"I don't understand why Juliet is hesitant to wed Paris. I was younger than she, when i concieved her, and I turned out great. I did not lose anything but gain money, and power; I have the best parties and I have enough money to last myself a lifetime. I greatly appreciate my life filled with parties, and luxeries."
"So why does my daughter not want to wed such a handsome and wealthy man, Paris? Can she not see what fortune it will bring her and our family, she has nothing to lose exactly like me. He is handsome, and she is a beautiful gentlewoman just like I am. She would only make him complete. Doesn't Juliet want to live a divine, elegant life of Status and wealth, what more can she want?"
"Maybe she actually longs for true love... I wonder what would have happened if I was not married and beared juliet at such a young age. I never truly longed for love but now that I think of it, I'm not sure if I am truly happy with Mr. Capulet. I am happy that I have luxerious parties but what if I actually have a problem. Deep down all the drinking, partying and drugs are what I use to cover up my desire for true hapiness. I just want her to be happy, I wouldn't want her to end up like me but this is important to her father."
All this thinking is giving me a headache, I need some damn medicine. Where is my Nurse..."
I like your last sentence, it's funny!
ReplyDeleteGreat post, one word "Gold-digger"
ReplyDeleteNice post
ReplyDeleteGreat job! I could tell right away that this was Lady Capulet. I think you did a really good job of talking from her point of view and expressing her ideas on love!
ReplyDeletegood job! you're word choice was great, really sounded like it was her talking!
ReplyDeleteAgree with all of the comments… but there is something hidden underneath every gold-digger gangsta wifey that they won't admit… or maybe don't even understand themselves. Is she really happy? I mean really… deep in her heart and soul? DOes she love her husband? Does she really NEVER wish there was something more? That she had a choice? Another thought… why do people abuse drugs and alcohol? What might her reason for being drunk all the time be?
ReplyDeleteLoved how you wrote Lady Capulet's pov on love, it was very realistic!
ReplyDeleteAlright Neuf! I'll definitely take that into consideration never really thought of exploring her more interpersonal emotions and thoughts! I'll definitely change it up
ReplyDeleteGreat post! You can tell that Juliet's views on love is completely different to her mother's.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree! I really think that lady Capulet drinks and parties to forget about her real struggles.
