Drama Drama Drama!

So as we all know this past Tuesday was election day and for the first time, I got to vote.  It was very exciting because I really felt like an adult.  I actually cared this time because I was apart of it.  But leading up to all of this proud voting nonsense was DRAMA.  All the horrible commercials and the endless "He said this ... blah, blah, blah."  It just was full of drama and honestly, I didn't care for any of it which makes me nervous to start this new unit of DRAMA.

Oedipus Rex wasn't a bad read.  I honestly enjoyed the story but now we move into Shakespeare.  Like Mr. Mullins said in class, Shakespeare is definitely an acquired likeness. I really enjoyed Romeo and Juliet in Freshman English but I think that has to do with the fact the Leonardo DiCaprio was playing Romeo.  Othello was a different story.  I could not get into Othello at all.  I remember only the basic plot and I honestly did not care what happened in the play.  Obviously I've heard of Hamlet but I don't know anything about it. It's like a whole different country that I've only heard about but never touched.

I'm pretty much worried about the drama unit because I know I'm not good with drama.  It will definitely take a lot of focus for me to get into Hamlet but hopefully I can.
