At home she quickly learned that the life she saw around her was not the type of life she wanted. Her older sister Barbara, who was five years her senior, was married to a railroad brakemen. They had set up a home and where poised to live a life much as their mother had. Louise upon seeing this realized that she did not want a life like that, but she was still unclear what she wanted. It was at this time that she first began to write.
In 1903 Louise transferred from Wadsworth High School to University High School which was specially for students planning on transferring to the University of Nevada. In 1905 she officially enrolled in the University of Nevada and quickly became active in the school's extracurricular activities, as well as the social scene. She was a staff member at the school newspaper Student Record, although her contributions to the paper were mainly drawings and little in the way of writing. Louise was also the secretary of the schools debate club, played on the girls basketball team and was a member of the schools yearbook. One piece she wrote for the schools literary magazine Chuckawalla, was an article called, "The Way of the Flirt," in which she argued that flirting is harder then it looks and flirts are not given enough credit for their flirting. At school she had acquired a reputation as a flirt. Because of her flushed cheeks it was suspected on campus that she used rouge, which added to her reputation. Though she was flirt a friend later said that she made it clear that she was in no hurry to settle down.
In the fall of 1906 she registered at the University of Oregon. Her only motive for choosing that school was that her sister with her husband had moved there, and Louise while visiting her had decided that it would be a chance to escape Nevada. At this point it doesn't appear she had any real sense of direction for her life, her only goal was to get away from a mediocre life that she saw around her.

Now I would like to concentrate upon the author and his context (as far as I am concerned, and although I do love Deconstructionism, I daresay this poem cannot be commented without taking into account the personal features of its author and his own circumstances, since the poem, beginning from its title, is in consonance with several facts that conditioned the life of Bryant). ...
