(no subject)
i feel like talking, but i can't really think of anything to say.
the last 15 minutes of "dead man walking" affected me more than i thought it would. seeing someone mentally preparing for their scheduled death.....i admit that i cried, and once i left class i was shaking for the next 20 minutes. it would be horrible if i knew that i was going to die in a few hours, and then i had to say goodbye to everyone i cared about, and then face the people who wanted me to die, and then feel yourself dying as the drugs took over. eep, i'm shaking again just thinking about it.
i still don't really know exactly how i feel about the death penalty. i think mrs fletcher wanted this movie to help us decide what we think, but it only made me see both sides of the situation. on one hand, killing someone isn't going to make everything right again and bring back the person they killed. but on the other hand, if someone killed someone close to me, i'd probably want them to suffer like i did. gotta love moral debates. ok, no you don't.
anyhoo, it's finally nice outside. not just sunny, it's warm too! yay 70s!
still waiting for book recommendations...please/s'il te plait/por favor/bitte/i don't know any other ways to say please, but 4 languages isn't too bad, is it? so yeah, good books?
i feel like i have more to say, but i don't. do i?
