The Catcher in the rye-Holden

Holden is in a really rough time of his life. He has failed out of his 4Th school and he is starting to realize he does not want to keep failing at everything he does. He is always thinking about Allie and that could be making his life a little harder on him.
All he wants is to have a close friend and somebody to talk to. Its hard for him to find friends because he thinks everyone is phony. He gets so dispirit he gets a prostitute to talk to. This shows us that he is a really lonely kid. He just wants someone he can talk to. He is also a really shallow kid and judges everyone off the first thinks he sees or thinks of them. I think that he is finally starting to realize that he is not living the right way and is going to change his ways and be a more open person. He even goes and talks to nuns. He probably feels like they are not phones because the are nuns and he thinks that makes them the best people. Which is not always true. Then when he goes to the park to see if he can find sister he gets really sad. This made me think that he really just misses his family and wants to be back close to them. In the next chapters i think he will try and get closer to his family and work more on his life.
