Dear Romeo Montague
Your taking love to fast. Your sudden choices are causing multiple disastrous events to occur. Accept and wisely use the advice others surrounding you give you. Prevent your idiotic and immature behavior from causing anything else tragic.
Your dearest cousin, Benvolio has attempted to cheer you up during your weeping and depressing times for Rosaline. He said " Sups the fair Rosaline whom thou so loves, With all the admired beauties of Verona. Go thither, and with unattainted eye Compare her face with some that I shall show, And I will make thee think thy swan a crow. " He really means that for know, you are just hypnotized by Rosaline's appealing beauty. There are more fair women compared to her. She is not the only beautiful swan in Verona. Your foremost friend, Mercutio as also gave you love advice, by saying, "If love be rough with you, be rough with love. Prick love for pricking, and you beat love down." He wishes for you to be more heroic towards love. Do not let love win the battle, don't let love bring you down. As a result, you should not assume that if someone rejects you, the world will end.
Knowledgeable Friar Lawrence has also gave you some beneficial and wise advise. He said, " Young men do not love with their hearts, but their eyes." You have not fallen in love with Juliet, truly in your heart, but simple your memorized by her beautiful appearance, which is why you are loving with your eyes. Friar Lawrence has also said " Wisely and slow. They stumble that run fast." He really means that if you run to fast, you will trip. Handle situations wisely and slowly. I understand, that you are overly joyful, that you have found someone who loves you in return. You do not want to lose her, so you immediatly married her and made Juliet your own. It is understandable you do not want to experience a sad time again. You need to spend some time with Juliet, and know her personalty and her heart, not just looks. Don't be fooled by a few words. How do you really know she loves you?
Overall Romeo, think before you take action. Give situations some thought. Before you know it ,one horrible deed you commit, leads to another repugnant day,

After finding out about the repulsive astroid named Ardor is going to crush earth in two months, Andy, Anita, Peter, and Eliza's life has been changed completely, and theirs no stopping it. Ardor has drastically changed the teenagers life in a positive way.
Anita is a normal teenager. She is done what she is told. Her parent's goals are for her to success in academics and life. Anita has never failed a test. She has been listening and living her ways of life by her parents ever since. However after hearing about Ardor, her life is turned the opposite direction. "You still have time to get it done." says Suzy, the guidance counselor. What Suzy is trying got say is, even though the world is ending, it doesn't not mean Anita should spend her time whining about death. Suzy has probably understood that Anita is not really the girl who wants to be successful at academics. She has something else she wants to be and Suzy is encouraging her to accomplish it. Anita takes that advice, and does something very unexpected. She joins hands with Andy, a senior who skips classes, and doesn't pay attention to anything in school. In other words, someone who's the complete opposite of her. "You'll play music, and Ill sing ok? Also I need to move in with you." Anita and Andy are not completely different. They both see light in music. Anita fulfills her dreams of being a singer, with the help of Andy and Ardor.
Andy is a worry free boy. He skips classes as often as he can. He also visits the guidance counselor numerous times. Andy has a taste for music. He plays instruments and sings, with his friend Bobo. Andy is determined to get his crush Eliza's attention. After he hears about Ardor, Andy's mind changes. He slowly becomes closer to Anita. He soon lets Eliza join with Peter. "Andy feels guilty for not letting Anita know he lover her." This quote is showing that he realizes that Anita is right for him, and Eliza is right for Peter. Anita and Andy should be together as music soul mates. Therefore Anita has changed Andy.

The Miserable Mill by Lemony Snicket
The Miserable Mill by Lemony Snicket is a part of a series called the Unfortunate Events. Lemony Snicket writes about 3 brave children who who are orphaned after they lose their parents in a fire accident. The Baudelaire children Violet, Klaus, and Sunny are watched by there coughing caretaker Mr. Poe, until they find a suitable home. The only problem is that the Baudelaire children are being watched by a greedy villain named Count Olaf. The eye obsessed villain will do anything to adopt the children and take away there parents wealth. This book is a bout how the Baudelaire children adopted by a mill owner, and they have to work and suffer in a mill. Lemony Snicket writes that "this is the most unfortunate book of them all." Although this is a depressing book, it has some positive parts. The Baudelaire children show us that no matter how miserable and unfortunate their situation is, there are always optimistic and positive solutions floating around.
Being around with optimistic people makes you feel positive. In the story, and elder mill worker, who accompanies the children are really generous to them. " Phil is an optimistic person. Unlike others, if he lost a left leg he would say, Oh at least I still have my right leg.", write Snicket. This quote shows that Phil is a very open and positive person. He doesn't mind that he has to work hard cutting wood and working gin a mill. He doesn't care that he has to eat casseroles every dinner and a 5 minute chewing gum break everyday during work. Phil is the wise person in the story. He accepts that his life won't get better no matter what he does, so Phil copes with it. The Baudelaire children get for joyful interacting with Phil and being around the other workers.
Most people sob when they are reminded of someone's death. However The Baudelaire children are different. Almost everyday the Baudelaire children remind themselves about the happy times they spent with their parents. "Violet recalled the day Mr. Poe came to the beach to give the devastating news about there parents death. Klaus thinks about their giant library where he would read any book he wants." This quote is representing that even though they are orphans, reminding themselves about their parents help the children's emotions get happier.
When you do something you enjoy, it helps through the awful times. Violet is an inventor. She knows that in any situation a quick invention can be helpful. Violet goes around inventing things to keep her joyful. Klaus is a very smart 12 year old. He can read any book, no matter how hard the words are. This helps Klaus stay entertained and positive. In the book Klaus does not have access to a library, so he goes to the boss's house and finds a book about eyes to read. Sunny Baudelaire is the youngest to them all. I am surprised that as a baby she does not whine and cry for her mom, like more babies. She has a language of her own, and understands any situation. She also has a hobby of chewing things, with her sharp and strong teeth. These examples are showing that not all parts of your life are miserable, and that you can find something to do that you will enjoy.
In conclusion, the Baudelaire children's life get more unfortunate after every book. I decided to focus on the points that are positive because I want to show the other side for the book. This book can be read by kids, teens, and adults. They can learn that during hard situations, if you use your brain to find a positive solution. You should open up to the positive part of your world.
