Graduation

With graduation just around the corner, there is much to be excited about. I am elated to know that I will finally be able to start doing the things I want to do and learn about. High school usually doesn't have these opportunities available, so college is a great place to really find out what you want to do for a living. I suppose I am most excited to live on my own, make my own decisions, and live a little. I'm going to be much more active; going to events, sports games, the like. Hopefully I can be involved in a group with some great people and meet new friends with completely different backgrounds. All in all, I'm excited for what college has to offer, though the tough Gen. Ed. classes are taunting! Should be easy enough I hope.

The Kite Runner

I've been reading The Kite Runner and have gone through chapter 19. Amir finds that he must take in Hassan's orphaned son, Sohrab, in order to begin his redemption of his past mistakes with his best friend. The story is getting good now, with friendship, guilt, and redemption being the main focus of the book I think.

The Kite Runner

I've been reading The Kite Runner and have gone through chapter 16.  Amir has gone to America with his father, but his father died after Amir wedded his soul mate, Soraya. Amir at this point is becoming a better person.

The Kite Runner

I've been reading The Kite Runner and have gone through chapter 9. So far I think the main character, Amir, is very selfish, self-centered, and arrogant. He thinks of Hassan as a friend, but he has never been nice to him. Amir watched in confusion, yeah, confusion, as Hassan was raped in an alleyway. Amir did not step in, but instead ran away. Hassan came back to the house crying and Amir did his best to avoid him. Amir ultimately got Hassan and his father ousted from their home. I do NOT like Amir one iota.
