I believe Romeo and Juliet should be remembered as being fools. First off I think that there love was not a real one seeing as though they got married after seeing each other about two times. Also it is said that Romeo only loves with his eyes so he didn't care about Juliet as a person but of her beauty. Lastly I think that it was dumb of Romeo to take his own life when he thought Juliets was gone. In Act V Scene 3 Romeo goes into the tomb that holds Juliets body and says, "Is crimson in thy lips and in the cheeks,". He sees Juliets body and it looks alive. Instead of killing himself right then and there he should of checked if she were still breathing, and then Friar Laurence could of told him about there plans, but instead he killed himself like a fool.

I believe that Juliets parents are the bad guys, I also think that it was Shakespears intentions to make them seem like they are the bad guys. They are forcing Juliet to marry Paris, I get that it was a different time period but if Romeo and Juliet are in love they should let them be happy. Capulet even says that if she does not marry Paris he wants nothing to do with her. In Act III scene 5 Capulet says, "Speak not, reply not, do not answer me!". He says this to Juliet and does not want to speak to her after she refuses to marry Paris.

Juliet is glad that Romeo isn't dead but rather banished. Of course she doesn't want her love to be gone but she knows that the Prince could of had him killed but banished home instead, so she in great full for that. However Romeo sees it in a different way. To him banishment is as good as being dead because he cannot be with his love. In Act III Scene 3 Romeo says, "There is not world without Verona walls". Then later says, "Calling death "banishment",". Romeo would rather die then be banished and Juliet would rather have Romeo banished then dead.

I do not think that one love is worth your life, at least to a point. I think that the love is worth having if both of you will die. But if only one of you dies I don't think the other should take there life. I know this is a weird statement but I believe it is true. If you two know that your love should cost both of you your lives then go for it. But if only one dies I think the other should fight through it because there are plenty of more people out there for you, and you shouldn't rob yourself of that. In Act II Scence 3 Friar Laurence says, "O, mickle is the powerful grace that lies In plants, herbs, stones, and their true qualities; For naught so vile that on the earth doth live But to the earth some special good doth live". He talks about the good and the bad, like this journal, love and death.

I think Romeo and Juliet's love is shallow. I think this because at this point in the play they have only known each other for a very short amount of time. Sure they have kissed but that is only because Romeo thought she was attractive. There whole relationships at this point is based on mutual agreement on each other being attractive, they don't even fully recognize each other's voice. In Act II Scene 2 Romeo says, "As is a winged messenger of Heaven". This refers to his fondness of Juliet's beauty.

Mercutio does not take life as seriously as Romeo does. He is joking around while Romeo is very depressed about his love being gone. In this way Marcutio is Romeos foil. In act 1 scene 4 Mercutio says "Nay, gentle Romeo,we must have you dance." Romeo replies "Not I, believe me. You have dancing shoes With nimble soles; I have a soul of lead So stakes me to the ground I cannot move." This is an example of there contrast.

I think Romeo is a romantic. He had fallen in love to a girl, Roseline, that he could never have. He does not think that anyone compares to her as a person and in beauty. Because of this he has not gotten over her and locks himself up in his room and cries in the forrest. For these reasons I think Romeo is a romantic

If I could sing a duet with and singer in history I would probably choose the king of Rock'n'Roll, Elvis Presley. He is one of the classic musicians and made Rock'n'Roll a mainstream hit, and I like to mimic his singing style. I do enjoy his music as well. I also think that he would've been a great person to meet with a very unique personality. He could show me some of his famous dance moves and we could wear some of his signature clothing. Although I am not a singer, what so ever, I would do a duet if it was with the classic Elvis. I'd also ask him for a hair off, to see who's was better.
I would want to sing one of his songs, because I like them a good bit and he'd know those the best I assume. But if I had to choose one song of his to sing it would be Hound Dog because I like singing it the most out of all of his songs. I could talk to him about the Tennessee life because me and him both have ties to Tennessee. These are the reasons why, if I could do a duet with anyone in history it would be Elvis.

If I had a kids show I would make it about the superhero Gabe-Man. I would take down bad guys and be super awesome. But it would be age appropriate unlike the blogs that the show is based on. And on his off time his alter ego Gabe would teach kids the alphabet, math, and other stuff like that kids need to know. Gabe-Man would teach kids not to depend on technology and to be active so they don't get glued onto there electronics. He would also teach kids if there's a bad guy you need to beat him up. He would kinda be like Johnny Karte from Parks and Rec but a super hero. Gabe-Man would also have a side kick who does almost everything wrong and Gabe-Man would have to say "That's what you don't do kids.". There would be a segment in the show with Professor Berzinskas who teaches the kids all about English. Every episode Gabe-Man would fight the evil Doctor Luke and they would use what they learned in the show to help Gabe-Man beat Dr. Luke. Gabe-Man and his side kick would have super cool gadgets and stuff that help them wherever they go. Dr. Luke would try to tell the kids to not go to school and that is the main reason why Gabe-Man would stop him

When I looked up and saw Cupid with his bow, I know we were in trouble. He shot Spoony with a love arrow. Spoony looked at the pig near us and fell in love with it. I quickly tackled him but he was to big for me to keep down. I yelled, "Spoony snap out of it!". He ran on all fours to the pig but I was faster than him even when he runs regular. I talked him again. This time I made sure I kept him on the ground. Then I knew what I had to do. I punch him in the face and he woke up from Cupids love spell. Then I felt a pinch on my bottom. That palm tree looked really attractive. I ran to it ready to profess my love to that amazing plam tree, the only thing that I loved in the world. Unfortunately I was running to fast and didn't put on the brakes fast enough. I remember running into my love at full speed then seeing black. I woke up and Spoony was there. I said "What happened?". He said "Cupid shot us with his arrows so I killed him." I was astonished. I said "Spoony you just killed the God of Love." Then Spoony replied, "Oh well."

If I could meet any famous person I would want to be soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo. I would want to be him because he is the best soccer player in the world, he plays for my favorite club, and he is my favorite soccer player just to name a few reasons. Ever since I even knew what the clubs meant in soccer I have admired him. He knows so many cool tricks and skills with the soccer ball. He could show me a few. I have always wanted a signed jersey of his and meeting him could make that dream come true. I could tell all my soccer friends about it and it would be a crazy opportunity. Depending on the circumstances he could even take me on the pitch of the Santiago Bernebeu. Maybe I could even see him in action for the second time! One of my life long questions is how soccer players keep there hair in such a perfect position during there whole match and he could also answer that and many more questions I have for him, like how nervous do you get before every game and how do you cope with it? These are just a few reason why if I could meat anyone famous it would be CR7.
One country that practices individualism is the country that we live in, USA. I believe that individualism is good and I think that it is good that the USA practices it. There are many good senarios that can happen that reflect the idea that is individualism. One reason why it is good is that people need to make personal desicons that help them instead of a group making them that might hurt the individual. If a person is always in a society that makes desicons for the person how are they going to survive if they are put into a country or place that practices individualism? They would be at a severe disadvantage. These are just a few senarios of individualism.
One country that practices collectivism is North Korea. I do not think that collectivism is a good idea but it does have some good features to it. If everything is used and off at the same time it can help same money for the group. Sometimes people don't know what is best for them so they need a group to show them the way. I think another good reason why collectivism is a good idea because everyone is equal to one another.
I strongly thing that individualism is the better than collectivism because people are free to make there own decisions and that is an important part of life. If you are in a collectivism society you can be working harder than every one but still get paid the same amount as a person that works for an hour a week. Collectivsm is seriously flawed. It has never worked in any country and has brought many to ruins.
