Entry #1 

Dear Diary,

I am Romeo Montague of Verona. My family has been in a feud with the Capulet family for years. I have found a girl. I am obssessed with this girl. Her name is Rosaline. She is pretty, nice, and funny. No matter how hard I try I can't stop thinking about her. My good friend Benvolio has tried to help by saying things like "Alas, that love, whose, so tyrannous and rough in proof". (Pg 23) I then simply reply " This love feel I, that feel o love in this." (pg. 23) What should I do? I love someone who does not love me. I am sure I am not the only person tonight who feels this way but that does not make it easier. I believe a good night's sleep is in order.

Dear Diary,

The boys have invited me to go out to a party and I think this may be just what I need. Perhaps I will be able to get my mind off Rosaline. "Tun, man, one fire burns out another's burning" (Pg. 33) That is why I will be going to the party to get rid of the thought of Rosaline. It will be fun, "Ay mine own fortune in my misery". (Pg. 33) I will have a great night with my family and friends. Who knows - maybe I will find a new love - a better love. That is a few nights away.  For now I will be relaxing with Benvolio, Abraham, Mercutio, and other friends. I am also looking forward to little things like supper with Mother and Father, which should be great, as always. So, I better get going. Goodbye Diary until another night.

Dear Diary,

That party last night was CRAZY. I mostly remember the parts when I was with my dearest Juliet. This was our first time meeting. I can still remember what she said -" Good Pilgrim, you do wrong with your hand too much". ( Pg. 67.) Oh how I love her. She is the only person I think about now. Rosaline who? Juliet - how perfect is she?  After the party that night I went to the Capulet house. I climbed the walls and hid in the bushes waiting for a chance to talk to her. I ...
