The Power Within!

I have give little thought on question which provoked a statement. When making a decision I mostly focus on the "would this be an interesting story" factor. Right now in my life I really should be making decisions that are going to shape the rest of my life, but no I really don't believe that crap. The main thing I focus on when I make a "different word for decision" is how attached I have to be and my freedom within the choice. I rarely enjoy being shut into something, My decision making skills have been described as aloof and some what eccentric. Right now I really have to decide my path of higher education. The hard part about this my incompatibility with today's process of higher education.

Spraventure.

First off I would like to say I had an awesome break, although it was very detrimental to my overall dwindling work ethic. I caught up on some sleep, but then lost track of those precious Zs then tried to catch up with them and lost them again. I did a lot of, dare I say it, spring cleaning. My room and car are both inhabitable again. I cut down a 25 foot tree with a hand axe. Thinking back I've come to realize that I spent a majority of my time playing pool. when the weather was nice I sat outside and worked on whittling a cane. It's great to be back

Place in the world.

I really get a feeling the Fermine is the focus of the Novel. There is a great understanding of who she wishes to be and what she is. The choices she has made in her life, mainly dealing with love felt very, careless and brash. Ultimately it is her contracting Cholera that forces her end. Let the story of life set, just as the sun fades on the horizon.

The Love Song.

One recurring event that I feel serves a higher calling are the love songs for Farmine that both Urbino and Florentino compose. The difference between the two are that Florentos love song is composed and performed by him and his melancholy violin and Urbino hires a pianist to play for Fermine. Florentos labor for his song I feel shows that his love is true and deep routed, while Urbinos hiring the pianist shows that his love is shallow and mostly skin deep.

FLASHBACK

The style of Marquez is extremely original and in my opinion very textured. I found that while reading I could really feel the emotions the characters were feeling, but not in the sense of feeling their feelings, but in the sense that I got a feeling for texture of the feeling. That may sound a little weird but It is the best I could do at explaining the genius of Marquez. His use of non linear story progression felt extremely refreshing and his imagery was very high on my list. In my opinion the best characteristic of this writing was the use of subtly. Nothing could be definitively proven. It really is no wonder this is a classic.

Who's Confused?

Okay so far I'm pretty confused as to why Fermine is turning down the young Dr. Urbino. I just don't get what made her turn down Florentino, but now that shes turning down Urbino I can't really trust Fermine. When Urbino died she only wished that he would have lived longer so that she could tell him of the depth of her love; although when she is first introduced to the character of Urbino he is drastically similar to the earlier Florentino but substantially better
