Dissecting Romeo and Juliet

Ok, I have come up with some more reasons why I think Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare is pathetic.

1- what is the point? I honestly cannot see the point of Romeo and Juliet being a tragedy and not a romance, it is so clearly a romance story, but apparently not

2- The language. No one can undecided the language, not unless you are an Elizabethan language expert or if you are just one of those people who pretend to understand it but when asked what it means just go "ummmmmmmmmm"

3- Romeo. He is soo pathetic. One minute he's in love with Rosaline and the next, he's in love and married to Juliet. Pathetic, shallow loser

4- Juliet. She starts off as if she is going to be all incontrol and I won't loose my virginity until we're married- which is probably why Romeo asks her to marry him the day after they meet.

5-The Nurse. Hummm, not much to say about her, but I still think she's kind of pathetic and she just dumps Juliet when Capulet tells Juliet she will marry Paris or she will no longer be his daughter. It's always nice to know who you can rely on.

That's all for now, sorry if you are a HUGE fan of Shakespeare or if you love Romeo and Juliet, but when you've been forced to write an essay about it, dissecting almost every single scene and Act, you sort of develop a hate for it.

If you have any views on this, comment me! I'm open to your opinions!

Love you all

Belle and Sebastian

I Know Where The Summer Goes - Lyrics by Belle and Sebastian

I know where the summer goes
When you're having no fun
When you're under the thumb
I know where the summer dwells
If your underarm smells
And your kitchen looks like hell

I know where the summer goes
If you're scraping a pot, and your head is hot
Put your head down, put your thumbs up girl
With the smell of hot desk
And the glitter of your step
He was right, he's the upcoming guru of the city
No one told the city councillors

I know, you can tell me againI've got my mobile phone
Full of silicon chips
No one likes a smart arse
But I've seen a pattern emergeI will race you up the hill
Where the boy who made records out of postcard messages
And flowering cherries rain on kids like you

Look twice at the kid with the crimped
And overheated hair
They ran a book on his looks
Odds on was the noble pose and
The denim hard riff of the Irish Troubadour
But the boy came from nowhere to
Steal the hearts of lassies in the lavvies of the club tonight

Woo, i love the lyrics to the song! I came acroos it a moment ago when I was looking on Belle and Sebastian's site, which is very useful if you want to know the lyrics of thier songs, you just go on

www.belleandsebastian.co.uk

Life is so good today! Came Fourth in Interhouse netball second lesson, but i'm not REALLY that bothered. I am SUCH a good Centre!

Wet Saturday

Well, that was fun. Randomly deleting my entrees and leaving a comment on PennyLane's blog, which was nice and no offence Zara, but it's nice to know someone else took the time to read my pathetic blog.

Feeling lonely today, after being down town in the rain with Zara all morning and being forced to do my English Coursework essay on Romeo and Juliet, well, that just made me feel sad. I REALLY don't like Romeo and Juliet,

a) because Romeo is a self obsessed, grade 1 asshole and

b) because Juliet is soo stupid to marry some person she hasn't even known for a whole day, and who's birthday she probably doesn't even know and then to go and kill herself over him? It's just soooooo pathetic. The only good bit is when you have finished it because then you don't have to read it!

Mother's day tomorrow, which reminds me, i had better go and wrap up mum's prezzie and gt ready for beed before i fall asleep on the laptop. I'v been running of caffine, well tea, since i got home and i think it's all been used up, so my energy levels are droping rapidly. Does ANYBODY know what calories are? I was listening to some women go on and on about fat inakes and calories on the radio a moment ago and i'm like 'what on earth are calories mum' and mum goes 'ummmmmm' so i took it that she doesn't know what calories are, so if anybody does, enlighten me! I'm eager to know.

Happy Mother's day everyone!
