Day 10 (Journal Entry)
===So far in __All Quiet on the Western Frontier__, I am enjoying it so far. However, some things that I have noticed is that the descriptions are very accurate and very gruesome. It really grosses me out. However, the scenes are very realistic, and I am enjoying it so far. I hope to read some more of it later on. Lastly, I hope the plot gets better __FUNNY ABOUT THE PLOT.

Dear Diary,
===Oh how life-changing this life was! The fair maiden Juliet opened up my eyes, enabling me to see a whole new different world in front of me. Rosaline is nothing compared to Juliet. I was just being paranoid. However, this is different. I swear it. It was love at first sight. She made the whole room brighter, lifting my spirits. As soon as I saw her, my heart started to thump wildley. I wish I could have spent more time with her, so I could get to know her more. But...the fact that she is a Capulet hurts me oh so much. Our parents wouldn't approve at all. We would be a disgrace, since the Capulets and we Montagues are sworn enemies. I don't want this to become an obstacle though!!!!! Wishing for the best===

Romeo.
LOVE THE "I SWEAR IT" LINE. IT MAKES US REALIZE HOW IMPETUS ROMEO IS. NICE VOICE.

10/10

d. underlining or italicizing or quotation of title
===I finished the book __Romeo and Juliet__ last night, thinking,"Until the book is finished, I will not be able to sleep." It was very interesting, and I was thrilled to read the last part of the book. I thought that Romeo should have waited, or at least visited the Friar before taking such a dramatic and serious action of committing suicide. If he had done so, he would have been able t meet Juliet and live their happy ending; everyone but the two families and Paris would have been satisfied. On the other hand, Paris, who was about to get married to Juliet, should not have fought Romeo as soon as he saw him, since it wouldn't have resulted in his death. There were immensely unfortunate consequences due to unwise choices the characters have made.===

The most interesting thing I did this winter vacation was that I went to a ski resort with five other friends of mine for five nights and six days. It was great fun!!! **However, the snow was not very suitable for boarding in: it was clumped in huge piles all around the slope.** Furthermore, there were a lot of people there. **We boarded tirelessly, quickly, carefully.** **I was told by my mother to sleep early; by friends, to sleep late. We tried as hard as possible not to fall asleep; however, some people were dreaming by 11p.m.** We ate scrumptious food, filling our stomachs endlessly, and ate snacks late at night. It was such a lovely experience; I would most definitely want to do this again.
