He got to the state where his pay from the monkey mine could not support his expensive drinking habits and started drinking the cheap alcohol made from Fish waste coming in from China.

Ming asked John why he had not returned to monkey mine and John said that he was to embarrassed to go back. Ming convinced John to come back and when John returned he was welcomed warmly.
That’s a reason I would want monkey as my leader. Another reason I would want monkey as my leader is because of his bravery. He was brave enough to fight a demon, turn tricks during master Subhodi’s class about learning how to be immortal. Sometimes his bravery doesn’t end up so well. The last time he pulled a trick in class he got kicked out and sent back to the cave where all the monkeys were; but anyway it’s good to have a brave leader.

His disdain for professional hockey had been growing for some time but this marked his lowest point as a hockey fan. This also marked his withdrawal from professional hockey as a fan fittingly with the Los Angeles Kings capturing the Stanley Cup just as everything they stood for became the predominant focus of the sport. Moving back to the present, Bowling examines the alluring elements of the game and weighs them against the factors that keep hockey from being relevant in his life. He claims that professional hockey is scripted like a novel, complete with recognizable heroes, villains, and an entertaining plot exerting a “primal pull”(212) on his attention. He continues by admitting that even despite the diluted talent from the expansion of the National Hockey League he is still awestruck by the beauty and grace displayed by the most talented players.
Mr Tom and Scrooge (How they change) Mr Tom is a character from the novel ‘Good Night Mr Tom’ and, Scrooge, from ‘A Christmas Carol’. In this essay I will explain how both characters change in a similar way. At the start of the novel tom is impatient with Willie as he says ‘I ent got all day’ which is a harsh welcome because Willie goes in the house for the first time. He is also a bit annoyed when Willie says ‘I can’t go aht wivout me socks’ and he snorted ‘why?’. This shows that tom thinks Willie is weird.
Dr. Oliver Sacks first met Greg in April of 1977 at the Williamsbridge Hospital. Oliver would try to answer the question, “What happened to Greg?” He began observing Greg which was one of the research methods used along with questioning him, repetitive learning, and becoming a part of Greg’s life. What he found was that if any questions were asked that were past the year of 1969 Greg did not have the answer. Instead he would use one of his “current events.” Greg was marooned in the 60’s. Greg was totally blind and refused to believe it.
This effect of PTSD slowly causes the destruction of Charlie that we see in the end of the book. “I don't really want to talk about the questions and the answers. But I kind of figured out that everything I dreamt about my aunt Helen was true. And after a while, I realized that it happened every Saturday when we would watch television” (Chbosky 213). This is the moment that we see Charlie really take charge of his own life, and understand the consequences of trying to block out a memory like this
Sammy and his decision Most men will try their hardest just to impress women. This is what A&P is all about. Sammy, who works as a cashier in a supermarket, gives us a perfect example what he done to impress a girl. His poor decision to quit his job was a bad decision and will definitely have a big effect on him in the future. In the very first sentence Sammy seemed shocked, "In walks three girls in nothing but bathing suits" (Updike).
Victor literally compared himself to a slave because he was extremely caught up in his work. Honestly I’m not too fond of Victor’s personality because of how obsessed he got with science. Maybe he just was too nerdy of a person for me I don’t know I just can’t make many connections with him. Also, I find it weird that he becomes friends with a girl named Elizabeth then his parents adopt her because her parents died then the parents say that they should marry some day. I find that odd because I think that brothers and sisters should not marry or fall in love no matter if they are adopted or not, I just find that strange.
