This Title Will Not Contain the Word "Character"

...Oops.

I've had some trouble connecting to characters in Romeo and Juliet, but that's true of anything I am expected to connect to. A traditional "character" is usually nothing like me. I fit quite a few different roles, not one, and not the same one all of the time. I, like Tybalt, am prone to sudden flashes of anger, however I am not short-sighted and thick. Most of the time, in fact, I'm not at all like him. Like Friar Lawrence, I am often the one who holds back and gives sagely advice about the future. I could identify as sort of a cross between the two most different characters in Romeo and Juliet. I guess that says something about me, doth it not? I will, however choose Friar Lawrence as my character, since it is hard for me to say that Tybalt made a right decision when he represents the side of me that acts rashly and makes bad decisions. I agree with Friar Lawrence in marrying Romeo and Juliet, because a way to connect the two warring houses with love and a union of two young people may be just the thing to keep the peace.

Also, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is turning out to to be a very interesting book. I've read three words so far and I am very frightened, but intrigued.
