Blog 1 MP4: Creed & "Woobees"

Woobees are like a security blanket. Torey at this point needs to clam down because he's father just told him that Bo Richardson just confessed to making the phone call. Torey is now filled will fear and worried. Torey feels guilty because he made the phone call and thinks that he was to much of a coward to confess. Playing his makes Torey forget about everything that his stressing him, it helps him clear his mind.  
I have had many woobees. At one point i have a blanket which I would take everywhere with  and then I had a stuffed dinosaur (both which I still own). Both them made me feel secure and would help me when I scared.

TBCC: Chapters Two & Three

"I wish that I  had been born somebody else." (pg 37)

In the novel we have just found out that Christopher is missing. People are wondering if he ran away or if he killed himself. This quotes is a quote form Christopher letter to the principle. This shows us how lonely and depressed Christopher was and that he really felt that no one understood or cared about him. 
This quotes bring up many question about what may happen later on in the novel. For one we are wonder if Christopher is even dead or did her run away. We are also led to believe that it he left because he had no friend and everyone made fun of him. In the quote Christopher said he wanted to born somewhere else, so he can think that he may have just ran away.
