According to the article, Eddie’s mom says that, “In a few months, everyone will be into some other style, and you’ll be out 170 bucks.” Eddie’s mom does not think that buying a new pair of expensive brand-name shoes is a good idea, because she thinks that they will go out of style and Eddie might regret buying them.

“Two Years he walks the Earth, no phone, no pool, no pets, no cigarettes. Ultimate freedom. An extremist. An aesthetic voyager whose home is the road. Escaped the Atlantic. Thou shalt not return, ‘cause “the west is the best.” And now after two rambling years comes the final and greatest adventure… bring him to the great white north. No longer to be poisoned by civilization he flees, and walks alone upon the land to become lost in the wild.” (Krakauer 163). Chris McCandless was a smart and adventurous young man who loved to challenge his abilities in the wilderness. He journeyed to Alaska to try and find himself.

In the debate, Eddie’s mom writes a letter to Eddie describing why he should not obtain the sneakers. In her letter she writes, “Phycologist

“Wade, I’ll be back soon, going to take out the trash,” Peter mumbled, yellow, rubber gloves covered his hands and a look of disgust was twisted into his boyish features. He held the bag a little away from him, uncaring if it just fell apart on the floor right then, no way was he even considering putting his hands anywhere but where the excess plastic was at the top. Without much of a thought (other than every synonym to the word gross), Peter went to put on some random shoes by the door, unable to find his own worn sneakers, and to his luck, the one and only paired happened to be Wade’s sleek, red pumps. Peter wasn’t even sure why they were out, they were usually hidden away in a closet collecting dust along with every other pair of heels and flats the older man had.

The Fourth CAOP, had us interview someone from a different generation, I interviewed my coworker Carissa, who is sixteen years older than I am. Carissa and I had many similarities on how we grew up, but also many things that differentiate between us, culture and class roles and racial differences. Carissa’s upbringing made me realize how we are brought up and the environment that one is exposed to, shapes who you become or who you would have become. I learned from her life and my life privilege and upbringing were the main important role that got us where we are today.

She is drawn to it and eventually buys it, but she looks for a good price, and is still mindful of her budget. She was so busy worrying about how she was to feed her kids and wat to buy them she forgot to eat. This shows us how much responsibility she had, and I got a bit out of hand. Next, she goes to look at some gloves for herself, because hasn’t had a pair in a while. But while she is looking they were quite expensive, and she realized whenever she bought in the past they were very cheap. It wasn’t worth it to her, because there were other places she had to spend money. That is smart from Mrs. Sommers to think about what she is paying for, and whether it is beneficial for the price. She analyzes her situation well, and chooses not to buy the gloves, for they are

A:The Others are not honest people who want to wipe out the human race. They’re more intelligent, stronger, and more disciplined. The Others took my beloved family from me, one by one by one.

Eddie and his mother are debating on whether or not to buy a very expensive pair of Adidas sneakers. Once, I was looking for a new pair of tennis shoes right before school would start. After I had found the pair that I really liked, but the only downside to the purchase was the price. The risk of buying the new pair of shoes was very fortunate, because they are very comfortable and flexible. In Mom’s letter to Eddie, she tells him about what psychology had explained, the kind of happiness derived from material things does not last, like the sneakers he wants. “The habit of saving itself is an education; it fosters every virtue, teaches self-denial,

One reason Eddie should get these shoes is he saved up his money just for those shoes.
