What I Was Thinking When I First Saw Gatsby

When I first saw Gatsby I was trying to think of what he was looking at across the bay. When I first saw him he stretched out his arms toward the dark water in a curious way. I thought it looked like he was trembling. I tried looking in the same direction as him, but all i saw was a single green light, that might have been the end of a dock. But when I looked back towards Gatsby, he was gone. This made me suspicious. I started to think of who I was living next to. Should I really be getting involved with this guy? Jordan Baker keeps telling me that I should meet him, but I don't know how I feel about him. I don't really know the type of person Gatsby may be, but I know that he's well known. He also throws some REALLY, and i mean really, big parties. I wonder what made him so special. If someone as prominent as Jordan Baker, the professional golfer, knows about the 'Great' Gatsby then I guess he's someone worth knowing. I'm going to try and figure out who this guy really is. It might not be easy, but I want to know the type of person I'm living right next to.
