Ah, I liked World History. Ancient Cultures are my favorites and Mythology is my forte.
-
I wish we did Mythology or anything apart from how the First Fleet landed. Granted, it's been a little better this year, but still.
-
Mythology is wonderful. If it was possible, I would major in Mythology. I see no profit in it, though, so Mythology will, unfortunately, have to remain a hobby.

We call it SOSE at my school (studies of society and environment) i like SOSE though! well, mainly geography and history...hehe
-
yours sounds a little better...We did a basic something on maps, but we've forgotten most of it. Then it was back to the convicts in Botany Bay.
-
ahahaha yeah we did Australian History in year 8 as well...its better in year 9...
-
I hated geography. Does anyone have any idea when it would be relevant to know that the capital of Bulgaria is Sofia?
-

just did the tameing of the shrew in writing club, it was good.
luckely we were not subject to shannons white board display, you know what i mean raven. -
Ha, I LOVE Shannons white board display.
I've recently written a part of a intertextual poem using Macbeths speech;
Is this a dagger I see before me? -
I've never read Shakepere. Ever. I don't think I'd understand it. I have a hard time with the language of older books. Anything before 100 years ago is pretty much lost on me.
-
To be or not to be. That is the question.
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer,
The arrows and bows of fortuneFrom Hamlet. That's all I know from memory.
-
That soliloqui is acctually about whether he should commit suicide or not (to be, or to live).
'Get thee to a nunnery' another line from Hamlet. -
See, I was lost by the second line of that Hamlet quote. Fail. *sighs* It also just took me 4 tries to spell the word "lost" right, which is just sad.

"Was the hope drunk wherin you dressed yourself
hath it slept since? And wakes it now to look so green and pale at what it did so freely.
There was a time of such I account my love. Art thou afeard..."Thats what I remember from that Macbeth quote. I LOVE Macbeth, but I think I took the taming of the shrew the wrong way.
Shakespere is brilliant."What beast was't then that made you break this enterprise to me?"
I can't beleve my drama teacher wants me to play her in er... something.(Lady Macbeth) Yes.
She's one good character. (Well is 'good' the right word?) -
i like the shakespere quote from romeo and juliet
"I will bite my thumb at them..."
"Do you bite your thumb at us sir?"
"I do bite my thumb"
"Do you bite your thumb at us sir?"
"No, sir i do not bite my thumb at tyou sir, but i bite my thumb sir"
The first time i read that, i was like "WTF!?!?!" -
Biting your thumb at someone in Shakespearian times was the equivalent of flipping the bird at them now. *laughs*
-

Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer

Hi TaPa
-
Shakespeare??
I think the oldest book I read was Treasure Island.
But Shakespeare???
I highly doubt that I'll understand it. -
Shakespeare is awesome though!
-
It is!
And Tammy T., that quote was by Hamlet wondering if he should bother living.
I'm about to watch '10 things I hate about you', it's a modern version of 'the taming of the shrew'.
I hope it's better than the play though, beacuse I took it the wrong way and it makes me feel sick. -
i know, i know. i've read it... anyway, i got abducted by aliens!!!! and they forced me to marry a cow!!! but i destroyed them!!! now i'm in rehab. i hacked into the system.
-
