Culture Shock-Romeo and Juliet



We see here two different movie covers, referring to two different movies, both having to do with Shakespeare's novel, Romeo and Juliet. This novel has lasted throughout the decades and it still has an effect on our culture today, as seen here. Bottom line, Shakespeare has written a timeless novel that has been celebrated through many decades.

English reflection

Honors English is a very different environment for me. Most of the time, when I hear "Honors English", I cringe. All the work that we do each week seems pointless sometimes. But, when I think back to summertime when I was doing the summer project, I realize that I have grown and learned a lot in English. Honors English to me is a blessing in disguise. I hate doing the work, but I know that it will get me ready for next year, which is what this class is about. All in all, I am glad that I am in Honors English.
