My favorite part in Brother Where Art Though is when the two men wake up after they were seduced by the sirens. My reasoning for this is because they thought that the third man was turned into a frog but he really was taken in the middle of the night. He was whipped and questioned on where the other two men where at or going.

Gone on a fishing trip is like stitting in church, as to sitting and listening to the wind, birds and with a line in the water, waiting for a bite, or sitting listening to a pastor just waiting for time to end, bored, but just like being sick with nothing to do, cooped up in your house. In the end your still bored waiting for something.

Video

My video is going a little slow, because i could not get with the person i orriginaly planed on making one with. So no i am going to use my family in my "Of Mice and Men" Trailer. I will be using my step dad as Lennie, my mom as Curley's wife, also i will be using my 7 year old brother as Curley. My reasoning for this is because things just so happened to go wrong on the day i had to meet with my partner,but then i could not.
The reason i chose my step dad as Lennie, is becasue he is about 6"6 and is the tallest in our household, just like Lennie is realy tall. Also i will be using my mom as Curley's wife because she is the only girl/women in my house. I will be using my little brother as Curley because he is the shortest, and i sorta want to exagerate the misshaps between Curley and Lennie, in the book.

I chose this video because it is younger people acting in the whole play and it also has parts of the prolauge in it. This video in my opinion is a good video if you were showing a group of people, who has never read the book, what the play is about.

Picture :l


I chose this picture because it reminds me of the scene when Romeo finds Juliet talking to her self. Also it reminds me of why it would be hard for Romeo to get up to see Juliet in her home.
This picture also seems like a house of royalty or belongs to a rich family just like Romeo and Juliet were.

Act 2

In act two of Romeo and Juliet, i found that they decided to get married after knowing eachother for two days. I think this is very odd, because they no nothin about eachother then they are good lookin, and are good kissers. Also i think that Romeo isnt in true love just wants in her pants. Now Juliet on the other hand, i think she fell in love at first sight, also wants a way to get away from Paris. If they tget married, I think that the parents strife would still be there and the parents would basicall make it very hard for Romeo and Juliet to live.

If this situation were to ever come to me, i think i would try to get to no my Juliet before i took actionl. I would want to no if she is part of my enemy before i kiss her. But if i were to decide to marry her before i knew her i think that i would want to go away from our parents for at least a year or so before i came back and they saw me and the chick hiched. Well i am glad i have never been in this type of situation and hope i never will be in a situation when our parents hate eachother.

Preminitions

When my brother was about 14 he and my mom were movin to Tacoma from Bozeman, Montana. They were on their way there, he was asleep in the car, he had a very vivid dream about our grandpa, our mom, my brother Tyler and I. We were all sitting in our house, grandpa walked through the hallway, looked O.K. and happy. Then our mom came out of her bedroom, throwing something at our grandpa. Tyler freaked on mom and she just stood there saying nothin without looking at him. Then I came out of our room throwing something at him when he was on the ground unconcious. Tyler freaked out on me and i just stood there. Tyler checked our grandpa's pulse, he was dead.

Tyler wakes up with a horrible gut feeling. He is freakin out telling our mom grandpa's hurt, something is wrong. She says its O.K., its O.K. everything is fine. After she finally gets him calm he says no somethin is wrong someone is hurt in the family and he thought it was our grandpa. Mom just says nothing is wrong everything is fine. They finally get to a hotel and Tyler is not O.K. and very, very nervouse. After he calms down again and is asleep, he has the exact same dream about our grandpa. He wakes the next day with a phone call from our aunt Carline. Saying that our grandpa was in the hospital, because he was doing crystal meth and drinking. Then grandpa got on his Harley Davidson with a girl. Got goin about ninety and ended up crashing. He fell off tearing his shoulder to peaces and was terribly beat up. His bike hit a tree, splitting the tree, as if a chainsaw cut it down. The girl was O.K. but he was rushed to the hospital and they did not no his condition.

"Get Over It." This movie goes along with Shakespeare, because it basically is a love story or star crossed love story. It is based on "A Midsummer Nights' Dream" by Shakespeare. It is about a high school basketball star who is loosing it and with the help of his friends, gets over his ex and falls in love with a different girl.

The writers of this movie were influenced by Shakespeare most likely a hundred percent. The story is quite abit different then "A Midsummer Nights' Dream", but it still in the end has almost the exact meaning to the stories.

Shakespeare

So far in watching A Midsummer Night's Dream, i am beginning to understand the writing a little bit better then before. A few phrases are a little iffy but i think it will be easier after a couple weeks. Also so far my preception has not changed much. I have thought that shakespeare does not help me in my everyday life but when i think about it he has helped us as people out in our every day life. The setting also seams pretty cool and i would have liked to live back in the older days when shakespeare was around. Living today seems like it would be hard to live back then but if we were born at the time it would have been cool. The plot of the movie was something i couldn't pick up on. The characters of the film were kind of entertaining.

My feelings on Romeo and Juliet are almost bassically careless. My reasoning is because I think it is kind of interesting but seams as if it would get boring really quick. I have heard the story but do not know much of the details on it. I think that it will be a good story all in all. The next few months in class may get a littly boring for me.
