117-151

So for this reading i was kind of scared to see what was going to happen, because Winston is finally getting to meet Julia in a secret place, he really isn't to hesitant to go but he is still a few speculations holding him back. After they do it, i sort of got that he feels like in the dreams he was having. It was kind of funny because of the irony that Julia is the Junior Anti-Sex League adviser and then no she goes and buns Winston. It is sort of messed up that Winston likes the fact that Julia is sort of promiscuous most men don't like that fact about women.
The next thing that we read about is Julia waking up and she starts to plan the next meetings over the next few weeks. We see that Winston and Julia are in this relationship for different reasons such as that Julia likes to outwit the party and that Winston sort of is in love with this girl. He goes on to tell the story that kinda of creeps me out because he mentions that he wants to push his ex-wife off of a cliff, but his point comes across well that it would not have made a difference if she accidentally fell or if she really was murdered, there are no free trials in this government controls everything and their story would not stand up for anything.
In the last section it is hate week and all of this stuff is happening and it is like mid-summer i am assuming because it is pretty hot out it says and we learn all this stuff about Julia and how she pretty much just despises the party and all this other stuff.
I kind of thought that there were a few points that were in "How to read like a professor" one of then is the seasons there was that mentioned with the summer and also when they got done making love the birds or whatever that were flying, and there was another part in the second section that made me think of the a cigar can just be a cigar.

The reason Winston likes that Julia is promiscuous is because being promiscuous is the complete antithesis of what the party is trying to teach people. He likes it because she is rebelling against their party members and he hasn't ever had that connection with anyone before and he likes that they both want to rebel against their society.
