My Last Minute

What fate! Our love was doomed from the very beginning! Romeo did not receive the message of my plans. He must have thought I was really dead, so he killed himself. His lifeless body is next to mine, and even in death, he still look handsome. The few days that I had with him had been the best ones of my life. I am sad that we cannot spend a whole lifetime together. I have to kill myself, for I can't live without my Romeo. Farewell world.

"There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved."

I have decided, I would rather die than to live a life without love. I was right to come to the Friar for help. He gave me a potion that will make me seem dead for 2 days. Friar Lawrence will tell Romeo of my plan, then when I wake up in my coffin on Thursday, Romeo would be there to help me escape, and we will spend the rest of our lives together. I went home to apologize to father for my earlier behavior, and told him that I will do whatever he says. That lifted his mood by a lot.

I am starting to question myself. Should I do this? What if I were to wake up before Romeo comes, and will have to stay in the coffin with the stale air? Not only that, I am afraid the ghosts of my ancestors and Tybalt might appear. How horrible it would be to lie there with all these fears! Then again, this is my only chance to be with Romeo. I beg you God, please make this plan work.

I don't know what to do! Romeo and I said our last good-byes this morning. It breaks my heart to know that we will never be together. My heart breaks even more when I told my father that I will not marry Paris, and he got mad and threatened to throw me out on the streets if I do not marry Paris this Thursday. Doesn't he care about my happiness? Nurse suggested I just do what father wants me to and forget about Romeo. She even dared to compare my Romeo to a dishrag! I am betrayed by my father and friend, all in one day. Never have I felt so lost and depressed. I think I shall go to Friar Lawrence, who I pray is still on my side, for advice.

Rest In Peace, My Cousin, Tybalt

Nurse had just told me some bad news. My cousin, Tybalt, is dead and Romeo is banished from Venice. Worst of all, Romeo was the one who slain Tybalt! At first, I mourned for Tybalt, and was angry at Romeo. Tybalt was a brave, courteous man, and he was my dearest cousin. I can't believe that Romeo would do this! During my rage, I spoke ill of him. Then I forgave Romeo and was sad that I may never see him again. Nurse comforted me by telling me that he is hiding at Lawrence' cell, and she will bring him to me tonight for our last farewell. I gave her my ring to pass on to Romeo.

Romeo and I are Married

I sent Nurse at 9 this morning to retrieve any news from Romeo, and she promised me that she would return in half an hour. Two hours passed and she still hadn't return! I thought perhaps she cannot meet him. Nurse came back at noon, but it took her a while to deliver Romeo's message. I learned that Friar Lawrence is to wed us, and that later tonight, Romeo will climb to my bedchamber and we will spend the night together. So I went to Friar Lawrence's cell; Romeo and I exchanged vows, and we are now husband and wife.

I Am In Love

A few hours after the street fight, mother called me in to tell me that I will meet my suitor at the ball, and she asked me to love him. He is Paris, the Prince's kinsman. I never gave much thought to marriage and I didn't want to get married yet, but I went along with it just to please mother. I hoped I would come to love him.

Now I am in love, but not with Paris. I'm in love with Romeo Montague. We met at the ball and it was love at first sight. Romeo is charming and romantic and handsome. I know he is the son of my enemy, but it doesn't matter to me. He came to my balcony tonight, and we confessed our love to each other. Drunk with love, I proposed to him, and he agreed! We're getting married tomorrow! I am suppose to wait for Nurse to deliver any messages from Romeo about our marriage. Tomorrow couldn't come fast enough.

"If you avoid rivalry and dispute, God will protect you."

There is a well-known rivalry between us Capulets and the Montagues, and many lives had ended too soon because of it. I am bringing this subject up because a street fight broke out this morning, and that ancient conflict is the reason. I do not see why Montague has to be my enemy. I hope that one day both Capulets and Montagues can live together in Verona peacefully.

A Glimpse of My Day

There was not much excitement today. I had my lessons on reading, writing, and  literature, just as mother and father wanted me to do. Nurse taught me some household skills that would be expected of me when I get married. I didn't say it out loud, but I thought it was all very boring. And so the day went by slowly, until I heard the news that my cousins Rosaline and Livia will be coming to my house tomorrow for the traditional Capulets' masked ball. I am looking forward to it, for it is always so fun. Everyone would gather in a circle and dance around to the point where he or she gets really dizzy and drops out of the circle. There are wonderful foods and drinks to be consumed. Also, mother bought me the most beautiful dress I've ever seen for the ball. I tried it on yesterday, and I love it. I have to go join my parents for supper. Ciao!
