Hello America Post # 2

Quote Number 1 
Page 49 
"but remember the lesson you've learned from it,"adds another. 

I am not sure what these quote relates to  from the seven questions. I chose this quote because it really got my attention. It made stop reading for a while and think about what Elli was feeling when this quote came to her mind. 
I think Elli really thought about it, right away when she heard these quote. I think Elli is a really smart person who likes learning from her mistakes. I think she is one of those people who right away when they know they are about to do something  wrong. they think about their mistakes from the past and thinks about the lesson that they got from those mistake. I think that's a really big quality that Ellis has because most of us learn from our mistakes, most of the time, but there's times when we are not strong enough to listen to what we know is best for us and we keep making mistakes over and over again.

I can totally relate to this quote and my significance. I also seam to learn from my mistakes and most of the time I try my best not t ignored them. Whenever I think about all that things that I've learn form my mistakes in the passed. I save my self from getting in trouble. I think thinking about the lesson's that we learn from our mistakes in the passed. can really help us stay out of trouble.

Quote #1: I do agree that the quote it makes you stop and think but, that isn't a very powerful quote. I also agree with you because I think that Elli is smart, and it will help her, later on in life. Elli will take the hard time that she had and will always be aware of her surroundings.

Question #1:I don't really understand the question, but i will try to answer it. Elli felt weird having everyone tell her to learn from her mistakes and i think that she doesn't want that to ever happen again.

Quote #2: You don't have one.

Question #2:The author is saying that Elli needs to learn from this experience. To make sure it doesn't happen again.

Quote 1: I think that they are trying to say that they should learn from their mistakes. Also that this will help them latter.

Question 1: I think that she felt surprised that people were like that in the U.S. Also i think that she knew now not to make that mistake again.

Quote 2: You don't have one.

Question 2: I think she is trying to say that even though you make a mistake you can learn from it. Also that you will eventually forget about it but you will remember the lesson you learned.
