Congratulations! You’re almost done the novel! For this task, I’d like you to think back to your initial discussion about theme. What were the themes that you chose? Do you still agree with those choices? What themes would you add? Find an important passage or quote from the novel that you feel relates to 2-3 of the themes that you have chosen.
The theme we chose at the beginning of the book was Teen Angst. With Cameron going through school badly, and having a tough life at home with his family, his life was stressful, causing him to smoke and drink to de-stress. He had a lot of angst, and probably still does, considering he`s now been diagnosed with mad cow disease and is on a mission to potentially save the world. I would not change the theme and a agree with the past choices for these reasons. A quote from the novel that relates to the theme is: "The pot`s kinda lame, but I`ve got enough of a buzz going to coast through the amount of time required to drop my books off in my locker and wait for the end of school bell." With so much stress and "Teen Angst" Cam feels like he needs a buzz to get through the day.
