Summer Post 2

The Characters in Looking for Alaska by John Green all have a variety of desires. Pudge really just wants to fit in and make friends from what I have read. He is used to not having friends and not fitting in at his hometown in Florida. Colonel is just looking for a good time. He enjoys smoking and drinking, he has been at this school for two years now and knows what it is like so he just wants to have fun and keep good grades like he has done before. Where I am at right now in the book, I honestly don't know much about Alaska besides she has cigarettes and that Pudge has a crush on her. I feel like a possible theme that is beginning to appear in the book is self judgment. Pudge just wants to know what he can do in life and went to Culver Creek to start fresh and meet new people. Pudge feels like he is in with the bad kids, who like to smoke and drink and wonders if he is in with the wrong people. Pudge came to Culver Creek Boarding School to find his great perhaps and he is hoping to have found that when he leaves the school.
