The Fault In Our Stars Character Traits

Although Hazel has some good values indicated, she also has a tendency to have very little patience for people who are fake or superficial. In Hazel’s perspective towards her peers, Hazel strives hard in making her parents proud, despite losing in some contests which required her thinking abilities but looking at some prodigies like her classmate, Cynthia Proctor, who gets what they want without any effort, she gets easily irritated and said: “I could kill people like that”. Another of which annoys Hazel is her nemesis and competition on the race which is Gretchen and her two little sidekicks, Rosie and Mary Louise. These are stereotypical young girls who provided a stark contrast to Hazel’s maturity and poise. These characters are flat and undeveloped, while Hazel’s character is round and rich.

Firstly, within the novel, it is clear that Hazel is a caring person and is fully aware of what her body’s condition does to her

The book The Fault In Our Stars by John Green is about a teenage girl named Hazel who has had a type of lung cancer since she was thirteen years old. Hazel had always felt pain throughout her life, weather it was emotional or physical pain because of her cancer, or losing important things to her. After Hazel met Augustus though, her thoughts about life began to change. In this book, the author used a lot of figurative language and some symbolism to show the reader exactly how the Hazel and other characters were feeling, so the reader could almost feel what the character was feeling.

Another factor that turns Alice into a hero is her slow confrontation of fear. Alice’s fear accompanies her from the beginning of the movie. Fear of meeting other’s expectations, fear of how her future will unfold and it causes her nothing but stress. She seems to be one of those people who tend to be caught in awkward situations which puts more pressure on her shoulders and makes her unsure of what to do. Her fear of other people in general might not be as noticeable as her fear of appearance to other people.

He is also always up for a risk even if it means that he is risking himself but he will not let others get harmed or left behind. He is always going to be confident by going someplace where he doesn't know what he is going to find. They left the original warren because Fiver says he can see into the future, he says something bad is going to happen soon so a couple of the rabbits leave and they gather more rabbits along the way. “‘Fiver and I will be leaving the warren tonight,’ he said deliberately. ‘I don't know exactly where we shall go, but we’ll take anyone who is willing to come with us’” (page 14). Hazel is strong and brave and is willing to go anywhere to help his friends from not being harmed by anything that they may come across. Being brave really helps the leader be a better leader than they already are because they are confident enough to do what is needed although it may scare them. Although Hazel got injured because of the men that came to kill and hurt the rabbits, he still powered through the pain and was a great leader even while he was hurt. Hazel was strong even when he go hurt from running away from the men and falling into a hole that he couldn't get out of. When Hazel was missing because he was in the woods and injured his friends were looking for him because they need him around for them to be safe. Hazel is great at doing what is needed like finding food to survive and helping others get where they need to be. Hazel is always super supportive, for example when they were at the new warren one day the went outside and they found an injured bird and Hazel demanded that they help him and make him get better. Hazel told all of the other rabbits to find food for the bird Kehaar. “‘I believe it's starving,’ said Hazel. ‘We'd better feed it. Bigwig, go and get some worms or something. There's a good fellow’” (page 181) Hazel is being a leader here because he is telling Bigwig to go

San Francisco is a relatively unique city when it comes to surrounding geology and geography. San Francisco is located on a peninsula and the city limits define a seven by seven mile square (approximately 49 miles). The city is surrounded on the West by the Pacific Ocean, the North by the Golden Gate Strait, and the East by the San Francisco Bay. The San Francisco Peninsula pushes itself into the San Francisco Bay, which is a conglomerate of smaller, interconnected bays bordering the larger cities of San Francisco, San Jose, and Oakland, and is responsible for draining 40 percent of California’s water.

In The Fault in our Stars, by John Green, Hazel Grace Lancaster hardest decision is whether to be with Augustus Waters or not. Although, this might seem like a simple decision but for Hazel this decision changed who Hazel was as a person. John Green demonstrates how Hazel decisions make an effect on her when she egged Isaac's, Augustus best friends, girlfriends, car, “You see, we may not look like much but between the three of us we have five legs, four eyes and two and a half working pairs of lungs but we also have two dozen eggs so if I were you, I would go back inside.” She never had the encouragement to go have some fun, take risks and live life before she met Augustus. After Isaac's girlfriends broke up with him because of his cancer

Hazel grace is a dynamic character because she changes throughout the story. In the beginning, Hazel doesn’t want to get close to Augustus, because she was afraid he is going to be shattered when she dies. But towards the ending, hazel finds out it doesn’t matter if you die in the middle of a relationship, it’s about the moments you spend together. A quote in the book, on page 214, “Only now that I loved a grenade did I understand the foolishness of trying to save others from my own impending fragmentation: I couldn’t unlove Augustus Waters. And I didn’t want to.”

She desperately starts to look for this last testament with hope that she could have changed something. Later comes depression; in the finding and hunting for Gus’s last testament she feels frustrated and slowly starts to depress. Until that spark of flame ignites her and she reaches the last stage of grief, which is acceptance. She finally finds the last testament which ends with this: “You don’t get to choose if you get hurt in this world but you do have a say in who hurts you, and I like my choices, and I hope she likes hers. Okay, Hazel Grace?”. (Green. 313) With her response being: I do. Peter Van Houten became a monster after he lost his daughter to Leukemia. He is a symbol of what you can become if you do not overcome grief. John Green was wise when incorporating him to the novel because he put him as a species of foreshadowing tool of what could have happened if Hazel would not have accepted Augustus’s death. She saw that and she accepted

Third, Hazel is a person to admire since she’s humorous. Specifically, Hazel talks about her diagnosis with Stage four thyroid cancer when she was thirteen. “(I didn’t tell him that the diagnosis came three months after I got my first period. Like: Congratulations! You’re a woman. Now die)” (Green 24). This shows Hazel is a person to admire since she is humorous because she jokes about the irony of her becoming a woman to soon be basically diagnosed with character and most likely dying instead of being depressed or self-pitying. Lastly, Hazel is a person to admire since she is smart. In particular, when first conversing with Augustus in the car, she mentions that due to her condition, she had to drop out of from high school, and she can’t go back since she already has taken her GED so now she taking classes from the local community college. This shows that Hazel is a person to admire since she is smart because although, she has dropped out of school, she was still able to take the quite tough test, GED, in order to do so, and seems to be fine taking college level classes at her age of sixteen. Therefore, Hazel is funny and smart, making her a person to admire. In conclusion, the main character in The Fault in Our Stars by John Green, Hazel Grace Lancaster, is an admirable

Hazel has a strong identity in the story, she has much self-confidence and is not afraid of letting everyone know that she is the best, “Now some people like to act like things come easy to them, won’t let on that they practice. Not me. I’ll high-prance down 34th street like a rodeo pony to keep my knees strong even if it does get my mother uptight.” p. 1 ll. 29-31. Thus her strong and proud personality, she still loves and protects Raymond and is not afraid of showing this either. At the end of the story Hazel’s view on other people changes, when she sees Raymond running parallel with her at the May Day race in his own unique style. She realizes that everyone is not just who she sees them to be, that there are more to people than you can

Augustus makes an impact on Hazel’s life. Augustus and Hazel meet at Support Group and grow a close bond. Augustus and Hazel fall deeply in love throughout the story. When Augustus’ cancer sprung up again, he asked Hazel to write him an eulogy. In Hazel’s eulogy she says, “My name is Hazel. Augustus Waters was the great star-crossed love of my life. Ours was an epic love story, and I won’t be able to get more than a sentence into it without disappearing into a puddle of tears”(Green 259). This shows that when Augustus dies he will leave a (mental) scar on Hazel, because Hazel will deeply miss Augustus when he dies. Augustus transformed Hazel

Why is it important to incorporate CSR in the operations? How did Nike do this?

Despite the adversity they face, the characters in The Fault in Our Stars identity lies within their inner selves, and is not defined by societal expectations. Hazel expresses her frustration with the lesser standard that is expected of cancer patients, saying “According to Maslow, I was…unable to feel secure in my health and therefore unable to reach for love and respect and art…which is utter horseshit: The urge to make art or contemplate philosophy does not go away when you are sick” (Green 213). According to society, cancer patients, and those who are not “secure in their health” are restricted from experiencing life at its fullest. The outside world sees Hazel in singular terms, as “a cancer kid”, unable to reach for greatness;
