The Trial

Dear Journal,
Today was a very stressful but relieving day. We arrived at the court and there stood Shylock ready to have a pound of flesh from Antonio. He was about to cut it from his chest when the Judge stoped him after reading the bond very carfully and it said that not one drop of blood could be drawn. That hesitated Shylock, who ended up not getting the pound of flesh ebcuase it was too risky.
After the trial, many pounds of stress were releaved and i felt like one of the luckiest guy in the world. Shylock was told that he had to convert his ways intothe Christan lifestyle. This day couldnt get much better...

The Ship's mishap

Dear Journal,
Antonio had recieved a letter today including the fact that the ships had been wrecked/sunk. Trying to get the money to pay back Shylock would be a hassle. This was now our nightmare. Antonio has to now think about what he could do to pay shylock the money back, or else Shylock will take a pound of flesh ( look at the information about act 3). Bassanio is very worried and feels guilty about his best friend being at risk. The trial is comming up and the thought of Antonio being hurt is just killing me.
