Romeo and Juliet Reflection

Last week, Mr.Dahl required us to memorize a paragraph of lines from the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet. This was a very hard task to do, since the play was written in the medieval ages, the English language during that time was very different from what we have today. Therefore it increased the difficulty of the memorizing process. I personally myself did not do very well on this project. Before going up and performing, I could actually memorize the paragraph pretty well, but right after I got up, my mind just went blank. As I memorized five or six lines of the paragraph, I had to read with the paper for the rest since I could not remember a thing in the paragraph. Memorizing the paragraph was already a pretty hard task to do, and now having to go up in front of the class and present it out adds up the difficulty. After finishing the performance, I felt regretful for not spending more time on memorizing the paragraph. Since I guess I got want I deserved, not enough time was spent on the memorizing process which led me to this result.
