Romeo and Juliet

Selina Berrezueta 809

   In the play "Romeo and Juliet" are these two teens that fall in love in first sight . Romeo has been really upset about a girl that he loved ,but then he meets Juliet and he forgets all about Rosaline. I think that Romeo's words suggest between with true love and rash behavior.

   In the the play "Romeo and Juliet" Romeo is upset about Rosaline. For example, in the play with his at the party where he meets Juliet . Romeo was at the party still upset about the situation about Rosaline ,but when he sees Juliet he forgot all about Rosaline. Another thing is he just met Juliet and he really doesn't no nothing about Juliet . Romeo probably just wanted to forget all about Rosaline and be with someone elsa not ,because of true love . B

   In the play "Romeo and Juliet" in the other hand Romeos love for Juliet was true love. For example , in the end of the play when he thinks that Juliet had died he kills himself just for her . He doesn't see himself without Juliet, so he died just that not to be alone without her . Another thing is when he found out that Juliet was a capulet he didn't care . He stayed with Juliet , because he love her they she was no matter what .
 
   In the play "Romeo and Juliet" Romeo's love for Juliet was between true love and rash behavior. It was bother because he loved her the way she was. But maybe only loved her because of him being alone .

Cut by Patricia McCormick

   The book "Cut" by Patricia McCormick the main character Callie is suicidal. She is suicidal for some other reasons ,but there are some reasons is because of other characters. The characters that impact main character is her dad and her two friends. Callie doesn't speak up for herself . She is scared her friends will leave her and her dad would leave her forever .

   Callie gets impacted by her 2 friends Debbie and Sydney. They impact her by including her in their problems even tough she really didn't do anything . In the book the two friends fight with each other and they bring Callie in the problem . Callie really doesn't know what to do ,but just stay quite and not say how she feels. Callie really doesn't say anything ,because she is afraid they will hate her and not be friends with her. Instead of saying anything she just "solves" the problem by cutting herself.

   The second character that impacts Callie is her dad. Her dad impacts her by not being around when she needs him. In the book Callie lives only with her mom and her mom has to work for the whole day. She really doesn't have anyone to tell her problems. Her dad sometimes goes visits her ,but just for a couple of minutes and leaves.

   The story "Cut" is a big impact story and the book brings out a lot of messages. The main character Callie she really sends out a message. When her friends fight they bring into the problem . Callie doesn't stand up for herself, but the way she "fixes the problem" is by cutting herself. This message is saying is don't stay quiet and speak up, because you don't wanna he hurting yourself  or make the problem worse. Just speak up and you'll fix the problem or just not be friends with the person who's hurting you .

Is It Time To Raise The Minimum Wage?

   In the article, "Is it time raise to the minimum wage?" It's about workers are wanting to make the minimum wage increase instead $7.25 dollars. Then President Obama is planing to bring it up to $10.10 an hour. In the other hand other people say no they shouldn't raise up the minimum wage. They don't want to rise it up ,because they think $7.25 is good enough for a family .

   The author I don't think doesn't have a side ,because it talks about how Kirsten Gillibrand wants the minimum wage to raise up .Then how John Boehner doesn't want the minimum wage to raise up. In the article Kirsten Gillibrand says $7.25 isn't enough ,because with that money you don't have enough for their needs like food, home, clothing, and etc. A family of 3 earns less than $19,790 per year and living in poverty. But if they do raise up the minimum wage to $10.10 an hour families would have billions of dollars in the pocket each year . 

   In the other said John Boehner thinks that they shouldn't increase the minimum wage. He thinks this ,because it will hurt very people that it's suppose to help. He said when he was younger he had every job and he had 11 bothers ,but he said that everything was fine with the money for his family. He thinks that if they do raise up the minimum wage there will be less jobs with a higher payments. Also his opinion is to not only focus on jobs but focus on fixing the taxes.

   In response to what I read is that yes, they should raise up the minimum wage. I think this ,because there is some families that have more then 5 members and they don't earn enough money for themselves. This makes me think about why some people don't want Obama to raise it up? I mean there might be reasons why ,but they might earn more money and don't know how it feels like.
