Much ado about nothin

I thought that the play much ado about nothing was really great. I love how they modernized it to appeal to teenagers more, because they wanted us to understand the story better. I did understand the story better, I understood about the pain and love that people went through.

The story to me was about trust and love. When the man didn’t believe his lover when she said that she didn’t cheat on him when she didn’t, he didn’t believe her. I thought that was really wrong for him to do that because he loved her so much and she loved him back, she was set up for this to happen. In the end when he found out that everything was a lie his fiancé was already “dead”. He felt so guilty and so upset he agreed to marry another woman whom in the end ended up to be her.

To me this play was phenomenal, I really understood the story better than I would but it came out really good anyway.

romeo and juliet

As we are reading Romeo and Juliet I notice that Romeo seems to be really confused about how he feels. He says that he is in love with Rosaline but she doesn’t love him back. He says that she is the most beautiful girl in the world but she hath Dianes wit. She never wants to get married nor have children. To him this is torture, he wants her as a lover but she doesn’t.

I think that Romeo is over reacting, I already know about the story I know that when he meets Juliet he instantly falls in love with her. Romeo is being over dramatic; he thinks that his life is over as Rosaline does not love him. I think he should just get over her because he knows that it’s not going to happen. Romeo is just being a over dramatic person not realizing that he still has his whole life ahead of him and that he is going to meet someone new.

Water for Elephants

I have just finished the book Water for elephants. It was about a man in his 90s who is remembering back to the time when he carried water for elephants at the circus. When he was 19 his parents died in an accident. He was so upset he ran away and found a traveling circus the Benzini brothers’ most spectacular show on earth. It was in the 1930s when this all took place. He met a girl that he fell in love with instantly. But she was married to another man. He was a very violent man. as time went by they got closer and closer. And when her husband beat her one day she left him and went to the man that was in love with her. In the end they ended up together until she died 50 years later.

       I thought that this book was really addicting I couldn’t take my eyes off of the screen (was read on kindle) it was a very heartfelt and loving book. As this man is dying of old age he is remembering the days when his life ended and began again. I felt like I was in the story the entire time as I kept reading it. This book was so good I recommend it to everyone.

Sonnet #1

The way his smile can light up the night

The way his rough beard feels against my skin

The way his eyes can twinkle in the light

The way that his style is always in

The divorce that changed my life forever

Between my parents I could never see

He was so strong and never said never

As strong as a mountain and as a tree

I wish he had never left me alone

He left me to live with somebody else

I really miss the smell of his cologne

Everyday I sit and think to myself

Being a daughter without her father

Is just like a river without water

What happens to poem

What happens to life when we die?

        Are we buried six feet under?

        Are our ashes spread over the sea?

        Do we end up with god in heaven?

        Or the fire hole we call hell?

        Are we even as missed as we should be?

Are we really dead?

Or living again?

poetry is

Poetry is...

your life

you can do anything you want 

with 

poetry

poetry is emotions

you have for another

or anything else

poetry is life

you can create it

or even kill it

poetry is your safety zone

the one place where you can be

you

Paul Cezanne

The murder of a woman                                                                         

the shame that it brought                                                                  

there at night                                                                                       

so they wouldn’t get caught                                                                                         

He must have been angry                                                                                   

to paint like this                                                                                                  

or is he keeping a secret          

What is the secret                                                                                            

that we need to find                                                                                             

to bad he’s dead                                                                                                  

to bad that he died

Paul Cezanne was born in Aix-en Provence in 1839. He came from a wealthy family. He always loved poetry and art; he also loved nature and based a lot of his paintings on nature. He used lots of colors and used most of his free time to paint. His best friend Emily Zola also loved poetry. His father didn’t encourage him to paint but wanted him to be a lawyer of work at his bank. Paul studied being a lawyer and worked in his father’s bank to make him happy but it didn’t make Paul happy at all. His mom eventually convinced his father to let him go to France to paint with real painter. When Paul went he was an outcast. People didn’t like his paintings but he didn’t listen. His father knew that he was going to fail in France. Eventually Paul’s paintings went from nature to dark and angry. Later Paul Cézanne died in 1906.

One of my favorite paintings from him is The Murder. It shows his true anger. I think that this painting was based on how angry he was at someone in his life or at himself. This painting has lots of dark and sorrowful colors in it. When I look at it, it reminds me of all the times I was mad at someone in my life, no matter who it was. I also think this painting shows that anger he has on his father for not encouraging him.
