Friday Off

I wish we had Fridays off more often. I got SO much work done today. Having three days to do something really takes the stress off of the work.

Dos Quotes for All Y'all

"Nobody but the dead know whether all these things people talk about are worth dying for or not. And the dead can't talk."

I think this quote really wraps up the end of book one. I think it might also be foreshadowing because Joe often likens himself to the dead (and I'm aloud to say that because I haven't started book two).

"He thought why don't they take him out and shoot him while there's still something worth while in him?"

This one really captures his attitude in book one. OK I lied there's one more quote I want to share but we may have already mentioned it in class.

"Maybe nothing was real not even himself oh god and wouldn't that be wonderful."

Synthesis

Before the introduction I was really nervous for the Synthesis Essay, but now that I realize that its just an argument essay that uses specific sources...it's a piece of cake! And I think it'll actually be easier for us to write this one because there's less worries about whether or not our sources are legit you know?
