Were we supposed to be writing about a current song? I'm pretty sure we were supposed to be finding something current... oh well. There were so many songs to choose from but the song I chose was 'Just Friends' by Musiq Soulchild. The song has good melody. It's a r&b song and its just one of those songs I've never really gotten tired of listening to. Being the hopeless romantic that I am, I like the song. Even though it's titled 'Just Friends' its a song about the beginnings of a relationship.
I am still a little blogspot challenged so I wasn't sure how to but the music on the blog so you have to go to this link sorry but its youtube so it won't play in school : (

Jay and Nick
Before I wrote this I had to think about what defines friendship. A friend is a companion, someone you like and trust, can share things with and is there for you.
Nick and Gatsby have a strange relationship. They probably wouldn't be talking to each other if Gatsby didn't want to meet Daisy. Towards the end of chapter five I almost feel like Gatsby forgot about Nick. In some ways I understand since this is the first time in a long time that Gatsby gets to see Daisy but at the same time it's like Nick is forgotten because his help isn't needed any more. Nick doesn't seem to necessarily like Gatsby. It just seems like he's interested in Gatsby's mysterious ways.
There is however something between them that feels like their going to become close friends. Nick is willing to help Gatsby and kind of supports him when he gets nervous about meeting Daisy. Gatsby tells Nick about himself and his past which he doesn't do for most people. In some ways they fit my definition of friendship. For now though I say they're more on the verge of becoming friends but haven't made it there yet.

winter poem
The feet that walk the ground they cringe
with what's left of their numb limbs
the grumble of the shovel holders and the rage of the drivers
how mother nature has taken revenge at last
putting her wrath upon us.
But wait!!!
The children they frolic in the bus passenger's devastation
as lovers curl up in the shovel's pain
when cocoa drinkers sip to the drivers rant
and is that joy spread across the caroler's faces
Is. That. Joy........
It is joy..... it is trouble
It is winter
with what's left of their numb limbs
the grumble of the shovel holders and the rage of the drivers
how mother nature has taken revenge at last
putting her wrath upon us.
But wait!!!
The children they frolic in the bus passenger's devastation
as lovers curl up in the shovel's pain
when cocoa drinkers sip to the drivers rant
and is that joy spread across the caroler's faces
Is. That. Joy........
It is joy..... it is trouble
It is winter
