BRAIN WAVES!!!


~Today in our small groups you may remember, and if you don't I am scared for you, going over our study guides. I think it is kind-of neat when in our groups we discuss our answers, and there is a lot of them. For one question my group often finds many different answers and perspectives on it. One subject that we went off on today was how Shakespeare really gets you thinking. We decided that he doesn't say things strait out, but rather lets you ponder on the characters and their actions. Shakespeare, is such a awesome writer and knows his audience so well, that he can lead a person's thought in a specific direction with no oral information at all. To me that is amazing, and how Shakespeare writes goes right along in that category. Romeo and Juliet gets you thinking and it can even look at people from a different perspective. I know that this book is a challenge and even sometimes a brain teaser, but I always did love a good twist! Hope you enjoy the rest of Act 2, it is really good. (the nurse is CRAZY!)
