Macbeth is a particularly dark tragedy, says my English teacher.

IT makes me sad that people are forced to read Macbeth. Ours is an sweet Shawian comedy in english.

Macbeth is one of my favourite tragedies. I taught my sixth grade class the abridged version of it and oh boy, never ever abridge Shakespearean plays. They weren't able to fully appreciate it... they are only 12 years old though so I let it pass...
Ace your exam, Quasi!

I like Macbeth too.  I like books that make me sad...or make me feel anything, really.
I found a bookstore today that stocks Pushkin and has an entire SECTION for Russian history. My life is now complete.
Welcome, donod! We seem to getting loads of Nepalis in this thread lately.

i fear that "something is rotten in the state of [my heart]."
okay. thats was lame. let me off, im sad.
i didnt even study hamlet. it was the "all the world's a stage, and men and women merely players" one for me. i used to think it was inspirational and disheartening at the same time. now its just disillusioning.
im sad about no 800s in maths1, FAILS in literature, shoddy SAT1, sad transcript, no-hope for my hsc, and no point to yale-apping.
sora is ebullient no more... | |

SORA! Optimism is the stronghold of this thread.
/spontaneous philosophic sayings
No, seriously. RELAX. Act drunk. What should happen WILL happen. You've given it your best shot, and that's all that's in your hands .

sora, i hope you don't mind me barging in on your misery but i'm sad too. i'm faaar from an 800 in math. i can't even reach a 600 in SAT I
on a more optimistic note, i think the "beauty" of american colleges is that there's more to admissions than just stats and grades so don't lose hope just yet!!
All else fails, we still have that CC backpacking trip across Europe to look forward to! | |

Yeah, sora! Go hang out with your friends, drink lots of Coke, dance around to Cobra Starship, shriek a lot, bounce around, and DON'T THINK ABOUT COLLEGE. YOU WILL GO SOMEWHERE GREAT, never mind where. We have our whole lives to look forward to - let's not let something stupid like whether we go to Yale or Iowa State for undergrad ruin that. Because it's not where we go, it's what we do there. Cliche, but so true. Besides, as October's Child said, you never know what's going to happen.
And there's always grad school. And work. And if you end up as a hobo (which OBVIOUSLY YOU'RE NOT GOING TO), the rest of us will make sure you get fed and clothed, because WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER!!!!
Haha donod, I've yet to start prepping for USH. I was going to today, but my school exams finished and I ended up wandering all over town with my friends, doing really really stupid things. Oh well. Tomorrow is another day!
