In Journal Entery 6 I will write 3 topics and their purpose from the passage from chapter 13 pages 119-120.
Topic 1: The topic sentance I chose is from paragarph one. When the narrator states,
"She had waited all her life for something, and it had killed her when it found her." (Hurston). I think that this topic sentance is relating to past memories because she has waited for "something" and that "something" probably never came in the past. I also think that it has something to do with Tea Cake because the second part of the topic states that "it had killed her when it found her." probably means that Janie had faced Tea Cake and remiced about passed memories. I also think that that line has to do with dreams and irony. It has to do with dreams because usually when someone waits for something it's usually something they have wanted for a long time. However I cant really define if the line is about dreams or Tea Cake. because to me they both have to do with waiting and wanting their dreams and this "it" that Hurston keeps mentioning, it makes me look towards Tea Cake because of the sense it has to do with memories.
Topic 2: My second topic choice is from the second paragraph of the passage, "The thng made itself into pictures an hung around Janie's bedside all night long." (Hurston).
In this topic you can see a lot of literary terms and a conection to the first topic sentence. The narrator here now mentions "the thing" insted of "it". And I think that this thing she's mentioning is refering to dreams and memories because when you sleep you have dreams. And in Janie's case she was replaying this dream or memorie that she had in her thoughts.
Topic 3: My third topic that I chose was, "Maybe Ah'm is uh fool, Lawd, lad ley say, but Lawd, Ah been so lonesome, and Ah been waitin' Jesus. Ah done waited uh long time" (Hurtson).
