Hello again! Reading is going well. I'm reading 2 of Shakespeare's plays at the same time for different classes and I keep mixing up the events and characters (basically I forget what is happening in one and think it's happening in the other), but I'm getting better. Other than that, my class dedicated to writing is starting to pick up a little more which is immensely entertaining. I'm feeling way less stressed than last semester.
Hello again, Maddy. Nice to see you drop by. Oh my, I also struggled with memorizing Shakespeare's characters et al. The mix of English and Italian names is quite remarkable. Glad that the class is picking up and you're feeling better compared to previous semester! As for me, still unemployed, Walmart won't even hire me. Sending emails online has not worked, and meeting employers in person and handing out resumes the old-fashioned way doesn't work either. In my past seven years of job hunting, I've only been hired three times, but I'll still try again this Monday!

I'm reading both As You Like It and Othello. No opinion on either yet to be honest.
Not even on the boy who plays a girl who is pretending to be a boy playing a girl?
... did I get that right?
Well, we hadn't gotten that far before today, so I hadn't much opinion at first. And I believe that's correct? It's an actor (boy) playing a girl character, who in the play disguises herself as a boy, and then agrees to pretend to be a girl again. So yeah.
I quite enjoy As You Like It. It's the origin of a few of Shakespeare's more well known lines, as you'll find out as you go through. Never got around to reading Othello, despite the attempts of my Shakespeare module to make me. Perhaps when I'm done with university I can get around to enjoying these books.
