Thankful for a Classmate(s)

1st period English is my favorite class. Despite the work and discussions, the atmosphere is very relaxed. With thanksgiving coming up, I am thankful for Kristy, Kay Kay and Gabe.

Kristy is by far one of the biggest try-hards when it comes to school. She constantly talks about how tired she is or how she is going to fail her tests later on in the day. Despite her annoyances about school work, Kristy is my ultimate motivator and savior when it comes to academics. Coming home late from practice, I am sure to find Kristy being available on social media to ask questions on assignments ranging from math to science. Without Kristy, I could honestly say that I wouldn't be surviving high school. Thanks bud!

I've known Kay Kay since last year, and it was a thrill being in the same class as her again. Kay Kay has to be one of the most genuine and honest person I've ever met. She never rejects to help anyone, despite how she feels about that person. One of the greatest memories at this school would be making jokes around Kay Kay. Even though she clearly might not get the joke, she would laugh anyways. I am super grateful for knowing her!

Gabe is by far one of the smartest people ever. He would claim to never study, but still pull a 99% on the AP Chemistry test. I am thankful for Gabe because of his friendly personality and for doing the chemistry labs. Gabe is the best!

Have a Happy Thanksgivng!

Then He Is Dead?

After reading Macbeth, I feel that Macbeth's actions were not worthwhile. He did accomplish his goal of becoming king, but his temporary reign defeats the purpose. Also, his sanity, dignity, and morale was hurt from his actions and the others around him. After Macbeth's fortune was told to him, it seemed as though his demeanor was completely altered in a way for the worse. He could have been a good king, but instead, his cockiness and over-assurance of maintaining his throne made his followers suspicious and skeptical about him. 

 Another point I would like the address is how he was always timid and fearful that another person was plotting to kill him. Hence, he decided to kill Banquo, his best friend. In class, we discussed the topic of being good outweighing the bad. Macbeth's actions of killing Duncan could be justified if he turned out to be good and performed good deeds. Instead, Macbeth constantly did bad, one after another. He went crazy, and I feel that his actions really effected him in the long run. It was just not worth it.
