Portfolio #3
            It is that time again, a time to compile all those crazy, interesting and insightful blog comments from my peers and I. In this portfolio, I will show great thought and curiosity to the plays we have read. It will show how well my …

In Shakespeare, Hamlet (IV-V) I noticed this passage:
Wow, where do I start, first of all the scene with the king making a deal to fight Hamlet, shows that Hamlet was right all along about his uncle/father. I think the part of the play that makes me wonder if it is …

In Kelly, xxxii-xxxv I noticed this passage:

In Hughes, Harlem. I did not care for the poem, it was kind of gross. I read some of Langston Hughes other poems and the one about the blues was good. Over all it was just ok. I read a little about his background and found it interesting that the …

I have to say that I did not like the first poem by Langston Hughes, it was kind of gross. I did however read a few of his other poems and the one about the blues was pretty good. I don’t have a fav line just in general it was …
