Today was picture day. Woo. Woo.

Yeah so Heather waited on me today to go get pictures done, which was cool. Then we sat in Einstein's until I had to go to English.

In class, we had a discussion on chapters 1-3 and had an activity. Which was it. She assigned us chapters 4-5 for homework.

Then in Government, we met in the library and we were suppose to work on our group project but instead, Emilia, Channel, Heather and I sort of just played on our laptops the entire time. Then because I didn't feel well, I didn't go to dance, and we all went to Einstein's so they could all get food. It was fun. We chit chatted and stuff.

At 7:00, Heather and I went to the OcTuba Fest where they sold food and we heard music and had a great conversation about like life and social issues. It was awesome. She brought me home around 9:00 and now I'm doing some homework. :)

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?

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...
