Waverley Blog Post #2

 

The love triangle between Edward, Flora & Rose reminds me of every love triangle I have read about in books or watched in movies & tv shows. Their trope is defined as the boy who is going after Flora who thinks he is in love with but he doesn't see the other girl Rose who is right next to him and is in love with Waverly. In a way, this reminds me of the love triangle in the 1986 John Hughes film Some Kind of Wonderful. This film is about a boy named Keith who is an outcast and not so popular, who goes out with his dream girl Amanda, who is the most popular girl in the school. He thinks he is in love with her and is destined to be with her. Keith's girl best friend Watts encourages him to go out with Amanda but little does he know that Watts is in love with him. Keith is Edward, Amanda is Flora, and Rose is Watts. At the end of the film, Keith realizes Amanda is not who he thought she was and wants to be with Watts instead so they get together and start a relationship. The same goes for Edward and Rose. Edward stops pining after Flora and realizes he wants to be with Rose. Edward asks for Rose's hand in marriage and they get married.

FSAT Trip: Ireland

  The last destination on our trip was Dublin Ireland, even though we were there for a day & a half it was still pretty cool. We went to St. Patrick's Cathedral which was cool to see. I didn't know they still do masses there I thought it was just only for museum showings. For the English FSAT class, I did my presentation on the Book of Kells. After learning about the Book of Kells. I wanted to check out the exhibit myself. We went to Trinity College in Dublin which is everywhere by the way, it is very spread out amongst the city. Seeing the Book of Kells was my favorite part of the Dublin trip it was the one thing I wanted to do in Dublin. While I was staring at the Book of Kells I kept thinking wow "it's here it's right in front of me the book I presented in class I'm staring at it with my own two eyes."  I'm going to be honest but Dublin Ireland was my least favorite of the trip. The reason why is it was our last trip destination and by that time

FSAT Trip: England

  The second part of our trip was to London, England. this was my most anticipated part and the part of the trip I was looking forward to the most. We took the train to London this time which was nice, we got to see fields of grass while on the train and experience beautiful views. The first location Sarah took us to was Trafalgar Square which is the main part/center of London. Afterward, we were able to split off & do things on our own. My friends & I went to a 100% vegan, plant-based restaurant called Mildred's. They were super friendly, the service was great, and the food was delicious. They had this vegan whipped feta that was out of this world.  The next day we got on the bus and drove to the important parts of London. We drove by Kensington Place. Went to one of the many Prince Albert memorials. The next place we went to was the infamous & iconic Buckingham Palace. Being there didn't feel real. We visited the Towers of London which was an old prison, unfortuna
