I suck. I didn't post for TWO DAYS just because I was lazy. Heh. Sorry, guys.
Not much to say today... been really boring lately... Allyn still usual self... tried to weasel answers on the Science work out of me yesterday... I refused... makes the point total 2 - 0...
I refuse to watch the dissection of a fetal pig. I simply refuse to watch anything that did not get a chance to live be cut open and then thrown away.
I understand that when they butcher the pigs, the females are sometimes pregnant, so they take the fetal pig out and give it to science or whatever.
I completely comprehend that. But that's totally beside the point. I'm not squeemish or whatever, I just think it's too sad.
I saw it in the jar today. It looked like a sleeping, tiny little pig. Something that looked so sweet. I almost cried. I knew I couldn't watch when the time came.
I'm not overly sensitive or whatever, I'm just really...well, saddened, for lack of a better word. My friends are all, "Just watch it, it won't be that bad."
But they didn't see the poor pig in the jar.
They didn't see how, surprisingly, cute and innocent it looked.
They don't understand.
So with that, I declare that I will be stepping outside the Science room when the day comes (I'm not sure when it is xD), because of what I believe in. I may possibly be the only one, but that doesn't matter. I may possibly be called names, but I don't care. I may possibly be ridiculed all the way to college, but that's an exaggeration. Because, even though I would stop the dissection if I could, the stupid fuckin' SOLs take a precious life and tell us to chop it up because they want us to learn the anatomy of a fetal pig. WE CAN'T JUST LOOK AT A DIAGRAM. No, we have to cut it open ourselves, and I simply refuse to do that.
