"Jeannette Walls' Maturity in The Glass Castle"

Jeannette Walls' Maturity in The Glass Castle In Jeannette Walls’ The Glass Castle , we learn quickly that Jeannette is extremely mature. She had a grown-up mentality because her parents did not take good care of their children. She was so intelligent and brave that she accepted all challenges that happened in her life and tried to survive them. Looking at her life from a more positive perspective, because if Jeannette did not try to survive she probably would not have had the same maturity that she had, and his life wouldn't be the same. She would not become the successful woman that she is. One of the first examples of her early maturity was the first memories that Jeannette Wall’ had when she was three years old. She was standing in front of the stove. She was going to cook a hot dog for herself since she was hungry. And she expressed this “ I could hear Mom in the next room singing while she worked on one of her paintings' '. We learned something really important he...

The Glass Castle " I was on fire" Reaction

 The reaction to chapter two                The second chapter is completely different from chapter one since we hear more about the background of the woman, the mom, the dad, and her brother. The second chapter started talking about when she was a chill when she was three years old. The accident that happened, just hearing about that when she was three years old she was cooking hot dog, you can start realizing that something is not right, since when we were three years old we don't cook or we can't be close to the kitchen, that was crazy.            The narrator has such a beautiful way to express everything that happened without saying the exact words and when you pay attention and read slowly you will get what she is saying. With the unfortunate accident we learn more about the mom, when the daughter was yelling and screaming because she was on fire, the woman just wrap her up with a scratchy blanket...

                                   Reaction to chapter 1                  At the beginning of the history we hear about the lifestyle of the woman, we hear that she is in a taxi going to a party and that she is rich, or she has money since she is wondering if she looks overdressed. And then she saw his mother, looking in the garbage the narrator didn't tell exactly what she was looking for but the face of her mother was happy, the mother seen was contained. When did I finish reading that part it surprised me, how her mother is looking in the garbage if her daughter has money that can help her? for me, it was a moment of indignation, how she can leave his mother like that. She is a horrible person. And then when I continue reading more details appear. The woman is hidden in the taxi and she asks the taxi to turn back to her house....

The beauty of Yale

  My first impression of yale             During my first time at yale, I fell in love with architecture, it was so precious to me. It was as if  the building was telling us a really interesting story. Every place that I look at it kept my eyes on it and I just wanted to take a picture to capture its beauty. Yale has a lot of amazing places and history and I am so excited to learn about it. Every place looks so elegant and old, it's like the building was created a decade ago and in reality, I found out that it is not, and I could not believe it. How they created such a beautiful place looks old, it's like magic.                    Every place that you look at has such an amazing history behind it. For example in the photo above, this is a water fountain if you look closer you are going to see a number around it. An interesting fact is that actually one of the students of Ya...
