Hamlet Response:
The story of Hamlet is a sad and hurtful story. It intrigues you to want to kill the mother of Hamlet and stepfather yourself because of how much backstabbing the mother does towards the death of his father. My life has had nothing close to what Hamlet has gone through but there are times in life where I do feel alone, tired of everyone, attacked, backstabbed, want revenge on peoples horrible actions, stuck, and the times where I just want to be far, far away from everyone. Hamlet was backstabbed and betrayed by his own mother, attacked by his now stepfather, and lost his loved one which also caused him to be depressed but wanting revenge at the same time to all. 2-3 years ago when I was 14-15 I went into a stage of not depression but being sad.. Every single day. There wasn't a day I wouldn't cry. No matter how much I tried to hide it, I couldn't. In school, I couldn't focus because I just felt down because my grandfather died, my stepdad was some what new in my life, I was focused on my current boyfriend now when we broke up for a week or two couple years ago, and my mother and I's relationship wasn't how great as it is today. I felt like I honestly wanted to disappear, I was confused and frustrated with everything, I was sad and that's when it all started to go downhill for me. I didn't wanna go home, I was always out, I didn't want to go to school, I basically wanted to do what I wanted to do and I didn't respect my dad and mothers rules in the house. From then on I took it the hard way by living with my friend for 2 months, living with my grandma for 1 month then finally realizing I have to man up and live with the consequences when I go back home. Now I couldn't ask for anything better, my life is great. The relationship with my stepfather is like peanut butter and jelly, the relationship with my mother is like glue, my boyfriend and I after 3 years are still stronger then ever, and I am completely happy with life. I've learnt that the past is what made me who I am today.

Tattoos
Vocabulary
A) Hypothetical: To assume or supposed to be true.
B) Represent: Be entitled or appointed to act or speak for (someone), esp. in an official capacity.
C) Symbolize: Represent by means of symbols.
D) Value: The regard that something is held to deserve; the importance or preciousness of something.
E) Passionate: Showing or caused by strong feelings or a strong belief.
Questions
1) Five things that I value are my family, close friends, boyfriend, health, and my future becoming a success.
2) Three things I am passionate about are having my own baking and pastry business in the near future, achieving my goals and ambitions in life, and traveling the world with my family, husband and kids.
3) Hypothetically, If I ever chose to get a tattoo ever in my life it would represent either these 3 things: 1) Symbol of my family 2) Something that I went through in life that was a difficult time for me to get through but pulled through it because everything in life has its reasons even if the reasons are unknown or 3) Symbol of my children and husband.
4) The reason why I those my family, children and husband, and life as my three options to symbolize on my body are because those three main things will always be my happiness and keep me going in life. No matter how rough my day can be or how sad I am because of a certain reason my family, husband and children will always be there for me, regardless. If I chose to put a certain symbol to represent something to look back to in the future I wouldn't really know what symbol to choose. I've never been a whole fan of tattoo's but everyone has their reasons. I don't see myself getting a tattoo in the future but if I had to make a choice then it would represent those three things.
5)
"No matter how hard the past is, you can always begin again" behind an infinity symbol. If I had the choice to get a tattoo I would choose to get the one above. Not that specific outline I would make the writing scripted and the infinity symbol just as bold then the writing. The reason I chose this quote is because it referees to my grade 8 and 9 years when I was going through the wrong path in life. I have a blog I wrote about my past which referres to this tattoo I have chosen. http://cassyolazo.blogspot.ca/2013/04/hamlet-response.html and http://cassyolazo.blogspot.ca/2013/03/poem-responce.html

Distinct Public Persona: (Previous Gladiator Assigment)
Someone that comes to mind who has a distinct public persona then my own is one of my closest friend whom does not what to be mentioned unfortunetly. If curious to know who this person is then I'd rather you ask me personally. I, myself when it comes to my public persona am very outgoing, friendly, and warm but my friend is different from myself. She has the type of public persona who is shy until you get to know her personally, a great friend, hilarious, trustworthy, caring, softhearted, considerate, and blunt to certain people. I think both of our personas a quite different because she is an ISFJ and i'm an INTP/ENTP, (INTP & ENTP is described on my previous posts) http://cassyolazo.blogspot.ca/#!/2013/02/entp-intj.html we do get along but we see things differently. I think about the future while she thinks about the moment and past. Living in the moment and past is not a bad thing don't get me wrong but you should also look ahead in life. Ask yourself questions, where can I see myself in 20 years? What do I enjoy doing? What do I wanna do for a life time? If all you do is dwell on the past and moment your not going to get very far. You'll be stuck around your 20's, living at home, relying on your parents, and having a part time job for a life time that pays 14$ hr. Realisitically, you can't depends on that. My public persona builds me to communicate great with people without hesitation, create new frienships unexpectadly, and do very well on interviews without getting nervous. I wouldn't trade who I've grown to be for anything in the world, you have to accept who you are, do changes that will benifit yourself and future, and learn to live with it. Everyone isn't perfect but we should never change our ourselves drastically for someone else. Everything in life has a reason especially for who we are.

Poem Responce
A few days ago we discussed a poem called "Be The Change you Wish To See" written by an unknown author I unfortunately couldn't seem to find. The first two lines of the poem say "Eyes in the skies up so high, A.I is deaf to hopeless cries". A.I is a short abbreviation for artificial intelligence which is a theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as visual perception. "Eyes in the skies up so high" in my personal opinion stick out to mean the most because those 7 words look so little but have so much meaning and thought behind it. For example who knows what this also could be referring to, possibly Illuminati? When you give it time and thought to process the meaning of the poem it COULD also be referring to possibly even the government. In BC there are many lights and camera's everywhere especially in the city of Vancouver. Why? Maybe because Vancouver's violence and drug use has gone higher the past couple years that they keep surveillance camera's around Vancouver to keep an eye on everyone since security guards and police can't always be there 24/7. For example if a random homeless person got beat up in the middle of a dark alley by 2 guys who has no face coverage whatsoever and nobody was around but a random girl walking who will obviously not do anything but call cops, police could look at the surveillance video's and identify the 2 people who brutally beat up the homeless man. By the time the women called the police the 2 men most likely ran away and the only thing they can track the guys with are the videos. Cameras are not there always to be all up in your personal space and watch every move you do, Cameras are meant for all sort of reasons sometimes for the good, sometimes for the bad. When I talk about the bad I mean those creepy people who put cameras inside certain objects to spy on what you are doing. "Excuse my negativity but we have reached The Age Of Futility" these 10 words relate to me because I used to be such a negative, lazy (useless) person when I was 14-15. Whenever my parents asked me to do the simplest things like go to work, go to school, and be honest, I didn't do any of those 3 things. A Year later I went through a rough time with my parents, I didn't wanna come home, I didn't wanna go to school and I didn't wanna work. I got taught the hard way and later down the road I then realized by the time I was 16 to be appreciative, thankful, blessed, honest, caring, hardworking, independent, positive no matter how tough the situation is, and be honest with my parents. Don't get me wrong I've always respected to my parents and loved them like no other but I chose the wrong way to show them my affection. I learned I was a negative person and I didn't have the brains then to change my futility but then again if did not learn the hard way I wouldn't be where I am today. Everything in life happens for a reason. Everything in life is a lesson.

Personas on Maximus
The previous movie we watched was named "Gladiator". An epic historical film directed by Ridley Scott made in 2000. Maxiumus the main character in the movie murders his father and seizes the throne. Reduced to slavery, Maximus rises through the position in the hierarchy of the gladiatorial arena to repay the murder of his family and emperor. While watching throughout the movie Maximus's public and personal persona are not excatly alike. As is everyone else on this world. Maximus is seen in his public persona as a tough guy, "beast", a fighter, undefeatable, and an courageous male but in reality that is who he has to be seen as outside his personal life. In Maximus's personal life he is seen as caring, sympathetic, soft-hearted, and understanding just like everyone else. Everyone has 2 different sides they show it just depeends how you approach them or how you make your first impression. If you come up to someone in a rude tone and cocky then what are the outcomes of their responce towards you? Obviously rude and not polite but if you approach someone in a soft tone, shake their hand, and ask them how they're day is going while intoducing yourself your gonna get a better responce and possibly become friends. In Maximus's perspective his job as an competant ruler is to defeat people while being "entertaining" but when coming home to his family and peers he is not what you see while he entertains. He doesn't slay his wife, child, friend or family if he gets frustrated, he doesn't LOVE to slay or kill people, it wasn't his choice to become the next emperor. What if he doesn't like his job? In the end of the day it wasn't his choice to become what he is now it is just passed on in the family because it is a rule kings and queens have had for centuries.

ENTP & INTJ
INTJs are introspective, analytical, determined persons with natural leadership ability. Being reserved, they prefer to stay in the background while leading. Strategic, knowledgable and adaptable, INTJs are talented in bringing ideas from conception to reality. They expect perfection from themselves as well as others and are comfortable with the leadership of another so long as they are competent. INTJs can also be described as decisive, open-minded, self-confident, attentive, theoretical and pragmatic.
ENTPs are logical, innovative, curious and downright inventive. They see possibilities for improvement everywhere and possess the ability to understand complex concepts. ENTPs are introspective and carefree nonconformists. They often neglect the more common areas of life while pursuing new solutions. ENTPs can be good conversationalists and exciting company.
A few months ago I took this personality test and I showed up as an ENTP. The ENTP has many personality traits that I find very accurate towards myself but also does an INTJ. Rarely. INTJ's and I have in common are a quote I found relating to myself on the website " ... approach reality as they would a giant chess board, always seeking strategies that have a high payoff, and always devising contingency plans in case of error or adversity." Majority of the information I found based on INTJ's are not me. While reading information about ENTP's when I took the test a year ago the more it made me go "THIS IS SO ME! THIS IS SO ME!" it made me wanna read more about myself. The more I read the more it interested me to go on google and search more information about ENTP's. The more I read, the more accurate it got.
ENTP Career MatchesMarketer, Entrepreneur, Sales Representative, Inventor, Photographer, Comedian etc..
The careers that were given to me as an INTJ didn't relate to what I wanted to do or what interested me for my future. But the careers given to me as an ENTP were careers that lead to my future goals. They all lead towards business which is one thing I want to accomplish before my late 20's.

Comm11 Intro Write (10 Year Plan)
I'm the type of person who is out going, friendly, honest, sincere, loving, and soft hearted. When times come rough I always try to look for a positive outcome. "Treat other how you would like to be treated" and "Be the type of person you want to meet" is my motto. In 10 years I see myself owning my own resturaunt business, engaged or married, closer to my goals then I am today, and happy with life. To succed my goal of owning my own resturaunt business I plan to save up 15,000-25,000$ by working constantly and saving money while doing that, take extra cullinary courses in college, living out of Vancouver to save more money, and being wise with my investments. In owning your own business you do not need a special certificate or degree but you do need the knowledge, memory, common sence, people skills, communication skills, and money. In 15 years I do see myself married with 2 to 3 kids with my goals and ambitions successfully accomplished.
