Reactive Blog!
I thought that as it was difficult to stay focus because it was following the motif of circular and linear time. In these 2 chapters you can understand more, of why he sees the world so chaotic. There were a lot of magical realism in these 2 chapters. There was Fernanda who would wander with three living ghosts one being JAB. There was hooked fish tails that made the sun come out and filled the sky with ants. There was also invisible doctor relationships. (haha) I thought it was really weird when Ursula took syrup and honey in her eyes.(what was she thinking?) Not to mean, but i thought it was funny that she was shitting on everything and she shouted "shit" (that is ironic). Amaranta thought that is was a scorpion bit her, so she asked her where it was and she pointer to her heart. (that's really sad:() The elephant ate so much i was like wow she had like 40 oranges, 8 quarts of coffee, 30 raw eggs and more. Then A.S almost died because he ate so much, i think that is funny, he let his competitiveness get to him. (maybe he did not want to lose to a girl..lol.) After reading that article in class to realized the connection to Latin American culture for an example was when Amaranta and Arcadio learned Spanish. I then realized that Aureiano Segundo got drunk and started singing Texas songs. (how did they Texas songs?) It was really sad when the only person who did not want to take part in his mothers farewell was CAB, the one with a heart said to be made of stone. (he must really care and love his mother). I also think that is it funny that Petra Copes can sleep with 2 different men and not know that there 2 different men. (i know there twins, but there has to be something different). I also thought it was funny that i forgot who but one of the characters wanted to wear leather boots that were signed by Petra Copes in his coffin. (that is a little strange). It was also really funny when the nuns saw CAB pee on the chestnut tree. It was interesting when he remember that in the middle of war he was awakened by the certainty that the person whom he had slept with was dead. (that's nice). It was also funny when Ursula diagnosed Meme and told her "Its the same thing drunk people have." Its interesting how Meme took so much money out of his pockets that he could not keep track. Then she told her father about her drunken night and he said "only if your mother knew." (haha) It was gross when one of the men removed wax out of there ears with a penknife. It was also interesting when he counted the fish in the pail and there were 17, he did not sell any. Also for Meme how her instrument made half the town fall asleep.(i feel bad, but maybe it can be seen as a gift). I thought it was so sweet when Amaranta thought she was going to die that she gave her things to the poor. (very thoughtful of her). Macondo with its on going growth had days of the mounth and days of the week. (i was surprised, what is next?). Its funny how Fernanda tried to help the nuns bathroom situation by bringing 72 pots to go in. But it kind of made it worse and she ended up putting them in the "spiritual life room." (haha). It was also interesting to me how (forgot who) saw his drawers as "goth drawers." (lol). Last thing i also thought it was funny how the Elephant had a beautiful face hand and an irresistible charm. (ironic) When he saw her enter he commended in a low voice that he would rather tourney in bed and not at the table. (haha that must of been embarrassing for him)
