The similarities between my life during high school and after is that I will still end up going to school for a good amount tying to studying what I want to become. There will also be times when I am stressed out whether iits during school or after. Another relationship that is shared with both timings is that I am going to still be responsible and even more after high school. Although life might turn out the same or different it doesn’t change the way that we do things.

What’s so great about Gatsby
-Gatsby is good to Daisy but some times is the greatest because he seems to be overprotective and almost obsessed to have her and whatever he wants ,acting two faced and hid who he really was.
-I don’t think Nick is so honest because he talks behind people’s backs. He is constantly hanging out with dishonest people because they’re rich and are alway talking about rumors. He respects them and seeks out relationships with them because they all have something in common and hide information that no one knows.
-The author introduces Tom and Daisy as he did because they didn’t care or took serious their relationship as if they were forced to be together. They also tend to fight a lot and get other people involved who then ends up trying to come up with a solution which makes them careless. I do agree that they were careless because none of them took each other seriously and especially their daughter.
-I do not really understand Daisy’s behavior because she seems to be bipolar throughout the book. I do not agree to the choices she had made because she wouldn’t take precaution of who and what were her surroundings or thought about the outcome of her decisions. She isn’t someone who I’ll let date someone I know because she can end up leaving them for someone else and isn’t mature enough.
-The last sentence of the book means that you can’t change who you are no matter what you’ll end up being who you actually are. This relates to the theme of the book and to the characters because the say and shows someone who they aren’t but try to act as if they were them just for show.

RICH PEOPLE & BACKWARD THINKING
Nick appears as a sexist and racist character by relying onto the way he talks to someone. His way of explaining something sounds in a serious threatening way. In the story he says “Here’s your money. Go and buy ten more dogs with it.” As a way to getting something he doesn’t want to buy like if he was force to buy it.
