Chancellor Blog # 1

In pages, 1-29, Tayo doesn't seem to really have purpose and seems to just be  lost to me.  Tayo seem's to just be lost in the world, because of how he's been treated, because of his race.  To me he has kind of given up on life.  In this section it's also hard to tell the present from the past though, which made it really confusing and left with me with a lot of questions when I had read it.  The main question I had is what is actually present, what's the past, and how do we tell the difference.  "'It was too bad about dog and those sheep,' Tayo said.  But Harley laughed; he shook his had and laughed very loudly.  'They weren't worth anything anyway.  So skinny and tough the coyotes had to kill half o them just to make one meal.'  He laughed again.  Tayo felt something stir along spine; there was something in Harley's laugh he had never heard before.  Somehow Harley didn't seem to feel anything at all and he masked it with smart talk and laughter." This was kind of a long quote, but I picked it because it shows the change in Harley, who is one of Tayo's friends.  I think this is where Tayo realizes Harley is changing, or has already changed.
