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.

parker's post
I would have to say that Sonny's Blues was more of a pessimistic story for me. The story itself is set in the slums of New York City which is already a, "gloomy view [at] life". It's even more gloomier adding the aspect of drugs and how Sonny really doesn't have a place in this world. The story takes a more happier turn when he finally does find that place; the music club where he plays the piano. Also, he turns out be a skilled pianist, but it's still not enough to be an inspiring story. I think its more of a story of what it's like to live in the slums, and endure what Sonny had to endure, than a happy story to inspire you.
