Placida Linero is Santiago Nasar's mother and has a well-earned reputation of being an interpreter of dreams. She is also the widow of Ibrahim Nasar, Santiago's deceased father. On the day of her son's death, she did not pay particular attention to the trees in Santiago's dreams and failed to warn him of his impending doom. Instead, she dismissed his dream, as "any dream about birds meant good health" (4).That was the last time she saw her son alive. Everyday, Placida Linero "would wake up at seven, have her coffee, and come down to give instructions for lunch" (125).

Sometimes I think that the dream still isn’t dead in me, especially since this past Thanksgiving. This year, my family (my mother, my sister and I) decided to be a host family to two Great Lakes Naval Base Boot Camp members for the holiday. On Thanksgiving morning, my mother and I went to pick up our two ‘recruits’. I was so stuck in a cloud, dreaming of spending my holiday with tow muscle-bound hotties, that it never occurred to me what happened next. Two young ladies approached us and introduced themselves as Midshipman MacIntosh and Shipman McDonough.

It was my best friend, Kayleigh’s birthday, which coincidentally happened to fall on Christmas Eve as well. She had invited me, along with a group of friends, to a fancy French cuisine restaurant downtown for her birthday cum Christmas Eve dinner. Kayleigh and I had planned for that celebration for quite a long time then, and we anticipated a great one to happen that night. Kayleigh and I were the first to arrive there. “Kayleigh, k-a-y-l-e-i-g-h”, she told the manager as he ran his finger down a long list of reservations and gave a small green tick at her name, before showing us our table.
