Hey sorry for taking so long everybody. I unfortunately was not capeble of figuring out how to log-on by myself until the other day (thank you Kyle).

Anyway, going back to chapter one, I wanted to post one of my thoughts about Nick.
It's safe to say that Nick has had a fairly interesting life. A Yale graduate, growing up in the midwest as well as fighting in World War I. After returning from the war he tried staying in the midwest but was not able to because he was looking forward to more interesting things since life had become bland to him. He looked to move east, to the city, where he could move forward. There seems to be a theme to his attitude of getting more, and moving up and on to greater things. I was wondering though, after his visit to Tom and Daisy's if he began to question the lifestyle of upperclass people. I think he felt they were superficial, and fake. It will be interesting to see if his goals change or if he composes a new attitude towards the meaning of success, especially as the novel progresses and he interacts more with this lifestyle.
