chapters 16-18 post

"Did you ever get fed up?" i said. "I mean did you ever get scared that everything was going to go lousy unless you did something?"

this quote from Holden is when he is talking to Sally Hayes on their date and he starts talking about how he HATES school. this shows us that Holden is thinking about a change in his life and that he wants to do something about his life.

i think that this quote shows us that Holden is maturing and has come to this relization that he has to change something in his life or else nothing will change.

Holden follows this up with later trying to convince Sally to run away to Massachucetts or Vermont and live off of the money he has and then get some sort of job and marry Sally. this shows us that Holden is really considering ways that he can change his life and be successful, even if running away from everything isnt the best answer, he is still looking for answers. Holden needs to change his life and this is a good indicater that he will try to change his life.

  1. I dunno, i feel that when someones like "let's run away and get married," they are being pretty immature. I like the name of your blog lol.

  3. I agree with everyone because i think Holden has two personalities he seems to have a reason why and why not to do something and he sometimes chooses the bad choice and i guess sometimes the good.
