Reflective Reading for Chpt. 14-17

First of all I like to say the Meme reminds me of a typical teenage girl. Her strict up tight mother sends her away to school and when she comes back she falls in love with a man. Who according to Fernanda is low class. So Fernanda forbids Meme to see him, locks her up in the house and is not allowed to go anywhere. Of course as we all (teens) know that that will never work because if we really want something or someone we will manipulate our parents to get it. I mean that's what we do. Fernanda, however, takes it to far when she had Mauricio shot. What the hell are you thinking! Don't you know that your only pushing Meme away more! Sure enough Fernanda pushed Meme away so much that Meme never spoke again for the rest of her life. Of course to make matters worse she sends Meme away to school. Goodness I'd hate my mother if she ever did that to me. Not only are you taking away her one true love, but sending her half way across the world! Now that's just cruelty. Poor Meme. I feel your pain girl!
Now here we have Aureliano Segundo who is jumping from Fernanda to Peitra. Make up your mind boy! Not only is that weird, but also gross behind comparison. Just imagine your dad jumping from one girl to the other. Disgusting I know, but shouldn't Fernanda and Pietra have the common sense to reject him when he comes back? They have to know that he won't choose one. Aureliano Segundo is the type of guy who doesn't want to run out of options. Then again, I guess we can't put to much blame on Aureliano, the two girls should know better.
It brings me much sadness to say that Ursula is finally gone! Oh how much I will miss her, but its okay because shes in a better place. Bless her soul.
Poor Macondo is going down hill it is not the same happy village it used to be. Then again "what do you expect time does that."
