Character Profile: Lee Fiora

Lee Fiora is the main character in my book. She basically moved from her hometown in the midwest, Southbend, Indiana, to a new rich boarding school, Ault.
What the character says/ what the character does: I am writing about these two together because, I feel that they are kind of connected in a way and relate to one another. Lee Fiora thinks a lot about things. I would even say that she over thinks them. Stresses about little things and makes them into a big deal, this is easy to relate to because I do this sometimes too. Although so many thoughts run through her head, very few of them actually come out. She thinks about things to do, things to say, and how to act, but most of the time she never does it.
What others say about the character: Since there are so many students at Ault, and so many people that Lee comes in contact with everyday, certain people have different opinions about her. I am sure, that Conchita, the person she was supposed to room with but ended up ditching and for Conchita's friend, Martha doesn't consider her the most thoughtful person in the world. Although Conchita was very upset about this at first, she ended up not despising Lee although she felt used. But, Martha on the otherhand would think pretty highly of her. Although Martha is one of the rich kids at Ault, Martha and Lee can relate to each other really easily. I would even say that they're best friends.
Direct description from the author : The author does not give much of a direct description of Lee. I really can't think of any time where the author just directly talks about Lee. I am pretty sure there might have been a few sentences where that has happened, but nothing that really stood out.
How others act towards her: The way other people treat her depends on the way she treats people. There are a lot of people that she ends up not acting properly towards and they just end up leaving and never making any contact again. There are also people that end up drifting away from her and not being as close. Even though its not like they hate her, its just that with the way things are, its the only way.
In my opinion: In my opinion, Lee is ia very kind girl that is just trying to figure out what she wants to do and how to get adjusted at a school like Ault. Even though she hurt people's feelings she is just trying to learn and understand things better. She is only trying to find her way around and make the best of her situation.

Wow, I'm very impressed. Your blog entry was so organized and well thought out and written.

I love how you used what the character said and what others said about Lee Fiora to form your own opinion.

I didn't know you had to separate and organize it like that.
Overall, I love your blog entry, and Prep has been getting a lot of talk from our classmates so I can't wait to see what your reaction will be.
