Great Gatsby chapter 1

To be completely honest I didn't understand a lot of chapter one. The green light at the end of the dock is something that i will always know from The Great Gatsby because in black ops 3 zombies there is an easter egg. the zombies map is based around the same time as the Great Gatsby so on a part of the map there is a dock and at the end of the dock theres a green light.other than that i know that theres a guy named nick that moved to new york and lives in a box surrounded by mansions. i also know that this is Gatsby's story through Nicks eyes. Its hard for me to pay attention to the begining of a book so that about all i know.

MUSIC AS LITERATURE

I think Music can be identified as literature because literature is the collective works of a culture or imaginative or creative writing of recognized artistic value. Many artists get very creative in their music just like in poems. A  novel is no different authors use their creative thinking to make amazing stories so i do consider  music as literature because its a way people can express themselves a way a culture can express itself and its no different  from  a novel or song lyrics are like a poem when you think about it.

Guitar class :)

In my guitar class we're learning a new song called "Barcelona Nights" and it gets stuck in my head all day. It makes me wish I had a guitar of my own to play outside of my guitar class. On my way to Dr. Prestons class I was clapping the beat of the song the entire time.

TEAM VOCAB

The citizens of america feel aggravated about this years presidential election and they see their hope dissolving. Americans feel that their earnest work will be for nothing. It makes me sad that no one has attempted to illuminate us when it comes to politics. peoples breaking point is getting to the size of a capillary. Trump has a proboscis. Donald Trump accuses Hilary of not being a good candidate. Donald Trump should be suspended from being a candidate. The debate has hypnotized us into thinking that Donald and Hilary could be president. I think this debate is venomous the candidates aren't very stolid.
