Busy day, busy day.

I woke up at 7:30 and made breakfast while watching "Every Little Step".

Next, I finished my 1st load of laundry and put away/started a new load of dishes.

At 9:00, I practiced cello for an hour and had a random spur of wanting to clean my room, so I reorganized my bookshelves, tidied up my vanity, vacuumed, and set out my autumn/fall decorations.

Then I decided to make some lunch which consisted of rice with peppers, green beans, onions, and season salt plus extra green beans and tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers. While eating, I watched my recorded second episode of American Horror Story - Hotel.

My 2nd load of laundry finished so I put that away and then my mom came home so I made a pot of coffee for the two of us. After some chit-chat, I lit some candles and worked on my Chapter 5 Psychology notes.

After watching a few youtube videos and lounging on the couch, I decided to to read Once by Anna Carey while eating a few slices of bread with hummus.

Tonight we to watched The Walking Dead while eating dinner which was cool. I ate my fruit (apples, raspberries and bananas). 

THEN I dyed parts of my hair pink😊 Because it's October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month and for my friend, Meghan's mom who is going through chemo right now. She's strong and amazing, and I just wanted to support her.

Overall, I must admit, this fall break has been nice and relaxing for the most part.

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...
