Macbeth and Reading Times

            The three witches have major roles in Macbeth. They are the ones who tell Macbeth his prophecy. In my opinion, they are the ones who doom Macbeth. If he hadn’t met them, there is a huge possibility that his life would not have changed so dramatically. The witches enjoy being evil. One of the witches even says, “Fair is foul and foul is fair.”

            “Fair is foul and foul is fair” is an important quote because it gives the reader the idea that the witches are wicked. When they say this, they are explaining that sometimes life isn’t fair. Bad things often happen. They witches actually probably enjoy being the ones who cause such foul things to happen. They are evil, dramatic creatures, and this quote shows that.

       This week is spring break! It has been so nice to just to stay home with my family and hang out with some friends. Even though it is spring break, I still have a lot of homework to do. My goal is to do a lot of projects that are going to be due within the next few weeks. That way, I won't have to do them later. I have really been enjoying this time away from school.

        Yesterday, I went babysitting. I stayed with a six year old named Trey and a nine year old named Lila. Their parents are friends, and they needed someone to babysit because they went to work. I stayed from 8:30 until 5. It was a long day, but I had fun. I hope that I can babysit them again!

Respond to Two Statements

“Ambition is a positive, desirable trait in a person.”

       I neither agree nor disagree with this quote. Ambition, in my opinion, can have either a positive or negative effect on a person. For example, if a student is ambitious to get good grades, he/she will probably study and work hard to achieve that goal. This shows ambition working positively in a person. On the other hand, we see Macbeth and Lady Macbeth are ambitious for power, so they kill the person who is in their way of obtaining that power. This obviously is extreme, but it conveys the fact that ambition can have negative effects on people.

 “Everyone is capable of lying, betrayal, and violence, which are basic parts of human nature.”

       I agree with quote. I feel as though all humans are capable of making mistakes such as lying, betrayal, and violence. People, though, also have a conscience and should know what is right and what is wrong. With the help of their consciences and knowing the difference between right and wrong, people have the ability to make the right choices.
