Answer:

Juliet – Diary Entry 1

Verona April 21, 1300 (Before the masquerade)

Dear Diary,

My parents have broken my heart, I try as much as I can to honor and respect my parents, as they are the Capulets, but they make it so difficult for me. If they could just allow me to marry the one of my choosing I would feel so much better. They have chosen my partner to be Paris, cousin of the Prince, and are already planning the wedding. My mother came to me suggesting the idea, but I know suggesting really means I have a certain amount of time before they will force me to marry him. I am also upset because my mother and I have never had the best relationship and she is now coming to me telling me who I should marry with no concern for what I want. I had always wanted the perfect mother-daughter relationship everyone else seems to have, but it just never happened. I had hoped that as I got older we would gain more things in common, and we would form a relationship but the exact opposite has happened; it seems that we have grown farther apart. She can’t even muster up the courage to speak to me alone, she had to call in my Nurse when we were speaking because she doesn’t know how to talk to me. The Nurse is my caretaker, she is the one who I speak to if I need a mother figure in my life or any advice. I have known her my whole life, she practically raised me. I trust her with everything and she is always there to comfort me; except this time she took my mother’s side saying I should marry Paris because he’s handsome and has money. I now have to attend a Masquerade Ball to get to know Paris and see if I want to marry him. Wish me luck.

Sincerely,

Juliet Capulet

Juliet – Diary Entry 2

Verona April 21, 1300 (After the masquerade)

Dear Diary,

I have just met the love of my life. He is the sun to my earth; he must have been carved by God and shaped to fit only me. I had seen him across the room multiple time but I never stopped to pay close attention to him. Paris came over to talk to me a couple of times, but I was never really in the mood. Most of the night I stood in the corner of the room staring out the window when I see this guys reflection in the window and immediately look over to see who it is. He didn’t have a mask on nor did he have any sort of costume, it looked as though this was a last minute stop he never really intended on coming to. He came over to me, and as we made eye contact we immediately fell in love; no words had to be exchanged, we just both knew they are the one for me. We talked and kissed, but before I could catch his name he was on his way. The Nurse went over to ask him his name, and the response she came back with was the last name I would have ever thought to hear coming out of her mouth. His name is Romeo… Romeo Montague. My only enemy, my only foe, my only love. I don’t know how I will deal with such a tragedy. We must keep our relationship a secret.

Sincerely,

Juliet Capulet

Juliet – Diary Entry 3

Verona April 21, 1300 (In the middle of the night)

Dear Diary,

My one true love has come for me, he has come to set me free so we could finally be together. He came to my balcony while I was saying how much I loved him. Now he must think I’m a hussy, but I told him I don’t normally fall in love with people this easily. I told him I was only interested in a true-love relationship; I only want Romeo if he truly loves me for me. He told me he will send a note to be delivered telling me where to meet, so we could finally rid ourselves of our feuding names, and get married.

Sincerely,

Juliet Capulet
