Character Unit Intro


Question: Do people ever really change?


I think that people do change in some specific categories. But some people change because of a bad thing while others change because of good things. For example, there was this friend that i have (who will be unknown) that he changed because of the things that started to change around him like his sister got married and she moved out, they were really close so it was like he had lost his best friend forever. So he started to behave even better to show his sister that he will always stay and be good (just for her). Then I had another friend (who will be unknown) that her little sister (that will also be unknown) got everything that she wanted and she got tired of it so she started to act so rudely with everyone. Then her grades started dropping and she just stopped coming to school for a while.

Another example for me could be in this book that i read named A Stranger With My Face by Lois Duncan that the main character Laurie Stratton changed by learning that she should be careful with the people that she trusts. For example, she went out with this boy but after a while he started to boss her around more often and told her what to do. And her twin sister was so nice when they first met (through astral projection-which is when you use your "spirit" to contact someone anywhere in the world) and then after a while her sister started to turn on her an tried to ruin her life!!!
