Sometimes I feel - so lonely for one." and this idea is presented as contradictory because the man is surrounded by American trees and by representations of different cultures such as food from Germany and Mexico.

3. If you were one of the friends of Romeo and/or Juliet, what would have been your advice to him or her ?

pychu [463]

If I were friends with Romeo or Juliet I would tell them how I see it and how I see their relationship ending. I would inform them that it’s not the brightest idea, I would tell them not to rush things and maybe take it a little slower. I would tell them to wait until they were older to make decisions for themselves, and I would tell them to be patient with life.
