Hutchinson, Jenifer

My name is Jennifer Hutchinson and I am a mother to three great boys ages 12, 16 and 18.  Originally from Illinois, I have lived in the Macon area for ten years and have grown accustomed to the Southern way of living- I have "drank the sweet tea," if you will. Georgia now feels like home to me and I have accepted the fact that a cart is a buggy, pop is soda, cornbread isn't sweet, macaroni and cheese is a vegetable and let's not forget, Go Dawgs!   When I'm not at school, I enjoy spending time with my family on the lake, thrifting, going out to eat and running.  My ultimate goal is to be a high school English teacher and I am very excited to achieve that goal in the next couple of years.

Post 25: Modern women compared to Nora

That happens in modern families also.

Post 27: Most important thing i've learned from this class

I would say the most important thing I have learned from this class is how literature is interpreted.  The story, " A Rose for Emily" tells of the once grandiose house that is now an eyesore.  I would have never looked at this house as a symbol of the Old South and how it had faded even down to the color of the house that is not as "pure white" as it once was.  To me, that symbolism is fascinating.
