Post #5

Quote #1: "I stand up and follow julian out of the emergency room and down the hallway. The floor smells of human feces."
Page 312 Said by: Valentino

Response: I thought that this related to question to number 5. I thought that this quote was a little different becuase of just how they described it. I thought that this was wierd how he said it was how it smelt like human feces, its nasty but I thought it was wierd how Valentino said it. I thought that this quote stood out to me just because of how it described it in justo ne short sentance. I always like short sentances that can describe a lot.

Character Judgement: I thought that Valentino is my favorite character in this book because he has a lot of different quotes that are in this book. I like his character because I feel like he is a well known character and I remember him always from the book because I always choose his quotes.

Q#1: Why do you think Valentino described it like this?

Quote #2: "This is a problem," he says, and I know its true.

Response: I liked this quote because it was just how he says it in the book. I thought this quote related to number 5 again. I thought this because this quote was said because they do not have enough money for the hospital. I thought it was sad how he said it like this is a problem and I know its true. I just thought it was sad he could not afford it. So then causing them not being able to go into the hospital or pay for anything

Character Judgement: I like achor achor because I also like how his quotes are. I liked this one because of how it really made me feel bad for them. And how they could not afford it. I just felt bad for them in this part of the book.

Q#2: What do you think when you read this quote?

Quote 1: Response-I think this is a good quote because it describes the emergency room well, from what he saw and smelled. However I do not think this relates to question number 5 very well, because it isn't really a hadrship that Valentino faced.

Question 1: Answer-I think he was just thinking of what was happening all in the moment. You know, like when you're so caught up in everything you don't realize what you have been thinking for a minute. I think that is what was happening with Valentino.


Quote 2: Response-I think this is a ver good quote, and I like it alot, because it is a huge disadvantage for them. They need to be in a hospital with care, but they do not have any money to afford it. I think to make this quote better, you could have added more lines from the page, or the situation.

Question 2: Answer-In my opinion, when I read this quote I felt so bad. I wanted to jump into the book and give them all the money they needed. I don't think anyone should deserve to not be able to afford a hospital room, I think that it is wrong, and they should not be rejected because of money problems.

Quote #1:I agree with you a little bit. I dont think it was really that hard because the only bad part was the smell.

Question #1: i think he described it like this because he was telling them what to do and he didnt want them to think he was a little unserious.

Quote #2: I agree with you on this quote. But I think I would be anrgy instead of sad.

Question #2: I think that they should help him. Even though he doesnt have enpgh money.
