"There are young girls, some of them only seventeen years old. You know what I mean?" I did not know what he meant. -Achor Achor and Valentino
I don't think it really relates to any of the questions. I chose it because I thought it was really funny how they're not communicating. Achor Achor is trying to give Valentino subtle hints and he's not understanding any of it. If it had to relate to one of the questions, it would probably relate to #5, but it isn't really a hardship, so I don't think that this quote is any of the questions.
I understand how Valentino feels. My friends have tried to hint stuff at me before and I haven't understood any of it. When something like that happens to you, you feel really confused and stupid, but it would probably seem funny to other people.
Has anything like this ever happened to you?
"For some time, many of us made the mistake of simply giving him money." -Valentino
I think this relates to question #5 because his friend Daniel is desperate for money since he has a gambling problem. Since they came to America, Sudanese have started forming bad habits. I think that this is because that now they have access to necessities such as food and water and so much more, some of them become vain and selfish.
I think that Daniel is really selfish. I also think that it's bad of him to leave his wife and children to go gambling. It's pretty messed up that he looks to Valentino and other people to bail him out of his problems.
Have you ever had a bad habit?
