Wounded men were pouring off the sets of rowboats being pulled by the steamboats. Many of the soldiers were unrecognisable. My thoughts went out to my little brother who had been so excited to enlist‚ but it wasn’t the case anymore. I had heard one of the captains talking about the thousands of men who had already lost their lives to the

April 4th‚ 2013 Dear God‚ Recently I’ve been thinking a lot since I’ve been here at Hospital Angeles Tijuana about my family and the fact that I have been lost at sea for 227 days. I miss my family‚ but I miss Richard Parker too. Well I just can’t believe what happened these past 7 months. It’s crazy to acknowledge the fact that I’ve been out there for over half a year. Two men who claimed to be some Japanese Transport Officials visited me and asked me questions about what happened when the

I am the eldest son of King Duncan and also was the one to put the end to Macbeth. Despite this‚ I surely wasn’t prepared for being the new King of Scotland. This position had great responsibilities‚ ones that had to take getting used to. One thing admittedly that I should’ve been ready for was the commoners who

Character Diary – Hamlet Act 1 Day 1 - I was once again reminded of my mothers’ marriage to my uncle‚ Claudius. To this day I still feel disgusted and outraged that either of them would think it is morally okay to do such a thing. My father had only past away under a month before my mother had married my father’s brother. I think it’s terribly disrespectful and ignorant towards my father. He would have given the world and more. He loved her more then anything‚ and I don’t understand how she
