Act 2, Scene 2: Prompt C

Scene 2.5—Romeo says, "O, speak again, bright angel, for thou art as glorious to this night, being o'er my head, as is a winged messenger of heaven." This line that Romeo says really tells us what Romeo is feeling towards Juliet. He wants Juliet to speak more because he thinks that she sounds like an angel. He talks about her from being a messenger from heaven which really gives us an insight on how much he loves her. This really sets the mood for the Balcony scene because throughout the whole scene they are going back and forth telling each other how much they love each other. This first few lines that Romeo says really gets you into the perspective on how this scene is going to go between him and Juliet.

ACT 1, SCENE 1: THE CAPULET'S AND MONTAGUE'S QUARREL

Questions for Romeo and Juliet, Act 1, Scene 1: Interview with a Civilian

Host: So what are your opinions on the resent quarrel between the two rival family's, Montague and Capulet?

Civilian: I think it is ridiculous! I mean, do they even know what they are fighting for? Both family's are fighting over small, and petty things. This has happened now three times between them and it is getting very out of hand. Both family's need to stop this fight among them, or it will not end well for both of them.

Host: I know you watched the quarrel happen, but I want to know, who do you think started the fight this time?

Civilian: Well, I think the Capulet's started the fight this time. The Capulet's ,unprovoked, started to say things to the Montague's. Then the Montague's did make a few jokes towards them but, Tybalt was way out of hand when he freaked out and started a fight between them. Which then caused the Prince to tell both family's that they will be executed if another fight happens in the streets.

Host: On the topic of the Prince, do you think what he told both family's was justified?

Civilian: To be honest, I think it was. The Prince mostly does things for the benefit of the city. So by telling both family's they will be executed for disturbing the streets again is a valid argument. Both family's in their foolish fights, have caused the civilians, such as myself, great harm in this quarrels for too long. So, yes I do believe that the Prince was not out of hand to tell the Montague's and Capulet's their fate if they do such actions again.

It Was a Long Time Ago...

It Was a Long Time Ago...

It was a little bit back in time

A major falling point in my life.

It was during school in 2nd grade, I was sent outside to cool off because I

did something in class.Then while

Outside I sat down on a bench. I got

a rock and wanted to throw it on

the roof for some dumb reason.

But that's when it happened, my life changed forever in just a few seconds of time. I threw the rock at the roof, but I missed. The rock slammed into the window and broke it. The glass flew threw the air and hit students, and that

is when I knew everything had

Changed. It felt like time slowed

Down as I slowly watched the glass shatter everywhere. Then I was sent to the principal's office crying and sad about what I have done, but the worst part was when I saw my mom crying. I knew what I had did was accident, but just  the guilt of making her feel like she did hurt me inside and I couldn’t ever forgive myself for awhile. But like I said, it was a long time ago, and it doesn’t really matter any more.
