Romeo and Juliet: Premonitions

I have never had a dream like that, that I can remember. If i did have a dream like that I would try to stay away from the place it happened and change my plans for that day. But if i couldn't avoid it i would try to see it coming and try to change it as it happens. If it did happen without my noticing i would have to just take it.

In Romeo and Juliet they is probably many times when this happens. Also in a lot of movies these days have premonitions.

Shakespearean Stories

A movie i have seen that would fit this subject is a 10 things I hate about you. This movie is based on the play " The Taming of a Shrew" By Willam shakespere. The name of the school they went to was Padua which is the name of the city the play was set in. Also The younger sister wants to date a guy but can't because her sister dated the same guy and had bad experiences. so her dad won't let her date till her older sister does.

Many directors today are very influnced by Shaksheres plays. Many people don't realize that movies today are based off Shakespere.

Anticipating Shakespeare

When we started watching the movie I couldn't.t really understand what they were talking about and i had to sort of translate in my head. But when we grew closer to the end of the movie I started being able to understand them faster and More clearly. The way they talk is hard to follow but when i pick out some of the words so its a basic sentence i can understand them quiet easily.

I really don't know anything at all about Romeo And Juliet. All I really know is that Romeo dies in the end. But i like it will be kinda fun to learn about. Since i don't know any thing about it. I probably wont enjoy the next two months of class as much as you will since your and English teacher and all but i will enjoy it to some extent and try to make it fun and exciting but since your teaching it probably should be SOOOOOOO much fun. HAHA
