Abandoned

1. Unhospitable- She doesnt like to associate with people. Shes not that friendly with people.

2. Awkward- She doesnt really know how to hold conversations with people. She doesnt do well in social gatherings.

3. Prudish- She doesnt like to be rebelious. She doesnt like things that are against her morals.

4. Shy- She is quiet. She doesnt like people to hear her opinions.

5. Abandoned- Her old friends dont want to be her friend anyomr because of a situation that had happened that really messed up Melinda already. She feels alone because her friends ditched her.

   I think abandoned is a good word to describe her because she doesnt have many people to help her out. Since her friends ditched her she can’t do things like sit with people at lunch. “I ditched my tray and bolt for the door” page 8. That is a good example because it shows that she had know one to run too when that embarrassing incident happened.

  I think shy is also a good word to describe her. She doesnt want people to hear her opinions or much that she has to say. She wants to be alone more and not comment on what people say about her. “She turns her back to me and laughs with her friends.” page 5. That is a good example because she could say something like to stop laughing at her but instead she keeps her mouth shut and doesnt comment on it.
