Romeo and Juliet: A Shakespearean Masterpiece

Act 5, Scene 3

ROMEO
I must indeed. That’s why I came here. Good and noble young man, don’t mess with someone who’s desperate. Get away from here and leave me. 

PARIS
I refuse your request. I’m arresting you as a criminal.

ROMEO
Are you going to provoke me? Alright, let’s fight, boy!

ROMEO and PARIS fight.

PARIS

(he falls) Oh, I’ve been killed!

If you are merciful, open the tomb and lay me next to Juliet.

PARIS dies.

ROMEO

Oh my Juliet! Why did you live me alone in this cruel world. 

I think I don't have a reason to live anymore.  Oh, I’ll rest here forever.

 I’ll forget about all the bad luck that has troubled me. 

Eyes, look out for the last time! Arms, make your last embrace! And lips,  

you are the doors of breath. Seal with a righteous kiss the deal I have

 made with death forever.

 (ROMEO kisses JULIET and takes out the poison) 

Come, bitter poison, come, unsavory guide! You desperate pilot,

 let’s crash this sea-weary ship into the rocks! Here’s to my love!

ROMEO going to drink the potion.

FRIAR LAWRENCE

(approaching the tomb) Romeo!

Oh no! What is this blood that stains the stony entrance of this tomb?

 Why are these bloody swords lying here, abandoned by their masters?

 Next to this place of peace?

Romeo! Wait! Stop!!

ROMEO didn't drink the potion.

ROMEO

Father, there is no more reason to live for. My beloved wife,

Juliet is already dead. I have to finish my life.

FRIAR LAWRENCE

No! Romeo, Juliet isn't dead. He just drank a potion that will

make her sleep and looks dead.

JULIET wakes up.

JULIET

(Juliet hugs Romeo)Oh! My Romeo, you're here you made it.

FRIAR LAWRENCE

I think it's time to go, come on I hear the watchers coming.

They all leave the tomb.

Act 5, Scene 2

FRIAR LAWRENCE

You both shall go far away from Verona and continue loving 

each other in far place where you two can be safe.

ROMEO

Thanks for all the help you've done father.

JULIET

Our friendly father, we will never forget you.

ROMEO  and  JULIET left.

Chorus

Friar Lawrence confess to the both families on what really happened.

 They listen to him and they just let him go and don't give a punishment

on what have he done. The two families then agreed to settle down the 

argument between each other. After several years, they also searched

 for the couple and let them live again in Verona peacefully.

THE END

That's seems a happy ending, very much different to the ending made by William Shakespeare, but hope you love it or even like it a bit.

This is just a tribute to one of the greatest writer in the world William Shakespeare.

Am I supposed to call it 'Happy Fathers' Day'?

                    During fathers' day we  thank our fathers for their love and sacrifices that they did for our family. Our father is one of the best person, dad or even a man for us. They are always there for us. They can protect the whole family in danger. He will do anything to sustain the needs of his family. Our fathers are really amazing. I really love my father. But I think this fathers' day will be sad for all of us in the family. This is the first fathers' day that we will spend without him. I will never forget him. All of the times that we are together are considered as a treasure for me.

                    The worst and the saddest thing that happened to our family is when my father died. It is just like the end of everything. Just like an ending of a chapter on a book, where there is a new beginning and new life after such a situation. When he's still alive for me, he is the best father in the world. I still remember all the things that he did for us. Let me tell you the story of his life. He didn't finish his studies. He is just a waiter in Puerto Asul and there he met my mom. When my mom got pregnant, they both resigned in there jobs. He came from a poor family so he is good at household chores. When we are still young we are trained by our dad to do this kind of things. We just get our income from our bakery. My dad knows how to bake breads. Because we are the one who only have a bakery in our place, our business is really at its highest. He is very hardworking. Mom and Dad will sleep late at night just to finish making breads that are going to be sell early in the morning. He is doing this just to support our studies. He died because of cancer. He became bed rest for almost a couple of months. He died on September 19, 2012.  His dream is to see all of us finish our studies and have a better life and future. The saddest thing here is that he died without reaching his dream. We promise our selves that we will finish our studies and make our family proud. I will also never forget his loyalty to my mom. He never hurt my mom physically and emotionally. My dad loves my mom very much. He is quiet and doesn't share most of the stories of his life to me. We are not that close but we have some time for bonding. The thing that I will never forget is we both go to a particular barber shop and there we both have our hair cut. That might sound boring, but I think the boring stuff  is the stuff I remember the most. 

                    Maybe this year's Fathers' day will not be as happy as before. I really miss my dad very much. I learned a lesson in life that you should always let the people around you fill your love and appreciation in them because no one knows how long you will be together with that person. So wherever my dad is now I just want to say that I really love him and I miss him very much.                            

Hero of my Life

                 When we say hero, the first thing that comes in our minds are the ones who has supernatural powers and save people from danger. Some of us treat other people heroes even they doesn't have powers like in the comics that were reading and in T.V.  shows that were watching. I also have my own hero. Even though she doesn't have supernatural powers, she still keep us away from danger. I really love my hero. I think nothing is better than her and no one can love me the way she do. Yes, my hero of my life is my mother.

                      When my father died, it was just last year, my mom was the only one left to take care of us. I know its hard for her. Being alone to support our needs is not easy. The problem is that we doesn't know where we can get a right income for our needs. Because our business of owning a bakery is gone, my mom  is now owning a small store, a sari-sari store. She wakes up early every in the morning to open our store. During the afternoon, she sells food for lunch. Our store is near an elementary school, so the teachers, that are also her friends, eats here as well as the students that studies in that elementary school. Even she fells pain and other problems concerning her health because of tiredness and less sleep, she still have time to cook us breakfast in the morning and dinner in the night. During weekends, we help her in the household chores because she can't do it during weekdays and also to give her time to rest. She is doing everything she can just to support our studies. Shes always saying to us that her only dream is to see all of us graduate in collage and have a good life. Our other relatives also help my mom. I adore her because shes a very strong woman. She still seems to look fine even problems arise. I want her to be proud of me so all her sufferings and hardships will be all worth it. Shes always their for me every time that I need her. She also help me to over come the problems that i face everyday.

                          I really love her. Shes amazing and i really treat her as my own hero. Even if shes just a simple person in the eyes of  other people she still my hero. I promise that I will make her dreams into reality. Even she doesn't have powers like a super hero she can still protect us from danger. I will never be tired and stop saying thank you and I love you on her. No one can beats her. You, who is the hero of your life?
