Nick’s Cardinal Virtue

Cardinal Virtual are positive qualities that all other virtues are based upon. 
I think nick is being arrogant.

Chapter 4 Notes

In this chapter we read that:

  • Nick kept a record of all the guest 
  • All the people mentioned on the beginning in the first two- three pages came to Gatsby’s house in the summer. 
  • Gatsby talks about life and Nick seem to not be convinced
  • Gatsby goes out to eat with Mr Wolfshiem 
  • Daisy revealed  that his names is Jay Gatsby
  • Tom was cheating on daisy after honeymoon

Chapter 3 Questions

1. That he had murdered a guy, and that he was also a german spy that why he doesn’t really come out in the story.
2. Nick calls him a regular belasco/ the man with owl eyes
3. He imagined Gatsby to look old aged
4. He find out that Jordan is dishonest and  a cheater she cheated on her first tournament
5. They plan to go up in the hydroplane at nice o’clock

A cardinal sin is something that is bad but gets worst
I am one of the few honest people that I have ever met..

GATSBY pages 12-26

Today in class we read "The Great Gatsby" pages 12-26, we found out that the narrator is Nick Carraway and is very quiet. One of the characters in this book Daisy is always looking forward but misses it, this is an example of foreshadowing. In these pages read the people don't seem to happy. Daisy is also selfish for wanting her daughter to be a "beautiful little fool".

What’s in my big question for me

The reason I choose my big question is because it doesn't really make sense what makes people really think so many things. Myself wonders so many things that I wish I can find an answer to everything that runs through my head. Let me just be honest and say I think about stupid and scary things that probably others don't think.Why is it that this happens? I just want to have an answer to why are people so superstitious. Why is Friday the 13th considered unlucky?
