G.G. Marquez's"A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings" Quick Notes

Pelayo and Elisenda find a angel(old man w/ enormous wings) when their child has a fever. The child recovers and his parents keep the chicken coop until the child, who was a baby starts school. The angel is an attraction for awhile and then not.  Then, the coop falls down and the angel lives in house for awhile. The angel is a nuisance in the house, becomes sick and Pelayo and Elisenda give him a blanket and fear he's dying, and when he's better he flies away. Pelayo and Elisenda are happy to see him go.

"A&P" by John Updike Quick Notes

A 19 year old, A&P store cashier stares at three assured well-to-do young women in bathing suits. They stand out to him because, his other customers were old and boring. Anyway, the guy quits his job over these women who in end don't hang around for him. In other words, the girls never cared about him and left.

Response to Kate Chopin's "The Story of an Hour" from Julia Garriott


Freedom can be found often in change. The changes made be bad or good that shape free spirited feelings. I think, the moral is life is short so, don't wait for deaths to find freedom in life.

THE CASK OF AMONTILLADO by Edgar Allan Poe, Response From Julia Garriott

I think, maybe everyone has wanted revenge on someone they hate. Though, I've never killed anyone obviously, I have gotten revenge and felt guilty about it, even though, they deserved it. Feelings bottle up and I have let them go somehow.

Presents

Presents should have no rules. If you get something not you, you should be able to return it to the person on the spot. I mean, personally returns to stores make you wait with the thing. But,sadly this isn't very America and like a crime. In less, you can get the money spend on the gift from its store or trade with someone.
