Romeo’s Journal

This day has been filled with terror, rage, and loss. All I have wanted was for peace between the Capulets and the Montagues. Today when I tried to make peace, things only got worse. I tried to calm down Tybalt, but it ended in my dear friend, Mercutio’s death. I was so caught up in anger and rage, that I had slain Tybalt, Juliet’s cousin. I fear what is going to happen to me now. I have just killed someone of a family I had just been married into,  because of a stupid feud between our families. Better yet, Juliet, my wife, will find out how Tybalt died. After us only being married for an hour, I have already disrespected her family.

I don’t know how to come back from this. I don’t know if Juliet will forgive me. I have already lost so much, my home, my family, my friend, but I fear I will lose much more. I fear I may lose Juliet. I’m sure she won’t forgive me, who would. For it was my fault Mercutio and Tybalt have fallen. Everything bad that has happened today was my fault. Now, only an hour after getting married I’ve upset everyone. But most of all I’ve upset Juliet. I don’t know if she can forgive me, I wouldn’t forgive myself….so why would she?

I was hoping for the future to hold fortunes but now, I’m not so sure. I was hoping for our families to come together and solve our differences. I was hoping for finally some peace in Verona. But now with what I have done, I don’t know what will happen.  I don’t know if I will ever see Juliet again, as much as I desire too, I don’t know if she’ll want to see me. With that, I don’t know what my consequences will be for killing Tybalt. Will I even be able to see Benvolio again? Only time will tell what awaits me.

What will my family think of me? Will they still love me? What will the Capulets think of me? What will Verona think of me? But most what will the Juliet think of me? Will she love me again? Did Juliet ever love me? I may never know. I don’t know if I will be able to live with myself, knowing that Juliet doesn’t love. With everyone in Verona maybe I shall go into hiding until everyone forgets. Will anyone forget? What will the Prince have to do with it?

I don’t know what to do. I am still unaware if I have a punishment. I’m still processing what has just happened, and just after marrying the love of my life, I ruined it. Now I just have to wait to hear what the prince has for me and I have to wait to see what Juliet thinks of me. I do fear that Juliet may not forgive me, after all, if Juliet can’t forgive me for killing Tybalt, would anyone forgive me?

 

B6 – Independent Novel Reading

I have read the book Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets, Written by J.K Rowling. Harry Potter has just started his second year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Harry Potter and his best friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger are facing evil once again, with something going around the school petrifying people.
This book is a really great book because It can go from funny to serious, to all out fascinating. Like in the original Harry potter, Harry is at his Aunt and Uncles for summer break with his cousin, Dudley, who all treat him like a worthless nobody because they are embarrassed by him being a wizard. The story leads to his best friend Ron coming to take him to his house in a flying car. At Ron’s Harry has an amazing time. He gets to work on his Hogwarts homework. He gets to spend time with other wizards and is overall happy he is back in the wizard world.
Once the time comes to go to Hogwarts he can’t get into the train station. With this, he and Ron decided to take the flying car and break the rule of underage wizards. He and Ron go to Hogwarts and this is where I think it gets interesting. People over the course of the year get petrified from something evil lurking the school. Harry, Ron and Hermione are taken on a wild adventure to find out what’s going on around the school. On this adventure, they find plenty of clues like the chamber has been open, to a mysterious diary.
In my opinion, I love this book. It has a fantasy, humour and is just all around a good book for a Harry potter fan. I think J.K. Rowling has done an excellent job on the classic Harry Potter because of the style as well. It has all things Harry potter should have.
I just love the Harry Potter Stories. They make me want to make predictions about the ending, like if Harry Potter finds the evil, or just what ends up happening. J.K Rowling is just overall a great author if you are looking for a fantasy to read I would recommend Harry Potter because I rate this a 4 out of 5.
