Friday and the Weekend

I can't believe the weekend is already over!! It went by way to fast!!! So it is our last day to blog and I almost totally forgot!! Friday was so much fun!! I really enjoyed working with Ms. Hallmark with Photo Story!! I can't wait to finish mine tomorrow!! It really halped me to understand the poem more by writing down what I visualized and then finding pictures to go along with it!!! I chose the poem about swimming and I found a lot of good pictures!! So it was so weird last night I had this dream that we puton Romeo and Juliet the play at our school and I was Juliet. It was a very different version though!!! It had like cats and stuff in it. I don't realy remember much else!! Today I went and saw the opera H.M.S. Pinafore that was put on by the choir and I was really impressed. All the singing was amazing and the leads did an excellent job. The story line was also very excting. It was about a ship called H.M.S Pinafore and the captain had arranged for his daughter to be married to teh rich Sir Joseph, but she was in love with a poor sailor named Ralph. They knew they would probably never marry because of thier differences in ranks but they still continued their love for one another. Well meanwhile, the Captain and Sir Joseph feel that Josephine feels like Sir is to good for her so they give her this big long speech about how love levels all ranks. She thinks this means that it is ok that she can marry Ralph so she is very excited and they think she finnally got the message and is going to marry Sir Joeseph. She runs to find Ralph and when Sir Joseph finds them together he arrests Ralph and throws him in the dungeon. That is when the truth unfolds. Lady Buttercup another passenger on the ship admits to have switching Captain and Ralph when she used to babysit them as younger boys. SO therefore Ralph is really the captain and the Captain is really a poor sailor Ralph. Sir Joseph no longer wants to marry Josephine beacause she is such a low rank so then her and really the captain or Ralph can get married. It was so good!! Well I am looking forward to reading more in Romeo and Juliet as the week goes on!! See everyone tomorrow!!
