11/25/2017

I don't know what to talk about today, you see I would like to mention my book but unfortunately, I already did that yesterday. I mean I guess its okay to do that. Okay, I've decided to explain or summarize what I've read today since he is coming home soon anyway. The book that I'm reading is obviously called "Out of the Easy" and really enjoy the book in general. It is really interesting and for once actually makes me interested in a nonfiction. However, the section that I'm reading right now is kind of like an aftermath of events and there is only one key event that I really like. But let's start from the top and work our way down. When I say top to down I mean from the very beginning of where I left off.

Okay, so I started off at page 130 or chapter 22. Josie explains how she remembers Hearne (man I talked about yesterday) wishing her good luck on whatever college she goes to and a happy new year. Then she walks out of her apartment and heads to her destination when suddenly a man by the name of "Jesse" comes jogging up to her. He sees that Josie is cold and wraps his coat around her. Jesse asks if Josie wants to go to a soda shop and talk a bit while she gets warmer and Josie thinks about it. However, before she can say anything he pulls her into the shop and they sit down while drinking two bottles of sodas. After a few minutes of talking two women come walking towards Jesse and start flirting. Fortunately, it doesn't go well and Josie helps Jesse get rid of them by making jokes. 

Later on, Josie says goodbye to Jesse and leaves the store so she can continue reaching her destination. Apparently, the "destination" is actually a bridge and she is tempted to throw the expensive watch that she knew was worn by Hearne himself. But before the watch falls off her hand and into the water she starts crying and walks back to her house. While walking back to her apartment she stops by her job (bookshop) and talks to her best friend (Patrick). Josie explains to Patrick about the bridge and past events from previous chapters. When she is finished a man comes into the store and asks Josie about her wanting to find a college. Unfortunately, he doesn't help her but just asks whether or not the information he heard was true.

The next day Josie walks into Willie's (practically her mother now since her real one left for California) place and gives her a cup of coffee. Since Willie's "place" is actually a building where men can have sex for a certain price she see's naked women everywhere, all trying to get ready for the next group of men. When she eventually hands the cup of coffee to Willie she gives Josie a green box that Josie can tell there is something expensive inside (important event. Opening it, Josie sees an expensive gold watch with the letters "Josie" encrusted on it. She thanks Willie for the watch and leaves before Willie gets mad. You see, it was Josie's birthday and she didn't expect a gift because she thought no one would give her none.

The reason I think that this is an important event in the story is that she is now 18 years old. Because of that, Josie can find Jobs with higher pay (good) but is not legible to go to jail (bad). Anyway, before I end this post I feel that I need to talk about some Google News or else my father may get mad. Do you remember when I talked about the man who wanted to prove that the Earth was flat? Well I sure do! Apparently his plight or launching day was delayed because of the government and how they said he needed to have permission and a private area where no one would get hurt. I believe that is the right thing to do and wonder how this guy will react when he realizes that the Earth is round. Anyway thats it for today!
