A Couples Worst Nightmare...( Written by: Bob Lopez)




Verona city has suffered two young peoples death. And for what you may ask. For love. Two Families did not agree with the fact that ANYBODY in both the Montague's and the Capulet's family could ever get along, and because of that two people have lost their life. The young people's names were, Romeo & Juliet. Juliet at the age of 12 and Romeo at the age of 16 fell MADLY in love with each other. The age was not a problem, believe it or not, but their names is what kept them apart. They met at a Capulet's Party that Romeo and his friends crashed. Although some of the Capulet's such as Tybalt new that Romeo was a Montague both Romeo and Juliet new nothing of each other. As they were partying it up they caught each others eyes and it was love at first sight. Their eyes locked and did neither deny each others attraction . Romeo of course being stunned by Juliet's beauty was determined to talk to Juliet and of course he did what he had to do. He talked to her that night and had their first kiss.(with each other) As we know Juliet was a very attractive young lady. Romeo was not the only one after her, there was another young man who was very interested in having her hand in holy matrimony. His name was Paris. So Juliet was in love with Romeo and Romeo was in love with her, but Paris had her fathers blessings to marry Juliet.


Romeo: Romeo was invited to the Capulet's party by Mercutio.He was his "bff". If it wasn't for him he would have never met Juliet. Romeo had some conflict with Tybalt because of attending the party so because of that Tybalt went up to Romeo. Romeo did not want conflict for he has married Juliet. Yes Juliet and him did get married but no one knew about it except for her nurse and the friar. So therefor Romeo did not want to get in a fight with Tybalt. Mercutio on the other hand did not care and so Tybalt and Mercutio started to fight. Of course in every fight there comes a stop and that stop was Mercutio's death. Romeo was not a person that let anybody mess with his friends so because of that he went after Tybalt and they started to fight. Again there was a stop, and not a good one at that, Romeo KILLED Tybalt. Romeo was banished from Verona, and that caused a conflict with the realtionship Juliet and him had.

Juliet: This young lady died a tragic death but before this everything was, in a way, going how she wanted and planned. She first met Romeo at a party. She had no idea who he was so she did not ignore the little flirtatious things that he did towards her. Juliet soon found herself in the position where she could very easily talk to Romeo, and she did. They talked and shared an intimate kiss. Romeo and Juliet at that moment knew it was meant to be. Juliet has a nurse that usually keeps her from getting in trouble and this situation was no different. The nurse saw her and quickly got her by the arm and told her that Romeo is a Montague. Juliet stunned by this information quickly went with the nurse and waited til her dear Romeo came back again so that she could confront him about this situation. Juliet was a very nice sweet girl. She had parents that loved her and wanted the best for her. her dad thinking that he was doing her a favor by arranging her her marriage with Paris. Sadly for him to know he wasn't because she fell madly in love with Romeo.


" I feel sadness in my heart because I feel that there is no one more that could have stopped this. I could have talked to my husband and in some way influenced him to not feel hate towards the Capulet's. I would have done anything to try and prevent my dear Juliet from leaving us. I would have even gone to the extent to have just accepted the fact that Romeo and Juliet were together. But then again I say this now that she has left, who knows what I would have thought when the situation could have been stopped." These words were said by Lady Capulet. When I had a conversation with her she seemed very depressed and regretful. Just like any mother would have felt when there daughter has sadly left this world because of a feud that could have been fixed.


I had also talked to Benvolio from the Montague side where he thought some what alike as lady Capulet. " I think that I am a big part of what happened because when Romeo and Tybalt where having the fight i could have talked and convinced Romeo in a more persuading way. If I had known about Juliet could have just told him think about Juliet but I didn't. One thing I could have quickly said was that Tybalt was going to have to go through some consequence because of what he did. So then he wouldn't have done anything and all of this would not have happened."


Sadly no one prevented what happened. The consequences were that both Romeo and Juliet died sadly. Romeo because he drank poison and Juliet because of a gun shot. This story was not ended like all the other love stories you have heard. Sadly, it ended with two young peoples death. All for what? Just because two families could not get along. Every couples worst nightmare.

My View on Euthanasia

I have several thoughts on euthanasia and both agree and disagree. I would want it to be eradicated because God put you in the world for a reason and everything a person goes through is for a reason its not just for nothing. I also believe that no one has the right to take away their own life. Although many people could say "Well they weren't happy" if you think about it there are many ways to make people happy. Everybody has to be happy in some way. There are many anecdotes that could support what I am saying. For example there is the story about the man who lost his job and killed his daughters and his wife when he could have gone out and found another job. His renunciation wouldn't have happened if he didn't put so many negative thoughts in his head. He could have went on with his life and let his daughters live their lives by finding a decent job. If there's a person who really wants to find themselves a job then they will find it. He didn't have the right to kill his own family. The reasons why I don't want it to be abolished is because when a person gets sick and doesn't have the right to do many things that he/she could normally do, like if they were in a coma, then yes I do think that it would have been the right thing to do. Most peoples apprehension on this topic is very different than others but I believe that everything happens for a reason.

1A. I think that George always wanted the best for Lennie. The reason why I think this is because of the fact that George could have left Lennie along time ago if he really wanted to but he always wanted the best for Lennie no matter what type of trouble Lennie got them into. Although he did what he did to Lennie I think that George only wanted the best for Lennie and nothing else but the best.



1B. Yes I do think it was the best thing for George to do and especially the way he ended Lennie's life. By that I mean that he let him die with happy thoughts in his head instead of them fighting and leaving his last thoughts as something negative. I also think that that was the best thing that George could have done for Lennie because if not the other people like Curly could have killed him 10 times as worse then George did. Although I think that that was the best thing for Lennie I do not think that is was the best thing for George because now he has to go on living his life thinking about himself as a killer. It will probably make George really depressed and make him suicidal.



2A,B.” Late last year, 67-year-old Beppino Englaro, won an intense 10-year legal battle to allow his daughter's feeding tubes to be removed, saying that was her wish.”(http://www.cbc.com/) This quote explains that the dad knew what his daughter wanted and why would a father choose death for his own daughter without her accepting what had to be done. Your parents always want the best for you so why would they choose the worst thing for you? This father had all the right for doing what he did especially because he knew his daughter wanted it and if she didn’t then that’s on his conscience.

2C. I agree with what the father did because he said that his daughter had told him that if the feeding tubes had to be removed then that’s fine.

3A. I think that the father's main thoughts were that he couldn't give his daughters and wife the life that he thought they deserved. Also the economy could have been a very big part of this situation. Everybody is being affected by the economy no matter how much money people have it is affecting many people. The guy could have thought that he didn't want his little girls to see him in the way that he could have been, getting his house taken away, him having to explain to his daughter that there wont be enough food for all of them and they need to share in equal quantities. I think that all of these things were racing through the fathers head as he contemplated to himself whether or not he should kill the things that he loved most in his life.

3B. I think that parent could enroll their kids in school activities that are after school. The reason why i think that this would be the best ways is because most after school activities do not need for the kids to pay a big amount of money or any money at all. The kids could also be distracted and wont have to go home thinking what they are going to do next.

HELP!

1. I casted Leonardo DiCaprio as Ralph because in the movie "Titanic" his role put him in the place to become a leader. Kate Winslet, playing the role of Rose, was depending on Jack to lead her through the way in order for them to survive.
2. The second reason why I chose him to play the role of Ralph was because in most of the movies he comes out in he is the leading role and he has to be able to play the leading role in "Lord of the Flies".


3. the third reason towards why I think that Leonardo would perfectly play Ralph because when i first thought of Ralph he was the only person that i thought would fit how Ralph looks.

4. Leonardo DiCaprio would also perfectly play Ralph because of his personality out of movies that would naturally come out for him to play Ralph.

5. He has been a great leader in all of the roles that he has played, meaning that being a leader in this movie would come naturally.





1. This is Paris Hilton. I chose her to play Jack. The first reason why i chose her to be Jack is because Jack always wanted to steal the spotlight from Ralph and that is exactly what Paris does when she goes any where.




2. You could also obviously tell that she likes to control other people and that was what jack did to the hunters, he told them exactly what to do and Paris does that.






3. The third reason why she would be a good Jack is because she always tries to get people to go for her and like her. Just like Jack did to the hunters to persuade them to go to his group instead of Ralph's.


4. The look that Paris also has also helps her pursue the role of jack because she has the look like she is going to get it her way no matter what and that was what Jack did he got it his way.


5. The last reason towards why she would be a good jack is because they have the same reasons to get what they want. To be a leader and to not get pushed around by anyone.



1.I casted the pig from chicken little to be piggy.

The reason why i chose this pig was because he was an actual pig.

2. In the movie he is also very vulnerable just like piggy was in the movie and book.

3. Everybody pushed him around and they let it happen. So technically they were pushovers.

4. The fourth reason why i casted this pig was because they have somewhat of the same physical attributes.

5. The fifth reason why i chose Runt of the Littler to be piggy was because they both tried, in their movies, to not let their friends tear apart. So they tried to keep them civilized.


1. I chose Heath Ledger as Simon first of all because he always delivers a great performance in all of his movies. For example in "The Dark Knight", he made an E X C E L L E N T performance as the joker.

2. The second reason is because if i ever did direct my own movie I would have casted him without a doubt just because of how big of a fan i am.

3. The third and last reason why i chose Heath Ledger as my Simon is because they have somewhat of the same looks just that heath ledger is older and Simon is younger.




1. I chose leather face as my Roger because they both killed people as their playing roles. Although Leather face was based on a true story and Roger wasn't in a real life movie they could still complement each others roles.

2. The second reason why i chose leather face as Roger was because they both had different plans of killing and no other person did. They either slaughtered them or crushed them with a rock.

3. The third reason why leather face would play Roger is because they both were the ones out of all the other characters to be the ones that kill the people that they did kill.










This is One of my beasties.(to the left)



and to the right is my second beastie.










This house right here is Ed Geins house. I would make my movie setting to be in this house.


7b.

1.I would have first of all changed the setting to make it somewhat of a horror movie.

2. The third thing i would have changed were the characters and made it a variety of people. So not just guys but girls too and make it in a variety of ages.

3. The third thing i would have changed about the movie is the timing, like the year it happened.
8. I would deffinetly change the title because it wouldnt go with the whole gist of my movie.

1.This picture to the left is a picture of Hiroshima before it was bombed. I think that the picture is shows that this city was an industrial city and that it had many corporations in it. This picture makes me think about all of the people that lived in it and lost their lives through something that wasn't their fault. This city looks like a very important city and very significant to the military forces because of its industrial importance.





2.This picture to the right shows Hiroshima after the bombing. It is very sad to look at this picture because it shows how much of destruction was made because of the bombing. You can tell that after the bomb was thrown that it was a very strong explosion. Especially from the looks of how the building was left after the bomb.



3.This picture is of a person after the bombing and how they were left. It makes me feel really sad and depressed because they are left like that permanently. It sucks because I know that if i were left like that for the rest of my life because of how the government of our country was acting, i would be very angry. It is really sad to see how people were left and how everything affected them in their daily life and the rest of their life.



4. this picture is a painting that shows mother and their children in a refuge. It shows that the mothers, even though they were hurt, they still breast feed their baby's and made an effort to live. It also has people that help the people that got hurt. I think it is a very powerful painting because most people get really sad watching and knowing that a baby or a women and her child have gotten severly hurt.

View on abortion


1.My stance on abortion is pro-life because I believe that when someone gets an abortion it is like killing a baby. I don't like the fact that people get an abortion because either they are not ready or they feel like it is a mistake because now a days there are many ways to prevent from getting pregnant like pills and condoms. People that have sex should know that there is a big responsibility that comes with it. Although some people say well it will slow me down they should think about what they are doing and even though abortions are not going to be illegal they should at least make the process more difficult for a person to get so that they could think about what they are throwing away.


2."The fact that these positive developments have failed to trickle down to the poorest sectors of society is due to a host of factors, including religious and cultural practices, political and economic exclusion and gender bias." (BBC - Abortion)
3. This quote is mainly saying that the main reason that most people get abortions is because of political, the economy, religion, and cultural practices. Although it is for religion or cultural practices the people that are doing it should know that even though it is for that they are still killing a persons life and they shouldn't because there are many ways for the person not to keep the baby but abortion should not be one of those reasons. There is adoption which is the main thing that people should do instead of killing the baby or fetus. Everybody deserves a chance in life and that includes the baby's that are being aborted. I knew a person who was going to get an abortion and decided not too. The main reason why i think the person did not get an abortion was because the process of getting it was longer and so many people talked to get her out of it. She had more time to think about it and decided to have it anyways. Now that she has her little baby boy, I have never seen her happier. She looks at it in a way thinking, "WOW......and to think I was going to kill this baby."
Most people that think about abortions and getting them should know that having a child is one of the best things in life, and although people say it is for religion purposes they should know that God sent many people to this world for many different purposes but the main one was so that people could have children not have them as a mistake and then throw them away like as if they are nothing.
4."A woman can legally deprive a man of his right to become a parent or force him to become one against his will." (Armin A. Brott)
5. In the quotation above it is really saying that a mother or soon to be mother could be the person who can change whether or not a person could be a father or not. Since my view on abortion is pro-life i believe that if a person were to abort they should consult it with their partner because there is always a possibility that the father might want it and the mother would just have to have it. The father never really says anything if they don't want the baby and they want to abort it but most people that i know that are guys would want their partner to have the baby. I haven't met one person who was a guy that had his girlfriend or wife pregnant and wouldn't want the baby. Besides the baby shouldn't ever be aborted because there are many ways to not have the baby with you like a big thing is adoption. Although the baby wouldn't meet the parents it has a very strong possibility that they could have good parents.

first assighnment powerful pictures

This picture is about two zebras who are related to each other. The biggest one is the mom and the smaller one is the daughter. The mother is showing her love to her child. This picture shows me that no matter what type of thing you are a mothers love is always the greatest. It obviously shows that the mother loves her daughter because it seems like as if she was hugging her. I can relate to this picture because my i live with my mom and it seems like she would do the same to me. She always tells me that a mothers love is the greatest love out of all the types of love. The mother also looks very protective and so would my mom that is another way i can relate to this picture. This picture is very strong to me because my mother and i are very close and in this picture the two relatives look very close to each other.
