Well there are alot of things i though throughout reading and watching the book. One of which was i really think Romeo needs to man up a little and stop crying over Juliet. His whole life revolves around her and that determines his mood and everything. I don't think there was a single part where Romeo was just chillin with his bros talkin about guy stuff. Also about the last scene i really hate it beacause the whole story is about love and they both end up dead so that pisses me off.

Romeo and Juliet picture

I decided that this was an appropriate picture to represent what i think Juliet's room would look like if she were real. This would most likely be what her room would look like because she seems to me kind of like a little girl and this is like a little girls room. Also i think her parents would make her keep her room clean because they are rich and have a maid so that also would resemble what her room would be like. Finally i think this is what Juliet's room would look like because it is pink and she obviously likes pink.

Act two

In act two of what we have read so far there have been two things that jumped out at me that i thought were very interesting. They are the reaction Friar Lawrence had when Romeo came to him and asked him to marry him and Juliet. Also i though it was quite odd how Nurse acted toward Juliet telling her that she wanted to go off and marry Romeo. If i were in either of their shoes i would probably not have done the same thing considering that Romeo and Juliet's parents are enemies.
First the night after Romeo talked to Juliet on the balcony when he went to ask Friar Lawrence to marry them his reaction surprised me. He agreed to and then said that he thought that them getting married might end their parents dispute. Also when Juliet told Nurse to go give Romeo her message she did not protest either even knowing that is was Romeo, the son of Master Montague. I would definitely not have done this considering that i could lose my job if my boss had found out what i had done.

Character

A character in the book that i think would be interesting to meat in real life would be Benvolio, Romeo's cousin. From the way he treats everyone i think he would be a cool guy to hang out with. When Romeo was depressed he was nice to him and he gave him suggestions about his depression like a good friend. Also when they were going to the party it was Mercutio who was making fun of Romeo and Benvolio said nothing.
Another reason why i would be interested to meat Benvolio in life is because he likes a lot of the things i like i think. On the way to the party when the guys were talking he said he wanted to get to the party and dance, which i like to do. All these things would be reasons why it would be fun to meet Benvolio. Mostly because he is a nice, sensitive, caring friend that even though you might be acting different or be sad like Romeo, he would be there.

Premonitions

On multiple occasions, right when i go to bed i remember that my ipod is downstairs and not plugged into my ihome. I am already in bed at this time so i decide not to go downstairs and get it. It may not sound that bad but in the morning it is the thing that wakes me up and without it i just sleep in. This is when i have a bad feeling that i will be late for school the next day because i woke up to late.
The next morning i wake up and it is 7:20 and i haven't even taken a shower yet. I think about how i should of just gotten out of bed, went down stairs and got my ipod but it is to late for that. I take a quick shower, get dressed and get somehting to eat then ride to school as fast as i can. Unfortunately it is to late and i get another tarty just because i wouldn't walk downstairs.

Shakespear Stories

One movie i found that had many instances of plots and ideas from Shakespeare plays was Ferris Bueller's Day Off. One of there parts was when the principal was out looking for Ferris and he finds himself in an pizza parlor. He thinks he sees him and he walks up to the person and says something mean, and the her person turns around and its not him showing mistake identity. It seems like when there is a mistake identity in a Shakespeare play it is funny and in Ferris Bueller's Day off it was too.
Another instance where there is a plot in the movie Ferris Bueller's day off that is like one from Skakespeare is how Cameron's dad loves his car more that life itself. Although they didn't show the part at then end when Cameron faces his day you know he has to choose between the car and his son. This is kind of like a love triangle in that there are two things he loves and they conflict eachother so he has to chose one. Since the car was destroyed in the end and Cameron is taking the blame for it i think his father will choose Cameron becasue he is sticking up for himself.
