" Hills like white elephants", By Ernest Highway is a short story about a couple that is at a crossroads in their lives. In this blog post, I will be talking about if the girl ever decided to stay with the man and I will tell my own story when I was at a crossroads in my life.
The story begins with a man and girl sitting at a table having some beers, waiting for the train. They seem to be at a crossroads in their lives. The man in the story seems to have feelings and care for the girl, where the girl seems like she doesn't even care about her own feelings to let alone her feelings towards the man. She seems to want to avoid all the conversations about their relationships. I believe the train means a symbol to their relationship. They wait for the train just like we as the readers are waiting to see what happens with their relationship. I think the story was uncertain and hard to understand it. My opinion, I think the man ended up with the woman that he had feelings for. At the end of the story, it says how he walked away and got a seat at the bar, while she was still sitting at the table. I think he walked away from her because he knew she was so was not sure about her feelings were towards him. It seems like she just wanted whatever he wanted. I believe the man did the right thing to walk away. No one wants to be in a relationship if the person doesn't like you back and a waste of time.

if I was in Lulu's position. I did not want to tell grandmother will find out eventually. At the end of the story, it said that the will live longer than life of the outlook. The reason was that family did not say sick to grandmother, according to her mother, Chongix is a belief that you can wash away a misfortune with joy, and the wedding plan, she said. I do completely agree with this because I think that if they have seriously ill but do not know and send with hope, it will lead to the good results. I see a lot of the mental issues in the story which I study this before. However my life outlook is short, I would like to learn more about. I would like to tell thank for my family and friend, also I want to do the rest of the time. Therefore, I will continue to worry about others in my life. I hate making lies to my friends because it makes me feel guilty. I do not like being a bad friend. My friends use to give me the truth when I was in really bad relationships but I never took the good advice that I needed. its better hearing the truth than the lie because you hear more clearly in a story than hearing the wrong side of it from someone you do not know. People use to lie to me and never told me how the feel about my reactions and beliefs. Social media is a big one now in days because that is the major problems starts at in the beginning. Problems will solve out in a civil way instead of using fighting because if you do that you would not get anyway. I have been in a situation where nothing was solved out property in an adult way. There a time where my friends use to me about places we are going or talk behind my back. I hate when people talk behind my back when I'm not there because they cant tell the truth about me and if there any problems going in a situation. In the near future, I hope solving a problem can be major to everybody in the world
I do not think Margaret was right for breaking the casserole dish and the two green cups. I understand why she did it but i do not think she should have done it. She could have just let it go because back then colored people were punished for anything they did wrong. So i can not imagine what they did to her since they did not tell us at the end of the story.... She did not understand that Mrs. Cullinan went through everything she went though as a young child. Being called different names and having to do everything. Mrs. Cullinan was holding in everything from when she was a young child and she had finally let it out. Then again i do think Miss. Glory deserved it because what young kid likes being yelled at and having to do everything. I know i dont but, Miss.Glory had it coming. Then they left the window open so all there neighbors could hear Mrs. Cullinan yelling and freaking out at Miss. Glory. That also makes Miss. Glory look dumb because she has a colored women yelling at her and she is doing nothing. This also makes her look unofficial and not a boss like she should be. I made a great challenge that I took advantage was going to college. I wasn't sure in high school if I wanted to go or not but it was an option to choose like have a great job in the higher range or a low-class job without a career. In high school, all my teachers and counselor said I wasn't ready for college because i wasn't really smart enough to figure out what major I wanted to do at first. Also, they thought my iep papers wouldn't be accepted to any class cause how low my score was. I achieve myself to do better on my score to make a bigger process in life. In the mid-future, i might go back to high school and show them I did it and got my bachelor degree with an internship certificate for my major I pick in college. I'm so happy I made goals and a plan to make my classes go faster and also following directions to write down important notes that will be shown in the next class. I improved my writing skills by taking up English comp 100, it showed me a lot of tips and help how to make it sounds better in a paragraph. I hope one day I can achieve my goals and dreams and finish up college just to say I did. Also to be proud of myself what I did in my years of college. There are many more challenges that I would be seeking in the near future.
