I enjoyed participating in this workshop it was a good break from working on our computers, and it was also a good way for our class to bond. I learned that the title of the the story makes sense because a shrew means a wild animal that is hard to tame. Before I learned anything about this story I thought a Shrew was a type of mushroom so now everything makes way more sense. I learned that the story is about two sisters and one is really nice and one is mean. The father won’t let t
he youngest daughter get married until the older daughter gets married. There are lots of men who want to marry the youngest daughter and not many who are willing to marry the oldest daughter because she is hard to tame. When the oldest daughter gets married her husband locks her up and doesn’t feed her because he is trying to tame her.

Poetry Analysis
One Life By Hedley (Song)
Here is my analysis on my song of choice
Oh, one life
Oh one life
Oh one life
One chance, two lips free fallin’ we’re about to lose our grip now
Five minutes too late, can’t be messing with fate it’s time to get loud
‘Cause we’ve been up when we should have been sleeping
We’ve been down when we could have been high
We’ll come alive, tonight
Oh it’s a great big world and you’ll see
It could pass you by at light speed
You’ve got one life, one life
Don’t stop live it up, no
If it’s the last night in these streets
You’d be a fool to take a seat
You’ve got one life, one life
Don’t stop live it up
Oh, one life
Oh, one life
Oh, one life
Don’t stop, don’t stop live it up
Don’t stop, don’t stop live it up
The last thing you wanna make’s your first mistake but it’s too late now
So get up, get ready not everybody’s betting against you anyhow
‘Cause we’ve been up when we should have been sleeping
We’ve been down when we could have been high
We’ll come alive, tonight
Oh it’s a great big world and you’ll see
It could pass you by at light speed
You’ve got one life, one life
Don’t stop live it up, no
If it’s the last night in these streets
You’d be a fool to take a seat
You’ve got one life, one life
Don’t stop live it up
Oh, one life
Oh, one life
Oh, one life
Don’t stop, don’t stop live it up
If you stop and think
You might start to sink
You can’t get it if you don’t keep givin’
Can’t get it if you don’t keep givin’
Oh it’s a great big world and you’ll see
It could pass you by at light speed
You’ve got one life, one life
Don’t stop live it up, no
If it’s the last night in these streets
You’d be a fool to take a seat
You’ve got one life, one life
Don’t stop live it up
Oh, one life
Oh, one life
Oh, one life
Don’t stop, don’t stop live it up
Don’t stop, don’t stop live it up
Don’t stop, don’t stop live it up
