Fate in Romeo && Juliet

Fate plays a big role in Romeo && Juliet. It was fate that brought them together in the first place. Also when they fell in love when they first saw each other. That doesn't happen to most people. They were destined to be with each other because of that. There also must be some fate in that they are from rivalry families so this was destined to bring those families together.

Shakespeare Difficulty (5/9)

My first impressions of reading Shakespeare is that he has a wide ranged vocabulary. It's like he makes up his own words because it's really hard to understand. You have to think about it a lot to understand what he's trying to get at. So for me it's really hard to understand what everyone's saying in the play.

SAT worries (5/5)

I think colleges should focus more on overall academic performance. I think this because people try so hard in school so it shouldn't be overlooked because of one test. Some people could do so well in school and then do badly on the test but then not get into the college they want. And I think the overall academic performance looks on how much they try in school.

End of Play

I think the play will end by the families ending their feud. When Romeo and Juliet kill themselves, I think in some way it'll bring the Montagues and Capulets together. They will end their feud due to their kids killing themselves because they couldn't be together because of that family feud..

Marriage

If I had to choose a place to get married, it would be somewhere outside. I don’t know exactly where, but I’d like for it be outside somewhere. This is because I wouldn’t want to get married in a church or something. I like the whole idea of it being outside.

Favorite Character

Juliet is my favorite character in Romeo and Juliet. This is because she's not a stereotypical girl. She doesn't care much about getting married and such. She's more like a tom-boy type than a girly girl. So I admire that.

What I feel about the overly joyous reaction in the US to the news of Osama Bin Laden's death, is that they deserve to be happy about it. He was dangerous and a threat to Americans so we all deserve to be happy that he's dead. He won't be able to attack us anymore and he got what he deserves.
