In Hills like white elephants by Ernest Hemingway, two different people are trying to make a decision but they are also both trying to agree with one another. Weather she should stay with the guy or leave him. Or if she wants to stay in the relationship or leave it. The story starts with a man and a girl waiting for a train, sitting in a bar having beers. The whole story is confusing but, from what I understood from the conversations they were having, it seemed to be a high-tension situation. The man seems to be letting the girl know, once the operation is done everything will be "fine" and they can go back to being happy. The girl seems distracted to me, and doesn’t seem to agree with the man but lets him know she does. I believe he wants her to come with him even though she thinks its a bad idea. I think he is making her second guess herself. Making her feel like he will change if she does even though she knows deep down that he won't. He keeps asking if she wants to try beers I believe so that he can make her wanna come and see all the other beers wherever they're going around the world. She is just neutral I feel. She just keeps saying "I feel fine" even though I feel like she's in a situation she doesn't want to be in. She wants to leave I think and do what she wants and I don't think what she wants is to be leaving with him. I was once in her situation, in a relationship I didn't want to be in. It was in his school when everyone was trying to find the perfect guy and the perfect girl so everyone was dating. I had 3 girl friends I always used to hang out with and they funny thing is we hung out with the same 3 guys. long story short we all started dating each other. I dated this kid, I don't want to say his name but it will be Sean for this story. Sean and I always hung out when we were with the others never alone like a real relationship. We all made plans and all went out together. Sean would always say "I love you." and I would just sit their and say "I love you too." Even though I didn't mean it. we dated for about 6 months before I decided to cut the relationship, but didn't know hoe to do it. I though one thing would get rid of him for good, cheating. It was tenth period we were about to get out of class and I was roaming the hall their I met up with "Adam". Adam and I took couple laps around the school when then he took his lips and kissed me. I felt really bad but I had no idea how to get out of it. so I did it. Then the bells rang and we both went our separate way. I walked out of school and immediately texted Sean and said "I cheated." he said "oh my god why would you do thus I though you loved me." I just tried too make everything better but he then said "If you tell me who it was with I won't be mad and we can get through this." That made my heart sink. I told him "I can't tell you." since it was someone he knew I didn't want them to get into an altercation.
When it was facially over and done I found out Sean was so mad and upset from one of his friends. His friend told me "He was so heated he was ready to go out and kill someone." I was shocked he could act that way since u never seen that side of him before but, its now 3 years later and I still feel like the shit I felt like when it happened. I feel like such a awful person and I know cheating is never the way to do anything.

Life Choice: To Tell the Truth?2/10/2018 This blog post is telling how someone has to keep a very sad and dark secret and how others in the world have to keep secrets just like hers. In What you dont know by Lulu Wang, this young girl tells the story about how she had to keep the secret of her grandmothers health. I do not think it was right to deceive their grandmother because she should know that she's dying and she should get the chance to live the rest of her life. They kept the biggest secret of all from her. They gave her a fake medical paper that way she didn't know what her actual prognosis is. The whole family was in on the lie which is not right. lying is lying no matter what. Lulu didn't want to be apart of it but to say goodbye to her grandmother she had to, which is sad. Its hard to lie to someone you love especially if their dying. Its a horrible thing to do, in my opinion. When they decided to use the wedding as a goodbye party its a good idea but its also sad. Apparently in china crying at funerals is a sign of showing respect and by not crying while saying goodbye to your dying grandmother is a hard thing to do inside because you know she's dying and you cant show her the respect she deserves. Also, Lulus dad was very emotional because everyone knows except his mom. I had to make a hard decision not to tell my grandmother the truth also. when i was younger it was always hard to tell someone i love the truth. Especially to my grandmother. She is the most important person in my life. If my family and i got into a fight i would call her if i fought with anyone i would call her and she would always be able to comfort me. I had to tell my grandmother everything was going to be okay for her husband, my pop-pop, even though i knew it was not going to be okay. My pop-pop has had cancer three times. Once in the mouth where they had to cut out a piece of his tongue to use as extra skin for his mouth. A month ago he had lung cancer. He was staying in the hospital and still acted like his own self. he went through weeks of radiation and finally got over it. Recently He was just diagnosed with cancer in the brain. My grandmother has been through a lot with him and i do not know what she would do if he lost his battle some day. My pop-pop is the funniest guy around no matter how he feels he still somehow makes a joke about it. My grandmother does not know how he does it she's stressed and scared and he acts like nothings wrong. I know if something did happen my grandmother would get through it but its the fact that she wants him to be okay and to keep fighting but i do not know much longer he can fight for. My grandmother knows what the outcome with be its just when, but i have to keep telling her these lies about everything will be fine even though i know it wont be.
