Today was rather hectic.
I woke up at 5:30 to go on my run with Caitlyn and it was pretty intense and I'm imensely sore. But it's a good kind of sore.
Then I took a shower before getting ready, eating breakfast and rushing to school since I had to put my cello in my music locker before going to Algebra. As a result, I ended up being a few minutes late but it was fine.
In class we went over radicals and then given homework over it. I was a bit confused on the homework so tomorrow I'm going to stop by his office to talk to him about it.
Then I ate lunch with Emilia and Gabby before Ben arrived and sat with us for about 20 minutes.
Psychology started at 11:15 and we finished chapter 1 in class and began chapter 2. The subject itself is extremely interesting!
Right after class I headed to Starbucks to grab some coffee before Physics. In class we had a test then given a worksheet before being dismissed. Our homework assignment was to begin reading E=mc2 A biography of the world's most famous equation by David Bodanis, which is already SO AMAZING!
After class, I went to the music building for my cello lesson with Dr.Lara, which went pretty well since I practiced a lot this week. My mom was in the same buiding so I gave her my cello after our lesson for her to take home.
My next stop was Science Olympiad at 4:40 and I got my two top competition study-materials for Anatomy and Astronomy so that should be super fun.
But yeah, that's pretty much the extent of my day! :)

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...
