The Wedding


Demetrius and I just had our wedding, along with Hermia, Lysander, Theseus, and Hippolyta. It was amazing... all the people, and the gorgeous venue and I am finally wed to my one true love. After the wedding,Theseus decided that for entertainment we would all get together and watched a bunch of carpenters perform their version of Pyramus and Thisbe. It was an interesting show, I believe it was supposed to be a tragedy, because two people die, but some of it was quite funny! My favourite part was when Pyramus stabs himself and he just keeps saying that he’s dying! I mean who would actually do that in real life! I thought it was a good play though, for the time they had to prepare it and after everything, the wedding and all of the drama that’s been going on since we entered that forest, it was nice to just relax and watch a play.
It’s been a roller coaster this week, going into the forest, fighting with Hermia, the weird love situation, between Lysander, Demetrius, Helena and I. But now that it’s all over, and I don’t have to worry about it I can relax with my hubby, my love, my only Demetrius.

Finally!


He truly loves me, Demetrius’ love is true. After falling asleep in the forest and waking up to see Egeus and the Duke there with Hippolyta it was quite a shock, but I guess since its May Day, I should have expected it. Egeus demanded that Hermia come back into town and marry Demetrius, but he stood up and Demetrius confessed his love for me, and not Hermia! Lysander also stood up and told that he was in love with Helena, and always will be,I was so shocked! Just a few hours ago Lysander was telling me that he loved me, and was a fool for loving Hermia. But now that means that Demetrius actually loves me! Oh happy day
Now we are all friends again, and I am so very excited, because we are all getting married tomorrow along with Theseus and Hippolyta. And fortunately, Hermia and I are not fighting anymore, because I don’t know if I could take any more of us not talking, its just too much. I assumed she was the one making them play these tricks, but she was just as confused as I. Everything is working out, and my life is finally taking its path.

So confused !


As I predicted, Demetrius followed them into the forest to win back Hermia. I begged and pleaded for him, to love me again but he got frustrated with me and left in the middle of the forest! I was upset, tired and alone, from all the running I had to do to catch up with him, and even though I do love him, he can be a tad malicious at some points. After Demetrius left me in the forest willingly I came upon Lysander, lying on the ground and I thought he was dead! So out of fear for Hermia, (where is she by the way?) I started waking him, and when he woke he was saying strange things as if, he thought I was Hermia. He was saying vows that should have been said to Hermia.
He was mocking me! I know it; he was making fun of me because Demetrius does not love me. Saying things like he loved me, and he was a fool because he loved Hermia. And on top that off, Demetrius also started along with Lysander, calling me a nymph, a goddess. What rude intentions made them make fun of me?!It had to be Hermia, she probably got angry at me for telling Demetrius, and following them, so she made Lysander make fun of me!

Lonely in Love


Why can I never have what I want? My dear friend Hermia is in love with her perfect man, Lysander. Though she has a love, Demetrius chooses her over me. Why must she have two lovers, when I can have none? I love Demetrius, and he used to love me back, for we used to be engaged. We were happy and lived a great life together. Until the day that he spotted eyes for Hermia, and her father requested that she marry him. I have been heartbroken ever since, and wishing for him to love me again. I can never be mad at Hermia though because she has not done anything, and we are best friends. But I do wish to be like her, to be as fair as her, I need her to teach me the ways to win over Demetrius’ heart.
Hermia refuses to marry Demetrius, and for disobeying orders she must be put to death or into a nunnery, and I would never want any of those on Hermia. So Lysander and Hermia told me of their plans to run away together and get married, far away from Athens. I have thought of a great idea to tell Demetrius him what they are planning, and out of love he will follow them. And maybe for my telling of their plans, he will think of me fairer.
