Dear Diary,

Today was the biggest day of my life. Today was the day that I got to play Pyramus in one of the plays done at the theater. It was such an honor. I can't actually believe that I, Nick Bottom, a weaver, would get to play such a part in one of the most loved plays. Wow. Such an honor. My favorite part of being in the play was getting to practice and rehearse with all of the village people and getting to see the King, King Theseus. My least favorite part of being in this play was having to memorize all of my lines. Probably my favorite line was:" This die, I, thus, thus, thus.(stabs himself repeatedly, and falls.) Now I am dead, no am I fled; my soul is in the sky. Moon take thy flight. (exit starveling, with his lantern, bush, and dog.) Now die, die, die."I liked this line because I got to act. I really got to act. I had to act as if I was dying. It was hard for me because in a sense, I actually got to feel what it was like to die. It was kind of freaky though. If I could change one thing about the play write itself, it would be seeing the others characters more. I think being in the spotlight in this taught me is that you don't need to be famous and popular to really know who you as a person are, you don't have to have money to be happy, and when you get to have all of the fame, you wish you didn't have any fame at all.
