diary entry

dear diary 


The baby's finally here, and i don't really know what feel right now, all that i know from my own two cents is that Stanley's changed, he really has and if i had the actual stones to admit it then i wouldn't be in this rut that i'm in now.and oh my sweet blanche, how will i tell her that the home isn't going to be enough for the three of house;knowing that i love stanley and all, i honestly cant choose between the two of them.I just cant, and i know how Blanche is ,she sure wont mind leaving for a while,stanley will almost certainly tell her to leave, oh what am i thinking my sweet sister Blanche wont leave my sight, she's all i got in this world , i don't even know what i was thinking when i left belle revere; such a stupid little girl i am ,leaving my one and only sister for this man...that i'm in love with.


i dont know whats going on with Blanche but i'm almost certain that she's not how she use to be ,and i can feel that feeling i get ,when things aren't going right i just know that stanley isn't right either ,oh what am i thinking, silly me ,and my mind .

scene between mitch ,steve and stanley

Its late at night, the lights on the streets grow dimmer and the sounds of the blue piano fade in and out as blanch climbs down the stairs to the three men , Stanley, Steve and Mitch all taking shots at the bar and laughing with animal like movements .

Blanche : Stanley! oh Stanley there you are, Stella wants you out on the front porch to talk, she says something about you needed to talk more about the baby.

Stanley moves about slowly, ruffling his hair with frustration and sweat from the intensely lighted room, packed with newcomers and travelers on a Friday night, Xavier night .

Mitch: your wife there, i heard her sisters  come to stay with y'all , a mighty fine woman she is, just talking with her last night, says she's a teacher too; i might just want to get to know her some more eh!

Stanley: now ,you lay of her, she's bad news , seems like a fine woman to you Mitch but i tell ya she aint got nothin less then a pack of lies to keep, she's a right seductress. and i bet she's got you all in her lunacy ,i'm tellin you, she's baaad news.

Mitch: why, this is quiet sudden, never really taken her for the....no no no no, i just wont believe it, she's such a nice women, well together and all, and i know that she aint what y'all makin her out to be , Stanley . go on home to your wife , you aint got no business tellin me what Blanche is.

Steve :come on up Stanley you know Blanche well enough to be callin her stuff like that?, go on home to your wife.

The blues music from Xavier slows into a final chorus and Stanley looks around at the two men as if they were blinded he grunts and curses under his breathe ,sweat pounds his face and he gets up grabbing the edge of a table so he doesn't loose grip.

Stella: Stanley! Stanley! come on down why don't you, its getting cold out here; stupid men  !

out at the corner, Blanche stands in toilet ,staring at the mirror,

Blanche: age really does catch up with my pretty little mind ,if i must be crazy, ahhh, time to bathe ,oh lovely bath to cleanse me of this men filled day...haha

streetcar named desire H/M

why does Blanche replace the bottle and wash the glass after having a drink?


blanch could be generally afraid of admitting to herself that she drinks way too much for her own good and so by replacing the bottle she is fooling herself and pretending as though she never drank. this could be a method of helping her cope with reality, by washing away the evidence of her destruction .


pick out the pet names for Stella and explain why she uses them
the pet names for stella are 'stella the star' , blanch uses this to tell us that she thinks of her sister as still a young child, or maybe that she feels protective over her sister and wants to keep her in the state of 'happiness' of when they were once children and names like that were appropriate for her age .


what evidence is there that Blanche is concerned about her looks?what does this say about her character?
when blanche came over to Stella apartment in New Orleans, she kept asking how she looked ,this told me that she worries about her appearance often and isn't comfortable with it .


what is blanches reaction to were Stella lives?
Blanche, at first couldn't believe that what she was seeing was Stella's apartment, she also kept asking if this really could be her home .
