How I Felt When I saw Daisy Again


Wow, today was the day. I finally was able to see Daisy. I had waited so long for this moment. It was why I moved to New York, and I had planned this day since I had gotten back from the war. When I woke up, I was nervous for some reason. I am never nervous. Today was different though, everything had to be perfect. I sent gardeners to go make Nick’s little house look acceptable. I told them to cut the grass, plant flowers, and spruce the place up a bit. I don’t think it was overboard, although Nick seemed a little skeptical. As the hour arrived, I couldn’t sit still. I was not my normal self. I arrived at Nick’s and waited for Daisy to arrive. It was one minute past the time she was supposed to arrive when I started to have second thoughts. I started to feel that this was not going to work, but Nick reassured me that it was going to be alright. Then I heard the car, my heart skipped a beat. I was again as nervous as I had ever been. She walked in, and I quickly ran out into the rain. I stumbled back in, and we were both speechless. It was awkward at first. I don’t think either one of us knew what to feel or think. Then suddenly, it was as if we had never left each other. I felt as if I had finally healed the emptiness in my soul. The day went perfectly. I feel as if Daisy and I will be able to start anew, and what I’ve always wanted will come true.

Why I Changed My Name

I invented my new identity to fit the image that I wanted to portray. I grew up in North Dakota. My parents were dirt poor, however as a child, I knew that I was destined for greatness. I knew that I was not meant to be a poor farmer barely surviving in North Dakota. I was bound to be rich and well known. I realized that to do this, I had to run away. I needed to forge my own path to fulfill my destiny. Some years later, I saw a boat about to crash into the rocks on Lake Superior. I quickly rowed over and steered the vessel to safety. The owner turned out to be a very wealthy businessman. He took me under his wing and taught me how to be a gentleman and the ways of doing business. This is when I changed my name from James Gatz to Jay Gatsby. After this, I felt reborn. I felt as if I had finally begun my actual life. I knew that it would be filled with luxury, wealth, and pleasure. I had the skills that I needed and now a new name. I would no longer be known as a poor farmer from Nort...

How I Felt When Tom Found Out About Our Relationship

From the onset, I knew that one day Tom would find out about my relationship with Daisy. I knew that the man already did not like me very much, so I was concerned what he would do when he found out. In my heart, I felt that the decision should be with Daisy. However, I do not believe that he will honor that choice. That is why when I was asked to lunch at the Buchanan’s I was quite nervous but also excited to finally get the ball rolling. When I arrived, Daisy suggested that we all go into the city. I could feel Tom’s hawk-like eyes piercing into me. He was suspicious. When we arrived at the Plaza Hotel, Tom pulled me aside to confront me. This is when I broke the news to Tom. I felt free of the burden of the secret. However, I did not know how Tom would respond. As the conversation grew on Tom grew increasingly agitated and annoyed. I started to feel anxious. I could feel that Tom was about to burst out in anger. The powder keg exploded when I told Tom that Daisy was going to leave ...
