Chp 8: The end of the drama
Coming into chp 8 I expected that Daisy and Tom continued to stay married and continue living their life full of money. I think that Daisy completely gets over Gatsby from the quote when Gatsby said," about four o'clock she came to the window and stood there for a minute and then turned out the light."(147) The event that surprised me the most was when Gatsby was in his pool and Wilson came to his house and shot him. I think that Wilson killed himself also, but i'm not really sure. I think that's crazy because that was Gatsby's first time getting in the pool that summer. "you know, old sport, i've never used that pool all summer." (153) I think that's very ironic. If the butler didn't mention anything about a pool and Gatsby didn't have a thought about going in the pool, Gatsby probably would've still been alive. He would've been somewhere in the house or trying to find Daisy somewhere. My prediction for the last chapter is that Nick is going to plan a funeral for Gatsby and Daisy will mourn over the death of Gatsby.

Good job Yemaya!I am agree with you. The part that surprised me also was when Wilson killed Gatsby in the pool. Then Wilson kill himslef...I think because after killing a person and when your wife is dead and she cheated at him, i am sure that he though that his life was misserable and that he has anything so he kill himslef.
