The Great Gatsby Alternate Ending Essay
Daisy looked upon a man
The man she met 8 years ago
His ocean blue eyes glistened in the sunlight

A little awkward silence in the beginning
Some words here and there
They knew they were in love

Heated faces and butterflies
While sipping tea
Getting to know each other all over again

Taking a step outside glancing to the clouds
Gatsby’s castle caught Daisy’s eye

Galloping around Gatsby’s house
Daisy flooding him with questions
Hearing the answers left her mouth open

On the floor listening to the pianist
Grabbed gatsbys hand and started dancing
Having the time of their lives

    When Harry Met Sall

    ‘When Harry Met Sally’ is a romantic comedy set from the mid 1970’s to the mid-to-late 1980’s. From the beginning the film seemed like the perfect example from Mark Knapp’s 10 stages of relational development. There was a plethora of talking and Harry was quite witty while Sally was very sweet and up-beat. As a personal opinion, at first the film seemed to be slightly boring plot-wise – a man and a woman meet to travel a ways to the city? Sounds like the perfect situation to ‘fall in love’ in and have a happily ever-after. Though, as more of the movie was watched, it became more interesting and less of an assignment requirement.…

    The Great Gatsby Chapter 5 Essay

    In Chapter 5, Daisy and Gatsby are reunited in Nick’s house and then Gatsby shows Daisy around his house. Gatsby attempts to reward Nick with money for helping bring him and Daisy together again, “Well, this would interest you. It wouldn’t take up much of your time but you might pick up a nice bit of money.” This shows how Gatsby is not used to people being hospitable towards him without wanting anything in return. It also demonstrates how Gatsby thinks he has to buy Nick’s loyalty in the hope that by bribing Nick with money, he won’t tell Tom about his meeting with Daisy. Nick refuses claiming, “I’ve got my hands full,” This reveals that Nick is very class conscious as he thinks he is above receiving money for something he has done. It also shows that he is aware of the corrupt criminal world that Gatsby is involved in because he doesn’t want to take the chance of getting involved in the same world as Gatsby.…

    Great Gatsby Essay

    Every individual has his own style, his own way of presenting himself on and off the field (Sachin Tendulkar ). Likewise, F. Scott Fitzgerald has his own unique way which he uses in his works that differentiates him from all the other authors. Furthermore, in the Great Gatsby, a historical fictional novel, F. Scott Fitzgerald paints a picture of a lifestyle and a decade that is both fascinating and horrific which to most people, is evocative and makes them look at their way of life in a different way. His style, especially in the great Gatsby is described as “lushly evocative” because his works have a brilliant understanding of lives that are corrupted by greed and are incredibly sad and unfulfilled.…

    Personality traits allow a writer to create vivid images of his characters. These traits are shown through actions because they are exhibited through behaviors. According to Physcology.about.com, “the trait theory suggest that individual personalities are composed of broad dispositions such as central and secondary traits” (Par. 5).Each character in a literacy work has a unique trait; however, multiple traits may occur more than just a single trait. Nick’s traits vary which are displayed. For example, Nick’s humble traits symbolize sincere respect, apprehensive assertiveness, and self-effacing demeanor showing maturity within The Great Gatsby, by F. Scott Fitzgerald.…

    The Great Gatsby Response Essay

    Scott Fitzgerald and the different principles of the 1920s. It uses words such as “Jazz” (popular type of music), “steps leading to my dreams” (the American dream), and “short-haired girls” (which was a new style back then) to illustrate the Jazz Age. Nick is the writer of this poem, and throughout the poem, he is observing and describing the different colors he sees in the party. The first stanza is orange and it symbolizes warmth, energy and vigour to illustrate the “jazz [roaring]”, the “rich golden sun” and the “oranges and lemons”. The second stanza is blue, and it symbolizes purity, life and tranquility to illustrate the “bright blue gardens”, the “champagne by the sea”, and the “sky”. The third stanza is green, and it symbolizes money and wealth to illustrate “new diamonds”, “lavish vacations overseas”, and “West Egg in the nineteen twenties” (a wealthy neighbourhood). The fourth stanza is black, and it symbolizes darkness and nothingness to illustrate the “shades of black and white”, the “lost hearts” and night-time (the word “tonight”). After Gatsby dies, Nick realizes that all of the guests were in fact fake and phony. Nobody really cared about Gatsby and merely liked him…

    Gatsby Essay

    "The beauty and splendor of Gatsby's parties masked the innate corruption within the heart of the Roaring Twenties. Jazz-Age society was a bankrupt world, devoid of morality, and plagued by a crisis of character," are the words of F. Scott Fitzgerald. This statement is true of the time period due to the fact that Daisy, Tom and Jordan were, in contrast to Gatsby, completely self-absorbed in their own pleasures, paying no attention to the honor and value of morality. At this time, many people began to take interest in material things rather than non-material things.…

    Gatsby Alternate Ending

    “What are you doing near my locker, dweeb?” Mason, the schools toughest jock yelled as he shoved me into the wall, causing a groan to escape my lips. I didn’t have time to answer as he threw me into the tile floor and the laughs of his delinquents echoed through the hallway. I felt like I couldn’t move, but I had to. I collected my scattered books and stumbled forward, holding on to myself more than I have before. My eyes were full with tears, but I couldn’t let my emotions slip more than they already have while everyone could see. I ran out of the school, and didn’t turn back. I had to get out of that hell.…

    Gatsby Essay

    As Azar Nafisi once said, “The negative side of the American Dream comes when people pursue success at any cost, which in turn destroys the vision and the dream.” The protagonist of Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby spent his lifetime following the American Dream in the hopes of winning his one true love and this led to his untimely downfall. Over the years, Aristotle’s definition of tragedy has been modified b every great writer in their generation and Fitzgerald is no different. Fitzgerald’s difference of tragedy with Aristotle is that the tragic hero is not of noble status and greatness. Gatsby is not of royal greatness but fulfills all the other criteria of a tragic hero. Like everything else, the typical tragic hero has evolved greatly since its beginning days and Fitzgerald has made a large contribution to its evolution with his tragedy, The Great Gatsby. Jay Gatsby is considered a modern day tragic hero because he fulfills all of the expectations a tragic hero in today’s day and age has.…
