So you may be wondering why my blog is titled this...well there isn't one specific reason why. First, I think it's a great quote from the movie Forrest Gump. Also, I like the message it teaches. Life is unexpected, and no one knows what lies before them. We have to take the chance and go see for ourselves if we ever want to accomplish something. This is also a lot like reading. We start out reading a book not knowing where it will take us. The ending is unknown until we reach it; sometimes it ends good and sometimes it ends bad. However, we will never know how it turns out in the end if we do not keep going.

...Problems?


In chapter nine, Jake, Bill, and Cohn decide to take a trip to Spain. Then, Mike and Brett decide to go along too. We find out in this chapter that Brett's trip down to San Sebastian had been with Robert Cohn. This seems like it has the potential to create problems. "Don't you think it will be a bit rough on him [Cohn]?" (page 89). Even Brett suspects it will not go smoothly...I do not see this trip to Spain turning out well. Cohn still seems to be under the impression that Brett loves him even though we know she feels differently. Cohn does not seem like a very emotionally stable type person, so I do not know how he will handle this trip. Jake seems like he will be okay though. He has been fine with Brett being with other people and even marrying someone else, so I do not think it will be a problem for him. However, we still do not know a whole lot about Mike, so I am not sure what to expect from him on this trip. I suppose we will find out soon...
