I'm bored.

I'm also kinda pissed...so here goes my rant.

A friend of mine has to read a rip off of Romeo and Juliet for her summer reading. It is basicly about two teenagers who fall deeply in love.

Now this just pisses me off. Romeo and Juilet is not about true love. It is about true passion.

I read the book twice. I know. Believe me. Shakespeare is one of my passions.

Romeo and Juliet is about two foolish children who got caught up in the excitement of a forbidden affair and killed themselves in the end NOT BECAUSE OF LOVE, but because of guilt.

SO this is what I have to say to the author of this book and all of the idiots who do similar things, like write songs about "finding their romeo."

READ THE ******** BOOK.
