Hamlet

This past week we have read and watched Shakespeare's masterpiece Hamlet. Hamlet is a story about a prince whose father has past away. Soon after his fathers death, his uncle marries his mother. Hamlet speculates that his uncle had something to do with his fathers death. The night of the marriage Hamlet is visited by the ghost of his father. The ghost then tells Hamlet of how he had died. He said the uncle actually poisoned him while he was sleeping in his garden, and that is where we left off. 

I usually hate plays, but Hamlet has actually caught my attention. I like how Shakespeare shapes his words and I like the story line of Hamlet. I cant wait to read more of this exciting master piece.

HELL

Today in S.S. we discussed about hell. When people view hell, they first think of the fire and brimstone or whatever. But when i think of hell, i don't see that at all. I think that hell is a place where you cant see anything. You are trapped in darkness and you are with others who also cant hear or see you. If you had addictions here on earth, it is taken with you to hell. No more drugs and fun stuff like that, you are there basically to torture yourself forever.

I think that the people that go to hell are the people who have done really really bad things to another person like murder. I think that for example Hitler or Stalin would be good examples of hell dwellers because of the mass killings of people. These people are the ones that have done a great deal of wrong toward mankind and God. So, as punishment, God sends them to their eternal damnation of darkness.

My personal hell would be school. The reason being because of the amount of stress and energy and time it takes to do homework and other school things. And going to school everyday get kind of old and boring and nothing new really happens and you are always sleepy.
