Hello kala.

Been a while. Almost all my friends are on today ^_^

That's great. I have been talking to lots of people recently as well. Yesterday was kind of depressing because not many people were on. But today is great!

To be, or not to be- that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer 1750
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them. To die- to sleep-

Do you have to memorize that for school or something?
-
No, but i'm trying to memorize it anyway.
-
Oh. In my past school years I have had to memorize lots of poetry including Shakespeare. I don't really like Shakespeare but he is better than Longfellow. Have you read Longfellow's poem "Evangeline"? It took me like twenty times to read it to even understand it, and when I finally understood it it was so depressing that I never read it again.
-
Where did Ati go?
-
No, never read it.
With Shakespeare's plays I like Macbeth and Hamlet.
We had to memorize lines from Macbeth last week, it was easy.
Twenty times is a lot was it a long poem? -
Unsure.
-
Yeah it was like 1395 lines long. You can read it at

Long. I'll look at it later sometime if I remember.

It is so long! It is really depressing, it's about a girl and boy who fall in love and get engaged but then they get separated and the girl spends the rest of her life looking for the boy, and then at the very end of her life she finds him in a place where people are sick from a plague or something, and then she dies right after he does. It's really depressing but if you are a poetry fanatic you should read it.
-
I'll read it if I remember.
Can see how its depressing. -
I had to read that poem for school a couple years ago and I had two quizzes on it and bombed both of them. I usually like poetry but not the kind that's really hard to understand.
