Last Topic of the Year, due by Sunday, June 7:

Perhaps its time to pick out some favorite memories of Pine Point. Let us know about three (or two, or one, or fifty) of your fond memories of your time at our school. Don't worry about choosing a favorite. Just describe a few good memories. (Feel free to do more than one post as memories come back to you.)

Remember to check the rubrics (to the right). Contributions to the forum can be brief, but must be well thought out and carefully written. No typos or grammar errors, please.

Gabe's Post

Much like Kyle, the sentence that spoke to me in the short story Winter Dreams was "There are some who just live, really, in hell, and they know it and they see whats happening and they go right on." Fitzgerald sounds like he was saying that there are people who know how horrible their lives, yet they still keep on living. I chose this quote because when you know some one who lives a very difficult life and they don't let it bother them, it shows an incredible amount of courage. For example, a friend of mine's mom has cancer but she doesn't let it get to her. She doesn't let the deadly disease dampen her mood because every time i see her she is chipper and perky.
