Journal #6

Compare and contrast yourself to either Scout or Jem at their age. Compare and contrast your summer activities, friends, relationships with your dad, siblings, and adults.

I am most like Jem Finch. Though I am a girl we have many similarities. Jem is the older sibling in the family. His younger sister looks up to him in the same way my younger sibling looks up to me. Because he is the oldest in the family he happens to mature faster. He is becoming wise, and starting to understand many things that never occurred to him before.

Jem is less fiesty then Scout. I never trouble anyone for anything and I listen and obey my parents. During tough times I stay strong and grounded, and do my best to ignore vexations that I might stumble upon. I try to hold myself together during tribulating times, but once in a while I'll break down just how Jem got upset at what Mrs. Dubose had said about Atticus. I am very much like a mockingbird.

Jem tends to take after his father. They both have a bad eye, and they both are very wise and calm. I take after my father, so people have told me. I look up to my father for everything. We both have migraines, and we both enjoy each other's company. When my dad was a kid he always wanted to travel the world. My biggest dream is to travel the world like my father. Like Jem and Scout I'll do anything to protect my family. Like Jem Finch I am a mockingbird
