PROMPT A
What is happening in the play that reminds you of something that is happening in your life, on TV, in the news, etc. Summarize the issue in the play and in your life in a minimum of 5 sentences.
In scene 5, Juliette's futile attempts to "resist" Romeo from kissing her remind me of my brother's relationship with my cat. Whenever my brother sees my cat looking cute an furry, and wants to pick him up and pet him, he just goes for it, even if the cat is sleeping or was otherwise occupied. This is like how Romeo tries to kiss Juliette's hand despite the fact that she was hinting at him that she did not want that when she tells him "hands are for praying". The cat will then try to tell Riley he does not like what he is doing by scratching at my brother Riley with his paw, but Riley will just go on petting him. This is like Romeo kisses her the second time when she has already resisted, and hints again that she does not want Romeo when she says that her lips just took the sin from his, and he kisses her again anyways. But in both cases, in the end, My cat and Juliette enjoy the petting/the kiss, and remember only good things of their time together and of the other person.
I like how you compared a relationship of your family cat and your brother with Romeo and Juliette.
ReplyDeleteThis is an interesting comparison and definitely makes sense. These two different things work very well together. Why do you think they attempt to resist what is happening?
