Long Love

Client Holden Caulfield is leaving his school which he is adapted this relationship with his history teacher. He wants to find closure and feeling like he is leaving, considering the fact he never liked the place to begin with. Holden is concerned about his teacher Mr. Spencer who had the grippe. He goes to visit him and they have a conversation about him leaving Pency and why his grades are not where they need to be.

​I think Holden feels this way because he never go to know anybody. He thinks every ones a phony and he never shares a relationship with anyone. He views everything in a negative perspective. I think Holden is overwhelming with negativity because his attitude is always focused on the bad things. He does not really talk about his family in a good way either. I am concerned with Holden’s behavior.

​​​​​Journal Entry 2

Holden Caulfield seems to be having trouble with being social. He claims that everyone is a phony and how he does not really like them, but yet he talks to the majority of people. He seems close with his roommate and he doesn’t have a bad time with this Ackley guy. He talks about his brother and how he was devastated when he died. Maybe that could be one of the reasons Holden is troubled. He seemed to talk fairly high of his little brother and how he cared for him. He seems pretty friendly too, being the fact he let Ackley stay in his room and chat and he let Stradlater use his jacket. He also seems to know a lot about this Jane Gallagher.

​My concern in the chapter is that Holden is missing that piece of company. He seems like he enjoys when people are around him, even though he acts as if he cannot stand them. He might be in love with Jane too because as soon as Stradlater mentions her, he immediately gets excited. Holden is thoughtful in a way because he asks if Ackley wants to go out with them instead of being in his room all night. My concern here is that Holden actually has feelings, he just does not want people to think...
