Reflective blog for chapters 14-17

In chapters 14- 17 it made me sort of sad because all of the misfortunes and the the depressing events that took place. In the beginning it was somewhat alright but you could tell some bad things were about to happen. My dislike for Fernanda constantly began to grow because of the way she CONSTANTLY began to nag. She should just leave because the house isn't even hers and her husband doesn't even stay there much. I think if she was not so stuck up and rude then Aureliano Segundo would actually like her. I thought it was cute how Meme liked a boy. I was so mad when Fernanda made someone shoot him. i am still trying to figure out what the yellow butterflies stand for but i am hoping to figure that out. Amaranta dies...that's so sad, i guess most people would be happy because she was so bitter but i kind of liked her. I mean she had a broken heart and she was the only girl in the family until Rebeca came..and then her parents showed more love to Rebeca than her, OFCOURSE she is going to hate Rebeca. If i knew that i was going to die after i finished sewing something..i would take a long time just like she did. I guess theres a lot of forshadowing in these four chapters. the number three constantly shows up over and over again and i always think of when jesus rose from the dead three days after he was put on the cross. I would hate if it rained for FOUR years..i mean it would be so depressing and i guess thats what it symbolizes. I always wondered why they always brought up the smell of mud in the previous chapters and i think that it might have been a forshadow of the rain to come. Everyone always denies or does not tell anyone when they are hurt or dying ..they have issues..i would tell someone so i could live. I feel bad for Ursula because the kids always play with her and then she dies. a lot of people just randomly die in the end of these chapters i mean they have no story of how it happened. JAS just dies in the room and Rebeca dies in her home then AS dies and also Ursula. oh my i hate those stupid people who killed those 3,000 or so people, and no body even remembers they are so dumb. I was happy that JAS survived that but still theres no point in surviving when no one believes your story! When the gypsies came back i was like ok this is definitely repeating itself because they even bring the magnets back. When they mixed up Jose and Aureliano Segundo's coffins i thought about when they were young and people would mix them up because they changed clothes. They forshadowed the end of Macondo in these chapters so i was sad but i already knew that, but anyway theres no one really important thats alive anymore so i dont really care if it is destroyed. the only person alive that i like now is Santa Sofia
