What i think of Holden Caulfield?
-I think that Holden is not a very smart guy. He got kicked out of school for calling Sally Hayes a royal pain in the ass and because he was failing most of his classes. I think that he should get back into school and that he shoould be more active in the comunity. He also should stop calling people phonies and Holden should try not to swear as much. When ever Holden gets upset or hurt he seems over exaggerate alot. When Holden got punched in the stomach he was makeing himself believe that he got shot in the stomach and was bleeding.

Blog #2 -Is life a game?
Is life a game?
-In my opinion life is a game of risk. Every time you step out ur house you are takeing a risk of getting hurt or killed. You never know what is going to happen untill its too late. For instance to Holden life is a game because he is always getting kicked out of schools, so to him school is like a game. When holden is trying to get into bars he is palying a game of risk beacuse he is trying to see if the bartender will serve him drinks, he also could get kicked out for being under age. When Holden leaves his school he is takeing a risk of being homeless or not haveing a place to go but he leaves anyways.

What does it mean to be true to yourself?
- In my perspective to be true to yourself you must not fall into temtation when some one is trying to pressure you into doing something that you dont want to do. Also you have to have some self confidence when it come to doing things that you are not confident in. An example from the book is how Holden doesnt mind taht he is a virgin at first and he tells the girl (prostitute) that he is a virgin and that he just wants to talk.
