Looking For Alaska by John Green p. 41-130

So far as I read my book one character that I noticed that changed alot was the main character Miles. Miles was always the kid at his school with no friends, but when he moved to his new school, he sees the opportunity to change his popularity. He starts doing things that could get in exspelled such as drinking, smoking, playing pranks on people, just so he can fit in with them.

I think that this change happened partly because Miles wanted to change his social life so much that he was willing to do things that he didn't really want to do. Another reason that I think brought on this change was Miles interest in his friend Alaska. Miles really liked Alaska and I don't think she is really interested in him because she has a boyfriend. I think that he liked so much that he was willing to do alot of things that he didn't want to do.

Have you ever changed or tried to change who you are to make friends or get someone to like you?

Ive never changed myself to get somebody to be my friend or for them to like me because having someone like you for being someone else or someone they want you to be dosen't mean as much as them liking you for the way you are.
