I don't get why she like me, i always ignore her i thought she would get that I don't like her. So please tell me how to get rid of her.
- SCARED IN ATHENS
DEAR SCARED IN ATHENS: One thing i can tell you to get the crazy lady you are refering to is to start doing things that she thinks is annoying. You might also consider just walking up to the girl and telling her that you don't like her and you don't want to see her anymore, and that the night you spent together you where drunk and you didn't know what was going on. You could also considder trying to get one of your friends to go on a date with the girl. She might just stop once you get married and realize that she needs to find somebody else.
#4 By seeing a clip from the movie it helped me understand the book a little better because i was able to see what was going on in the book while it was happening. Most of the women wore hats and it made them look like they where rich. The men wore longe sleeve shirts. The peasents in the movie wore worn down clothing. It was mostly set in a small town. Some small buildings and a castle.
#3
#2 In the story it uses humor unintenionally. For example bottom was sure that he would get a great role in the play that he wanted to do but he got a different part. So he started to complain to the guy that he wanted a role that suited him more so he started to act out the parts, but each time the guy turned him down. Making him look like an idiot.
#1In the story the father and daughter do not get along, because she wants to mary lysander, but her father doesn't like him. He wants his daughter to marry Demetrius. Lysander was talked down upon, in front of every one, so it would embarress him if she married him.

In this book Tom Clancy seems to like to get into a good amount of detail for every thing that ends up happening during the book. He takes his time to get into the really important stuff by setting up every thing that happens. Then after a couple of chapters he usually has something big that happens during the story. He puts alot of action into a short time of reading, he has some parts of the story that seem to drag on but when he gets to a part that is good it is easy to get into the book.
