Gwen walked outside only to get a face full of the cool, cold breeze gliding across her face. She had on a lightweight, zipped up maroon jacket that still kept her warm despite its thickness.

Her somewhat medium-length bright, blonde hair went down just a little past the hood of her jacket. Being 17, Gwen hopped into her bright white 2014 Volkswagen Jetta - not the most spacious car in the world, but it got her where she needed to go.

Few couples in theatre can match the incessantly devoted yet poisonous marriage Macbeth and his wife share. Lady Macbeth and Macbeth’s combined ruthlessness allows them to climb to the top but also leads them to their deaths. Shakespeare creates a vision of Scotland where reality and dreams, the natural and supernatural, and the masculine and feminine constantly ebb into each other. Macbeth possesses remnants of the Renaissance’s interest in humanism and psychological exploration, leading to some of Shakespeare’s most compelling characters ever. Characters’ reactions to the two sexes in Macbeth dramatizes the indecisive relationship humans have with gender and its place in society. With the Elizabethan theatre serving as a backdrop, this fickleness with gender becomes greatly apparent. Shakespeare uses Macbeth to challenge the social constructs surrounding gender and the negative effects they have on people.

It was the beginning of Autumn, and the leaves had just started to fall, the smell of pumpkins and freshly raked leaves. Lucy began walking as her dog followed her through the dark, narrow trail. As they were walking Lucy heard a ruffle coming from the bush, she stopped and peeked over to see what there was. A confused elder man startles Lucy as she turns around he asks what time it was she questions why he is out so late.
