Some pretty heavy stuff is going on. Juliet is almost being forced into a marriage at gunpoint. There have been deaths and murders to close friends and valued relatives.
To top it off Juliet is only 14 and Romeo 17. No wonder the Nurse tries to make her laugh. I don't know about you, but I like gallows humor.

This is to inform any interested students that there will be a donation drive for the victims of the recent floods and landslides that occurred in Uttarakhand. Nothing is less or not worthy. So, please make sure to donate anything you can. It can be money, books, clothes, toys, medicines, food, anything.
The donation drive will be initiated by each class monitor starting from next week. There will be a box kept in each classroom for the students to drop off their donations. Feel free to contact any of the class monitors if you have any queries.

Irony is when something happens that the audience was not expecting. For example, if you hurt yourself using a bandage this is ironic because a bandage is usually used to help someone heal and the bandage was used to hurt you.
