Throughout the past week or two, we've been reading "Midsummer Night's Dream" by William Shakespeare. I would have too say that's it's a pretty decent read (so far). The language is kinda confusing but sooner or later we'll get used to it. It is supposed to be a comedy play believed to have been written between 1590 and 1596. It portrays the events surrounding the marriage of the Duke of Athens, Theseus, and Hippolyta. These include the adventures of four young Athenian lovers and a group of six amateur actors  who are controlled and manipulated by the fairies who inhabit the forest, which is what ms.hegeman told us. But as of right now we're nowhere near that part. We are at the part where Hermia and Helena argue. They argue because Helena is convinced Hermia, her closest and oldest friend, is “…one of this confederacy…” to mock her. They are also arguing because Hermia is convinced Helena is scorning her by refusing Lysander’s love after somehow managing to make him fall in love with her (Helena) and, hence, out of love with herself (Hermia). Hopefully we read more and get too the "funny" parts
