” I thought the American Dream was portrayed significantly to Gatsby’s little day planner that showed his goals. A significant part of the American Dream is independency and being able to”pull yourself up by your own bootstrap.” THis is exactly what Gatsby does. It shows his short term goals to make himself a better person and that is a very important part of the American Dream is being able to improve one’s self.

2.) Character Development: Nick grows up a tremendous amount in this chapter. He ties off all of Gatsby’s affair and is pretty much the only person ther by Gatsby’s side through his death. He fixes everything and leaves the best memory of Gatsby as possible. At the end of the chapter he moves away and moves on will his life.

3.) Color: Green is really significant in the chapter for example, “green light at the end of Daisy’s dock”, “a fresh, green breast of the new world”, and “long green tickets” Green symbolizes Gatsby’s goals throughout the book. For example, Gatsby wanted money, this was a huge goal of his and not to mention the green light at the end of Daisy’s dock for Gatsby’s biggest dream.
