Act 1(16th March, 2014)

Act 1
16th March,2014

   Finally we have to do act 1 now. I think squandering is Nora's favorite thing to do, because she only think of buying things and spending money. She also like to say that she is the most ravishing woman in the world. Helmer also known as Trovald is her husband think he is superior and has control over Nora, he think Nora is childish and spoiled and he is above her for everything by calling her names; " Is that my little skylark twittering out there? Scampering like a squirrel, scatterbrain, little song bird, featherbrain, prodigal and little sweet little bird. There is one of the other names he calls her. Helmer is the breadwinner of the house.
    When Helmer was having the worst days of his life, Nora is the one who did everything to help him. Krogstad save her the money as a loan so she can take her Trovald to Italy. Helmer thinks that Nora get the money from her father but Nora forged her father's signature and give it to Krogstad on the contract he made. In the beginning of the year Trovald was to get promotion and then Mrs. Linde needed help so she came to town. So Nora ask Trovald to give Mrs. Linde the job he had at the bank before. Helmer was also going to fired Krogstad because Krogstad had forged someone's signature. Then Krogstad came to Nora and blackmailed her about the loan and the forged signature and keep talking about Helmer. Nora get really anger and said," If you speak disrespectfully of my husband I shall show you the door." When Helmer came home and ask if any one came Nora said no; but Helmer then said that he saw Krogstad  came out of the house and start talking how Nora should stay away from people like Krogstad because he had committed a crime and he is poisoning and corrupt his children. Same thing that Krogstad did, Nora also did, now she don't want her children to come next to her for anything, when they want to come next to her she say, "NO! NO !  don't let them come near me ! keep them to you ,NANNY, "corrupt my little ones, poison my home? That's not true, it could never, never be true.
     I can relate Nora to myself because I can't save money. If I have cash with me I will use it all having none left. IF YOU HAVE TO STAY WITH SOME ONE LIKE HELMER WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
