Guided Respones

10 of my favorite phases/sentences
Catch By: Will Leitch
1. pg 3 – I’d have to be a complete moron not to actually graduate.
- This sentence reminds me a lot of my graduation day because my high school was easy. If you just went to school then you were going to graduate, the teachers were going to make sure they did not have to see you next year.
2. pg 7 – “From all of us here at Mattoon High School, we say congratulations, graduates!”
- Another sentence that reminds me of my graduation day, when everyone it congratulating on graduating high school. People make it seem like a really big deal but in my mind it was not that great of an accomplishment because when I got to college, I had realized that my high school really did nothing for me.
3. pg 15 – It’s your big day.
- When I hear someone say “It’s your big day”, I think of a birthday so that is why I choose this saying because I think birthdays are great.
4. pg 21 – No sleep is enough.
- I totally agree with Tim here on this one, no matter what I always feel tried. Even if I get a good eight hours sleep I am still tried, I just do not understand that sometimes.
5. pg 26 – Man, could I do some damage to this girl.
- I hate when I hear this come out of a guys mouth. It’s like they are just looking at us, us objects not people with real emotions. I just wish men could realize that we are human beings too.
6. pg 40 – It’s the Cardinals!
- I had to choose this saying because one I am a Cardinals fan, and two because Tim Temples is a really big Cardinals fan and he watches almost every game they play.
7. pg 51 – This is what I’ve been missing?
- I like this sentence because when I say it, it gives me some kind of relief knowing that I have actually not missed anything at all.
8. pg 109 – “You’re dazzling, baby dazzling!
- I picked this saying because when I read this part of the book it made me laugh trying to picture Tim being Dean Martin.
9. pg 177 – Don’t screw it up. Don’t be an idiot.
- Tim says this a lot throughout the book after him and Helena start having there thing. Every time I read it, I always think about a guy falling in love for the first time and they are trying there hardest to be the best guy ever when he really just needs to be himself.
10. pg 213 – “Old lady gave you a night off?”
- I hate when other guys tease each other when one has a girlfriend he likes to spend time with, more than some of this lame friends. Guys just do not realize how much affect they have on other guys and that’s why I picked this saying.

Catch by: Will Leitch

What I like about Catch so far is that it is a really down to earth book. The whole time I have been reading this book I can actually believe what he is saying about his friends, family, girlfriend, and work. This book really brings really life to your face. The parts in the book that stirs up my emotions is whenever Tim kind a freaks out to himself about really liking Helena. You can always remember how you first felt when you started to fall in love with someone. You try are hardest to be with them every second of the day and night. The good thing about that is Tim and Helena work at the same place. So that probably relaxes Tim a little bit. Then you never want to make that person mad at you. Which sometimes I think Tim does not speech his mind because he does not want to piss of Helena. But I guess in the long run I could be a good thing. A couple of problems Tim has are that one he has never really had a girlfriend so he does not know how to act. Two he does not want to come off as needed because that then Helena will for sure run away from. So Tim does his best trying not to look needed but also trying to show Helena that he really likes her and thinks that he might want to spend the rest of his life with her.
