Prompt: Summarize What you just read
Anne is starting to think of Jake again and is starting to feel something towards him. She's starting to love him again. Anne starts experiencing dreams where she sees him and he just leaves her. She doesn't want to feel love toward Jake since he already broke up with her. Anne wants to feel strong and not be hurt or sad when she thinks or hears of Jake. Anne starts to realize she can't try and not get emotional when she's acting shy and won't socialize.
Anne puts aside all those feelings. But, she starts to get depressed as time goes on, after the call. Anne gets a phone call from her family. All on different extensions, so after one person it's the next. Pamela, her litte sister, tells her everything's all right and that she's studying. Anne thinks that she's failing a class though. Her mom says when she comes back Anne and her were going to start "bonding". Then, Anne and her dad start talking. Anne's hero was her father. Since her mom was depressed and crying when Anne was little. She is ok now but her Dad was the only one she depended on. After a little serious talk her dad said bye and she felt no particular emotion towards it.
After a few weeks more there. Anne started having more feelings, unknown feelings. She was then invited to Nancy's "party". Anne went there with Cheryl and the rest of the girls. There they had wine and played poker. Nancy smoked and drank wine while dealing out the cards. As the night went on and the wine bottle got lighter and lighter, Anne had a little too much to drink. Anne started joking around and they started throwing things at each other. Anne felt like all of them were friends and she finally fit in. Which she didn't want at all. Then, the next morning, they were called to Ms. Landing's office.
Carlos,
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your blog this week! I think you summarized the story in a very interesting way, and now, I am intrigued to read your book! I really liked how you talked about Anne's phone calls to her family members, and how they all talked about different things with her about the same subject! One question I have for you is, why did Anne and Jake break up, and why is Anne so scared to love him again? Did they have a terrible past? Overall, great blog this week, and I hop I will be reading your book soon!
Carlos, The beginning reminds me of the stirrings in the giver! I have noticed that the father happens to be the strong figure in the family (guys shouldn't cry). I loved the blog this week!
