Today is September 6, 2009. Two days ago we had our review for our first drafts in English Composition I. I took my draft to the learning center and had it reviewed a third time. I'm starting to re-write my second draft into my final draft for Wednesday. Two people from class revised my paper and a third from the learning center. Here is Review for Sister Flowers article we read:

1)Sister Flowers- Sister Bertha Flowers is a character described by Maya Angelou or otherwise known as Marguerite who is easily embarassed by her unformal English speaking mother, Mrs. Henderson. Marguerite looks up to Sister Flowers the aristocrat of Black Stamps. Marguerite never actually has first connected Sister flowers to the sweet smell of food until she invites her into her home and acquaints herself with her more. Marguerite is practically a poor slave girl when she first meets Sister Flowers except she has her freedom but a low self esteem after moping around for months after being raped. Sister Flowers was the first to throw her a life line and make things better for Marguerite. The book quotes, "For nearly a year[after I was raped] I sopped around the house, the store the school and the church, like an old biscuit, dirty and inedible."
