Blog Post #30--"Suspicion"

Do you think Shay has a right to be jealous of Tally?  Why or why not?

No, I don't think Shay has a right no be jealous of Tally.  This is why I was such a tomboy as a teenager; girls are VICIOUS!  As Shay demonstrated...you get in her "territory" as Tally did with David and claws are beared.  Growing up I had a couple very close 'girlfriends' as my Grandma called it.  However, I rarely moved out of my circle because of instances just like this one.

Tally received a gift from David in the chapter that is special.  Have you ever received something that made others jealous as this gift did?  Did your gift have a speical meaning behind it as Tally's had?

I would have to say no to the jealous part, head turning maybe, but no jealousy.  Mainly because growing up my family was on a "get by status" and I never really recieved anything extravagent until adulthood.  My closest example for everyone is a gift I received for my 29th birthday.  My husband, the sweetie he is, bought me what he called a "real" wedding ring.  It's absolutely stunning in a subtle way, which is why I love it.  He said since we got married at 21 and had zero money to show for ourselves right out of college, he wanted to make a big deal out of my 29th birthday...9 years to the date after I said "yes" to his proposal.  The ring has turned a few heads, but I doubt jealousy.  I think the ACT should inspire jealousy.
