Happy Birthday Mallory Pike

happy birthday mallory pike
hope things become better for you.

ok my view on mallory is this;
1. i find her quite alright in books where she doesnt spend her time whining and complaining all the time( and feeling sorry for herself)
2. i was quite a lot like mallory pike looking back
3. may i add she can get very annoying
(i mean gheesh ann, you made mallory look as if she deserves to be hated or despised.)


i mean the poor girl's been through so much that you cant help but to feel sorry for her.
for instance in her home she doesnt get much of a privacy life, she always has to spend it looking after her brothers, she sucks at sports, and her family gives her hell if she doesnt spend time with them and etc.( you get what im saying.) No private life indeed.

then mallory's dad gets fired from his job due to the company's business falling behind, and mallory's life is never the same again( and they could kiss sea city goodbye), now trading it for what used to be the happiest family, now the most miserable. Luckily the dad gets another job,
but that's only enough to support the kids and the family life. Basically mallory's life sucks.

when it comes to school though, mallory is often the target of kids's bullying and teasing, even going as far as to make mallory's life suffer. this comes to a rining point in the book kristy in charge when mallory becomes assigned to a teaching class for 8th graders and the kids give her a hard time about it. ( cause cmon, why would you want to be taught by a 6th grader?), then mallory starts having a nervous breakdown, so badly that her chalk flys out of her hand, and the kids dub her with a new name "spaz Girl", giving her a time she will never forget again.

Mallory eventually moves in the end of the series, and goes to riverbend,massachusetts to start a new life there and move on from her troubled past. she makes fast friends at her new school and also deals with a psychopathic roomate named alexis, who she almost got in trouble, but eventually ends up leaving and mallory ends up getting another roomate named jen.

mallory's love life has been pretty much like mary anne's, except that ben is from australia and has a much thicker accent than logan. and according to mal's point of view, doesnt rate on the annoyance chart( yet again mallory will do anything to protect her man and the bsc.) Mallory's and ben's romance is one like logan and mary anne's
except
1.ben doesnt try to act so controlling
2.ben is a lot more understanding
3.ben is cuter too for a boy in glasses
(he's like a young harry potter, but without the scar and change the hair red instead of jet black)
it is seen that after the whole caroling fighting incident, ben is hardly shown again.
he makes a final appearance in book 125 mary anne in the middle when it is shown that he tries reaching out to mallory, but she turns him down.
Basically their romance fizzles.

mallory's role in the bsc is to take afternoon jobs along with jessi ramsey as the junior officers of the bsc(and also the youngest). Mallory is also known for being the bsc's punching bag for when it comes to failed disasters or anything else that goes wrong. this is shown in book 5 dawn and the impossible three when dawn snaps at mallory for taking away marnie's chocolate
(even though she only did that to save marnie from having an allergic reaction to chocolate.)
then during a scene in the super special, starring the bsc, mary anne snaps at mallory for trying to take over her job.
so yeah
not only is mallory a junior officer
but she is also the black sheep, or punching bag of the group.


what i could say after all this?
i acutally like mallory but there is a couple of things mallory should work on
1. her whiningness and complainness
2.be grateful for the fact that she's not really poor or poverished cause trust me she would look even worse if she was to end up like that.

that's all
