Alternative Endings To The Play Julius Caesar By William Shakespeare Which I Came Up With While Waiting For The !@#$%^&* Movie To Stop Lagging. 1. Instead of plotting to kill Caesar, Cassius thinks, “What the hell is this country coming to?!” and emigrates to Australia. 2. Mark Antony runs off with Calphurnia. After all, he has been allowed to touch her. Solves the problem of the paranoid wife and the bent-on-revenge successor. 3. Caesar oversleeps; doesn’t make it to the capital in time; has to stand outside the discipline room for two periods. the Senate thinks, “What the hell? We don’t want a tardy Emperor.” And they crown Cinna the Poet instead. 4. A second servant comes back in and says, “Aaaah wait a minute my Lord. We found the heart of the beast. Apparently what we were looking at was its gall bladder. So everything’s okay. You can go to the Senate.” 5. Artemidorus begs Caesar to read his letter and Caesar goes, “Eh? Something about me? Gimme! IwannaseeIwannasee!” 6. As Caska goes to stab Caesar, he trips on his own robe and stabs Cassius instead. Thankful for killing the man he fears, Caesar rewards Caska and calls him “the most noble Roman of all”. 7. Cassius sees Titinius enclosed by rejoicing men on the battlefield. They are actually cheering, because they have won, but Cassius misinterprets it and thinks that they are enemies who have captured Titinius, meaning they have lost the war. Without even double checking he kills himself. Wait no, this really was how it ended. Yes, it was that ridiculous. Worse than Romeo and Juliet, I tell you. 8. The ghost of Caesar enters Brutus’s tent and tells him, “Actually, I’ve got the Philosopher’s Stone. You can’t touch me. Avada Kedavra!!!” 9. … Shakespeare must be turning in his grave right now. (:
INTRODUCING
Name: Louise
13 April 1992
You can only call me Lulu if you don’t think the name’s funny.
I am a member of the Smiley Conspiracy and a proud ex-CHS-ian, graduating class of 2009. Now doing A-Levels at HELP University College. Is proudly Malaysian, but doesn’t look like it and is proud of that too.
This is the 7th time I am editing this about section of the blog this year; I have sort of accepted that my personality is ever-evolving, ever-changing, therefore rendering my moods as volatile as the weather. But just as there are some things that have stood untouched across the centuries by harsh weather, so there are some things with me that remain ever the same: a belief that to live is to learn, and the ability to bounce back from setbacks.
What I love also remains constant. I love good food, dancing, fresh experiences, open minds and friendly people, all of which can be found in the wonderful wonderful city that is Istanbul. I love musicals, plays, good books, stickers, owls, colourful wrapping paper, hugs and kisses, chocolates, almost any music from the 17th to the 21st century, intense debates and post-it notes.
Fictional characters I have been compared to (in terms of personality) are Piglet from Winnie The Pooh and Kelsi from High School Musical.
I dream of finishing this list [29/8/2010: list is undergoing revamp!], and my secret ambition is to become a hairdresser or bartender. Unfortunately I’m also incredibly kiasu, so I’m going to go to university just to show everyone that I can. But want to go to uni also because I love learning lah!
Words that describe me are impulsive, impetuous, quixotic, sanguine, quirky, bewildered, kiasu and hodgepodge. The last one also refers to my sense of fashion.
*GRINS* :D
