Girls in Pants _The Third Summer of the Sisterhood_ Ann Brashares (p.7 - p.21)

The graduated day is a great day to students, so every student always wants to take some memory picture in this day to keep their memory with their friends and their school. Of course, our four girls had some pictures together and a whole picture with their family. After that when the girls were sitting together to make an itinerary for their magic jeans, Tibby was in thinking. She had seen everything was changed into their friends because she likes to see everything in the backward rather than forward. Skip her thinking; she came back with their itinerary for the jeans. Carmen was holding the jeans, Lena is lighting the candles, Bee is fussing with the dimmer switches near the door. They were worried to say good bye to Bee but Carmen decided to save that for the beach at the end of the summer. It is a great deal. They promised each other that it would be their weekend and it just have the four of them and nobody else. That time is so important with them because they all had had different amount to lose: Bee would be in her lonely house and had nothing; Carmen would say good bye her mom; Tibby feared leaving the familiarity of her chaos and Lena flipped and flopped…The thing they feared equally and powerfully was saying good bye to one other. After they made the jeans’s itinerary and reviewed the rules, they said it together:

“To honor the Pants and the Sisterhood

And this moment and this summer and the rest of our lives

Together and apart”

In that time, all of the girls were crying and especially Tibby was crying when they said “the rest of our lives” because of that time, and she knew in her heart, they were already on it.

That night Tibby had a nightmare about her crazy great-grandma Felicia. It was a bad dream. After Tibby awoke, Brian invited her to go to senior party that night. Tibby felt that invite is so ridiculous, but she wouldn’t hurt his feeling and she said “ok”. They was sitting and looked at the other's eyes...atually, Brian was so happy.

One day in the early spring, Lena was staying home, she watched a young woman on a day- time talk show who'd written a book about being adopted. This woman had never met her birth mother and she spent her whole life to hoping, wishing and waiting her mother would find her. She had never left from her first foster family's house because she doesn't want to take a long trips. She just used a phone number. Since then, Lena had thought about this woman many times and this woman reminded Lena of herself. She want to leave home, she had a good university ,but she didn't have enough courage to leave the place where Kostos could find her. She love him so much. While Lena was thinking about Kostos, the phone rang. It is Carmen. Carmen called to reminded Lena about the senior party. Actually, Lena didn't want to go there. She didn't know which dress she can choose because everything is had worn with Kostos and filled with memories. In her mind, everything always about Kostos. Kostos is everything with Lena.

After i read it, i had something to remember. It is about my friend and my first love. Before I went here, I had had to say good-bye to my best friends. I love them and we were belong together a long times. Actually, when you have your friends around you, you can't feel lonely and know what about amity's value; but when you are alone, you will know what about that. Lena's feeling about Kostos that reminded me about my first love. Actually that relation is kind of childish but we have had a good times together. In that time in my mind, everything always was about him and I didn't want to lose him. After we broke up, I still miss him when i feel sad and see our memories's places again. While I have a new boyfriend , sometime i still miss him. I know it isn't fair with my boyfriend; but when my boyfriend treated me bad, i miss my first love because he has never made me be sad...we just broke up because of my mother....
