5 paragraph essay

Romeo and Juliet were truly in love. Everything that they had done for each other from the beginning to the end have all been for the sake of spending more time with each other. They wished to be together forever.

“Love. Love is the greatest gift God ever gave man. Love is not 
wanting to go anywhere without her. Love is not caring 
what other people think about the two of you. Love is when you 
feel depressed and sickly when you're not with her. 
You feel like your life has no meaning or purpose without her. 
And that if she wasn't holding your hand you would float 
away to heaven from where she came. Love is caring for her 
physically and emotionally. 
It's telling her every day, anytime, anywhere, anyhow, for no just 
reason that you love her. Love is telling her u want to spend the rest 
of your life with her. Love is wanting to marry her even (though you haven't) 
been dating that long. That you would do anything and 
everything for her. It's the feeling that you would give up everything 
just to see her smile or look into her beautiful eyes or hear 
her soft, soothing voice. Love is pure happiness. Love is the feeling you 
get when all you have to do is think of her and it brings a smile to 
your face and a (yearning) to your heart. Love is not being able to think about (anything) but her. Love is having the sweetest dreams about her 
and waking up with a smile on (your) face. Love is an (overwhelming) feeling of pure bliss when the 2 of (you) kiss. Love is wanting to hold her in (your)
 arms till the end of time. Love is wishing (your) time with 
her never ends, that your lips would 
be locked together forever, that she'd be in (your) arms 
till the end of time, that (you) could cuddle with her for all of 
eternity. Love is being (helplessly) and deeply in love with her and 
knowing your love for her and your feelings 
for her will never change/end.” ~Sabes~ 
        
        This definition of love clearly explains EVERYTHING Romeo and Juliet experienced during their time together.  “Love is wanting to marry her even (though you haven't) been dating that long” represents how Romeo and Juliet both wanted to get married even though they had only known each other for one night. “You feel like your life has no meaning or purpose without her” represents the feeling Romeo had when he heard of Juliet’s death. He no longer had a meaning to live without her.

        Some may argue that these two were just experiencing a chemical reaction in their bodies increasing their hormones. However, we are human beings meaning these chemical reactions are part of who we are. Love should NOT be separated from these feelings because these feelings help us understand who we are attracted to, whether it be a man, woman, or any other gender. We must come to accept it and move on.

        Romeo and Juliet were clearly in love with one another when it comes to our societies standards both mentally and physically. Since they were in love in both ways they experienced what I would call True Love.

Mid-term

I am quite sure that my grade for this class is currently an I, due to my absence and late assignments.

A: My attendance has been terrible, however during the time that i am here i am on task and doing what im supposed to do. I believe my percent for this category should be 11%.

B: I have completed 4 of the 15 assignments, none on time. After doing the math (literally) I have concluded that i deserve a 7% (6.66666667% when i used a calculator).

C: None of my work has been my best work. Clearly because none of my work has been on time this term. I'm probably getting 12 % at the moment.

D: Honestly my contribution is probably like 0.7%. I rarely ever comment especially since im not someone who's used to doing online learning. Its the same with social websites; i dont comment.

When i add it up i get 30.7%.

Prince Escalus' Opinion On Love


Prince Escalus


Love should be banished. It may seem like it's a hell of a time, but slowly inside it kills you and others, literally and figuratively. I mean seriously, because of love a murder has been committed. Because Romeo married Juliet and showed up at the Capulet party that, Tybalt was outraged and challenged Romeo to a duel, and Romeo tried to truce. Then a friend of Romeo's, Mercutio, stepped up and was killed, leading to Romeo's need for vengeance, thus killing Tybalt.


Love is horrible it makes people do crazy things, like if you can't be with that one you "love." you will kill yourself Is love even real? You tell that person that you will die for them, but behind your back they might be cheating on you. Also you say you love them but then you see someone nicer and you question yourself if you even know what love is?


Now don't get me started on sex. Majority of crimes that are committed nowadays are sexually related. Men who are sexually deprived  are  usually the main perpetrators due to their built up testosterone. In my opinion sex should be a free service distributed among the commoners to be rid of the sexual assaults committed all over Verona, especially since it often leads to murder. Murder brings fear to the hearts of the citizens, and to have a perfectly functional city fear must not be allowed to rule over it's people.

Teen Themes

   For me, being a teen is quite simple. I just go to school and do work, however I did skip quite a few classes last year.

   My mom is'nt awfully stric, unless its school related ofcourse. She has always told me that schooling comes first. "Don't do anything that will get in the way of your schooling" she would often say.

   When it comes to friends I definetly have more than enough. I have old friends in the phillipines that still remember me, however I can only remember a few of them.

  Currently i have friends in burnaby, surrey, langley, and vancouver. Even though i hang out with all my friends, i see my friends in surrey more often.

  All in all, being a teen is a nice and happy experience for me.

Introduction 10

   My history with english has been quite unique. Different teachers have had different ways of teaching.
  
   Quite a few teachers have taught me the old fashioned way, where they read through these 10 page passages and than give us work from the book or from work sheets they've printed out.

   Although most of my teachers have taught me the oldfashioned way, 1 or 2 have taught me using modern technology. My grade 8 teacher taught me in a computer lab; he did nothing but use the computers. I would constantly have these odd  assignments that i guess in some way taught me english.

   Although I've  been taught in all these different ways, my experience learning this subject has been positive.
