So, after school started my day got better, honestly. I had time to calm down and just focus on something else other than all the stress.
In English class, we had just finished Macbeth and after we turned in our essays, my teacher told us we were going to write a monologue in the perspective of a bad character (I'm not naming because you might read Macbeth when you're older and I am not one to spoil) who kills herself and then we get act it out next time. So, my friends Osi, Julia, Kate, and I all wrote a pretty morbid one. Julia came up with the idea for the theme, Kate is surprisingly awesome with generating morbid and very Shakespearean expressions, Osi is phenomenal at acting, and well...I'm a good typer/editor. Part of the monologue goes like this: "Thou evil, cursed crimson, rid thyself from me!"
And then on the way home from school, I was really craving Asian food. So we went by Kroger and I got a box of California rolls (consequently, I learned that when people say wasabi is hot, they aren't kidding!) and ate every last one.
Yay! This is my sesquicentennial (except not really, since a sesquicentennial is every 150 years so technically I'm misusing the word but I wanted to use the word sesquicentennial when referring to any unit of 150) post!
Heh, I sort of want to read your monologue now. Except for the fact I haven't read Macbath yet so that wouldn't exactly work out.
ReplyDeleteAlso, sesquicentennial is such a cool word. :)
