Hello my fellow people.

I'm trying to come up with different ways to say "hey" to guys, so if you have suggestions, comment them down below!

Anyway, today was a really uneventful day.

So I intended to wake up around 8 this morning but instead, my alarm ended up going off a million times and I didn't get out of bed until 10:30. Which, on the plus side, just means I got a good amount of sleep this weekend.

I made myself some breakfast and watched my recorded episode of The Vampire Diaries, which is still amazing without Elena (Nina Dobrev) and that sort of surprised me.

Anyway, then I began my very tedious work of homework. Ugh. So I realized I had 5 chapters of Grendel by John Gardner to read, 4 chapters of E=mc2 by David Bodanis to read, and notes to write on Chapter 6 in my Psychology text book.

Oh and I had scholarships and other applications to fill out. Yep. I'm a genius, aren't I?

So that's what my day has consisted of and I'm still not done.

I did take a little break for lunch (I ate cheese pizza and watched YouTube videos) before going right back to it.

I also have some books I've been meaning to read, so for November I'm really going to crack down on my time management.

OH YES! I also signed up for NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) and if you're interested on knowing more about that you can click on that link or if you want to follow what I'm doing, I'll be participating this year. Hopefully. Honestly, I tried last year and 50,000 words in one month is A LOT but I'm a bit more determined this year. This week I intend to brainstorm and maybe outline some things before November comes. So that's super exciting. :) <3333

I went outside for a few minutes today and took some pictures since it was a nice, rainy, autumnal day. <33 Have I mentioned, I love autumn?

And yeah, that's pretty much the extent of it. I still have a lot to do but wanted to write this little blog post before I forgot. (:

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...
