Essays / Personal Statements for Kent State Honors College; start needed [5]

For the Kent State Honors College they are asking for me to answer 2 writing prompts (250 word limit).

1. Describe your academic background and interests

2. How will the Honors College experience contribute to your academic and personal goals?

I have absolutely no idea where to start for either of them.
Any ideas, thoughts, suggestions, examples? Anything really would be helpful

Book Reports / Suicide "to be or not to be"; Garde 12 Hamlet Final Essay [3]

In gender and queer studies Hamlet is shown as "weak" in the beginning of the novelthan as "strong" when he chooses "not to be".

Novel - Hamlet is a PLAY not a novel
Than - Than is used when you say something like "The grass was greener on this side of the fence than the other side." Then is used when you have an order of things

In gender and queer studies Hamlet is shown as "weak" in the beginning of the play,then as "strong" when he chooses "not to be".

Other than that, it seems fine so far.
I don't really know how else to help you without knowing how you need help.

Book Reports / Claudius & Gertrudes Wedding. How does this event contribute to the meaning of the play? [2]

One reason it can be difficult to find quotes relating directly to their wedding is because the wedding happened soon after the funeral which was before the beginning of the play. But if you really search, you can find some quotes.

Ham. "She married. O, most wicked speed, to post / With such dexterity to incestuous sheets!" (Act I. scene ii. 156-157)

Soon after Hamlet says this, he and Horatio have a conversation about the real reason he (Horatio) is there.

Ham. I am very glad to see you. Good even, sir -- / But what, in faith, make you from Wittenberg?
Hor. A traunt disposition, good my lord.
Ham. I would not hear your enemy say so, / Nor shall you do my ear that violence / To make it truster of your own report / Against yourself. I know you are no traunt. / But what is your affair in Elsinore? / We'll teach you to drink deep ere you depart.

Hor. My lord, I came to see your father's funeral.
Ham. I prithee do not mock me, fellow-student, / I think it was to see my mother's wedding.
Hor. Indeed, my lord, it followed hard upon.
Ham. Thrift, thrift, Horatio. The funeral baked meats / Did coldly furnish forth the marriage tables. (Act I. scene ii. 167-181)

Those are the quotes I could find right now, but I know that there are some quotes said by the Ghost, however, most will be by either Hamlet or the King.

Essays / Personal Statements for Kent State Honors College; start needed [5]

I think I finished the first prompt, I just need someone to look over it now.

I am considering a major in architecture with a double major in business administration because I have always enjoyed buildings, designing my own, and business. Throughout high school, I was a co-backstage manager for multiple plays and musicals and I would also help with set design. It was during these plays that I realized I love design and making blueprints.

Currently I am an intern at my church being trained in not only the business aspect of things, but also being a team leader and contributing in the planning of events and workshops.

One of my long-term goals is to earn my MArc. After getting my masters, I believe there are many opportunities to fulfill my dreams of design and helping others. Right now I am considering working for an architecture firm, but I am also interested in the possibility of starting a firm of my own.
