Curiostiy in The Little Convent Girl

When using expressions such as "Curiosity kills a cat" it is not usually literal meaning. However, this is the theme of Grace King's short story "The Little Convent Girl". As she was unable to live in a monastery, a girl in a small abbey would like to see her mother and see the outside world. However, she is accustomed to her lifestyle, so it is difficult for her to accept American society and adapt. Information that revealed the curiosity of a small monastery girl (not just her mother) and that she can not adapt to her curiosion eventually led to her suicide.

The nuns that grew up in the Philippines and were studying at All-Girls Abbey School did not fully encourage young girls to be strong, confident, harsh or robust under the blessing of God. Marriage is our call to follow our virtue. However, the nuns took us to the front in the midst of the People's Power Revolution and killed the dictators. Only the Bible, the Rosary and the faith will hold our hands and pray with kneeling. The moment we realized we were standing in front of the tank, I noticed the ability to change my destiny. Please let me taste the power to change the world for the first time in order to overthrow the dictator even by peace and prayer.

The girl 's mother opened the door of the entrance door and waved his hand to a firefighter. When she handed the duffel bags, asking where they needed to go, the little girl could not hear the flood because the outside was full. The flooded street rushes forward and its skin is a mirror. Water also reflects the color of fire engines, street lights, even the sounds of cars - it can also reflect the sound, which smells and the earth and sewers are gathered in the nostrils of girls. She imagined that she crushed Ginkgo biloba and jumped out of the raging flood under her feet. Because it is always various flavors, the world is boiled and tasteless. When water pulls the branch to its center, as if I am awake, she sinks the fist as if she dominates the weather as if I could destroy all the houses near me

The girl observed quietly the curved road on Lee's shoulder. However, when Mr. Li riots the girl, it was very difficult. The girl did not know the reason why Lee was crying, but she also began to cry. She thought about barefoot and wearing her friends' shoes on the toes. She thought that the shrimp bag should be opened now; Mrs. Lee is suffocating her. Most importantly, the little girl thought about the brown water spouting out of her toilet. In her mind, she can still hear it in the rain. Therefore, she was crying, laughing, frowning and thinking whether her tears are brown or not, she just has to dump with a glass of water. She made Mr Lee cry; maybe they could fill the road behind her with water.
