So Much Unfairness Of Things

I thought it was fair he got kicked out of the school. Even though he truly did regret it that was the punishment everyone gets. Also, to balance it out his relationship with his dad became stronger. In the end of the story, for the first time, he actually calls him Dad. I thought that was almost like since he got cheated he gets kicked out, but since he didn't really mean to he got a relationship with his father. Even Mr. Seaton knew that P.S. really regretted it and never meant to do it. However, it was quite obvious he most likely wouldn't turn himself in. Also, when he said he wouldn't have turned in Jumbo that made everyone think that he didn't respect the honor code that the school was so committed to. Then again most people also knew that we wasn't a cheater he just made a mistake. It was kind of good he got caught because, as I said, things turned out great with him and his dad, and he probably won't ever cheat again. Plus, he probably won't have to take Latin again. When he said cried at the end I thought it could have been for multiple reasons. Either he was happy about his dad, sad about leaving all his friends, ashamed of himself, or sad about breaking such a big tradition.

Not Waving But Drowing

Most people will judge others the first chance they get. Usually they don't realize they are judging, but they are. I have heard when people first see me and first get to know me they think I am quite shy. They find later though that I am not. Also, a lot of people think I am either mean or a goody goody. Neither of which are true. I tend to do the right things in most situations, but I am not an angel. Last year this girl asked one of my close friends if I was mean she responded "Lindsey? Ha yeah right! She's one of the nicest people I know!" I don't know why she thought I was mean, but I found it very funny. There have been several occasions when I think people are so sweet and nice, but I hear a story and it totally changes my mind. One action or rumor can change how people see you. Also, before I knew a girl who was one of my best friends I thought she was some sort of hard core catholic girl... then I got to know her. Boy was I wrong! No she's not like a devil's child or anything, but she definitely changed my opinion about her. This comes to show you truly can't judge a book by it's cover, because what's on the inside can be a whole other story.
hey :)
