It's just so sad....

The girl in "The Color Purple" is just abused and used so much... and she doesn't even know most of it's bad!  It's heart breaking...

But, it reminds me of  a song!  It's called "Life is but a mere supply"

Here is the link:   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBGisHQbkek

I strongly reccomend you listen to the whole song!  It's cool!

The whole song is sad.  The singer is a girl who has been abused her whole life and was forced into prostitution.  Some of the lyrics worth highlighting are...

Full of s**t
Full of dope
Full of wishing and I'd love to get in close

Full of hate (watch it)
Full of hope
Who's your daddy is he in the room?

Life is but, a mere supply
of a few good [thoughts]
then you die.


This song has been with me most of my life FYI it's in Grand theft Auto 3.  But I feel that I'm only understanding the messages as I get older.

Please listen to the whole song and comment on what it made you feel.

...it's friday (:

those of you reading the color purple..
what is the nasty women disease?..that Shug is dying from...When I first read it I thought of Aids, or some STD, because..Shug sleep around according to Mr.________'s dad? but I'm not really sure .

the peer editing activity we did today in class has already helped so much! now, i just have to make my changes so i can send a "good" rough draft to Ms. Stariha.
