on this page i would like to share some of the places i've found educational and that have to do with
literature...
SHAKESPEARE
...i first read him in highschool, didn't have much of a clue,
didn't know what i was reading and thought they were making me do it as some sort of primitive torture...then i read something of his on my own
during summer, enjoyed it much more...in college i sought him out once more - found him exclusively in a set of classes which i loved!!!
the prof. was a real expert. soon after, i picked up my 2nd major - english - my Shakespeare prof. became my advisor.
the gratification reached a pinnacle when i actually got great grades - who ever gets the rare opportunity to do something they love, that they excel in AND that they receive CREDIT for (3.0 hours even!)
thus i would like to pay homage to A: Shakespeare and in essence B: my alma mater
"Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind;
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind"
"The Rude Sea grew civil at her song,
And certain stars shot madly from their spheres
To hear the sea-maid's music."
to begin the maze | to entertain | to love | to people & places |
