One day I was really disapointed because my brother shut the car door on my head so my mom had to rush me over to Allie’s house so I had to miss the begening of David’s game.

I think what was important was the fact that Carlie discovered at the end that herself, Harvey and Thomas J were not pinballs, and weren’t pushed around as she thought they were. She thinks at the end that what happened to them now and the past had happened for a reason, and which was something they coundn’t control. Meaning they can control what they decide on, but they can’t help or control what happens to them. I’m sure everyone knows how it feels that way. When you think to yourself that “hey everyone wishes that they can go back in time to fix a problem or something, but you have no control over or on that. I know I think of that once in a while!

She might be addresing that some people can’t take control of their lives but some can. Also, she might be saying that people can change when meeting other people. Like Carlie.

If ! was in Thomas J’s situation I would be sad but feel better when Mr. Mason told me that story. ^_^

One time that my life was unfair is when my mom and dad almost made me stay home because they had to go to a meeting for work but I convinced them to go late on there meeting so I can go to my Game.

I also think another idea is when Mrs.Mason siad to Carlie that she would teach her to sew.
