My term paper for my summer literature class is due today at 5 PM.

The assignment is to select any work of literature that we read this semester and argue something about it. The work I selected is Macbeth by William Shakespeare. My argument is that Macbeth starts as a normal and sane man, but gets driven insane throughout the plot; this process is initiated by the witches’ prophecy, is further fueled by his wife’s influence, and is later confirmed by his hallucinations.

If you’ve read some of my previous blog posts or my tweets, you might know that the place I usually do my homework is a lobby commons area where a lot of people pass, and it can get pretty distracting. Because this paper has such a tight deadline, I decided to go into a random classroom and work in there.

Quite a nice selection, if I do say so myself – there’s a nice scenic view through a large window that lets in a perfect amount of natural light so I don’t have to turn on the regular lights.

Time to go back to writing my paper.
