Act 1 Scene 1:

Dear Diary, Well today was just another normal day. I was just walking around with Dad and Kat when two men, like always, came up stating to be suitors to me and that they want to date me and marry me and blah blah blah. I'm so sick of this. I want to get married so bad, but dad's rules are so strict. I can hear him now "Bianca, I know you are unhappy alone and want to get married, but not until we find someone for Kat first." GAH! I hate that. I don't understand why Kat can't just deal with the fact that she has to marry at some point and settle down. Eventually a man will tame her and then she will be calm and I will get to be happy at last. But for right now, she scares my men away, back-talks Dad, and refuses to do her studies. It gets really old after a while. Well, I guess it's time for sleep....who knows what kind of crazy things will happen tomorrow. Hopefully my favorite....studying and practicing my music. BLAH! -Bianca

Act 2 Scene 1:

Dear Diary, That's it! I swear one more attack on me from my sister and I'm gonna flip!!!! Today she had the nerve to come up to me, asking me about my suitors. That wasn't that bad in itself (just annoying), but that was just the beginning.....I calmly told her to leave me alone and she just snapped! she tied me up and started screaming at me, asking who I liked most, which suitor I preferred, blah blah blah, and I was just helpless. I was convinced to not give in to her wicked ways and I didn't tell her a thing....so she SLAPPED me! I swear if I wasn't tied up.....but I was. Finally Daddy came in and saved me. He sees how crazy Kat is just as much as me! I didn't have much involvement in the rest of the day, but I did observe a lot....The group of suitors came to the house again, but this time with a new one. Of course, I assumed him to be for me, but then he started telling Daddy about how he was here for Katherine.....KATHERINE! I have to say, I was happy, but shocked!!! The two of them had a long talk in the other room about an actual marriage! I heard a lot of yelling, and didn't really know what about until the came out and Petrucio announced their plan to marry on Sunday! I was both shocked and thrilled...finally a man for my wretched old sister. -Bianca

Act 3 scene 1:

Dear Diary, Well even though today was just focused on schooling and such, I did have two new teachers :) I was most definitely drawn towards the one more than the other. Right off the bat, I could tell that Litio was far less attractive than Tranio, but I kept trying to tell myself that they are just teachers, and not to get caught up in looks. Well the two put on a quite humorous show for me, fighting for my attention and all. I was far more interested in learning from Cambio first, though. He was teaching me from a Latin paragraph, in which he so smoothly placed is true intent and his own sweet words. I will admit that there was a liiiiitle bit of flirting between us ;), but of course there will be....I told him, however, that even though I can't hide the fact that I am impressed by him, I do not yet trust him. He respected that, and then it was Litio turn. He too, tried to share his intentions through his lesson by putting love lyrics in his song he was teaching, but he was not near as charming as Cambio. I turned him down rather quickly. Poor boy, his sad heart is probably breaking as I write. But oh well, I can't like them all. :) I can't wait to see what Cambio has to teach tomorrow!!!!!! -Bianca

Act 4, scene 2:

Dear Diary, Ding dong the witch got married!!!!! hahahahhaha! I am soooo glad that my sister is finally hitched. It is such a relief....now I can finally be truly interested in finding a husband of my own. I give the best wishes to my sister and the best luck to her husband.....So now I just have to decide which one of these gentlemen I like the most! :) My instinct is automatically saying "CAMBIO CAMBIO". Even though he's just a school teacher, he s the sweetest, most sincere man. And I can tell he really likes me....there's a twinkle in his eye that I see when he stares at me. Lucentio, his "lord" is far more wealthy, though. I considered for a while switching my favoritism towards him. Especially when he looked so mad that me and Cambio were flirting. He looked rather distraught, almost as if he had sent Cambio to woo me for himself. I don't know all that's going on, but I'm definitely more attracted, interested, and intrigued towards Cambio. AND he speaks Latin...ooooohhhh, romaaaantiiiiic ;) hahaha I am so so glad that Litio is out of the picture. It seems as though he is going to move on quite quickly. He seemed a little upset that he didn't get my love, but oh well. Like I said before, you can't have them all! :) -Bianca

Act V, scene 1 and 2:

Dear Diary, So I escaped super fast to the bathroom real quick cause I just HAD to write this now.....I love marriage! I love marriage! I love marriage! I love marriage! I love marriage! Have I mentioned that I LOVE being married?! I know it hasn't been long at all, but I am so thrilled that I am finally a wife! I finally have a husband! I have to admit, though, I was very shocked when I saw that Cambio was actually not a school teacher, but actually Lucentio, and was very rich on top of being a sweetheart! It confused me for a little, but then it didn't matter. I was just happy to have a man. I really do love him, though. I always dreamt of being in love, and it is sooooo much better than i expected. My whole life seems complete now! On our way out, I did say Petruccio and Kate off in the crowd! I can't wait to talk to her and hear all her glorious married life stories....that is, if she's changed. Which, by the kiss I saw going on, seems like a VERY good possibility ( wink wink ;) ) Well I should go to my reception....i'll write more tonight!!!!!! Well the banquet started off well.....YES, a banquet thrown by my RICH HUSBAND!!!! hahaha I still can't believe it....It was only nice and peaceful for a litlle while, though. Im still surprised that I actually thought something would be calm and collected in my life haha. Hortensio's new wife apparently doesn't like him as much as she should because she got in QUITE the little teasing fest with Petruccio about Hortensio. He had all the reason in the world to get mad at her....I can't imagine making fun of my husband on our wedding day. That was enough of a reason for me, Kat, and Hortensio's wife (I don't even know her name haha....i wasn't very fond of.....Sue....that's what I'll call her for now....) So anyways, the three of us went off to a different room to have some girl time and let the guys bond some. We were talking about all the great things that will come with married life and such. Kat was unusually quiet. It was weird to see her so calm. I thought that maybe she was just tired or sick or something. Then all of a sudden Biondello came in telling me that Lucentio wanted me to come, but didn't give me any reason. I told him that I was busy and didn't want to come, so he left. Then he came back, this time for "Sue". She too, said she was having too much fun with us and didn't want to leave. He left again. Not 5 minutes later, Grumio came in to get Kate. I almost fell over when she agreed to come. Then she came back to get the two of us....She seemed to be in a transe. It was so weird. Then he told her to take off her hat. She did. Then he told her to talk about the duties a wife ower her husband. SHE DID IT! she went on and on and on about how you need to do what they tell you and obey their every request and all this other stuff....it was absolutely ridiculous. She even went as far as to say that we are like she used to be! How dare she! I was thinking....I am nothing like her. Then that was the end of that and Lucentio and I left. I am so mad at Kat!!!!! but that's not what's important. I am a newly wed wife, and that's what I'm going to focus on. -Bianca
