Hamlet is full of controversy and rage. Shakespeare portrayed characters in the book as some evil, some kind, some insane and some sneaky. In my opinion, Polonius was sneaky and evil, Queen Gertrude was sneaky, and Hamlet was insane! I enjoy reading shakespeare tragedies because it gives me a certain condolence. My leisure time is spent writing; stories, poems, or my thoughts. English class has bettered my writing and furthered my knowledge with a better understanding of grammer, puncuation, and the meaning behind my words. I look forward to reading more shakespeare. I find it interesting understanding old language. It's a struggle trying to translate Shakespeare's words into modern language, but it helps you understand the meaning behind the story better. As a writer, I wish to write poems or stories and be remembered for my work as Shakespeare has. It's every writiers dream to be gone but remembered for what they did best, and thats writing!
