Maggot blog

I was very sad what happened to Jason in the chapter maggot.David Mitchell choose the title maggot because he show us how Jason was getting bullied by Ross,Gary, and Neal because they'd seem him standing in the line with his mother to watch "Chariots Of Fire". Also Leon Cutler, who was a loser, muttered that Jason was a loser. The boys laughed at him and even called him named as he tried to solve the math problems.also when Jason was reading in class every one found out his stammering problem and every one laughed at him.Jason joined the unpopular kids in there changing area at P.E. this went so worng for Jason even the unpopular kids are picking on him now what else could go worng for Jason. Ross and Gary tackled him during the game. Mr. Mcnamara punished Wilcox and Drake.when Jason got off the bus Ross and the others stated to bullied him,Jason try to defend himself but it wasn't a strong come back.do think it can get better for Jason?if they continue to bullied Jason what do you think he might do?

Solarium blog

The chapter solarium is very interesting and I'm very happy to see Jason found some that he can fit in with.Jason went to the vicarage believing he had an appointment with the vicar to discuss his poetry but instead he met an old lady named Eva van outryve de crommelynck and she want to discuss his poetry.she talk about rocks and how Jason talk about his mother and father.Jason couldn't tell anyone about his problem so the talk to him self.it was through his poetry that he was able to say the thinks he felt he couldn't say with his own voice.she also taught about word choice and beauty.the discussion was difficult for Jason because he never learns about this.also she told him to write from his heart and not from what he see.Jason keep going to her every because I think that they see them self in each other.do you think there bound going to get stronger and how would there relationship turn out?

Rocks blog

In the chapter rocks I had a good reaction because their was two country British and  Argentina fighting for the Falklands. Jason and his family found out  that one of the Great Britain  warship has sunk by the Argentine during the Falkland war.The British thought that they gonna lose the Falkland war but they ending up defeating the Argentine.meanwhile at Jason dinner his parents are fighting over the rockery that Jason Mom want to put the backyard but his Dad say that a good waste of money.my reaction to this is that it has to do with both parents because the Mom just want the house to look nice on the other the Dad say that a good waste of money or maybe he just want to save to give to Jason and Julia when they get older.since they always fighting their marriage is falling apart because they lost their trust in each other also the koi fish symbolize a long life but a brid run off with the koi fish. This could be content to their marriage by since it represents a long life the might be try to keep their marriage together but it also says that the bird took it which could mean that one of the parents might leave and the family might be  separated
