In the text, it states "Ruth-(he couldn't say nothing)"(page 25). This expresses that he's not good under pressure.]]> 2019-12-18 13:10:45 UTC https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425424852 jwhite431 https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425869701 another one of Walter's trait is he's risky. in the test, it states"I trusted you.... man, I put my life in your hands." (page 128) this is saying he gambled with a lot of money and didn't come out successful.]]> 2019-12-19 13:36:20 UTC https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425869701 jwhite431 https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425870990 I sympathize with Walter because he's trying his best. He's working but at that time a black man couldn't get the best of jobs also he was trying so hard to be able to support his family. I think he's a good person as well, he had enough pride to not sell the house and he's going to be the main income.]]> 2019-12-19 13:39:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425870990 jwhite431 https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425874843
This art piece describes Walter because his life was a roller coaster. His dad dies and he was in a little apartment with a big family so it must have been hard for him. Then he finds out his wife is pregnant and is trying to abort it. He got the check from his dad dying and blew the majority of it because he trusted and the wrong person. but overall towards the end of the book his life went uphill. He decided to not sell the house and move in with is family.]]> 2019-12-19 13:46:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425874843 jwhite431 https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425879070 This describes Walter because he was at a point where no one was listening to him. And he was getting mad because he thought nobody could understand him. Also, there were multiple times where Walter's anger issues got expressed. he also thought he was better than everyone else so when someone was trying to get to his level he got mad. Finally, he was trying to start his business when mama's fist got the check and she completely shut him down.]]> 2019-12-19 13:56:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425879070 jwhite431 https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425886024 Stressed out– Twenty One Pilots
"Wish we could turn back time, to the good ol’ days,When our momma sang us to sleep but now we’re stressed out."]]> 2019-12-19 14:08:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425886024 jwhite431 https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425887771 The lyrics of the song relate to Walter because he's stressed out. He stressed because he doesn't make a lot of money and he drives around other people. Another reason he was stressed was that he was the only man in the family after his dad died. Finally, his mom gave him $6500. Which leads to him losing it to a friend he trusted.]]> 2019-12-19 14:12:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425887771 jwhite431 https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425890729 The theme of the book is pride. A quote that supports it is "we decided to move in the house." It supports it because he had enough pride to decline it. he decided to move into the house when the people didn't want them to be there. It also shows him sticking up for his ancestors.]]> 2019-12-19 14:18:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jwhite431/uwzxljomicgf/wish/425890729
