Entry 1 : Looking for Alaska

  The three main characters in my book are Miles, Chip, and Alaska. Miles and Chip both have nicknames, Miles is known as Pudge and Chip is known as the Colonel. The reason they call Miles Pudge is because he’s skinny…doesn’t make sense, it was given to him by Chip. The 3 friends met at a Boarding  School in Alabama called Culver Creek. Miles’ father attended and he liked the idea of Miles following in his footsteps. Culver Creek is 15 miles south of Birmingham, Alabama its hot sunny and humid. The Dorm room was a box with cinder block walls coated with layers of white paint ,green and white checkered linoleum floor, a bunk bed, a desk, a dresser, and book shelves that were attached  to the walls and not to mention no air conditioning.

   This would be a terrible place to live. The campus had 6 one story buildings arranged in a hexagram around a large circle of grass. The conflict that the 3 friends had was trusting each other. There are 2 groups of people that attend the Boarding school, the regular boarders who stay they there everyday except holidays and summers, and the weekday warriors who are all the rich kids who go back to their mansions in Birmingham every weekend… those are the cool kids, and the regulars don’t like them this is another conflict in the book.
