Susie And Rasheed: Character Analysis
In “A Strange Mix,” Susie and Rasheed shared some similarities however, there were many differences as well. The two lab partners were alike when they had work and what they wanted to do in the future. Susie and Rasheed were both different when it came to their personalities and their outlook towards the assignment.
For example, Susie and Rasheed were both hard workers. When they had the assignment they both did work and equally contributed. This is evident when Susie is dissecting the frog, and Rasheed is checking the parts off. In line 27 the text states, “Susie was supposed to remove the frog’s organs with tweezer, while Rasheed checked each off the list.” They both were equally contributing and ended up finishing second. Susie and Rasheed

    Krakauer wrote that Chris McCandless was, "green, and he overestimated his resilience, but was sufficiently skilled to last for sixteen weeks on a little more than his wits and ten pounds of rice"(Krakauer 182). In this quote it seems that Krakauer thought that McCandless was well equipped with his skills, so that made moderately prepared to survive in any situation. I feel that McCandless was rather prepared, yet again he never could have been fully prepared for the unexpected. My opinion is that McCandless was vaguely aware of the struggles that he would encounter in the Alaskan wilderness such as his epiphany that "happiness is only real when shared" was realized when his body was dying of starvation. I believed that he found what he was…

    This quote is about Susanna Kaysen finally reading a book about her given diagnosis. I do believe she was given an accurate diagnosis and that it was necessary for her to spend some time in the mental hospital because she did try to kill herself even though she never admitted it. I disliked the fact that Kaysen had to be in the hospital for almost two years for her to actually try to get better. Instead of arguing and being upset about being in the hospital she should have gotten over it and started putting an effort to get herself out of there. In my opinion I don’t think Kaysen was in dire need to go to a mental hospital. Kaysen did take fifty aspirins, but I don’t believe she was intending to kill herself. She only took the aspirins because…
