Being awoken by something licking my face is not the best morning call.
Peeling open my eyes, I realised the panting, licking animal that woke me up was my dog Tilly.
"Morning, girl!" I greeted with a smile while stroking her soft fur.
Tilly is a Cocker Spaniel/Poodle mix. I 've had her for the past two years and I love her more than anything! She is one of my most loyal of friends.
"Well, I need to tidy up my flat, draw a bit then get ready for the party," I planned my day, half talking to Tilly, half talking to myself.
After an hour of constant tidying, I was finally able to sketch something.
Sitting at my desk, I got out my pencils and sketch book. As soon as my pencil hit that paper, everything seemed to melt away. Drawing whatever

"Yes, what 's so funny about that? Juliet is a popular name," I replied, becoming defensive.
"Juliet is a lovely name. What 's funny is that my name is Romeo. And you are really pretty."
Disregarding Romeo 's compliment, I began feeling really stupid. I just nearly blew my top for nothing.
Choosing to change the subject I said, "So you get the 'are you looking for your Juliet '?"
"All the time. I 'm guessing you get the 'are you looking for your Romeo '?"
Nodding in agreement, I took a sip of my drink. Taking in part of his face in detail. I was able to see certain facial features I wasn 't able to see before.
For instance, his blue eyes had speckles of gold and he had a mop of brown hair that seemed to fall perfectly without gel.
"Take a picture, it 'll last longer," Romeo teased.
Sticking my tongue out at him, I felt a buzz in my pocket. Taking it out I saw that it was a message from my brother. I haven 't had one of those since my birthday seven months ago.
"Woah woah woah! I was joking! That isn 't creepy at all."
I rolled my eyes before tucking my phone back in my purse.
"I just got a message,

William Shakespeare composed the tragedy Romeo and Juliet in the 16th century. This play vividly portrayed the banned love between the heirs of two families. Spoiler alert, Romeo and Juliet killed themselves in the end. Every person in Romeo and Juliet held responsibility for their death. Among all of the characters, Friar Lawrence and Capulet were major catalysts of the casualties. Let's not forget Romeo, the one that started it all.
Juliet asks Romeo to change his name and disobey his father, but if he will not, she will change hers. Romeo and Juliet break from the...
After Romeo’s breakup with Rosaline, Benvolio and Romeo end up reading a letter stating that the capulets are having a party. After hearing this, Romeo’s friends decide to go to the party in attempt to cheer up Romeo. Upon arriving at the party, Romeo spots juliet, falling in love with her at first sight. “...Did my heart love till now? forswear it, sight! For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night”

Many people think that society has changed so much over the years. That the way that children act, has taken a turn for the worst, but in reality children are learning from their ancestors. Children are lying to their parents, they are sneaking out at night to be with a boy that is “the one”, children are going back into the age of Shakespeare. In the play “Romeo and Juliet” which was written by William Shakespeare in 1597, there are two teenagers, Romeo and Juliet, who fall in love with each other. These two teenagers try to do everything that they can to live the rest of their lives together, except their families despise each other, so there is no way that they can live the rest of their lives together. So, many people believe that the way that our children are growing up today is taking away the fun parts of their childhood. However in this play Juliet did many of the things that teenagers are trying to do now. Children and sometimes adults now need to realize how your actions not only affect you but also the people around you, you also need to think about the consequences of the actions you make. At first Juliet falls in love at first sight with Romeo, then she takes a potion, which causes her family to think she is dead, and then how Friar Lawrence helps Juliet with the scheming, which shows how adults have to think about others as well.
Romeo says he is only going to rejoice in splendor of his own. Romeo believes he will only ever be in love with Rosaline. But, what he doesn’t know is he will soon fall in love with a girl named Juliet at the ball.
However, we can safely conclude that his ‘love’ for Rosaline was only a passing infatuation as she pales to insignificance when he sets eyes on Juliet. The language he us...
Juliet can do is say that she will meet him and see what she thinks of
