Last term of English classes-after this I just need some electives and I will finally get my BA in English with a Writing minor.
My computer is sending this from my blog to facebook and I can’t stop it. That’s it I need to remove the battery. Maybe technology finally took over.

“
“Neither a borrower nor a lender be;
For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.
This above all: to thine ownself be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.
Farewell: my blessing season this in thee!”
—Lord Polonius, Hamlet Act I, Scene 3
”“The first glimpses of envy were personified in around the year eight. The book Metamorphosis of Ovid was the earliest writing that I could find, that mentioned envy. The concept of envy had been around long before then. It had not yet been personified. It was Ovid who brought envy to life. Ovid did two things for envy: First he embodied envy and second he personified her. I separate these two very familiar terms for a reason. I am using the term embodiment as an abstract term. Embodiment is referring to envy (Invidia) as a whole, whereas envy was personified into an entity (person) know as Invidia.” —
