Haha sorry. I'm mainly referring to my school, where there were/are almost no essays longer than 500 words.

Well damn, I kinda wish I went to your high school. The only benefit about having to write 6 and 8 page papers in high school was now it's easy for me to pull out 5 or 6 page papers every few weeks in college.

I rate he probably listens to MCR when people aern't looking and has a huge fringe covering his one eye.

"Emo" is an American made pop culture marketing phenomenon, not a centuries-old piece of respected literary artwork.

Hmm, can you say wikipedia Never mind my "essay" is now done.

Basically I debated how Romeo's downfall was not death but rather his cause in the imbalance of power between Capulet/Montague families when he meets Juliet. his other flaw is his insatiable blood lust which causes him banishment.
