1- Prompt B
I hear lots of people talking about how their dreams become a reality and how it's creepy (not specific to any person). It's very similar to the situation in the book. In scene 1, Romeo describes a dream he has where he is dead and Juliet kisses her. After that he is revived from it. Later, in scene 3, the exact dream happens, with the exception of Romeo being revived. Romeo kills himself with a potion and Juliet wakes up to find both Paris and Romeo dead in the tomb. She kisses Romeo in hopes of getting the same potion Romeo got but in the end she stabbed herself with a dagger.
2- Prompt D
"O churl, drunk all, and left no friendly drop"(p231). I found this quote interesting for the words used. Juliet says churl, which means selfish one. It makes nearly no sense for Juliet to call Romeo selfish for drinking all of the potion. Also, saying friendly drop is ironic; the poison is deadly, and completely the opposite of friendly. For her situation it could be "friendly" since she wants to die, and having a deadly potion would be helpful.
I also agree that the quote, "O churl, drunk all, and left no friendly drop," is very interesting. Romeo was not selfish for drinking all of the potion because he really thought that Juliet was dead. And the poison is definitely not friendly.
ReplyDeleteI don't think that having dreams come true is creepy. All you really need to do is strive for it.
