson and her struggles challenges and triumphs throughout her own life.  This can be seen when comparing certain event throughout her her with the time period that she was writting about specific subjects in her book.

Lauren/"LC". She just seems like a genuine, nice person. Kristin is a b**ch! She needs to get over herself.

I think one of the themes of the book might be that life is very unpredictable. Like Jenna, she didn't know that she was gonna be Mrs. Gladstone's driver/assistant for the summer and she didn't know that she'll meet sooo many people and everything. So i think that the theme might be "Life is unpredictable" or "Life can take you anywhere".\nAnother theme might be what's hard makes you stronger.

I've never been able to decide.  I think it was very clever of them to leave it up to us to guess.  Most of the time, I think it was the guy.  I think the Clair Danes character (sorry.. been awhile ... can't remember names) volunteered to do the time because she was stronger and because she had so often been the ringleader before.

The book tells the story of Mary Lennox, a spoiled, contrary orphan, who is sent to live in her uncle's manor in Yorkshire. She is left to herself by her uncle, Mr. Craven, who travels trying to escape from being haunted by the death of his wife, and the only one who has any time for her is the chambermaid Martha. It is Martha who tells Mary about the walled garden, Mrs. Craven's favourite garden, which nobody has seen the inside of since she died; Mr. Craven locked it and buried the key.Exploring the grounds, Mary discovers the key to the secret garden, which has been turned up by a dog digging for moles, then the door. When she is inside the garden, she discovers that although the roses seem lifeless some of the other flowers have survived; she decides to work on the garden herself, but to keep it a secret, in case her uncle should find out and fit another lock for it. Through Martha, she recruits the assistance of Martha's brother Dickon, who is known for being good with plants and wild animals. Dickon begins by providing gardening implements, bought with money Mary gives him, and demonstrating that the roses, though neglected, are not dead. When Mary's uncle visits the house briefly (for the first time since she arrived), Mary asks him if she may have a bit of earth to make a flower garden in, and he agrees.

think about death, hon. the unspoken. those who give their lives. we're so quick to celebrate heroes of war but the fact is there are people hurting, not just those who die but those who are left to mourn them. it's much more difficult to face a broken heart than all the enemies in the world.\n\nif you're focusing on secrets, maybe you could tie that to the grief and pain and suffering that we're not allowed to talk about.\n\nremember, emily dickison spent most of her life depressed and obsessed with misery and death. she actually found happiness in realizing that we're all going to die. it's reality.
