I thought that I should make it clear my stance on the whole war issue.I'm between a rock and a hard place. At the beginning, I thought I was against it wholeheartedly because I was scared. Then I saw how the coalition liberation of some Iraqis brought happiness so then I started thinking it was a good thing.
Then Kym told me that she was called the other night and that her unit was put on alert. Everyone else had been deployed and now she was either going to go to Cuba or Iraq. I gave her my cell number to give to her mother in case anything happens to her.
Then I call home to tell my parents what's going on and my mom picks up. She asks me if I went to school with any of the Lorinos. I ask why and she says that one of them is being held as a prisoner in Iraq.
Greaaaaat.
So it's odd for me. I'm neither for nor against things as they are. I am just accepting.
Le cinq de Vendredi:
1. What was your most memorable moment from the last week?Dinner with Kevin's family. It was great.
2. What one person touched your life this week?Dr. Burkey. I had a meeting with him yesterday to discuss the schedule for next year. I've been down on myself for not having too much motivation for my school work and in the past, I've thought that when I leave his room he thinks I'm psycho or in love with him. Yesterday, when giving reasons why I should take this course on Radical Evil, I asked him why he was suggesting it. Burkey says "I want him to have a class of good students."
3. How have you helped someone this week?Cathy. She and her new boy Frank broke up last night leaving subtle clues as to his true sexuality. I told her that she shouldn't stop being his friend because he could turn out to be her Adrien.
4. What one thing do you need to get done by this time next week?Countless things, not just one. But I'd like to dye my hair before the weekend's out. It's been about 4 months since I last touched it.
5. What one thing will you do over the next seven days to make your world a better place?I feel awful saying this, but I'm going to try and do whatever I can to make myself feel better about ME that way I'll stop taking it out on others.
