| "Is that a plunger coming out of that BOTTLE? o_____O" Okay, OKAY.... I can't delay you from the horrible memories of Charlie's ANYMORE. *SIGH* So after Charlie had his surgery, he progressed slowly and slowly to become smarter. At first, he was frustrated and thought that the surgery didn't work because Charlie has struggled SO hard to become smarter... Everyday after work, he goes to Ms. Kinnan's class, does his progress reports, learns something new everyday, and falls asleep to a monitor that subconsciously teaches him things. As he becomes smarter and smarter, the spelling of his progress reports improves, he learns things at a rapid rate and he learns things about himself. He realizes that his friends are jerks who used him to get their... SICK KICKS. People start to treat him differently because they feel "dumb" around him. Charlie even starts to understand his, *ahem* ACTIVE glands... He starts to see the world around him for what it is... and it's sooooooo CRAPPY... Okay, I LIED... I didn't exactly tell you the "stories" but they are SO HORRIBLE that I didn't tell you so... you can call a "whambulence" cause I AIN'T TELLING!!!!!!!! >:( |
This book sounds so horribly depressing. I can't imagine what it would be like to realize that people who you thought of as your friends are really just jerks who make fun of you. Poor Charlie :(
ReplyDeleteI agree with Iron Knight but at the same time don't we have this moment? I'm sure everyone has looked around and seen who their true friends are and who is using them.
ReplyDeleteYeah, sad... Bet he wishes he didn't get that surgery. Also, the last book I read said a little bit about learning when you're sleeping, which turns out it doesn't work. They just memorize the information and though it's in there, he/she might not comprehend it.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the Human Race. But Charlie's wanting to be "normal" is perhaps the most human of wants. I know what it's like when those you trusted are actually not. Oh... the folly of it all.
