Time flies ...........

This week is already Week 13! Oh my god! How time flies by...... Anyway, this week is the submission week for my research paper. I've already finished editing the last draft of the paper and I'm so happy! This is a major assignment and I've really put in alot of effort to finish it. I have chose King Lear as my topic because it examines the tragic hero's relationships with the people around him, good or bad. Lear’s basic flaw at the beginning of the play is that he values appearances above reality. He wants to be treated as a king and to enjoy the title, but he doesn’t want to fulfill a king’s obligations of governing for the good of his subjects. In my opinion, we can learn alot from Lear's character and his downfall..... All in all, I'm happy I chose this as the topic of my research paper!
