shakespeare

9th Grade: What comes to your mind when you hear the words, "Now we're going to read Shakespeare!" Do you cringe in fear? Do you giggle with glee? What past experiences have you had with Shakespeare to make you react the way you do?
When I hear the word shakespeare! I get really scared, like insainly terrified!! I get so scared I... Well you get the point. I do not like shakespeare because i have heard it is very hard to understand and so i dont want to read it.
I also heard that the books can get really old even if you do understand what there talking about. I have never read any of it myself, so this year is the first year. My brother has read alot of it and he hates it. So I have a crazy feeling... I'm going to hate it to! Atleast i'll live.
