So yesterday was a very saddening, traumatic, and terrible day; my cat died...
My 15 year old cat, that I have had since I could remember, is gone...
Titi, beloved cat, passed away yesterday around 6:30 by simple old age...
It was very sad. We all cried.
And that's why I wasn't really into the whole blogging yesterday.

Anyway, yesterday, I had my College Algebra class (which I was late to, again... I really should leave my house earlier...) then lunch with Gabby, Emilia, Heather, and Brittany before going to Psychology. We got half way through Chapter two which means I have a this entire weekend to read ahead to Chapter three. Perfect. Directly after, I went to Physics where I was partnered up with Maddy for the two labs we had in class, which we ended up staying an hour longer to finish so we wouldn't have to find time later. And finally, I went to Science Olympiad where I am currently studying Anatomy&Phsiology, Astronomy, and Forensics... Fun, fun, fun!! Then mom came to pick me up and we went home.... which is when we found Titi just in time before his last breaths... again, lots and lots of tears....


But today, new day. Still sad, but a new day.
Woke up at 6 to go running with Caitlyn at 6:15, took a shower and got ready. Then stopped by the middle school since Alexander (my younger brother) forgot his trombone at home, before going to the vet to bring Titi to be cremated.
I met with Heather on campus at 9:15 in the library to "work on our government project" but uh ended up doing nothing.
It also turns out that I'm getting sick right when my alergies are kicking in so that's great.
Anyway, then I went the Marks for a Math Team meeting, which I'm joining.
Instead of going to my Senior Seminar class, I had to go conduct interviews for my English creative response project. I also had English class today at 1:45, which Emilia and I showed up just in time for. (:
At three, mom and I came home and I've been slugging around ever since. (:
No regrets people, no regrets.

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...
