If they had never had that dinner, none of them would have understood why Curron's jokes could be so hurtful for Sunny. They might have just let this moment slide and Sunny would have just suffered quietly. ]]> 2021-03-22 14:54:08 UTC https://padlet.com/caradempsey/c7b3rtzwa5sl1ag5/wish/1338324752 https://padlet.com/caradempsey/c7b3rtzwa5sl1ag5/wish/1338465566 This one caught my eye because it's so true. You can't run away from yourself but you can choose to become better. Chasing your dreams can be hard, but not impossible. ]]> 2021-03-22 15:17:31 UTC https://padlet.com/caradempsey/c7b3rtzwa5sl1ag5/wish/1338465566 andersongamer https://padlet.com/caradempsey/c7b3rtzwa5sl1ag5/wish/1338466192 I think that what he is trying to say is that he didn't mean to do anything wrong.

I can kinda relate, actually. You must know what Cadburry cream eggs are, right? anyway, I wanted one but Alodia wasn't willing to buy me candy because, well, candy. And I stole it. ]]> 2021-03-22 15:18:07 UTC https://padlet.com/caradempsey/c7b3rtzwa5sl1ag5/wish/1338469097 cbuonamia https://padlet.com/caradempsey/c7b3rtzwa5sl1ag5/wish/1338469657 I feel like this is saying that trying to change who you are or change your past is futile, and probably damaging. Instead, it's much better to think about where you want to go, and who you want to be when you get there. Ghost has a difficult past that makes him "feel like I have scream inside me" but he doesn't have to let it dictate his future. He can choose where he wants to go and decide which path to follow. ]]> 2021-03-22 15:18:12 UTC https://padlet.com/caradempsey/c7b3rtzwa5sl1ag5/wish/1338469657 https://padlet.com/caradempsey/c7b3rtzwa5sl1ag5/wish/1338471380 ''apologies is like good i think''

We have seen in the book that Ghost is a kind, thoughtful person (he gives Brandon a pass when other kids are mean to Brandon). But we also know that Ghost stole the shoes. But he stole them because his family is poor and he wants to do well on the Defenders. We all make mistakes and wish we'd acted differently, and here Ghost is thinking about how his one action (stealing the shoes) don't define him as the only thing he is. ]]> 2021-03-22 15:23:54 UTC https://padlet.com/caradempsey/c7b3rtzwa5sl1ag5/wish/1338504705 cbuonamia https://padlet.com/caradempsey/c7b3rtzwa5sl1ag5/wish/1338518194 I  disagree with this statement: "It seems here that he's trying to convince himself that he's something better than he is." It is almost impossible for us as very privileged people (who can learn remotely and safely during COVID with good technology) to understand how Ghost's life feels. ]]> 2021-03-22 15:26:08 UTC https://padlet.com/caradempsey/c7b3rtzwa5sl1ag5/wish/1338518194 caradempsey https://padlet.com/caradempsey/c7b3rtzwa5sl1ag5/wish/1338526863 Josh, this is such a good point.
