The mood of people begins to shift from lavish to drunken recklessness.
<h3>
<u>Explanation:</u></h3>
The party thrown by Gatsby is said to introduce the Jazz Age with a huge bang. People from all walks of life and classes are invited to attend the party. The party is extremely lavish as the previous ones organized by him. Making it stand out, Gatsby has a bar with free alcohol for his guests, opposing the prohibition on alcohol consumption in that era. Due to their drunkenness, people are becoming more and more wild and reckless in their activities.
This turns a lavish party into a scene of a carnival.Nick observes that the guests have a lot to say about their host but most of the talk is rumors. None of the guests knows Gatsby and hence the rumors are all types of fuzzy. One such rumor being that Gatsby murdered someone in cold blood.The two groups as described by Nick, the East Eggs and the West Eggs have come together under the same roof despite several differences.
The Englishmen attending the party seem aggressively determined towards what they want and the Americans are depicted as desperate, trying to make contacts in hopes of getting quick money.The drunken state of one guest also leads to an auto accident.

Dear Diary,
It’s March 29th, and the time is 8:11. As I woke up, my first thought was (name). We had an argument over coffee. It’s embarrassing to think about. Something that small made us get at each other’s throats. It’s been a few days, maybe even a week and we still have spoken to one another! Over coffee! Know you may be wondering what I’m talking about: First we meet at our favorite coffee shop, we find a cute little spot and sit. Next, I tell her I’ll try and order what she usually drinks. So, I come back and give her her coffee. Not even 5 minutes go by and she asks why her coffee tastes different. I tell her what I ordered: Black coffee with milk and sugar. Then she yells at me saying she’s lactose intolerant! How was I supposed to know! I mean sure, it’s my fault she had a bit of diarrhea, but she could’ve told me beforehand. Anyway, I’ve felt bad ever since and I don’t know how to make it up to her. I feel horrible.
