This year..

This year one major thing I've learned is from Hamlet, especially the "to be or not to be" soliloquy.  This showed me that when you doubt you can learn or memorize something, looking at it from all points of view helps tremendously.  Also the more you research about it and the more you go over and over it the faster what seems like a foreign language becomes one that you can decipher for yourself.  Not looking at things so seriously but having an air of lightness around memorizing the soliloquy helped me so much and kept me from getting so frustrated. Knowing what your reading and saying helps you understand what your memorizing and can make a huge difference.
