In, True Legend, I respect Drew’s friend, Lee. Lee is a very loyal character in the book especially to Drew. Lee was looking for Drew in the school. Instinctively, Lee had thought to look at the basketball courts, knowing Drew’s obsession with basketball. Lee found Drew, but he wasn’t playing basketball, he was watching the girl’s basketball team play. Lee thought that Drew would be embarrassed if he brought it up in front of him, so he didn’t. I respect that in a person, like Lee, because it shows that they have empathy for you and care. Having a friend that respects certain interests is the type of friend to have. Me and my closest friends are similar to Lee. One of friends didn’t get into honors math, but all of us did. Even though we couldn’t …show more content…

Without the sport, Drew wouldn’t have many supporters in his life except for maybe a few friends, but his mom for sure. I find that Drew doesn’t give his mom credit nearly enough than he should. I don’t know if this is because most of the moments that are in the book with him and his mom are very short.

I come to this understanding because of my own life reflects on a situation very similar to Drew’s. Back to when my dad had played soccer in college, he was number 2 in the region of New England. He had many professional clubs lined up to take him after he finished college in his senior year, or possibly earlier if they could persuade him to. At this time my dad wasn’t thinking so much about soccer, but more about his future. This is the complete opposite of Drew. My dad was worried that if he joined a professional club after college, all he would do is travel and play sports for most of his young to middle-aged life, because of his deep love for the sport. His mind had took him on the strong option to quit the sport and move onto possibly having a family with the girlfriend he had, which is now my mom. Obviously my dad chose to leave the sport, but it wasn’t very easy for him. I’m not

The Resurrection Of Romanticism In Poe's The Masque Of Red Death
