Something I noticed that stuck throughout the whole book was the witches. The first time I remember the witches was when Macbeth came in and we were introduced to them. This is what makes me remember the prophecy throughout the whole book. We slowly learn more about it and as the ending of the book comes we understand the outcome of the prophecy.
The outcome of the prophecy was nothing that I expected. It was a reversed truth. This causes me to remember to beginning of the book were I thought the witches were only good to Macbeth! The reserved truth of the prophecy is that the witches told Macbeth that he would somebody become king. Macbeth was impatient and started to kill people and thats where I think the the lie to the truth comes in!

Macbeth Quotes and reading times
I spent about 3 hours on my portfolio project, 30 minutes reviewing for macbeth quiz, and I read for about an hour of Lauren Conrad: fashion book
Foul is fair and fair is foul
This quote is obviously a quote that sticks out to most people. When I hear this I dont automatically think of Macbeth like most people because usually I am trying to figure it out. If you break it up into two parts (foul is fair) and (fair is foul) you can really understand just what Shakespeare means. Some people may disagree but this is what I think of when I hear Foul is fair and Fair is foul.
Foul is fair- sometimes being foul or something foul can lead to a fair thing. I do not think that this is true all the time but for Macbeth I feel like this quote describes it perfectly.
Fair is foul- now even though foul is fair is the complete opposite of fair is foul this also makes since. Sometimes for things to be fair they had to be foul. For intense to make something fair you may have to split something half way but that could be foul to the person who was suppose to get more causing fair to be foul.

Free Post-Lifeguarding
This past Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday I got Lifeguard certified. It was a lot of work and exhausting but I can not wait to work this summer! This is something I have looked forward to since I was young. So many of my friends will be working with me that I will have a blast. But more important than that I learned the real techniques used if something serious were to happen. It is EXTREMELY hard to carry a person bigger than you across the pool while performing CPR so I do hope that this will not happen this summer!
I had this class form 9-3 and we got an hour break for lunch. I signed up with 3 of my friends Tyler, Jake, and Brennan who will also be working with me. We were super nervous we wouldn't pass the final test so we came to my house thursday and studied for a couple hours. Luckily we all passed the written test friday afternoon and then completed the skills test which were both super hard. I cant wait for what this job brings me this coming summer!
Times
I finished my whole world history book roughly 6-7 hour chilling on the beach(:
stared to work on my final English project a little sunday afternoon for about an hour

2 Statements
1. Everyone is capable of lying, betrayal, and violence, which are basic parts of human nature.
I agree with this statement but not completely. I feel that the word violence is not strictly used. When really I look at violence like committing a crime. This quote for some reason reminds me of the 3 witches and how they were evil. I say evil because the word I think of when I see these 3 words is evil.
2. Ambition is a positive, desirable trait in a person.
I agree with this statement. I think that having ambition leads to being a positive person with a positive attitude. A person who has ambition for sure has a desirable trait because they have ambition and series to do and finish things.
