The Hobbit

Bilbo Baggins ( the main character of this book) is a very nice hobbit. He has has very unique qualities, one of those unique qualities is his patience. He has a lot of patience. The reason i say that patience is unique is because some people don't have good patience. Bilbo Baggins does. In fact so far he has shown at least two scenarios were he had a lot of patience. I know that i don't have a lot of patience and to hear  about all of the things he goes through to still have patience left, i am amazed.
One reason why i think that Bilbo Baggins has patience is because fourteen people showed up at his house 2 minutes after each other."Dwalin at your service!""Balin at your service!" Kili at your service, and Fili!""At your service" Dori, Nori, Ori, Oin, and Gloin said one after another. And then there was Gandalf too with Bifur, Bofur, Bombur, and Thorin. Reading all of this made me overwhelmed so i could imagine how Bilbo Baggins felt when all of those people showed up at his house uninvited. I am not exactly fond of guest showing up out of no where so i can relate to Bilbo Baggins.
Another reason why i think that Bilbo Baggins has patience is because those people who came to his house did not only bring their selves but they also brought their appetite."A little red wine, i think for me.""And for me.""And raspberry jam and apple-tart."said Bifur."And mince-pies and cheese,"said Bofur.""And pork-pie and salad,"said Bombur."And more cakes-and ale-and coffee, if you don't mind,"called the other dwarves from the door."put on a few eggs, there's a good fellow!"Gandalf Called after Bilbo Baggins."And just bring out the cld chicken and the pickles!"Bilbo must have felt overwhelmed with all of those people telling him all these things at once. Just when people talk all at the same time my head starts spinning and i'm sure that is what happened to Bilbo Baggins, i can relate to him.
Bilbo is far too kind, a little too kind. When all those people were at his house he let everyone in and he listened when they said everything that they wanted to eat. He needs to stand up a little more for himself.
