In this recent passage, Sonny finally had string enough urge to take the Grand Cloyd kept secret in his drawer. For his character, this can considered his biggest tragedy. Sonny has succumb to his desires in the past, but this has taken his been his biggest fall so far. Before, he would never take big bills because of fear of being caught. As my grouped discuss in this past week, we came up concluded that Sonny steals money because he feels he can better appreciate the money better than those who just leave around for him to steal.
I think he believes he can take better care of the Grand better than Cloyd, but there seems to be more than just his ideal of appreciation. I think that Sonny stealing the money he can in a way, retaliating at Cloyd. I think Sonny is getting back at Cloyd for because he feels he cannot connect well with him and he feels Cloyd is attacking him in way. But I think he is getting a type of rush, but necessarily classifying him as a Klepto.
From Sonny’s behavior with money, we could predict he will save the money and return it, but that would be too easy and be boring in mind. I predict Sonny will save the grand, but spend it on something meaningful. I think Sonny will possibly give the grand to another character in the book, someone whom he really is connection with or he fells has a positive influence in his life. My money is on Pink; get it money?
If I was in Sonny situation, and I already stole the money, I would feel exactly the same. I would be freaking, become paranoid, and the way Cloyd can get all furious, I would be crapping bricks also. I would also hold on to the money, and I would just as jumpy. Let’s be honest, we all have held on to material objects that we would get paranoid over if anybody found out. I’ve hidden some stuff here and there I got hell of worried if anybody found out, but good thing my room is a mess, if you were lost an earring, you will never see it again, ever!
I would honestly hold on to the money for a while, but then when Cloyd isn’t looking I would return it. I personally would be able to hide a grand, I would spend that maybe not all at once, but as time goes on, the pile would reduce over time. Like Sonny, anything under twenty, I would take easy and just hide it, but a Grand, that’s just way too much to hide in my current situation, if I had my own place and what not, and then I would be able to hide it with no problem.
Femme Fatale
The Carnal Sensations of the Human Desire, also known as sex, has finally taken effect in Sonny. As predicted, Sonny and Cindy had sex (I so called that), no surprise this antagonist would cause a fall for Sonny. Her character concept can follow the French “Femme Fetale” or the “Deadly Woman” in the ideas of Literature. She isn’t necessarily mysterious, but she is for one dangerous. People can agree on this, Women have massive influence over men and even though Sonny really likes it, but it has also cause fear with in him.
He kept thinking about what Tino do if he were to find out. “You’re gonna get me killed” (125). Cindy has great influence of Sonny and has brought sexual pleasure. Cindy has also taught Sonny how being unfaithful to one’s spouse, “He’ll never know…I promise not to tell him ever” (126). She began seducing Sonny form the start and she has gotten what she wants from him, not just sex, but she has Sonny satisfy her desires.
Cindy’s character is definitely strong and independent and seductive and I can relate with this in our everyday lives. I have a friend who isn’t like Cindy, but she is strong, seductive, and dangerous (depending how you look at it), and she got me all sexual and provocative, plus he is real sweet and nice. However, I know another girl who can fit the Femme Fatale perfectly because she has seduced men and had they sent to prison. I think that every guy has met his Femme Fatale here and there, and probably will again in their future. Plus I really like how she has the archetype character in this book.
More information on the Femme Fatale is she causes her mean to fall from grace, it’s a stretch, but when Sonny leaves from the Bowling Alley and takes the guys wallet, happens after he and Cindy have sex. He has stolen before, but he has never stolen from any random stranger in the street before. After meeting Cindy, she has caused Sonny to fall from his innocent and has grown more into his darker side. But as seen before as characters who play the Femme Fatale, will lead to a climax and she will play against sonny when he thinks she will help him.
Some other interesting things was that the Femme Fatale is French, and Sonny wants to France, and in French Culture, the older women teach the younger men about sexual activities, some interesting French connections in this book. This book also reminded me of “The Graduate” and Mrs. Robinson. Cindy plays Mrs. Robinson and sonny plays Ben; and Nica is Elaine. Femme Fatales are my favorite type of female character because being sexy and deadly is just so hot!
Externally, Cindy is a druggie skank who takes advantage Sonny. But if we examine more closely, she is the ever notorious literary character Femme Fatale. She is Dangerous and Seductive and will probably lead Sonny to eminent doom or at least the great conflict with him and Tino.

Sonny's New Horizon
On page 86 in The Flowers, Sonny describes a location he see’s while being sexually aroused by Cindy. The land location he describes for us as he closes his eyes is a Desert with a black sky and bright stars. He also describes the sky “too high and faraway that I could have never seen it from a city… as someone kept pointing it out like constellations I didn‘t see.” This passages primary purpose was to show the sexual awaking of Sonny. Showing how he takes anther step away from innocence and experiences more adulthood. We can see the growth from innocent observation to sexual interaction with his neighbor Cindy. With evidence of text from the passage, we can see how Sonny reacts and emotionally feels as his new found sexual arousal is made. We can also predict on this can affect his relationship with Cindy and predict a possible outcome with his relationship with Nica. An interpretation we can put in this passage is the unknown horizon Sony has yet to explore on sexual activity with girls. From the previous pages, we can see that Sonny doesn’t really much of sexual interactions with girls when he talks to the twins Jose and Miguel. He shows the “confidence” and talks the big talk, however when he experiences the sensation, he feels unsure and explores the new horizon he has entered. . What we can also say now about Sonny he now he has lost more of his innocence. Sonny has explored more into Human desire and he knows that he will want more of what Cindy has given him; “I couldn’t hold back if she didn’t stop, but she didn’t want to and I couldn’t stop myself.” Sonny knows that what he is doing is new and exciting and he enjoyed it, yet he doesn’t fully understand it all to well; “as someone kept pointing it out like constellations I didn’t see.” My classmates that have made predictions of Cindy and Sonny finally “interacting” have predicted well, but as seen before in coming of age stories, it was evident of the two finally coming together. We can see in the book that he acts differently with Nica than he does with Cindy. I think with this interaction, that his relationship with Cindy will be his sexual awakening and will affect the other relationship Sonny has with Nica. I think Sonny will try to have a more sexual relationship with Nica or at least try to have one with her but it won’t exactly plays out as he thought it would. Nica and Sonny have a more innocent relationship that has more emotion rather than sexual connection. It wouldn’t be a surprise if Sonny were to try and grow his relationship with Nica with more than and emotional connection. This passage illustrates a sexual awakening for Sonny and a change to his character as he explores his new horizon.
My Mother Never
My Mother never stop supporting me. She always believed in me not matter how different or difficult my task were. Every challenge I got (and still get), she always pushed me to my potential and always make sure I always put in my all. She supports in any decision I make with my activities or creative choices. No matter how fun, settle, or mind blowing I can get with my creativity, she always found what she liked about it and always loved them. She knows how important my movie projects are to me as my career pursuit, but she always checked with me to make sure my other priorities were in check. No matter what I did wrong, she would always forgive me and always made sure I knew that she loved me. She never gave up in me no matter how much of an handful I became. When I was younger I was the one nephew everyone did not want to see when my mom came down to visit. But after years of growing, and some what maturing, I'm the kid that my mom brags about his achievements and how much of good kid I am. My mom loves me unconditional and she always will. She never gave up on me and she will always support me not matter what I do. She disciplined me, but that doesn't mean she isn't forgiving. No matter how much I have grown up, succeed in my career or my financial growth, or if I'm 3 hours away, my mother never stops loving me.
I Am
A director who creates movies on what ever subject that interests me. I have Ambition and can make me selfish, cause' yes I'll cut you to get ahead and be on top! I;m determine to get things so if I want my film completed, I will get it done! I Love to spend time with my friends and be out and doing something like going to a club or being a "Party Boy." I'm an open book but it depends on who is reading me. I can be loud and expressive and become bored easily if I'm being too inactive, which is why I can be random and just say things people won't understand. I stay coupe up in my house a lot and I get easily bored and always need to do something that I enjoy rather just sitting, I need to be active or I get antsy and just move to be doing something. Like almost any other teenager, I'm vulgar and provocative and like I said, I will bluntly say it. I guess hobby wise, I like to make movies (which I get obsessive over), listen to music, put random movies on You Tube, and Auto Tune my voice. Clubbing is a fun activity I got into when last year, up until then the school dances were my clubs, but now that I can go out and meet new people and dance my ass off, it's definitely a fun hobby to participate in. Being creative in Film and Music. Like I mentioned, I want to be a director and you need to be creative in order to create artwork that is memorable and be loved. Music is a great way of expressing emotions and each sound can create unique songs that can match an emotion you to feel. I'm the oldest brother out of four kids and we separate nine, thirteen, and sixteen years apart. All I can say is, it's very stressful with three younger nagging children, but they know I love them enough to put up with them everyday. It's not easy being the oldest, I get three non-transferable responsibilities that have serious consequences if neglected, has to do with "abandonment" about children or "neglect" or big words like that. Those kids have shown me, GET A NANNY, kids are just too much right now.
