chapters 3-5 of the Great Gatsby! mmmm aka boring book;]
Well lets see it all starts That this Nick guy moves to New York to a little place called West egg. H had a neighbor who is known as Jay Gatsby and he is known for his parties thrown every Saturday.I thought it was pretty chill that he throws parties every Saturday! I would totally go! but anyways so one day this Gatsby dude goes to Nick and invited him to this party he has. He doesn't really feel comfortable and doesn't know anyone. I mean i would feel the same i feel everyone thinks they are to good for each other. Anyways so he starts talking to this girl Jordan, an is really starting to feel her despite the fact that she is all dishonest. Next Chapter, Gatsby invites Nick to lunch so they go to New York and eat. Gatsby starts telling nick about his past which nick i feel is not feeling it and totally thinks he is a lier!! I also think that even though Nick said he wasn't judging that freak is totally because he is all saying this and that about people. So then Gatsby gets stop then Nick hoes with Jordan. It also talks about how daisy was with Tom during the war but then went with Gatsby. Next chapter which is 5, Nick goes on a date with Jordan and when he was getting home Gatsby surprises him and invited him to go out swimming or something like that.I don't understand why that Gatsby dude keeps wanting to talk and be with Nick.He then offers him a job to work in like the business area.Then they have a meeting and it starts to rain and Gatsby is freaking out. I don't really understand the last chapter but its an alright boring book.

why should i not read my story thing....
1. Why are you apprehensive about sharing your writing?
2. What do you fear about sharing your writing?
3. What is the best case scenerio that could occur today when you share your writing?
4. What is the worst case scenario that could occur today when you share your writing?
Okai so i think that we should share but in a smaller group about 5 people each, and you could chose out groups so we wont go in our as you say comfort zone. I'm so apprehensive about my writing because i don't think sharing what i write about with the whole class and hearing what they have to say about it, is going to help me much. I mean ill do it but i prefer not to. I think that I'm most fearful about hearing what people think about it. The best case scenario is that they tell me i;m a good writer, and the worst is them laughing at it even if they are"kidding." But i guess your the teacher and your do what ever.

The cold make me want to.....January 10th 2011
Okai so the cold makes me want to go and punch someone!! It makes my back hurt and it makes me want to curl up in a blanket and NOT come to school. I wish the weather woulds never go under like 30 degress I really like the summer and sping! I guess i like the snow but i wish it would melt alway. I really hate the wind that is the whole reason it is cold! I dont like cold mornings!! This weekend wasnt good and the cold doesnt help!! I dont like the fact that this school is sooo dang far! The only thing i like about the cold is wearing boots and pretty scarvs and pretty jackets:]

Fredrick Douglass reaction:]]
Well i guess i suck at writing according to you:]. In my comments it says i am difficult to understand, and it makes it had to follow my argument. My thesis statement was OK. I guess i need help. Anyways i get really confused on the essays i have to write for this class. I also thought the reference thing was right i guess not. I also need help with my capitalization's and proper nouns. So hopefully i write better next time:].

The Awakining..
Well i didn't think this book was half bad. I mean it ruined one day of my brake but the rest of the days recovered for it. So this book is about this lady who has 6 kids with this man who is always working. This society was built on how women should always be at home taking care of her kids and the man should always be working maintaining a stable family and all. This made me real mad because why should girls always get stuck with staying at home trying to make a perfect life when that's not what ever girl wants. I'm so glad its not like that today and women could do what ever they want. I'm not saying that women shouldn't take care of there family because they should but i think there is a certain extent of what they contribute to the family. So she never really complaint about her husband just the fact that she didn't like how all the things worked out. Her husband was very controlling and he wouldn't want her doing anything besides be at home taking care of her kids. This made her think a lot of how life should really be and if she should just always be focusing on her family and totally forget on what mattered to her. So she finally grows a back bone and she leaves her house i thought it was sad about how the little boy wanted to go with her. So then she gets her own house:] This made me smile because for her to be independent is big at this time because you would never hear a women would leave there family. So then she moves out and then she has a secret relationship with this mad Robert:] I think its good that she is doing what she wants now. It made me happy that they loved each other so much! then well she dies and then it was a weird ending. .............The End.
