Endgame

      To be honest, this play is the weirdest play I have seen so far, but this property made it interesting at the same time. The main character---Hamm, blind and mean, has a special relationship with Clov that makes the audience question a lot. Does Hamm really love or even cares about Clov? Or does Clov really wanted to leave him and why didn't he left if he have been wanting to leave as he said in his conversation with Hamm? However, I remember that one of the audience said that it is a different way of loving, which I agree. It is like how I have been wanting to reach 18 as an adult so that I could go wherever I want with a driver license and go back home whenever I want without my parents' restrictions; But doesn't that meant more responsibility I will have to shoulder on my own? The will wanting to leave and wanting to stay is always pulling between each other when we feel like we're under control, but under control of people we are thankful of and who we love or who we are familiar with to the moment we're born.
    Another interesting, yet warming and cute part is the interactions between the old man and wife living inside the trash can. Many interepretations could be made on this performance; however, I think that it shows love in a simple way. Giving what you have, sharing what you have and trying the best to reach out to each other. It is not how much you give, but how much you give out of everything you have. I might only give you a piece of bread, but that's all I got. Moving on to the trash can, I think it could be representing the old man and wife's situation closing to death. Because whenever something is no longer functioning, people throw it in the trash  can; Both of them are old and sick, they could barely move, so to show their position close to death and to the end, is simply placing them inside and beside the trashes. But even then, they are still beside each other with love and support.
     Overall, this play gave me a weird mood, too. Not total sadness nor happiness, I did not know what to think about the play immidiately; it took me time to think carefully in details what is the play trying to show and give to the audience. Basically questions doubting human existence and whether how their way of living is worthy or meaningful. It brought out a common question between teenagers and even older people. I doubt if studying hard would help me in the future, I doubt if I  could be successful and I doubt the moments when I'm in school if it is meaningful. People older might also doubt their jobs, and their entire life whether it is colorful and rich enough that it does not feel like it is wasted.
