Romeo’s Diary-Entry 10

Dear diary,

            When I go to Juliet’s casket, I see her beautiful face. It is tragic news that such a beautiful girl is now deceased. It brings me great sorrow. Life without Juliet is no life at all. I killed off Paris trying to get my peace with her. I shall drink my poison to be with Juliet for eternity in the mystery that is the afterlife.

            Juliet and I did not get to live the life that I had imagined for us. I had hoped to be with her forever. I expected for us to last longer, together and alive. It is crazy how simple life events can alter your life completely. This is unfortunately the path I chose to take, and now it ends here.

Juliet’s Diary-Entry 10

Dear diary,

            Romeo has finally made it to my tomb! He had fought off Paris and even killed him. When I wake up, the first thing I ask is about Romeo’s whereabouts. I later find out that he is dead. I couldn’t believe it at first, but alas it is true. Romeo is dead, and I will be too.

            Romeo was a great husband and I shall join him in death. He drank all the poison he had brought with him and that leaves me with no liquid to drink. It is a good thing I packed a dagger for a reason. I shall join Romeo in death by stabbing myself. We will finally be together like we were destined to be.

-Juliet

 

Romeo’s Diary-Entry 9

Dear diary,

            I had the most wonderful dream about Juliet. I was later given news that my Juliet was dead. Balthasar had came into my room with absolutely no letter from Friar Lawrence and had told me Juliet is dead. My sweet Juliet has died. To fix this nightmare, I had gone out to seek an apothecary to sell me poison.

            Selling poison is illegal, so I have to go to an apothecary for it. When talking to the Apothecary, I noticed he was hesitant to give me the poison. I told him that he was too poor to refuse the money and that he should just take it. I eventually got my poison and was on my way to die with Juliet. It’s a shame it had to come down to this.

Juliet’s Diary-Entry 9

Dear diary,

            It is post-funeral time. I am in a casket waiting for Romeo to come. I have yet to know if Friar Lawrence has delivered the news of me being dead to Romeo. I hope that he is on his way to come rescue me out of this tight casket. It will only be a matter of time before I run out of oxygen and actually die.

            Whatever Friar Lawrence is doing, he better do it quick. The potion is almost wearing out and I can’t stay in here much longer. It is important that he acts fast especially when my life is involved. I can only hope that they’re on their way and coming for me. I hope for a life without worrying about showing my affection towards Romeo.

-Juliet

Romeo’s Diary-Entry 8

Dear diary,

            I still have yet to hear from Friar Lawrence. I have faith that the plan is going smoothly as of this point. I believe in Juliet and that everything is going right. Lately I’ve been thinking of the future. Since there’s not much to do here in Mantua, I’ve resorted to daydreaming. I’ve been thinking a lot lately about Juliet and I ill do once we’re finally together.

            When out plan is executed completely, we will travel the world. We will spend the rest of our lives together having lots of fun and will never need anyone else but ourselves. The dream is to be together until the end of time. I have faith that we will be and that we will enjoy it a lot. We will be our companions.

-Romeo

 

Juliet’s Diary-Entry 8

Dear diary,

            The wedding day is today. I have successfully taken the potion and people now think I’m dead. The plan is playing out perfectly. It brings me joy to think that I will be with Romeo soon and all of my worries will be left behind in Verona. He will be with me soon and we will run away to Mantua.

            Now that people think I’m dead, I will have a funeral. It makes me sad thinking that my family members think I am in fact dead. It is a shame it had to resort to me faking my own death to be with the one I love. It will all be worth it in the end for I will finally be happy with my husband. It is all I ever wanted anyway.

-Juliet

Romeo’s Diary-Entry 7

Dear diary,

            The plan is in action. Juliet is carrying out the plan as I write this entry. I have heard no news from Friar Lawrence. Friar Lawrence is supposed to be the one who carries out the plan and delivers the messages. So far, I haven’t a clue what’s going on.  

            When Friar Lawrence delivers a message, I’ll be updated about what is happening in Verona. Since I’m banished, it makes messages get to me slower. I don’t know if it is going well in Verona or not. For all I know, the plan didn’t work. I’m hoping for the best and that all is going smoothly.

-Romeo

Juliet’s Diary-Entry 7

Dear diary,

            It is almost time for me to marry Paris. I asked for the Nurse and Lady Capulet to leave me alone for me to pray. In reality, I’m taking the potion which is part of the plan. I asked to be left alone for me to drink the potion. In case it doesn’t work, I have a dagger I could use in case I wake up early.

            I can only hope for the best from here. Everyone is preparing the festivities for when I do get married to Paris, which I know won’t happen. I will take the potion and someone will find me unconscious. They will think I’m dead and a funeral will be planned. Little do they know, they are carrying out my plan to see Romeo again.

-Juliet

Romeo’s Diary-Entry 6

Dear diary,

            Juliet and I have come up with a plan to be together after all. There are several steps that we need to take to ensure that we can run away together, away from our family feud. Our family feud is a burden on our relationship, and it is great that we have finally talked things out and found a simple solution. The first step is to convince Juliet’s family that she hates me. That way they will have no suspicions of me being who Juliet is married to.

            The second step is for Juliet to go with what her parents say. He parents will find her distraught thinking about Tybalt’s death while wanting me dead. Her parents’ solution to this dilemma is for her to get married off to count Paris. As much as Juliet will not want to, it is part of the perfect plan so that her and I could be together. This plan is fool-proof and has absolutely no loopholes. It is only a matter of time before Juliet and I are together forever.

-Romeo

Juliet’s Diary-Entry 6

Dear diary,

            Since Romeo has been banished from Verona, he has planned to go to Mantua. Him and I have talked for quite awhile and we have no doubt that we will see each other again in the future. To work this is just another bump in the road that can be easily overlooked. My nurse came to my room and she found me crying. Crying is part of my plan to see Romeo again.

The first step of my plan is to make the Nurse believe that I am grieving over Tybalt, when I am not. I tell the Nurse to let me grieve the loss of my dead cousin and make it seem like I’m mad at Romeo. I told Lady Capulet that I want Romeo dead for what he did to my cousin. All of this is part of my plan for my family members not to expect me liking Romeo, so that him and I can live in happily ever after. My parents are also thinking of marrying me to Count Paris.

-Juliet

Romeo’s Diary-Entry 5

Dear diary,

            I have been vanished from Verona. The reason for my vanishing is for killing a member of the Capulet family. Unfortunately, I have not been given the chance to tell Juliet. I fear that it will be a very long time until I see her again. I have killed a member of her family, and I have yet to know how she would react to this. I have yet to know if she even knows.

             I am very uncertain about the future and what it holds for me. I don't know what kind of burden this will have on my relationship with Juliet. I have been married to Juliet for a very short period of time and it is upsetting that I will not be seeing her for quite a while. I hope she can forgive me and sooner or later realize that what was done had to be done. I can only hope for her forgiveness and that she can take me back.

-Romeo

Juliet’s Diary-Entry 5

Dear diary,

            There has been a fight between Mercutio and Tybalt. Tybalt instigated a fight with Mercutio and used the warm weather as an excuse to continues with his actions. To put an end to the fight, Romeo steps in and tells Tybalt that he cares for him. A fight breaks out between Mercutio and Tybalt, and Romeo tries to stop it. After all of the fighting, I hear that Romeo is banished from Verona.

            When I first hear the news, I’m awe for two reasons: My cousin Tybalt is dead and Romeo has been vanished from Verona. Romeo killed Tybalt which resulted in him getting banished. I am really upset with the ban put on Romeo. I’ve been crying myself to sleep because I’m no longer able to see my husband. I don’t know when I’ll see him again, and my greatest fear right now is that I won’t.

-Juliet

           

Juliet’s Diary-Entry 4

Dear diary,

            I can’t believe I’ve actually gotten married to Romeo. It all happened so fast and I am happy that I did it. Friar Lawrence agreed to marry us and did it in secret. Only a few people know about the marriage and we plan on keeping it low to prevent people from starting yet another fight. We only have one more chance before prince Escalus is bound to execute everyone.

Not very much has happened today, unfortunately. I also haven’t seen or heard from Romeo. I just hope that everything is fine in Verona and that my husband is safe. Everything between the two families has been all right, nothing crazy has been happening. I hope peoples’ reaction to me being wed to Romeo isn’t a big one, but I know it will be. It has been made very clear that I am not to do something that is against the family rules.  

-Juliet

Romeo’s Diary-Entry 4

Dear diary,

            I have been banished from Verona. To explain what was previously stated, a fight broke out between Mercutio and Tybalt. To prevent more fighting, I tried to get in the way of things, but it didn’t work out. I killed Tybalt, and now I’m being banished from Verona. This is punishment for my crime.

            My biggest complex with being banished from Verona is my inability to see Juliet. Juliet is my sun. She brights up everything in this world, and without her here with me, it is dark and gloomy all the time. Juliet is the reason for my happiness and it is a shame that there is a possibility I may never see her again. If I had known that one of the consequences of my actions was never seeing Juliet again, I would’ve handled the situation differently.

Romeo’s Diary-Entry 3

Dear diary,

            I spent yesterday swooning over Juliet. I saw her at the ball and fell in love with her. I had to see her again. I climbed a wall just so that I could see her. She was beautiful. She was talking to herself but eventually saw me and her and I talked for a very long time, until morning. When it was morning, I didn’t want to leave but we both agreed I had to go.

            Her and I exchanged vows. We love each other and plan on marrying. We confessed our love for one another and plan on getting married soon but I fear that in doing so we might cause fighting because we’re supposed to hate each other. I don’t hate her at all. I can see myself being with her forever and ever and I hope to love her until the end of time.                                                                                                                                         -Romeo

Juliet’s Diary-Entry 3

Dear diary,

It was after the masquerade ball. I was minding my own business in my room balcony talking about my feelings for Romeo. I felt like I was alone in the darkness, when I see him come out of one of my bushes. He was watching me, and I felt violated for just a moment, but also happy because he was right there. It was nice seeing him again.

We talked for a long time. We talked until the morning. Romeo and I had exchanged vows and told each other that we loved each other. I meant what I said but I’m scared because I don’t want anyone finding out or else it might cause more fighting and end in execution. We plan to get married and I hope to go through with it. I shall send my Nurse to send him a message and him sending me one back.

Romeo’s Diary-Entry 2

Dear diary,

            I decided to go to the ball because Mercutio told me to do so. I stood at the side. I’m not trying to dance or mingle. That all changed when I saw someone across the room in a beautiful dress. She took my breath away. She was beautiful, everything I could ever ask for. Her name was Juliet and she belonged to the Capulet family. I’m not supposed to like her, but I can’t help it. She’s beautiful.

          Finding out that Juliet is a Capulet is devastating news. I will surely get into much trouble if I continue to pursue what I want with her. There's not much I can do to extinguish this flame of passion for Juliet. Knowing the consequences, however, won't stop me from pursuing what I actually want. I want to be with Juliet. I am in love.

Juliet’s Diary-Entry 2

Dear diary,

There was a masquerade ball today. There was with boy there named Romeo, but he’s a Montague and that upsets me. He’s supposed to be my enemy, but I’m in love with him. I was at the ball when all of a sudden I saw someone that caught my eye. It bothers me that he’s on the opposite side, though, so we can’t be together.

I spent most of my evening watching him intently. I've never been in love until this very moment. I find it hard to believe that someone I've never met is the love of my life, and on top of that, in on the opposing side of the family feud. He kissed my hand and from that moment on I was smitten. It truly is a shame that seeing him would make my parents angry with me and start a whole new riot.

Romeo’s Diary-Entry 1

Dear diary,

            I have heard that there was another fight between the families. Why is everything in life so complicated? I’ve spent most of my days now moping about Rosaline, whom doesn’t love me back. She has shut me down multiple times and I’ve done nothing but mope around. It makes me sad that there has been another fight, and Prince Escalus said himself that if he heard of another fight between the families, it would end with execution.

            I don’t know what they’re always fighting about. There’s nothing to be angry about, just sad. Life can be unfair and they should just leave it at that. Life now is a constant struggle and the feud between us and the Capulets is getting in the way our everyone’s lives and should just be forgotten about. There’s no good reason to fight anymore.

Juliet’s Diary-Entry 1

Dear diary,

Today was another day in the Capulet Family. Usually, we try our best to avoid the Montagues, but today was different. There was a fight outside between Sampson and Gregory. I didn’t see any of it, but I heard about it, and now I’m writing it down. To this day I still do not know what had happened between my family and the Montague’s.

Sometimes I wish that they would just get along. There never is a good reason to fight physically. I believe that there should be another way to take out their anger. It isn’t fair that I just have to go along with such violence. They don’t even know what they’re doing. They just know that they’re supposed to hate each other because of something that happened so long ago.
