Quotes:

¨Okay, i had Fallen for it, or at least hadn't been focused on that aspect of the situation, but no way was I opening my mouth and admitting it.¨ Pg. 117

Text Response:

I think that this quote kind of reflects how she kind of is, maybe a little shy about things and the truth or embarrassed that people would not go with what she thinks. I kind of understand her right know because yes sometimes its not easy to focus on the reality its like your are not sure of yourself and you lie or you are just not ready to speak it out. Its because we are not jet confidence of our thoughts and think that if we say something wrong we are going to be seen like someone stupid, that happens to me when I am going to present something and I'm not quite sure. Its part of the process, we can get nervous confused and just speak anything because our thoughts are not aspecting something different then what we are sure of.

¨Nothing fun about being number three when one and two are flirting .¨ Pg. 138

Text Response:

In this positions I think that its better to not influence much in other peoples ove situation. I mean that sometimes you can feel uncomfortable for being in between two relationships and I can connect to her friend Tess that in some part of the book she actually feels jellies of her friend and she gets in Kevin's way and kind of ruins what her friend and he had. But in my opinion, I rather think that people chose with what person they want to fall for, so that was one of te main concepts in the book. This showed me that when someone loves you he is going to go always for you no matter who or what opposes to that choice. 

Final Thoughts: 

To end up this blogs, I would like to say that even though we sometimes don't have a perfect chosen life, we have the opportunities to decide and that is a very important thing because sometimes like some people say we are so confused and  we have to let our hearts decide what we will have to face someday. And maybe love is demonstrated in different perspectives and we all like and deserve the same amount of chances.  As we can see not all of us love the same way, some of us pose to what love is and some of us are like most of us, with a regular love life. We have to be sure, aware that in some point we are going to face things never write-in our stories. One of the solutions for this is to learn how to let go, to go over it, to trust your minds and just continue with your normal lives. To regret what people say and to focus on what love really means to us. And when we are confused and can't think of anything after all, just let it be and heal with the truth. 

I Don't Like Him

Summary:

So, the thing is that sometimes love can get hard, it is difficult to maintain a relationship with ought struggling its like showering with ought water, impossible. Sometimes its because we are not sure of our own deceptions, or maybe we are confused. But I can say that probably it brings good things, new experiences and more opportunities. Most of the times there are fights, but it all leads to one thing, to the happy path the way all things should be. The girl is really strange, she is acting different and its because she is experiencing something new something that all of us are going through at some point, something nice but at the same time gross, our first kiss. Although her experience wasn't that bad she still feels worried because she feels she did something wrong and she did, who said we can't make mistakes. Our lives depend on our mistakes, if we make them we learn from them. So maybe she wasn't ready, maybe it was all about time because sometimes things can't go that fast like we think so.  Maybe she felt bad because she was one of the last in her age who had never kissed before, and it could actually happen to a lot of us. The big idea is that now that her mother nows almost everything she wants to get to know Kevin's parents and him as well. Yes, she is nervous because what if something went wrong or there was an embarrassing moment? What was she supposed to act like, was it her fault? In this moments we all get stressed because the fact that we are not ready for it, its a hard time. Well , we all change, we all have our times, so it could be that one say we feel something for someone and the next day we are completely disagreeing with it, it part of our lives.

Quotes:

¨I think that I really should tell her I already had gotten my first kiss, behind me.¨ Pg. 76

Text Response:

I think that this quote means that sometimes we realize that our problems need to be solved with help, maybe sometimes we need a moment to think twice and accept the reality that at some point we need someone who nows how to help us. This could probably mean that no we are not perfect and yes sometimes we hide things but we can always get advice.  All of us need some, its like basic in lives but we have to ask for it I mean help is not going to come and reach us, if we mess it up we better clean it up, its our responsibility to take care our ourselves. 

¨At school Kevin and I avoided each other completely.¨ Pg. 60

Text Response: 

This quote has a really strong meaning because it is a clear example of how relationships work out. It explains that like I said sometimes it is ridiculous but yes, there is bad times and we have to solve it at the end and always try to come up with better solutions. Never giving up is one basic thought that all of us need to have in mind, our world is full of problems but so what we can fix it, its never late for second chance. If we have the freedom of expression the why do we not seek for our needs if being with him makes her smile then we better start making something to find the way of happiness. 

Final Thoughts: 

To conclude this, I want to end by saying that this book has brought me a lot of memories that made me realize that not everything is always easy.When we talk about love sometimes we give it up to waste but then we realize it is a very important step in our lives.  Yes, its obvious that we  have bad moments and disagree with things, and there are times when we discuss and we know that we are not correct. That is called falling for your mistakes, we all have some and we need to start facing them. Even though sometimes we can't actually forgive something or forget we can always start from zero or give it another chance. Our existence depends in our choices, rather we follow what we feel or we lay and see how the world goes by and we still don't know what to do.  What I have always wondered is that if we have the liberty then why don't we take over it and let ourselves be us, let go of our doubts and get it all together to a solution. When I get in a issue I try and try till I find it and return it from where it started. When we start something and we begin strugguling we need to go back and find a way to start all over but with a better attitude and knowing what we are looking for the forward future. 

Confessions

Summary:

The past days I have been reading a lot this book and I find it really cool because at somme point it relates to myeline and I feel that this girl understands very well what an adolecen life is like. She explains her life in many different perspective that make her realize different situations as well. She is kind of confused since she thinks Kevin is a really hot guy but she is actually in love with another boy. The thing that complicates her thought is the fact that her best friend has been flirting with his crash al l the time so what is she supposed to think and act like if she had herself thinking that Kevin also liked her. So she hasn't had great days during every mess. She is distracted and can't even focus in school as well. Her life is being slowly  disappearing but her main focussing skill is for her to continue with her normal life and regret her chances.  Although she is kind of worried she has to know and understand that this could count as a normal growing process witch means that every adolescent has a similar case in their life. The problem is that she is feeling guilty for everything since she entered the new year in school.

Quotes:

¨ I have never shaken hands with a kid before¨.  Pg. 54

Text Response:

I think that this quote menas that this is the process tat life takes us through. At first we are afraid of talking to  boy and suddenly we are really close to one. When I was little I also was nervous because all of my finds would have a bunch of boy buddies and I would stay apart because I didn't know how to act over those situations or what is something when wrong and I looked like whatever girl in school. After a while I started realizing that we all have to take chances in life and so now I have really good friendships with boys and I totally think that it is a normal thing. Besides, this quote has showed be that everything comes to its time, we have to be patient and wait for the time to come.

¨My best friend was asking if I liked him the way I actually did very much and at every waking moment like him¨ Pg. 38

Text Response:

This is an example from the book that proves what I was saying. I think that in this quotes her best friend is trying to persuade her to tel her what she actually feels for Kevin s they both now what to do and continue on. Maybe she is willing to be with Kevin thats why she asked her for more information as well. Or it could be the opposite way I mean she is trying to help her best friend with him.

Final thoughts:

Finally in my opinion, she is not having favorite days, she is struggling with love and nobody understand her, she is alone and her only way of escaping for the truth is for her to be herself and go with what she feels like. If none can help her because as well, her family is telling her another perspective way of love she needs to stand up and go with what makes her feel more confident of herself. In the end we have to focus on what makes us happier. There is moments when we feel we can't find solutions and we are stuck I totally agree with her but I think that if we try harder or if we put a little more effort into it then there is always going to be a way out to nay problem. If we think that everything is always going to be a fail and negative then the results will turn up to be similar because all of our bad actions are together and then there is going to be no possible way anyone can make you change your min.  So, its always better to focus on what makes you feel good, on the positives marks and in the way you could improve your effects with ought harming yourself. 

If We Kiss

Summary:

I chose this book because I think that from seeing the front cover and analyzing, it had like a good perspective of what a real adolescent life is. I am expecting that this book shows people of how to react over different circumstances  in life. This girl makes her life weird  because she has her confusions, she has a crush on a lot of boys,  but she has been wondering what would happen if she kisses with Kevin, on of the hottest boys in school. How should it feel, what would be her first impression, what is she gets scared and never asks for one in her entire life or what if she loves it? its an experience she has never done. She was worried because she notices this boy always talked to her and walked with her. The most annoying thing was that all of this happened in school and she could die for him. She tells her friend every single thing, until one day it happened and so on, her mother was called from detention and she had a long talk with her. Her mother told her and explained that sometimes happens but you have to learn how to control it it was kid of awkward at some point until the girl changes the subject.

Quotes:

¨Hey¨ he said. 

I almost swallowed my gum. Pg. 4

Text Response: 

I think that this quote means that when you like someone, its not easy to hold it, what I mean is that you get confused and try to hold it or hide the truth but instead you stupidly do whatever comes first to your mind. Its hard to talk to someone when you feel something and specially when it is someone important so you have to look and seem cool right, thats what a normal girl would say. And its not easy to always get what you need like as simple as we think. 

¨Does it mean I did something wrong?¨ Pg. 9 

Text Response:

By this quote I can understand that yeah since everything was happening so fast, she was feeling worried because she never thought after kissing him. So she didn't have the time to think, it was from one minute to another. She was wondering what was wrong with her, what was Kevin going to think or what if everyone noticed it. What if she had ruined her future or what if she did it just right or something. I could learn form this that sometimes things have to go with the flow and take time. Sometimes if we want something we have to wait and take more chances. 

Final Thoughts:

Finally I think that this book is going to get really inserting because besides the girls life, it also talks about how people can react over things and tell you. After this, maybe she is going to hate Kevin because they have never talked about that and it was like so strange, so she has to take better deceptions and maybe think a little more before doing another thing like this. Its okay to take bad thoughts sometimes but it has to stop someday. I think that love makes us what we are I mean it is a very important step in our lives, it shows us about feelings and concentrates in making people change in their way of acting over other people, to know each of our way of thinking and our defenses in life. The love that we give is the one we deserve and I think that most of the time love defines us, if we have love we find ourselves as well. 

Stand Up

SUMMARY

After the dinner they both talk, they say to each other sorry for all the disaster, Juli tells Bryce that she was angry and she really wanted it to be over. Bryce tells Juli that maybe he was also like that because he was stressed that she wouldn't handle it like that, and that maybe all of their friendship was over.

QUOTES

 ¨ I was so relieve that I hadn't bid on Bryce¨. pg 204.

TEXT RESPONSE 

I think that Juli is in the middle of nowhere she is so lost that she would do anything for Bryce to keep away of her. She is afraid, maybe its very difficult to trust Bryce after all, its a hard deception or rather she goes with what Bryce tells or she follow her path along life. This quote shown me that you have to trust yourself when you don't have a choice and you have to do something fast.

¨Maybe there is more to Bryce Loski than I know.¨ pg 212.

TEXT RESPONSE

Julianna Baker is now remembering herself of what they had told her about Bryce. Maybe she was wrong and she needed to understand that yes, Bryce made a mistake but he is more then a jerk, he has more things in front of her that he hasn't showed to her yet. Maybe he is waiting for the precise moment. 

FINAL THOUGHTS

In the end I guess it was a normal love process, they had good and bad moments, but thats when they get to know each  other very good. They are both really nice kids that at first they were kind of confused but later things change, people act different and they both got to the point were they understand each other. 

The Other Side

SUMMARY

Julianna is trying to forget about Bryce problem, she is concentrated more in her family but mostly in her dad. She went with him to his grandfather birthday but they didn't talk that much it seemed like something was wrong between those two. David shows Julianna one of his puzzples since he was master on that. They had a great time and they decide to go get ice cream, when something goes wrong with his grandfather and he falls, they all got scared and cleaned it all up. When Juli got home her parent told her in a very exited voice that Bryce and his family were coming over, she made a really angry face and decided to pretend she ignored him all the time. Bryce is also freaked out since he now what is happening and he is worried because he sent know what to expect. When Juli and Bryce meet Bryce finds Juli really attractive but Juli tells Bruce he is a total jerk and she docent want to see him ever again. Bryce is nervous and his dad starts to embers him even more, he felt really stupid. Juli thinks about everything and she feels sorry, she thinks its enough and she tells Bryce everything, they were in such a good moment that they almost kissed the feeling was really strong.

QUOTES

¨I was completely lost. And even though I was pretending to follow along with what they were saying, what I was really doing was trying to not stare at Juli¨. pg 151.

TEXT RESPONSE

This quote means that Bryce is kind of confused now, he is worried about the dinner night and he is really frustrated. Bryce docent now if he likes Juli or if he is stupidly mad at her for being like that with her. This quote showed me that things happen at any time, even when you don't want them they are there and you have to face them and follow what you need to.

¨Bryce?¨ She says, touching my arm again. ¨Did you hear me? Im sorry.  pg 157.

TEXT RESPONSE

Right know Juli is facing her feelings, she is scared but she prefers telling Bryce the truth fate and letting everything go and she thinks that maybe she is lost and she needs someone besides her and will be Bryce because she is kind of figuring out what is keeping her from being with Bryce every single day besides the eggs. This quote tells me that when you really like someone don't waste your time in other things, just face it and tell him or her the truth.

FINAL THOUGHTS

Finally I think that from now on, they are going to take things easier by this I mean that maybe they are going to be step by step they are going to analyze and think that maybe if they start over and go slowly they are going to end up with a better relationship since right know they both like each other and I think that nothing can spare the because in the end they are going to admit the love they both have and everything is going to repeat. 

Sometimes it all gets a little hard

SUMMARY

So, right now Bryce is getting the concepts that he was wronged, if he docent fix his mistake soon he will loos one of her biggest friends ever. He knows he acted stupid all the way, but he is kind of confused now, he docent know what to expect or even how to tell Julianna he is truly sorry about what happened. Well, things don't always go as planned, sometimes we have to loos things to earn better ones. Maybe its just some space or time that Julianna needs like right know she is really mad at him and she has a really valuable reason. His grandfather has turned into one of Juliannas friends they both get each other and they like the idea of planting nature in Juliannas garden so practically Bryce is alone, he is stressed and is worried that something else besides the big problem he is facing will pop out and basically ruin his idea of telling Julianna he is sorry for all the mess. Bryce is trying really hard, in fact he docent now how to even talk to her at this point. There has been even fights among Bryce family, they thing Juli looks like her grandma that passed out in the spiritual way. They fight because Juliana has a brother with retarded problems and they feel bad because what could they possibly do to help at this piont? Now Bryce is scared. Scared because he is a kid he is not sure of what to tell Juli. Well through all of this at lest Bryce got to know his grandpa better and he recommended some things about her. Bryce starts to read things about her, all of a sudden he is in love with Juianna Baker.

QUOTES

¨Its like your heart has been kissed by beauty¨ pg 98.

TEXTT RESPONSE 

I think that this quote that Bryce remembered was a really significant thing because not just the fact that he understands the importance of the trees but, he know gets the pint and realized that his heart has been shocked recently. Bryce has felt a not usual feeling during those days, his mind in changing and his feelings are to. This is helping him know how he needs to act with her and the way he needs to move on. 

¨ Where would I be if things had been different?¨ pg 94.

TEXT RESPONSE 

In this question I chose it has a really strong meaning because yes, what If Julianna never appeared in his life? What if she never started with her eggs? Would Bryce be feeling guilty of something? Or was he supposed to be more into her after all? Bryce is really confused a lot of thoughts are active in his brain, he is cycling his feelings that are trapped and can't come ti actual words. He is wondering that maybe things are going to end up worst and his friendship is going to be over.

FINAL THOUGHTS

Well after all of this disaster I guess Bryce has to keep doing the best he cans and care about her day and night till he finds a good solution. He has to keep an eye on her and try to every day tell her how much he feels sorry about the egg thing and maybe give her something I mean if it was my point I would probably share a special thing or moment together so she understands how much Bryce really feels for her, and what a bomb would be leaving her with ought his company all the time.
