Have you ever known a secret that you thought you should tell? Did you tell? If you've never experienced this, what do you think it would be like to know a secret that you think is dangerous?

Um....... i can't really think of one right now, but i am sure that i have had one or more of those experiences. I think depending what the secret is it could really be anything. It could be thrilling because you are excited for what is going to happen.

It could be scary because you did something wrong and you don't want anybody to find out what it is, or what you did/didn't do. It could be a dangerous situation and you should definitely tell someone, and get help. like if you over hear someone plotting something bad then you should tell someone who could help.

But you never want to tell someone the secret if telling it could put you in danger, so you should tell someone but make sure that the person is either okay with you telling someone, or that they don't know that you are the one who told (but not like behind there back, only if it would help you and other people).

Write a journal from the perspective of Romeo, Juliet, Friar Laurence or Nurse. It should take place after the end of Act II when Romeo and Juliet have been secretly married. Remember, you ARE this person writing what they would be thinking and feeling at this time. 3 PARAGRAPHS!
Friar Laurence: Romeo and Juliet are married and it seems like they are happy. It was a very nice ceremony and they are a lovely couple. I wish them a long life together. I hope that there family's wont be to mad. I hope (but know it won't happen) that it will end the two family's quarrel.

Juliet had a very lovely dress, made by nurse and it just made her look marvelous. Romeo was wearing nothing to brag about, i think that he was just so excited that he didn't really care what he was wearing.

They wish that they could spend more time together but it is very difficult with there family's hating each other and all. I don't know how Romeo will tell his parents, they will feel so betrayed. Juliet is going to have a hard time too. I wish them both the best of luck and a long life together.

Do you believe in Fate? Are there certain things in life that, once set in motion, are inevitable; things that cannot be stopped once they are started? The story of Romeo and Juliet implies that the path of their love and what happens to them is part of Fate's plan. Do you think this is possible?

Um........ well i think that some things are meant to be, like someone out there that is just (or in some way) like you. That you shouldn't be alone in your life, not that you don't want to be alone, because i guess some people do want to be alone for the rest of there life's, but i believe that there is someone out there for everyone.

I think that if you set yourself up for something to happen it could be "fate". But not everything is up to "fate". You could really not want something to happen that is supposed to be "fate" but you stop it from happening.

You could always change things from happening if you don't want it to happen. Just becuase it is "fate" doesn't mean that you will set it in motion, or atleast anytime soon. You live your life the way you want to live it.

Benvolio: I have been trying to get Romeo to see that Rosaline is not the only girl out there. He i haveing a very hard time relizing this and he is starting to dissapoint me. I don't know what i am going to do next.

I have thought of a plan to get Romeo to see that there are other girls. There is a girl from the Capulet family. Her name is Juliet and she is a very beautiful girl who i think that he will like. The problem is that the Capulets are fighting his family the Montegue's.

I am taking Romeo to a party tonight in the honor of the Capulet family. I am going to help him see all of the many girls he could have a chance with and help him get over Rosaline. I am hoping that this will work but he is very stuborn.

9th grade:

Define true love. Do you believe it exists?

(Hint: have you ever seen it? give an example. Why do you believe/not believe in it?)
9th grade:

Define true love. Do you believe it exists?
Um..... True love..... i guess i believe in it. It is when you would do anything for someone. You would die so that they could live. I guess i could say that i have seen it with my parents..... Well my mom and my step dad. It is kind of the like the saying about something about something being skin deep.

It is when you see a very beautiful person and it doesn't matter because you already have this other "person" and that person doesn't change anything. You always feel good around them and no matter what you do you have fun with them. You could be sitting around and doing nothing but still have fun.

You feel safe around them. You don't fight you just "argue" or "state your opinion". You feel as though you will love them forever and that will never change. You respect them. The only reason you are with them is not becuase they are the "hottest" cheerleader or the "hottest" football player.

Super Power

If you had one superpower, what would it be and why? (Hint: describe exactly what your power would be, why you would want that one, what you would use your power for, etc. Would you be good or evil? Would you use it just for fun or for a good cause?)

I would want either super speed, or to teleport. I would probably use it for some good and some bad. I mean if i lost all of my money and i could even afford to feed my self i could run in and out of some "Wal-mart" or something without even being seen. Or i could use my teleporting ability's to go in and out without even being seen.

I could pop up in some bank robery and start taking hostages out of the building. I could run in there and take them all out if i had super speed. But I think that i would mostly want to teleport. I mean if a "Villian" through me of a cliff I could teleport right back up unscathed.

I could teleport myself into a bank safe and be one of the richest people in the world, or i could teleport myself in Bill Gates house and take some of his money. I could be anywhere at anytime. i would never have to get up early to be somewhere because i could be there in less then a second. Now that i think about it i wouldn't even need to use money i could take anything from anywhere at anytime and nobody could catch me.

What comes to your mind when you hear the words, "Now we're going to read Shakespeare!" Do you cringe in fear? Do you giggle with glee? What past experiences have you had with Shakespeare to make you react the way you do?:

It makes me think of a picture of Shakespeare with bird and stars floating around his head. It makes my head hurt without even starting to read... anything! It makes me tired and want to sleep. It makes me think of long nights and not getting any sleep to try to keep up with the class and try to understand.

It makes me want to run away. To try everything to not have to read it. It makes me think of everything from love stories, to people killing each other just because they are mad at them. It makes me think of strange people, using strange words just to describe the simplest of things.

Never thinking that the book will end, or the day, and even English class. It makes me dread reading. Thinking of gripping battle, all the way to boring romance with two young lovers. Never knowing what is truly going on, and what is going to happen, or I can even say to know what has happened.
