Ah done lived Grandma's way, now Ah means tuh live mine." (Hurston 108)Commentary: What does Janie mean when she's done living in her grandma's way? When did she realize that she's been doing what her grandma had been wanting her to do? Maybe her grandma's way was to live with a man with just protect and money so that she wouldn't have to worry about that because the first husband she married had land which her grandma arranged for her. The second marriage was with Joe Starks, who became rich after helping flourish the town. This had made Janie work too much and she did not really get to see the outside world, but it could be different this time with Tea Cake as she wants to marry him and move to a place where they can start fresh. 444004773 https://padlet.com/444004773/9bi6zx17z3ss/wish/266147450 2018-06-07 16:19:30 UTC https://padlet.com/444004773/9bi6zx17z3ss/wish/266147450 Question Ch. 13/14Quotation: "He never had his hand on so much money before in his life, so he made up his mind to see how it felt to be a millionaire. They went out to Callahan round the railroad shops and he decided to give a big chicken and macaroni supper that night, free to all." (Hurston 117)Commentary: Why would Tea Cake just use the money on random things? Couldn't he have told Janie that he took the money before he left her there for the whole day? Tea Cake maybe just wanted to buy many things so he could be rich. Is Tea Cake really trustworthy for Janie or is he just trying to get her money and leave her? 444004773 https://padlet.com/444004773/9bi6zx17z3ss/wish/266147559 2018-06-07 16:20:08 UTC https://padlet.com/444004773/9bi6zx17z3ss/wish/266147559 Connect Ch. 13/14Quotation: "They stayed in the room two whole days then she woke up to find Who Flung and her money gone. She got up to stir around and see if she could find him, and found herself too worn out to do much." (Hurston 114)Commentary: I can connect this to the real world where many people get conned by others for their money. It's in movies where they sleep with the person and then the next day they leave with their money and expenses. The real world has many bad people just like Who Flung who takes advantage of others and get into their life just to bring it down. These people con others for money or anything that is valuable to the person. 444004773 https://padlet.com/444004773/9bi6zx17z3ss/wish/266147704 2018-06-07 16:20:43 UTC https://padlet.com/444004773/9bi6zx17z3ss/wish/266147704 Interpret Ch. 9/10Quotation: "But Nanny belonged to that other kind that loved to deal in scraps. Here Nanny has taken the biggest thing God ever made, the horizon--for no matter how far a person can go to the horizon is still way beyond you--and it pinched it in to such a little bit of a thing that she could tie it about her granddaughter's neck tight enough to choke her." (Hurston 85)Commentary: This seems like Nanny is giving Janie too little hope for the horizon as it mentions that Nanny made it seem really close. This made Janie too ignorant about the world and doesn't know many things beyond the horizon. It could mean that Nanny made Janie think that she achieved things beyond the horizon. I think it means that Nanny gave Janie false hope on the world when the world is bigger than she expected. 444004773 https://padlet.com/444004773/9bi6zx17z3ss/wish/266147796 2018-06-07 16:21:12 UTC https://padlet.com/444004773/9bi6zx17z3ss/wish/266147796 Question Ch. 9/10Quotation: "Digging around inside of herself like that she found that she had no interest in that seldom-seen mother at all. She hated her grandmother and had hidden it from herself all these years under a cloak of pity." (Hurston 85)Commentary: Why has Janie hated her grandmother? She is the one who has been taking care of Janie all these years after Janie's mother left. This makes Janie look like she's ungrateful towards her grandmother. It feels like Janie never loved her grandmother or how she has been keeping her safe as long as she could. 444004773 https://padlet.com/444004773/9bi6zx17z3ss/wish/266147853 2018-06-07 16:21:32 UTC https://padlet.com/444004773/9bi6zx17z3ss/wish/266147853 Interpret Ch. 13/14Quotation: "He drifted off into sleep and Janie looked down on him and a self-crushing love. So her soul crawled out from its hiding place." (Hurston 122)Commentary: This seems like Janie has finally found what she was missing from her older marriages. This new new thing has fulfilled Janie and made her happy with this marriage. Her soul has crawled out, meaning that it was hiding before when she was probably with her past marriages. She has what she needs now and is finally happy with what she has right now. 444004773 https://padlet.com/444004773/9bi6zx17z3ss/wish/266148050 2018-06-07 16:22:35 UTC https://padlet.com/444004773/9bi6zx17z3ss/wish/266148050
