#6 p168-198: What is Arnold's grieving ceremony? What connection do you see between this and the cartoon on 166? (Josh)

Arnold's grieving ceremony is to basically feel angry about himself and to be angry at others. He said what he thought happened and drew cartoons to make him feel better. One cartoon is on page 166 and this is a cartoon of Jesus on water while the other normal people were standing on land laughing at him. Arnold was mad at them because he thought that it was their fault that Eugene died. He was mad at everything and was joyless. He looked back at his life and all the bad, depressing things that happened to him. The events that ruined his life. "I was so depressed that that I thought about dropping out of Reardan. I though about going back to Wellpinit. I blamed myself for all of the deaths. I had cursed my family. I had left my tribe, and had broken something inside all of us, and now I was being punished for that." (Alexie 173) This quote shows how much grieve and pain that Arnold is in. On the topic of grieve, Arnold even searches up what it means. In a cartoon it says, "grief (greef) n. When you feel so helpless and stupid that you think nothing will ever be right again, and you macaroni and cheese tastes like sawdust, and you can't jerk off because it seems like too much trouble." (Alexie 172) It seems like this definition really stuck with Arnold because he, himself did feel helpless and stupid. He also feels like everything is lost and that nothing will become right again. Arnold's grieving ceremony shows all the pain and grief that he is handling but he will come over this tragedy soon.
