Melinda is not the best at finding the values in a person and needs to work on that. The important thing about values is that they are trustworthy also they will help you when you are having a hard time. They should be honest and easy to talk to. Most people usually notice looks for there first impression on people but some do have there first impression of how they act like if they are mature or not. Melinda is missing a lot of these values like when Heather was having a bad day Melinda wasn’t really listening she would just nod once in a while or says yes okay. Melinda is very personal which is okay sometimes but you have to talk to your friends because if you don’t why would they want to be your friend. Another value is that you should not use your friend like Melinda did with Heather she only was her friend so she had someone to eat lunch with and talk to so her parents wouldn’t get curious. You shouldn’t have bad values because people might just see them and not the good side of you and not want to talk to you or just talk to you to go and gossip about you too others. Values matter because it shows who you are and if you are going to be a good person or a bad. Melinda needs to work on this but she is not the only one Heather could work on this a little also and so could a lot of others.

Marthas Group
The Marthas are a good group and a bad group; they are a service club if you want to help out around your school. “She is a freshman on probation” (42). This shows the bad side of the Marthas they don’t let anyone join like they should. They also make you wear certain clothes that fit the season. “Marthas are big on helping. The name of their group came from somebody in the bible.”(43). This shows the Marthas good side they help out a lot if it is helping teachers, running a food drive, or even decorating for a holiday they will help out. They are always there for each other and are not very willing to just let anyone in there group which can be a good thing and a bad. This can be good because you don’t want someone joining the Marthas and just taking it as a joke and not really wanting to volunteer. This can be a bad thing also because someone might really want to join but they don’t let them right away and don’t treat them fairly. They are a service club so they should be nice and allow anyone in. They should change the Marthas so they could be a club where anyone could sit with if they have a fight with there friends or want to join a new group. If they are a service club they should not be sending someone on a big mission they should all help out each other so they can finish the task. The Marthas should allow anyone to come and help out even if they are not in the club.
