Errands and To-Do's

Well my weekend thus far has been filled with To-Do lists and errands.



This morning I woke up at 8:15, did the dishes, made some coffee, and prepared myself breakfast. Trying to complete a couple of things off my to-do list while my mom was out at choir practice, I wrote my chosen career field Senior Seminar paper, mailed a scholarship, packaged my friend's gift, reorganized my binders, and tidied up my little nook area. At 12:15, I got dressed and made my mom and I some lunch before we headed out on our errands.



My family recently got a YMCA membership so first we went and got our pictures taken for the system and got free t-shirts. Next was a stop to an ATM, then gas, and finally Fort Campbell Commissary to do grocery shopping. We managed to buy lots of Vegetarian products, fruits, and vegetables for me so that was wonderful!<3



We got home around 6, putting everything away and Mom practiced before we prepared dinner. (: Also, in the mail came an AFS 2016 calendar so that was a nice surprise!



Now I still have plenty of things I need to get done before tomorrow but thankfully it's a three day weekend.

On the other hand, I did manage to read a good portion of Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy<33

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...
