Romeo and Juliet


So did anyone else have problems reading the scene 1 for the first time? I know I had trouble. I read it all and then I said "huh, what did I just read." After we read it in class today I feel like I understand it better than I did. I am very interested in reading Shakespeare though because I have actually visited his home town and his house that his wife and children lived in. It was so interesting and I learned many things about him and his literature. So now I am anxious to continue to read, understand, and learn about his writings such as Romeo and Juliet. Well, I hope everyone continues to have a good week and weekend!

Yeah I had a lot of trouble reading too!!! I would have nver thought some of those words meant what they meant!! Why do they have to make things so confusing?? Tonight's reading went a lot better for me though so I think I am getting better!!! So where exactly is Shakesperae's house?? That is prety cool you have visited it!! Did you learn a lot about him???

O my goodness! It is so hard to understand I feel so dumbfounded! I wish I knew what they were talking about but I think that I am getting a little better and I have no idea where Shakespeare's hous was...
