Juliet's Diary From William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet 6th April I cannot believe my mother. Nurse raises me and mothers me and is with me all the day but mother still thinks she can turn up and order me about. If she wants me to marry, then it is a honour I dream not of. Nurse understands, why can't mother be more like her? Apparently the 'valiant Paris' seeks me for his love. I'll look to like, if looking liking move, but I will look no deeper than madam's consent gives me strength. The more she pushes me, the more I will resist. I'm not a little girl anymore. 8th April It is the night of Father's ball… A huge thing in our house. Thankfully it is over now. Although not all events were as dismal as the ball. I was standing by the door, as far away from my family as possible, when a young man caught my eye. He was fair and very handsome and I could not break eye contact. It was as though he had cast a spell on me, I was in a trace. No-one else in the room seemed to making any noise, it was just me and him. This wonderful dark stranger gazing at me gave me an odd feeling. I do not think it was love, but I cannot be sure. I had never felt this way before, especially towards a complete stranger. I saw him making his way over to me and I felt my heart begin to race. When he spoke, he had a calm, soothing voice and he spoke so sweetly. I felt myself bushing as he referred my hand to a holy shrine! I have never been spoken to in that way before. It was… I do not know how to describe it, beautiful I suppose. He was acting a bit forward so I decided to play him along slightly. He wished to kiss me so I told... ... middle of paper ... ... then had the nerve to say he wanted th' exchange of my love's faithful vow. I gave him mine before he didst request it! O my bounty is as boundless as the sea, my love as deep. I asked him to send me word tomorrow about our marriage. By the hour of nine I shall send to him and I will not fail; 'tis twenty years till then. Parting was such sweet sorrow and I cannot wait until morning. 9th April It is my wedding day! We actually did it. I cannot see my love until this evening now but it will be worth the wait. I wonder what will happen when word gets out. I suppose I am quite nervous about the reactions of my parents and I almost feel guilty. But then I think of my sweet Romeo and all those feelings go. We did not think of the consequences before we went ahead with it. I expect now is the time to consider them.
Romeo and Juliet are committed to their love. There so committed that they got married the very next day they first met. The second time they met was on Juliet’s balcony by accident, because Romeo didn’t want to go home and he wanted to see Juliet again. They were talking for a few minutes and kissed each other many times, and Juliet said to Romeo, “If that thy bent of love be honorable, Thy purpose marriage, send me word tomorrow”(Act two, Scene two). Juliet tells Romeo if you you love me so much, the marry me tomorrow. Romeo without hesitation, agreed to marry Juliet the next day at the Church. Romeo and Juliet decide to marry at 9 o'clock in the morning. Later on, Romeo asks Faire ( a priest) to allow him and Juliet to marry. At
Juliet as a Disobedient Wretch in William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. The quote that Lord Capulet said to Juliet, calling her a "disobedient" wretch" in Act III Scene 5. He enters the play delighted because he has good news that Juliet is going to marry Paris. Juliet refuses this and as soon as Juliet tells Lord Capulet this, he is furious.
I can see the moon from here. She just came up over that building.(...) I’ve always loved the moon. I’ll even go out looking for her when she is not in sight. We read Romeo and Juliet in school last year and I was surprised and kind of mad when Juliet called the moon unreliable- “inconstant” she called it. I tried to start a discussion about it in class, but it didn’t really go over. Juliet seemed to be saying that since the moon was never in the same place from one night to the next that it was “inconstant”. I think she just liked to hear the sound of her own voice.
My poster represents the struggle Juliet experiences. I drew Juliet in this state because through most of the story, Juliet was upset because of many tragic events that occurred. Most of her whining was over Romeo. Specifically, the quote represents her lost love with him when he made too many hasty decisions. His decisions were the main reason why they died and Juliet has a difficult time recovering from his choices. This quote reflects her thoughts towards the beginning of the play about Romeo and that she should not rush into love with him so quickly. But she did and when everything goes wrong she probably feels regret. I also decided to draw her because as a teenage girl, I can somehow understand her predicament and I regret some
I felt something in my pocket, no it couldn I walked outside and it was almost time for the marriage ceremony, I felt so happy that the situation was dealt with and I wanted to see my wife in her beautiful dress more than I wanted another glass of water. I felt a presence outside and then saw sheep, it was the sheep I gave The King of Salem, I could tell because of that face of wanting more food and water. I just felt as if the wedding was a path full of smooth stones with pointy, cracked rocks at the end. Maybe it was not.
Tonight I met him. He was so beautiful! He even has a name that would roll of one’s tongue….Romeo. How wonderful of a sound that brings to my ears. I wish, I hope, in fact, I know that he is my lord. The one and only lord that I want to have for my entire life. And, can you believe how amazing he is? Do you know what he did after the party tonight? He crept back onto the grounds of my father’s house and climbed up the side of the balcony to catch a glimpse of me. Oh, can you believe that!

Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary defines love as a strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties. Love is a journey that begins by building a foundation of trust, commitment, and understanding. The speaker is thorough and demanding to the point that the speaker becomes a façade to keep prospective loves away. Without love as the speaker begins to say life becomes pointless.
Scene 1 Act 1:Scene one opens with a fight on the streets of Verona between servants from the Montague and Capulet households. While attempting to stop the fight, Benvolio is drawn in by Tybalt. The heads of both houses (Montague and Capulet) arrive on the scene. Prince Escalus arrives and stops the fight, forbidding any further brawls.

I hope you know how thankful I am for you. I’m thankful for the godly man that God is making of you. I’m thankful for this time in which we get to grow in Jesus Christ individually so that someday we can keep growing in Him together. This time in which you prepare to become a true man and I a Proverbs 31 woman. I’m thankful that I will someday get to be that blessed girl to love on you and support you and laugh with you and cry with you and raise a family with you and simply spend this journey of life with you.
In William Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet play, the character that I took interest in and thought that helped with unfolding the plot the most would be Juliet. Juliet played a very big role because she was the star crossed lover of Romeo Montague. In my slide, I pulled out a few quotes that I found that focused on Juliet’s personality. Juliet provides a pure and beautiful personality. Romeo says “It is the east, and Juliet is the sun” (2.2.3) while she enters the balcony for their kissing scene. To interpret this, it meant as a comparison, as Romeo expresses Juliet’s beauty and radiant glow. Romeo falls in love with Juliet at first sight and he truly shows compassion for her. To symbolize her beauty and glow, I chose to put a picture of a sun.
