Literary varia

Sorry for the lateness again people, but yesterday was KINDA hectic (mostly because I was camping out for the big game against GEORGETOWN today!)

varia \VAIR-ee-uh\, noun:
miscellaneous items, especially a miscellany of literary works.

I was actually able to slip this word into an essay that I wrote for my American LIterature to 1865 class.  I was writing about two Puritan women in colonial Massachusetts, and I was comparing and contrasting their written works.

It went like this: " Hardship is what gave their varia the gusto it needed to transcend the test of time, and give Puritan struggles meaning."

BOOM.  Like a boss.  Now off to BEAT GEORGETOWN!!!!!!!!! :D
