Term 3 Week 5 Learning Log

For this week, our class learned more about scene 3 of "Are You Lonesome Tonight". For this scene we go back to the Older Presley and Redhead. Older Presley was talking to himself as he was all alone. He said he got lucky for fulfilling his Mama wishes for chandeliers to be put in evry room. Elvis took his Mama down to the riverside where Jesse(twin brother)was buried with the biggest monument made of marble gold letters. He was talking to Jesse as he had no more love ones that cared about him. Jesse will always be in Elvis heart even though he was dead. His car blew up a week after tells me that Elvis does not really treasures his possession properly. The way he treats his car is exactly like how he treats his own relationships. Redhead was honestly .1million dollar questions. WHY??, HOW??, WHO?? , WOW!!!
Metaphor:comparing speed for the car and space shuttle
-Cadillac blew up a week later doing a hundred and five
-Cape Carnival(The National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA) sent out an alert.
"There was pain as Elvis took his drugs". I believed his reason for taking the drugs was not because of pain but mostly because he just wants to feed his addiction. Is it right or wrong? People who are treating are having withdrawal symptoms called cold turkey where they are to lock themselves up.
The pain of no love ones to be there for you always is really sad. Why did he joined the US army? Do you all think that he will serve his country. What a minute, lets REMEMBER something he was at that point of time a singer/performer. Maybe
Red head was at the doorway when he said he was in pain. Elvis was remembering his Mama. He did had the chance to beat his mother side for the last time or throughout. He had to perform at the US army because of commitment. He cannot be at his mother` side as a faithful son. This was the dilemma he faced during that day.

Reflection:
He was treating a lot of things in his life like trash. I said this because he did not treasure them and seem to be throwing his own happiness, love ones all away. I would say this is a waste. He did not appreciate Redhead at all even though she tried her best to help him. He even wishes her get lost, ill. She really comforted Elvis when he had a breakdown remembering about his precious Mama. He was torn between being a faithful son and a commitment to his career as a singer/performer. I honestly fell very sad for him to end up liked who was. A lot of people are still his faithful fans even after he was dead and knew what was the cause of death. El did not really believed in himself
