blog fun part 2

I think that Phoebe is such and important person to Holden she is still very innocent in his eyes and thats why he is so close to her. In the book Phoebe shows you why Holden is the way he is. It shows you why he hates the grown up world and why he likes children so much. I thinks its because he likes the innocence of children and how they have not been completly molded to the people that the world wants them to be, they are still who they want to be. I just kind of wonder how holden is going to feel about Phoebe when she does start to grow up and become more like everyone else, which I think she already is starting that process. I am not sure if he will like when she does let her innocence go.....while your looking at this you should notice that I bloged last week and change that in powerschool :)

Blog Fun!

Ok so here is the thing....its so werid lately I have been seeing my world through holdens eyes. I have started to notice all the "Phonies", and its weird. I am not as bad as Hodlen to when I think almost everyone is one, but there is deffeintely a lot of them out there if you just open you eyes. From my good freinds to the adults and church I see so many phonies. When he said those things he wasnt being as dramatic as I thought....if you just open your eyes you can start to see what he means.

"The best thing, though, in the museum was that everything always stayed right where it was. Nobody'd move. You could go there a hundred times, and that eskimo would still be just finished catching those two fish, and the birds would be on there way south, the deers would still be drinking ouf of the water hole, with their pretty antlers and their pretty, skinny legs, and the squaw with the naked bosom would still be weaving that same blanket. Nobody'd be different. The only thing that would be different would be you. " -page 121. I think that this passage shows us so much about Holden. It really shows us he is a thinker and has so much more then you assume he is. Deep inside Holden is kind of sensitive in a way. I think that change is something that bothers him, he would perfer things to be like they used to be... he wants to go back to when he was a child I think. I don't blame he his life kind of sucks right now. I just really like that passage/ quote, in a way I think that we all relate to what he is trying to get accross in this and its good stuff.

Another Blog!

As I read Catcher In the Rye I think that I understand Holden is really not that as person that I first made him out to be. I used to think that he was just a trouble maker with no reasons to be doing the things that he was doing but I realized that he is a much more then that. He has gone through a lot in his very young life, to me he is a lot more independent then myself and others around me and that where I was not right. I thought he was childish but is he really beyond his years and thats why get gets so frustrated with others. He jsut confuses me but I am starting to figure this kid out

Right now I am very confused on the Holden as a person. Even more so then I was when I first began to read. I hope that very soon we start to see why he is the person he is now because he is not as straight forward as alot of the characters we read about to watch today. We need more insight to he past to see why he act the way he is now. Or we need to meet more characters of people who are in his life, like his mother or father. I am very intrested to see what happens to Holden because of his attitude so we will have to see.

Big Question- week 2

It is evident that Holdent struggle with being in the middle age of being and adult and child firstly because he has very chid like habbits. Like how he act towards other people he likes to pick fights with other guys and that is childish behavior. He aslo would not being making all of these mistakes like dropping out of high school if he was in an adult mind set. He would be trying to look towards the feature and not mess up his life at such a young age. Holden is like an adult in the way the to me he is pretty independent, like I don't think that I could work up the courage to leave school and go to New York alone, I would be way to scared. I also think that if he tried he could be way more mature then he acts, just by reading the things he thinks. Some of the things he does that are childish he knows he is doing so atleast he knows what he is doing, its a first step. Just in the book you can see that he wants to be an adult, because he is always trying to act like he is one and hates it when he look his own age. When moving to adulthood I think teens struggle with wanting to be a grown up but not wanting to act like one to. We wan't to be treated like one but don't want to stilll have the responsibilties of being children. I think that Holden struggles with that aslo. Another struggle is that some of us want to act like adults before we are ready to, which I think is exactly what Holden is going through.

2nd blog!

Holden needs to stop talking about people and being so rude. He also needs to stop holding what he thinks inside, he is sending of such mixed signals to people, that why he got into a fight. I know he hurt about his brother but if he does not shape up soon he is going to miss and loose so much more then he already has... he is already seting himself up for a feature that know one wants.

First Blog

I think that Holden is very confused about himself and has a negative out look on everything in life. He needs to grow up a little, becuase he act like a child sometimes. He is very immature and that probably comes from things we don't know about yet. I just think he kind of already gave up on himself and others. He needs to find something that changes his whole outlook on life.
