Happy Easter everyone! I hope you all had lots to eat and spent time with your families.
I've decided I'm no longer going to make this journal all friends only. The very personal things will remain private but the rest will be public. I want to express my opinions to everyone and make some new friends along the way. I was gone for so long I think I've pissed off a lot of the people I have friended on here. I feel like i'm talking to myself most of the time. I want someone to see this and maybe care and respond.
I watched The Mist tonight. I had heard it was a lame movie, but I found the opposite. Although the storyline was a bit awkward and far-fetched, the characters came across as real people and did an amazing job of portraying the dire situations. It was one of the only movies where I really found myself going "God, what do we do now?" I was surprised as well by how much the last half hour of the movie really upset me emotionally. It was very dark and human. The evil that lies within humans in such dire situations.
The movie left me with the same train of thought I always get when I watch a end of the world/disaster/zombie movie; what would I do in the situation? I'd like to think I'd rise up a hero. I would hope I could keep my cool. I hope I would try to save every life when reasonably possible. I hope I would let no one take the easy way out. I hope I would fight. What about you?
If you've never watched The Mist, I would suggest taking a look at it. You might be surprised!
