At Gatsby's funeral,
I was shocked to realize that not that many people showed up. I tried to contact as many people as I could, but none of them attended. It was very surprising to me because Gatsby had all those parties and none of those people were actually his
friends. They just used him. It makes me upset to see that some people truly don’t care or have the decency to show their respect. It was only me, Owl Eyes, and his dad, who attended the funeral. Then again, Gatsby did not try very hard to create long-lasting friendships. I was disappointed at the fact that not even Daisy attended the funeral. She and Tom just left town. She was so close to Gatsby; it was like she didn't care at all. With the meager attendance at his funeral, I pity Gatsby. It just proves that people can be so popular, but not have that many friends. There are only a
couple of people that really matter in life. I learned a lot of life lessons, while I was with Gatsby. He definitely shaped me into the man I am today. Tuesday, April 30, 2013

This bothered me too, i thought that all those people at my parties were my friends. But now we both know that they were just using me. we know who my true friends were and that was a small group.however i'm proud of my small group of friends, the ones that actually care about me.
