The cuddly bear within!

So if you’re a senior who is going to stop trying at all work after the APs, say “I.” I think the monster got kind of soft towards the end of the story. This blog is trying to get at the fact that there is a little monster on the outside of all of us but on the inside we all have a cuddly bear or what have you. Personally mine is a squirrel but that’s a story for another day. In Chapter 24 Walton hears a strange sound coming from his cabin on the ship, only to find the hideous monster weeping over the body of his creator, who he hated. So why now would the monster be doing this, well it’s because that was his only friend. As sad as it sounds the monster was hated by his “parent” but the monster still felt connected and therefore grieved at his passing away. So this establishes the fact that society never truly knows how a person is on the inside until it gets the chance to see that person when “the chips are down” so to say. We truly get to know a person’s characteristics when they are in a bad or just hard situation because it’s in these situations where we show our true colors. This stands true for the monster because underneath that green ugliness, he too had a cuddly bear within. Now go out and find that cuddly bear in you!

  1. I was until this scene really over the whole evil monster thing because thats all he seemed to do was kill and kill. But finally in the last moments of the book we see the monster cares a little. Well a lot about Victor.
