Earliest Memories

The earliest memory that I can describe in detail, is when I was at Guangzhou, eight years ago, it was just a few hours before I was about to take the plane to Seattle, Washington where my cousins would be waiting. I was at this huge city that I have been to for the first time, everything was so loud, the cars were all backed up, teenagers just cross the streets on their skateboards or bikes and occasionally a driver would literally open the window and start cursing in Chinese and to what would be now flipping them off too with the middle finger, I personally found it extremely funny and would always laugh at the driver. My mom was doing some last minute shopping walking around the streets, checking out the shops and stalls, it was Autumn, close to Winter then, even though the city was fairly warm people would still wear their Winter coats and white gloves just to show off, from where i came from a little quiet town like Olympia almost and occasionally i would nag my mom to take me along to buy groceries, but at Guangzhou I was scared, I was grabbing onto my moms sweater as hard as I could, because if I let go I would be lost and my mom wouldn't hear me if i cried for help, but i couldn't help looking around, it was night and the streets signs were illuminating bright colors and cars horns were blaring.
I was finally able to leave the streets and go to the airport, it was quiet there and I was tired, I found a chair and slept on it, when my mom woke me up I was walking into the plane, I couldn't read then but I remember vividly it was a American Airlines plane, with its red white and blue strips.

The Catcher in the Rye: IRONY

In the Novel the Catcher in the Rye, J.D Salinger uses irony as the main literary element. This book is written in the point of view as a 16 year old teenager, the irony in this is because this teenager wouldn't be the brightest kid around and he isn't, he has already got kicked out of three soon to be four really nice school, and one of them he left because he thought one of the staff was too much of a phony and he couldn't stand it, his grades are really bad, flunking all class except for english. Another irony in this book was when Holden said he wanted to preserve his child hood innocence, but the thing is it was long gone, he smokes, drinks, and has hookers going to his room very late at night, and gets beat up soon afterward when he spent all his time talking with the hooker and paid her too little.
But my favorite ironic situation was when Sally Hayes went on a date with Holden, at first site Holden felt like marrying her, but ask their date went on it got worse and worse, for Holden at least
but after their date was finished Holden found a new way of saying good bye, and that was telling Sally she was a Pain in the ***, and he just walked away leaving Sally to find her own way home

Reading another book 0_0

The book that I have chosen to read, would be the Catcher in the Rye by J.D Salinger, I have to admit with this book that was basically assigned to me it is pretty sweet. I am actually enjoying this book because the main character in this book says whatever he likes to say and he doesn't have to be all nice about it which is really funny, and the slang in this book i can relate to, most of the books I always have to reread and reread to understand, but this one i understood right away, this book got my attention in this first page because its not all serious like most the books I read.

The element that I think is most dominant so far when i read the book would be irony, I am really not sure though because I'm not that far into the book, the author probably used irony in this book because it could relate to some of the characters. The Tone? I am still not sure yet though, but i have a good idea it could be moralistic because Holden is really judgmental of others appearance and behaviors, I am not sure though, maybe if I read more I might make my decision.

Reading new books by Randy '',

It is really hard for me to get into a new book because almost all the book I've read are assigned by teachers. The only series/books that I've actually chose to read were Alex Rider and Series of Unfortunate Events, those books were the best books ever because the first chapters were easy to read, and the story was interesting to keep me wondering what will happen next? Unlike Treasure Island which Mr. Rorem made the class read which totally sucked, the movie was not much better either. Whenever I have a really boring book like that I just force myself to get through it, when my ideal reading place is taken or not available, I usually just go to my room to read and listen to some music to drown out the noise that distracted me, for some people the music would just distract them some more, but not me ^__^
Why I read fiction? well that is because fiction books are often more engaging than non-fiction, fiction books have endless possibilities, and allows the author to really express himself.
Reading style??? whats reading style, I just read...........
