Romeo and Juliet: Premonitions

One time about a year ago i had a dream that i was going to have some really bad luck the next day. I obviously didn't beleve my dream and the next day surly enough i lost $10 and i got a bad grade on a test i really studied for and just everything went wrong. It was horrable...but now i acctually "listen" to things like that.

Shakespearean Stories

I have seen She's the man and i liked it a lot! I think that it is a love triangle. I think that they got the idea of the love triangle from Shakespeare but i think they gave it a twist, because there is only two people but it is a love triangle because one of the people dresses up as another person so that is why i think they made it a twist. In A Midsummer Night's Dream there was a love square until Puck messed everything up. But that is just another example of love triangles and love squares.

Anticipating Shakespeare

So far in A Midsummer Night's Dream I do get most of it. Some of the things i get by just figureing out what goes on next but i usually get it when it happens. I am understanding the word choices a lot more than i did before. I think it helps to watch a movie to understand how they talk before we read Romeo and Juliet. I really like how Shakespeare writes. It shows how people used to talk and it is very interesting to try to figure out what they are saying. I like a little veriaty in my reading. I have never read a book that is writen like Shakespeare's writing. I am very excited to read Romeo and Juliet, many of my friend's tell me it is a good book.
