6th essay: movie review ‘Romeo and Juliet’

I watched ‘Romeo and Juliet’first time. I have known ‘Romeo and Juliet’, just the name. I watched this on my class.

First, I write about the outline. Romeo and Juliet’s first meeting was dinner party. Romeo felled in love with Juliet at first sight. And Juliet felled in love Romeo too. They loved each other. But there was an invisible barrier between people. The Romeo family and Juliet family was enemy. But they had made a match of it. It was secret. He left from her. He heard she was killed. But it was not true. But he didn’t know that thing. So, he was very sad. She thought if a rumor was going about that she was dead, he must be come back. She had drunk the strong sleeping pill. He saw her. He thought she was dead. So, he killed himself. She woke up him side. She saw him body. She were determined she killed herself too. They died.

Second, I think Shakespeare’s ‘Romeo and Juliet’ is a tragedy. The conflicting feelings made a sad story. I can’t understand the ardor of art. They have strong passion. They were so young. I can’t believe die. No matter what happen. But it is very interesting movie!!

Restaurant review

I write about restaurant review.

I went to this place this Saturday. I visited this shop first time. I don’t know the name. It was jus written Udon, Soba. There is oblique of ‘Round- one’. We want to have an urge for a shaved ice, because we played catch.

It looks very old. So, we were interested in the shop. We came in the shop. It managed a old woman. She was very kind for us.

First, we ordered udon. I ordered burdock tempura udon. It was very big tempura. Tempura was bigger than a dish. I couldn’t eat all. But it was very delicious.

Second, we ordered a shaved ice. It tastes of strawberry milk. The price was 300 yen. We shared a shaved ice with my boyfriend. It was very big and fluffy. It was dusted sweet milk. It was the best shaved ice that ever came my way.

I want to list an udon and a shaved ice picture on my blog. But I noticed that I finished eating. I took the outside. I think the shop is good unknown spot.
