My connection to Holden is when he leaves the fencing equipment on the subway. Sometimes I get sidetracked and forget about something. Like when Im at my locker after school grabbing the books I need to take home, and some one starts talking to me. I'll forget to grab something and end up rushing to finish it the next day. The feeling of letting someone down is not a good thing to feel. Its like everyone looks down on you. I also connect to a track meet freshman year when the med kit was left outside during a storm. Nobody was souly responsible for the med kit so we all suffered the consequences.
So I understand how he feels when he forgets about something that is important to other people. However, I try my best to make up for it where as Holden just blows it off like he doesnt care.

ReplyDeletethat is a nice connection that you have written about. I like that it is unique and not like most of the blog entries which i have read. Good points here Neal. Nice work.
ReplyDeleteNeal I agree. I connected with the same thing when he lost his equipment. I hate the feeling of dissapointment.
