the catcher in the rye

I think that the book is pretty good so far. For some reason I can't really get into it. But I think if I keep reading I will like it more. I think he is just like teenagers in high school. They act one way in front of people and then deep inside they have different feelings. Well cant wait to keep reading and find out more about him and his crazy life..

Video...

I think that the book, interview, and movie have a few things in common. I think that they all are similar by explain what morrie is trying to get across. Him telling about his life before he dies his pretty close the same in all three of the types. He also talks about his life before the diease and how close him and Mitch got. I believe by using all of the types have helped me alot. It's has cleared up things that i didnt know between all of them. I think that the movie dosen't bother me either way. Really it just clears up things that I have read in the book and it helps seeing a visual. All three of the types have helped me alot to understand the meaning Morrie is trying to get across. I can't wait to finsh the book and the movie...

Reaction to the Interview

Assignment 1 :

I thought that the interview was going to be Morrie speaking very openly about his life. In the book of Tuesday with Morrie he seems very outspoken and caring person. I thought that the interview was going to have good points about what Morrie was doing before he passes away. In the interview Morrie was a lot like I thought he was going to be.

When Morrie began to speak in the interview about the things that you should always remember when you are dying. Talk about, except it, keep a open heart, be alert, be compassion, and treat yourself gently. They all had very good points. He just keep saying that it isn't your fault that your life is going the way it is. So just make it the best and have the most support that you can possible. I think that all of the things that Morrie said is very true. The interview went very well and that Morrie made some great points.
