Romeo and Juliet Final Assignment

  Romeo and Juliet Final Assignment
     "Romeo and Juliet" by William Shakespeare is all about two young people who fall in love at the wrong time, at the wrong place. Although they have everything against them, they keep fighting too keep their love going and strong. Sticking together throw anything and against anything and anyone. The Hate of the people they risked. They both fought until the impossible. In our point of view it may have not been the best happy ending, but maybe just maybe in their point of view it was the only happy ending they would have wanted. Away from everyone, away from all the hate they have gotten.
        One of the main reasons why Romeo and Juliet were not able to be together was because Romeo was a Montague` and Juliet was a Capulet."My only love sprung from my only hate", Juliet was the main enemy of Romeo and Romeo Family. Romeo is the only son of Juliet`s people enemy. If found out about them. They would mostly appose against the idea. They would not want peace, cause they both have been fighting/ arguing for years now. These were just young people who probably didn't know what they were talking about. 
  Another reason why Romeo and Juliet being together was more difficult was because Romeo was supposedly a killer. He has murdered Juliets cousin. Juliets mother wanted Romeo to pay for what he ha done to her nephew  she wanted Romeo dead and out of the town. She got Romeo banned. Even though she probably didn't know that Romeo and Juliet were technically dead. If Romeo was ever found in town they had a right to kill him, an eye for an eye.
             
        Juliet was also supposed to marry Paris, a Capulet  One of her kind/people. A boy that her mother had approved of, a boy that her mother saw was good enough for her. She was arranged to marry him, but she was already married. To a guy that her mother wanted dead. . A boy that her mother hated with everything she had. Romeo was the only son of their enemy. 
  If I was Juliet I would have first thought of the pros and the cons of being with Romeo. Was she (I) Really in love  Or did I just think I was. Was I too young to think about love. People now have different ways of expressing their feelings , They may not all kill themselves but they do , do the impossible to stay with each other and keep their love going on. Their are other people in the whole world that I could love/ have fallen in love with. They were still at young  age, anything could have happened if they had decided to not kill themselves.

                   Romeo and Juliet is all about taking a risk. Taking a risk with someone who you think may be your everything at a point. On the other hand of thing's don't turn out the way you and that person had planned, you would be losing a lot. You will be losing everyone. Or she would have lost everyone. But she made her choice. It was her decison. What ever happens next to her, happens because everything she chose led up to that moment. But on the other hand Are her choices worth everything shes doing?
           Romeo and Juliet arent aloud to see each other, why? Well becuase Romeo is accused of killing Juliets cousin. Her mother wants Romeo dead, she wants him to pay for the death of her nephew. Juliet mom also got him banned from the city/ town. If they found him they had to kill him. She got married to Romeo before all of this. She didnt know that Romeo was capable of any of this.Maybe he wasnt, maybe this wasnt Romeos true colors true personality, maybe this were just feelings  he got when they killed one of his friends/ family. He didnt mean any of this. This was just his angry side showing.
           Juliet was technically married to a killer a murder after he was pronced killer of Tyblt. If people really got to know every detail of Juliet back then, they would have gave Juliet lots of Hate. She would have brought lots of disgraced to her family, to her last name, to her people. The Montague might take this as an  opportunity to say they are better than the Capulets. The people would blame Juliet for this, Her mother and Father might not want to protect her from the people they would have let her take on all of the hate. So she didnt just risked her life, her people would have also payed the consequences for her actions.
        In the end, Juliet did pay the consequences of her action. She died. Or Well she killed herself. Her and Romeo both died in the end. Although their people hate for each other may have not, the hate  of others ended their lifes even with them not knowing it. The strong hate of people not wanting them together and people not having faith and not supporting their relationship ended their lifes little by little.

Silvia Soriano                      "Teen Depression: A Guide for Parents "            April 17, 2013

                  People always say how this generation is messed up, how we the new generation is a joke. How we are worse than people before us. That some of us are crazy, we get judged.  Many of us go through puberty at a earlier age than people in the 90`s and 80`s. Were barely 14 or 15 when it happens, we go through that cause we feel lonely, we feel left out, we get hurt. Mostly our parents are the last person we turn to. Cause they just dont, or we think they dont understand cause we are different. So What do we do? We go on with our lifes, faking a smile and pretending everything is okay but than we cant anymore. We hit our breaking point. Which is just worst. We fall into a depression which leads us into worst stuff; like drugs, suicide thoughts and alcohol. all this happens cause we chose not to talk. 
           Parents dont normally notice when we hit puberty, they think that its no big deal. Its just hormones, they went though it, they came out fine so their kids will have to also come out fine. All people aren't the same, and just because their different doesn't make them odd, weird or crazy, it makes them a human being.  Acting out is part of this, parents assume they know everything and that when their kids are acting out and having mood swings it because their on bad things, like drugs and alcohol , they right away assume that their doing something bad. Than kids dont want to trust their parents because all the parents ill do is judge them, and they dont want that.
            All kids in our generation have stress, in everything. In school and social life with family. Adding hormones and puberty to the situation doesnt make it better. In society you can never please anyone. If you skinny your anorexi, if your smart your a nerd, if your happy your fake, if your  sad your emo. Its hard trying to fit in. Parents they dont really notice until you do something bad or dangerous. If kids notice that their parents dont care about what they do, they will lose motivation in life. They will no longer care about what they do, what they say, they will lose hope in life. Which leads to suicide thoughts.  

         People still ask why? Why do we do the things we do. Why do we think of suicide when we have so much to live for? We have so much to look foreword to. Cause we have no one their for us, No one is their for us. We are lonely, by ourselfs, we want to be loved and wanted , we want help. Help from our parents.
