My favorite character in Romeo + Juliet.


I think Romeo + Juliet has some good performances, especially the one from Tybalt(John Legyzamo) and Mercutio(Harold Perrineau). i really felt they were performing well their character, but The Nurse(Miriam Margolyes) for me is one of the characters that give some comic touch. Miriam Margolyes for me is the best actress for this character since that's the way I imagined the nurse in Romeo & Juliet, a fat woman with a gentle face. She also makes exagerated expressions which gives it a touch of a pplay where everything is exagerated. By far Miriam Margolyes as the Nurse is not a miscast as other characters in the movie.

Penelope Cruz my favorite actress


At the time I thought who my favorite actor/actress was, the first person it came to my mind was Scarlett Johansson since I think she is cute and sexy, so I then thought in Kate Winslet, since she is a really good actress, but lacks of prettiness. Finally I realized that Penelope Cruz is cute and a good actress, so she is my favorite actress. I’ve seen several of her movies and she can interpret any character with no problem. In Vanilla Sky she is only a cute woman, in Volver, where she was nominated to an Oscar for Best Leading Role Actress, she is a mom and in Vicky Christina Barcelona where she got an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress is a totally crazy woman. Another thing that makes her my favorite is that she can speak English with a Spaniard accent but still understandable. Also she doesn´t look quite a diva that only acts in movies with great productions now that she’s recognized all around the world, since she still makes movies with less budget like Elegy and still makes a good acting. Penelope Cruz is a good actress and also is considered a sexy one, as selected by the magazine askmen.com as the 7th of the Top 99 Women in 2010.

It wasn´t as bad as I thought.

Today I’m, as most of my weekends, with my father fixing any problem that people make after leaving one of my father’s apartments. This time they left a shower completely unusable, since the valve is no longer at his place. My father is telling me how to fix it, but I don´t pay attention. I´m really not interested in doing it. I could be doing any other thing by this time like watching TV, playing a videogame or being with friends. So my father binds me to do it by yelling at me. Sometimes I think he makes me do this type of things just to bother me. I have no other way than fix it, so I try a few times and after being severely scolded, the shower is Ok.

Days later, I take a bath after saying good bye to my family who left me alone. After putting some shampoo on my head, I open the valve and something unexpected happened. The valve was removed by my hand from the wall and now the water was not coming from the shower but from the wall where the valve used to be. I immediately got scared and tried to put the valve back to its place, but was completely impossible. I took the towel and closed the master valve, then went back to the shower and realized what happened. I found a replacement and fixed it. As I restarted to take my shower I realized that I couldn´t have resolved that problem if it weren´t for what my father had taught me. And that my father made me do those type of things because he doesn´t want me to be a good for nothing, but above all because he loves me.
