RE: “That Good Feeling” - Deconstructed

 

Hi guys!

We had a good (or great!) lesson today… am very heartened to hear all the various input from you!

I’ve attached the composition we were discussing today here: that-good-feeling. Please continue to decontruct it :)

Some pointers may be:

1. What is the writer actually feeling?

2. What kind of a woman is the writer’s ex?

3. Why do you think things didn’t work out between them?

4. What are some of the literary devices the writer used to create the effects in the piece?

These are all guiding questions; feel free to post your thoughts, comments, opinions, and what nots here!

Have fun!

Alex

    Actually ,I think that the writer is feeling lonely when he is talking about his “good feeling” .
    I think he is lonely because ,why he have to think about the good feeling when he is happy and having a person to keep him out of lonely . I also think that he really love the girl alot ,because he could remember everything that he does for the girl . However , the girl might be independent or self-centre that led to her reject the writer propose .
    Although , the girl rejected the writer i believe that the writer still love her no matter in the past or the present =)

    woohoo!! second person to comment or rather, to give answers to this…

    i can tell that the author of this life story of this is feeling regret, sorrow, lonely again and perhaps damnation (sorry of this word is too explicit)… why do i say damnation? basically, he is damning both himself and the ex-girlfriend of his… he damns himself for being so silly in love that it totally blinded him when his ex rejected his proposal… he damns his ex because she was just always toying around with his feelings… take ine 33 for example, it quotes “no love… not in her eyes, not in her words”… he must had hated her for doing that…

    i have this feeling that the writer’s ex is a spoilt brad who had been pampered maybe in her childhood years… she is a “hard-to-impress” type of lady…

    why things didn’t work out between them? simply, that spoilt brad had being toying with the writer’s feelings all along… and the writer blinded easily, kept falling into the pit…

    the writer, in the starting of the story, used one technique called suspense… which make it quite interesting though… XD

    all i have to say abt this is until here…

    regards, rey XD
