A Midsummer Night's Dream

I was picked first to suggest a play to read and I wasn't prepared at all I just looked down on the first page and picked A Midsummer Night Dream.  I realize now that was a mistake I wish I never would have suggested or voted for this play. I didn't enjoy much about this play at all it was so confusing and hard to read. Once I started reading it I just wanted to shut  my book and never look at it again. I had to purchase the translation book or I knew I would be doomed.  After I got it all translated it started to make sense and wasn't as bad since I knew what was going on. It had a happy ending and everyone was with the right person even after Hermia's father threatened to kill her if she didn't marry Demetrius.  With all the drama in the middle with Lysander and Demetrius falling in love with Helena I was worried everyone was gonna end up with the wrong person. I'm glad it got resolved and so happy I wont be reading that again. The movie was more interesting than the play so that wasn't so bad but they still talked funny and it was hard to understand.
