Ummm.....
IDK if we're supposed to blog on that story because it's not on Clary's but I'm going to do it anyway. I think the girl in the story was conceited. But I could tell that there was some doubt and jealousy in her mind, because of how she describes herself in comparison to her sister. And also how she's always like she knew she was pretty and looking in the mirror. It seemed like she had to keep reassuring herself. But obviously music has a special meaning because it is repeated several times. And just to put my guess out there I think something is going to happen to her. She might get hurt, raped, or stalked by the dude in the car that said he was gonna get her. Then again he could just be a character that showed that others also thought she was attractive.

Hi Shannon
I love how you've made your blog personal! Some good ideas here. Please follow guidelines for Online Writing Journal with each post. Include textual citations to back up ideas. Why conceited? Why jealous? What comment do you think Joyce Carol Oates is making about gender and beauty? You also note that Connie may be insecure, constantly "reassuring herself." This is very interesting. Take this further. Go that you make predictions about the second half of the story. I'll look forward to your next post.
