First off, HAPPY FATHERS DAY!

My dad visited me on campus and brought me coffee since in the morning we had "Open Studio" time so he saw me print pressing some projects for myself I wanted to do, along with Avery for a bit. After he left, I had ballet rehearsal with Piper and her mom which went alright for the most part. Next was t-shirt making and interdisciplinary open studio, so Piper and I decided for our t-shirts we wanted the quote "Wherever a dancer stands is holy ground." - Martha Graham. We actually researched dancer quotes and some funny ones came up such as :

"No one dances sober, unless they are insane."

"There will always be dirty dishes so you might as well dance."

And some other good ones, I made sure to write in my journal.

Last year we made shirts through the printing press but this year we did them through screen-printing which was SOOOO much easier and faster!

After dinner, the activity was pool night which went fine. :)

Later that evening, all of us met downstairs in the laundry room and had a laundry party with music and all. <3

Hamlet Accountable Talk

1.Did Hamlet really go crazy? How does this connect to his wavering between action and inaction? Why doesn’t Hamlet just kill Claudius?

What are Hamlet’s true motivations for even pursuing the murder of Claudius? Is it Fear? Revenge? Love? Loyalty/Obligation? I’m not entirely sure if Hamlet was necessarily crazy rather than experiencing a devastating tragedy at such a young age. His reaction to “play crazy” was that of a child’s; playing make-believe is very much a child’s way of dealing with such dramatic events. “To put an antic disposition on, That you, at such times seeing me, never shall, With arms encum’red thus, or this headshake, Or by pronouncing of some doubtful phrase” (lines 172-174) is how he tells Horatio and Marcellus his plan. In a very child-like game, he tells them he will play pretend and they mus...

Chapters 14-16 (Creature's POV) - Entry #4

After Frankenstein abandons the creature, other than our short encounter in the woods when Victor is returning from Geneva, we are not exposed to him again until Victor’s retreat to the mountains. In chapter eleven, the creature opens his tale saying he is not quite sure of the beginning of his being; his initial memories and sensations began with his retreat to the woods after Frankenstein’s apartment. Living off berries and nuts, the creature was confused but learning survival skills along the way, including how to set and maintain a fire. I found this lonely encounter may have been initially good for the creature because it allowed him to figure out his surroundings of this new life he was brought into; however, keeping in mind while he is the great, big creature, he is very much in the dark about life and society itself, and without Victor to help him, he was completely and utterly alone. Agreed - the reflection gives the reader time to know the character rather than meet who Vict...
