Juliet's Emotions in Act 2 Scene 2 of 'Romeo and Juliet' by William Shakespeare

Juliet goes through a wide range of emotions in Act 2 Scene 2. At first, she sighs and says, "ay me" showing that she is wistful, dreamy and obviously thinking about Romeo.

She definitely doesn't want to part from him but is excited and can't wait for tomorrow. "Good-night, good-night! Parting is such sweet sorrow, That I shall say good-night till it be morrow." Juliet exits at this point and goes inside very happy and dreaming about Romeo, much like she was at the beginning of the scene.
