"MSND" Love Essay

 

Act 4 (attempting ICE but really not getting the 'E' in ICE

 

     What do you think Shakespeare is trying to say about love and infatuation? I believe that Shakespeare is saying that you will know if you are in love or not. You will have no doubts, you will feel like you've never felt before and yo would do anything for that person. Infatuation may be confusing, but if you have doubts about being with taht person then it's not love.

     Lysander and Hermia were deeply in love. Both wanting to run away just so they could get married. Except Puck had accidentally poured the juice from the flower on Lysander's eyes. He was under a spell and he said that he loved Helena instead of Hermia. When the spell was broken he loved Hermia once again. Although, he thought that it was all a dream. As Lysander had said, "My Lord, I shall reply amazedly, half sleep, half waking: but as yet, I swear, I cannot truly say how I came here."

     Demetrius once vowed to Helena that he loved her so, but once he saw Hermia he took back those vowels. Helena was crushed and she was so jealous of Hermia. Puck had squeezed the juice from the flower unto Demetrius eyes and he loved Helena once again. "My love to Hermia, melted as the snow, seems to me now as the remembrance of an idle gaud", said Demetrius.

     Oberon had Titania put under a spell too, along with Bottom. Bottom had had a donkey's head put onto his own and Titania had awakened and was in love with him. She had said to him, "What wilt thou hear some music, my sweet love?" The spell had been broken and she loved Oberon again. I believe that all the spells were meant for infatuation except Demetrius because he had loved Helena once before. His love for Hermia was infatuation. Yet Lysander and Hermia's love is definitely not infatuation, its just love.

"Assignment #11" Feb 11 pages 119-151

Augusten hates going to school and he has had this problem for many years. Their this particular girl in his class and she is everything that he is not. He hates her for this. She is outgoing, funny, smart, and very popular. She never wears the same clothes two days in a row. Everytime Augusten goes to school, he feels lonely and depressed. He actually told his mom about just killing himself, but his mom is all about herself. She doesnt think of anyone else because she is phsycotic. Dr. Finch actually comes up with this idea where they will stage Augusten trying to commit suicide so he wont have to go to school for a while. He gives him a fifth of Jack Daniels and 3 valumes... Augusten eventually wakes up in the hospital getting his stomach pumped. He falls back asleep and he wakes up in a mental hospital. His roommates name is Kevin and he is 19. Kevin also tryed to kill himself. Augusten is not aloud to tell anyone about this or Dr. Finch can lose his medical license. The next chapter Augusten's mom gives up custody of him to Dr. Finch, so now he is his father. Augusten soon confesses to his mom and Dr. Finch about Bookman, whom is his 30 year old boyfriend. His mother and Dr. Finch are very supportive of him in this situation. As Natalie and Augusten are sitting in the kitchen talking about how they hated both their lives, they start tearing down the kitchen ceiling to make a sky light. Dr. Finch is not at all mad, he actually likes the finishing touch even though the roof leaks when it rains and snows.

 

 "Assignment #10" Feb. 10  pages 111-118

This chapter is about Augusten being 13 and he gets raped by an older man... He doesnt really know how to react how he should feel because in some way he liked it. He has known that he was gay for years now, but nothing like this has ever quite happened. He thinks about what just happend, nothing seems wrong, he feels lost, but also in control. Augustine is very confused, but this incident does not change the way he thinks about men.

GLad you are doing a little more. You need to label your IR much better. Look on the front for an example.

Week 2-------------------------IR-----------------------0/3 (none for week 2 or week 3)

See me after class to make sure you understand how things are set up. You are not labeling anything correctly. You are missing massive amounts of work. This is getting critical.
Week 3-----------------------------------IR------------------------------------0/3 (none for 7,8,9).....You are not labeling these correctly at all. Check the front page of our wiki space.

Work on your glogster by re-reading the instruction sheet and reviewing the rubric (you really should be focused on this!)

Great comments on the breakdown of the information! You are missing hyperlinks and music. There are many good things going on! You need to always do your independent reading!

I would focus on English class as something important in your life. You can do well; you can be successful...but not doing anything is not the recipe for success.
