Last night Juliet and I consummated
our marriage. Oh it was the best night of my life. Nothing has ever felt so
good that to be with my wife. She was not even mad at me for my awful mistake
of killing Tybalt. It felt like I was in a dream. The night was so lovely, but
you know what they say, all good things come to an end. By the breaking of
morning I had to hurry out of Verona and head to Mantua. Saying goodbye to the
lovely Juliet was the hardest thing I have ever had to do in my entire life. I
felt like I was being stabbed in the heart. Our last kiss we had before I left
is one that I will never forget. Now I am aimlessly roaming around dreadful
Mantua. There is nothing here but a bunch of poor filthy people. I do not even
know what to do during the days. All I find myself doing is thinking about
Juliet and wondering what she is doing and when I will see her next, or even IF
I will see her again. What an awful feeling.

The Best Worst Night of My Life
Today has been a wonderfully
dreadful day. I’ll tell you what I mean by that. It was so wonderful in the
beginning of the day because…you’ll never guess…Juliet and I got married!!! The
Friar agreed to marry us!! Isn’t that spectacular! However, just after we got
married some dreadfully tragic events happened. Mercutio got into a fight with
Tybalt (who was actually looking for me to fight) and Tybalt ended up killing
Mercutio. Sure Mercutio may have asked for it, but NOBODY messes with my friends.
Oh Mercutio, Mercutio. He is dead! Oh no oh no…I was so outraged that because
of my anger, I determinedly went to fight Tybalt to get payback and I ended up
killing him. What have I done?! I killed someone. Me, Romeo, I sent somebody to
their death. I caused them to die. What wretched thing have I done? Oh I will
never forgive myself. Of course, due to me killing Tybalt, who is my beloved
wife Juliet’s cousin, I am now banished. BANISHED! My world is completely over.
I have the worst fate. I am fate’s victim. I am to leave for Mantua. What will
I ever do? I will never see my love again, even though I am sure she despises
me after killing her cousin. Oh I just do not know what has become of me…

Is this a dream, or real life?
Act 1; Scene 5
Oh what a wonderfully magnificant night!!! Mercutio, Benvolio, a couple other guys, and I arrived at the Capulets' party and, at first, boy was I unwilling to dance or have fun. However; suddenly I saw the brightest light in the whole universe shinning, even brighter than all of the lights and torches in the room. I could not take my eyes off of her. I starred at her for so long that even Tybal noticed and tried to have me kicked out of the party but Lord Capulet, what a nice guy, he told Tybalt I could stay. That's when it all happened. I went up to the fine lady and used some of my swift, romantic pick up lines. I kissed her the first time and even after that...you'll never guess......she kissed me back!! Oh what a marvolous moment! She is so gorgeous. Even her words and the way she speaks so maturely is gorgeous. Everything was so perfect until the unthinkable happened. When I spoke to some old lady, she told me that this lady who I have fallen in love with is named Juliet. As in the daughter of Lord and Lady Capulet. As in my enemies. Fate has me doomed. I immediatly left the party.
Act 2; scene 2
As I was walking, pondering what had just happened I broke away from Mercutio and Benvolio. I could hear their distant yells of rude remarks, making fun of my emotional love life. Little do they know that it no longer involves Rosaline but rather Juliet. I was walking down a path and I heard the voice of a young girl. I looked around and found Juliet on the balcony of her room. Oh! The things she was saying about me. She said she was in love with me!! I didn't know whether to stop her and let her know I was there or if I should just keep listening. I eventually revealed myself and she was very startled. I could tell she was emberrassed that she had pored out her emotions about me and I had heard all of them. Oh but it does not even matter because I love Juliet! She is the love of my life! We talked for the whole night and confessed our love for each other. Eventually, when it was time to part ways, Juliet told me she would send someone with the details to our exchanging of vows and our mairrage. I could not be more thrilled. Juliet is amazing. I feel so much affection for her I cannot even begin to describe it. My divine beloved...Juliet!

A party?
Act 1; scence 2
I still do not know what I am to do with myself. I love Rosaline more than anything. I am so upset. Uhh...all I wish to do is be alone and dwell on the fact that the goddess does not love me however; Meructio and Benvolio, Mercutio especially, are forcing me to go to this party tonight. You see, I was asked to read some invite list for an iliterate servant from the Capulets and it was the list of invites to the masquerade party at the Capulets' house. Mercutio thought it was brilliant for us to go. He hoped it would get my mind of Rosaline but I know it won't. Nothing will!! This party will only end badly. Besides, we, being Montagues, should not even be there, it basically just means trouble. Then again Mercutio is not one to stear away from trouble. I do not really feel like being social but I guess I will just go with my friends.

Fight after fight after fight
Act 1; scene 1
The Montague family and the Capulet family are always fighting. Coming from the Montagues, I oppose the Capulets. Tybalt, a Capulet, is particularly annoying. He is alsways trying to pick fights. Even when Benvolio tries to keep the peace Tybalt draws his weapon and begins a quarell. I usually stay away from the fighting, especially now since I cannot get Rosaline to love me. Personally, I tend to forget the reason why the Montagues and Capulets fight in the first place. All I know is that if we do not stop with all the violence then next time there is a fight, Prince Escalus has threatened to kill us. Today, there was an encounter with some Capulet and Montague servants. Supposedly Benvolio tried to keep Mercutio calm but we all know Mercutio loves to fight and any chance he gets to fight the Capulets he will. Benvolio only drew his weapon to stop the others from fighting however; of course Tybalt took it as an engagment to fight. I was not really there to witness the fights because the last thing I wanted to do was deal with a bunch of annoying servants going at it over some stupid rivalry. I mean, some of us actually have problems and mature things we have to deal with...like love.

Rosaline, Rosaline
Act 1; scene 1
Today, or even this entire week, have been awful. I have never experienced such pain and agony. I am in love with Rosaline, a goddess. She is the most beautiful women in the entire universe. She glows like the sun in the sky, like the twinkling stars in the night. She has beautiful hair and a stunning body. I'm so in love however; she refuses to love me back. She claims she wants to become a nun therefore she cannot marry. I do not know what to do with myself. Mercutio and Benvolio, my two good friends, just do not understand what this heartbroken feeling is like. They constantly make fun of me but I cannot help it. They keep following me around and I just want to be left alone. The constant jokes they make are beyond upsetting. Do they not realize that I am going through a really, really, really hard time. I have no idea how I am going to get over this...I will never love someone the way I love Rosaline. I cannot bear the thought of moving on without her. What in the world am I going to do?
