What comes to your mind when you hear the words, "Now we're going to read Shakespeare!" Do you cringe in fear? Do you giggle with glee? What past experiences have you had with Shakespeare to make you react the way you do?:

It makes me think of a picture of Shakespeare with bird and stars floating around his head. It makes my head hurt without even starting to read... anything! It makes me tired and want to sleep. It makes me think of long nights and not getting any sleep to try to keep up with the class and try to understand.

It makes me want to run away. To try everything to not have to read it. It makes me think of everything from love stories, to people killing each other just because they are mad at them. It makes me think of strange people, using strange words just to describe the simplest of things.

Never thinking that the book will end, or the day, and even English class. It makes me dread reading. Thinking of gripping battle, all the way to boring romance with two young lovers. Never knowing what is truly going on, and what is going to happen, or I can even say to know what has happened.
