Ugh. Mondays.
It's okay Einstein's fixed that annoyance easily with a hot, large White Chocolate Mocha<3.

Anyway, our day began with Ballet with Kim and then Jazz with Marcus. Then the afternoon classes were Stretch/Yoga with Marcus, Ballet rehearsal with Margaret, and Interdisciplinary (still working on our wearables project).

Then Cross Disciplinary activity was music with Professor Halbeck, an aspiring artist as well as talent musician. She performed a piece accompanied with artwork that she felt portrayed the piece, and so our activity was to visualize while she was playing on a scratch piece of paper and then take our notes or drawings and turn them into an actual art form, visualizing and interpreting the music as we may. I honestly loved this project, it was kind of collage-y which I ADORE doing. So it was great!<3

After dinner we had Animation night with Kell Black, where we just watched some short animated clips and things like that. We finished the evening activity relatively early, so we all went back to the dorm to just hang out. We ended up ordering pizza and having a great time<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? Is he just a man who needs assurance beyond a doubt of Claudius’ guilt? Is he unable to take action because the opportunity never presents itself? Is he simply a coward? 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...
