English Sucks. Why Can't We All Just Speak Spanish? Part 2.

I hate English. So freaking much. But haven't we already established that?

Shakespeare is just...stupid. Period. Romeo and Juliet is a pointless book. Haven't we had enough books/movies/songs about love and dying? It's so cliché! Why couldn't he write about something more interesting? Like a day in the life of a mailman? That sounds pretty awesome, if you ask me! The stupid translation on the right sides doesn't even help, either, because it's just stupid! It's pointless!

But the activities we have to do are even dumber! At first, the whole "act it out" idea sounded fun! Swoardfighting, insulting eachother, yelling, what else could be better? Well, tons of things, as it turns out. Yelling "yeasty rabbit-sucking scab" isn't exactly what I had in mind. Possibly like "freaking idiot" or something a little more...ghetto?

Amd then what's up with Mrs. Hutzell and her little "The Odyssey is Danny's favorite book!" mindset? Is she freaking joking? And then asking me "So, Danny, what book do you like better? The Odyssey or Romeo and Juliet?" comments make me want to throw a brick at something/someone. It's seriously not that funny any more.

If I wanted to read Shakespeare and act it out like this, I would join Briana in the freaking Shakespeare club. As if!
