Oh Romeo, Romeo!

I'm studying Romeo and Juliet for English and it's so hard. My friends and me now say "I bite my thumb at you" to people that are annoying us. It's really funny. Since we're studying it, our English teachers thought we should put on a play for the whole school to watch. "Shakespeare is meant to be read out loud." That's what my teacher said. So I went up to him and said if I could be Juliet.

He said no! Can you believe it? I'm like volunteering to be the main actor. Everyone else is too shy to be her. Or they aren't that pretty and Juliet is pretty. Look at the movies. I never watched them but I see pictures of the actors and stuff. Anyway, he said I have to audition in front of everyone. He says audition will happen next week. Why make me wait. Oh well. At least it's to show everyone that he's being fair, even though I'm already such a Juliet.

My best friend Jessica and me practised the first parts of Juliet. I was Juliet and she was the mum. Jessica would play a fantastic mum. I hope she gets the part so we can act together.
