Hamlet Diary

Act 1:

1st Entry;

I am still in morn. My father's death came as to a

shock to me. He was a great man who led and served his

country well. He died of means, which are unknown,

which leaves me curious on the manner. As I am soaked

from head to toe in these inky-covered clothes, I sit

and contemplate. It has been one month since and my

father's brother; Claudius is to be wedded with my

mother. Is it possible that my mother is finished

grieving? I know that there is no time put on such a

feeling, but one month! Can be true. Father was a good

King; loyal, trusting and good at heart. Does my

mother realize? Has she, herself been shocked with the

tragedy that our family has encountered? And what is

this about Claudius? I mean, his Brother! One month and

these two are ready for the incest within marriage.

Claudius is acting with haste. I do understand the

position on which now lies upon him, but what I don't

understand is how could they be already in love so soon

after my very fathers death?!

I shall keep my eyes open, as I keep these clouds above my head. 2nd

Entry;

My fathers back from the dead! Could it be true? Does my father

lie in purgatory? Why does he lay unrest? Does Horatio speak

the truth? He is such the scholar, but does his eyes deceive

him? I shall go and look for my self! 3rd Entry;

It is true! My father has chosen to show to warn me about the

unfaithful deeds. MURDERED! Claudius, that swine. Plague upon

him. With his murderous intentions, he shall feel the rage,

which my father unleashes upon him. Is my mother blind to

these intentions? To these actions? Is it true, that my mother

and Claudius had adulterous relations before my father's death?

I am now mad, for that will be the explanation which people

will say in my defense. I will play insane, for people will

expect such intentions of my revenge. My father's murder has

now brought me to an unconscious state. When I seek revenge,

it is merle just an act out of my madness. I must reveal his

sinister-like actions. Revenge has to be wisely thought out. I

will reveal Claudius, and kill him at the right time. I swear

on my father's grave, I shall heed my father's commands.

4th Entry;

Most foul, strange and unnatural. Claudius kills, for the crown
