The model (post 26)
I think that shay was decribing what models look like now. SAhe was descirbing how they were to skinny. Tally thought they looked like Pretties who had to much fat sucked out. Theyw ere right about how they starved themselves to better. They also talked how the surgery was suppose to help stop this "disease".

"Peris" (post 17)
I think Peris came back so that he could find out if all the rumors were true and to encourage her to go on the journey so she can become pretty.

Ugly for Life (post 16)
"Every where she went, eyes looked away. It was the most visible she had ever felt"
It's saying that since people are noticing that she is still ugly, that they don't want to look at her, which makes her feel singled out. It actually quit ironic really.

Special Circumstances (post 15)
Tally is taken to a building with more "scary pretties". She is told it is called special circumstances. The oringinal scray pretty comes out and tells her that the doctor is ready to see her. Dr. Cable is another scary pretty. She starts questioning Tally about Shay. Then she asks flat out where she went. When Tally says she doeant know, she tells her that she can die ugly.
Operation (post 14, B)
Tally is getting ready for the operation. She is packed and ready to go when the hover car pulls up. She climbs in with as little belongings as possible. She is on her way to the Hospital in New Pretty town where everyone goes. When she gets there, they make her wait and hour. When someone finally tells her something it's, "There's something wrong with your surgery". she is scared and doesn't know what is going on when a "scary pretty" escorts her to a new hovecar.
Lat Trick (post 14, A)
"We don't have to look like everyone else, Tally, and act like everyone else. We've got a choice. We can grow up anyway we want"
This quote is saying that they don't have to turn pretty and be like everyone else. They can be their own person and have their own lives. they don't have to go through with the surgery. They can live like the Rustie's, Ugly, but smart and happy.

Fight (post 13)
Well, one fight was just a fight over a prank they were playing and it was just verbal. But he second was somewhat physical and verbal. It was about becoming pretty and both of their beliefs on it. Tally thought there was nothing wrong with it. Shay thought that it was wrong and was so against she ran away.
The Outcome was that Tally and Shay made up in the first fight, and the outcome in the second one was that they didn't want to be freinds anymore.

Waiting For David (post 12)
"That was one thing about being outside the city: It made all that nature stuff they tought us in school seemed alot more useful. She remebered now how rainwater on the mountains and fell into the ground"
The quote is saying that sometimes when you say, "When am I ever going to use this this?" it shows that sometimes that "useless" stuff you learn in school isn't really useless.

The Rusty Ruins (post11)
Shay and Tally enter the Rusty Ruins. Shay then shows tally the roller coaster. After Shay demonstrates, Talley trys it for the first time. After their ride, they talk about turning pretty. Shay decides to show Talley one more thing.
"The rusties had been stuck down in the streets like a horde of rats trapped in a burning maze" Pg.61
"Every building sported jagged spurs of metal sticking from its broken walls like bones jutting from a long dead animal"Pg.62

Rapids (post 10)
I would rather ignorant because sometimes something that could hurt me happens and i would rather stay ignorant than be hurt. After all, ignorance is bliss.
It is interesting to note that whitewater rafting was one of the earliest forms of transportation. It was not only used for carrying people but also for transferring goods from one place to another. However, it became quite popular as a form of leisure activity in the 1980s.
In 1811, the first recorded attempt to navigate the Snake River in Wyoming was planned by the Overland Astorians. While attempting to boat the stretch below Jackson Hole, the river was found to be too treacherous and it came to be called ?Mad River.?
The rubber river raft is believed to have been invented in the early 1840s. It was first made by Lt. John Fremont, who was then serving in the U.S army and Horace H. Day. They invented the rubber raft with the intention of surveying the Rocky Mountains and the Great Plains. Although the raft was invented in the mid-nineteenth century, it was not until the turn of the century that the first ever commercial whitewater trip was undertaken. At first, surplus military rafts were used as boats and it was only much later that inflatable rafts were used.
Private companies played a major role in augmenting the rafting business. In 1956, one of the members of the most affluent business families of America, John D. Rockefeller built a resort that introduced one of the first floating trips in the country. However, it only evoked a lukewarm response. Later, in the 1960s and 1970s, exclusive whitewater rafting companies were formed. These include the Becker-Cooke Expeditions, Hatch River Expeditions and Slickrock Adventures.
Rafting was first included in the Munich Olympic Games, 1972. Subsequently, it was included in the 1992 Barcelona Games and the 1996 Atlanta Games. In 1996, the Ocoee River in Tennessee Valley played host to the whitewater events of the Summer Olympic Games.

Pretty Boring (post 9)
The rusty ruins are an ancient city of people from our time and its so far in the future that its like looking back thousands of years. They are crumbling and the only thing left is the "skeleton" or the iron supports.
Peer pressure is where your Friends or people your age around you pressure you to do things you may or may not want to do. Once, my Friends were going to go outside on the golf course at a sleepover and i didn't wan tot go, but they pressured me into it. We went out on the golf course and ran around at like midnight. it was pretty fun, until the night control came out. We were so busted.

Facing the Facts.....and the Future (post 8)
"Making ourselves feel ugly is not fun"...."This whole game is just designed to make us hate ourselves." I think Shay is just angry, because she doesn't exactly believe in the Surgery and she doesn't want to grow up just yet.
"Everyone else judged everyone else based on their appearance. People who were taller got better jobs... people killed one another over stuff like having a different skin color."
I think they are talking about how it used to be different when people didn't care about the things that made you Ugly or pretty.
"Its the only way to make people equal" Talley is talking about how it would be difficult if everyone was different because then people would get made fun of and not alot of people would be pretty.

Hoverboarder in Training (post 7)
In The Fantastic Four movies, The Silver Surfer uses a hover board as his mode of transportation.
I think the new pretties don't come back to Uglyville because they are having so much fun and are so caught up in being a new pretty that they forget and start to think their better than them.
When they become pretty, they are so beautiful and perfect, and they seem to become stupid in a way.
