What kind of person is Titus?
Titus is a very calm person. He seems to keep to himself a lot and he is not like the rest of his friends. Even though he has the feed he still seems to come off as normal in a lot of parts of the book especially when he is with Violet. Titus to me seems like he doesn't want to be like everybody else that is why he acts so different.72

How does he compare to his friends?
When it comes to attitude Titus is very different from his friends. He seems to try to be the one in the corner all the time. Titus's friends seem to be wild and out-going and he chooses not to act that way he would rather be quiet and sit back and watch. The feed seems to effect his friends more but he doesn't seem to let it effect him as much.71

What kind of person is Violet?
Violet is what I would consider "normal". I would consider her normal because she knows how to do things on her own besides using the feed. She didn't get the feed as soon as other kids did because her parents couldn't afford it so she learned how to do things on her own. Violet is also the kind of person who wants to be like others but she doesn't try to fit in.74

Why does Violet want to be "normal"? What is normal?
I think Violet wants to be normal because she is to much different from the others. Its kind of like she knows how to think on her own. I also think that she feels like an out cast. No one is like her and no one acts like her. Everybody is into the feed and she's not, so I think she tries to get into it so she can be like everyone else. In this case normal is not thinking for yourself the computer does it for you. In the book the chat inside the head so some dont talk. They travel to a moon to have fun like we go to parties and movies for fun. They cant function without their feed. The feed is what makes them "normal".

Connecting this my life...
Like Titus and Violet I try to stand out from the rest of the crowd. Its okay to fit in and be like others sometimes but I have my limits. I like to be different because I dont want to be known as being the same like others i think people should have a "uniqueness" about them. At the same time I know how to be normal and not come off as wierd.

Who inspires me

The person who inspires me the most is my cousin Jessica. My cousin Jessica inspires me because she has done some very impressing things throughout her life. My cousin Jessica goes to school at Concordia in St.Paul Minnesota. She is in her 3rd year of college. She works a job downtown at the government center. She is very independent. She is independent and thats what I like about her. She has an apartment and she has her own car. My cousin is only 21 years old and I think she is doing better than most 21 year olds because most of them still live at home with their parents. Jessica is the type of person who will try to help you if she can. When ever I have a problem and I need to talk to someone I call my cousin Jessica and she gives me good advice. I think my cousin is a good person and I would like for her to continue the positive things that she does.
