If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to study English literature A-level in an all girls sixth form with a young teacher then just know that once (and this is a few years ago now) my teacher played the “If the men find out we can shapeshift they’re going to tell the Church!!” video and then asked us what about the video we could apply to studying The Handmaid’s Tale

I may not show it but;

"Hey, since we're not texting like we used to, I don't know about your day, I don't know what you're going through anymore. I miss the moments when you share everything about your life. I wish nothing but the best for you but in the end, I just really miss you."

I saw a Shakespeare play at the Globe today and it's wild how right that felt.

The fun thing about living with a theatre major is that I get to be the rubber duck for art projects and literary analysis. This is great because I love literary analysis but don't get to take lit. classes anymore.

"What is the future if not a product of choices past? Each, a fork in the road. None can divine the conclusion of every path. And yet, all tales that begin with a chance encounter share the same end: a tearful farewell." a good loveless quote to pocket for a clerith gifset perhaps? (albeit a sad one i suppose loll)
