so...I still cant comment.

To Maddie Field: YEAH Maddie! Apparently Cross words ARE too hard for you!

To Hannah Huls: I really like your quote (and thanks for bring the first to remember to post them)I like it because well, I dont know if anyone else feels like this but things are way more raw when your asleep, the filter is gone and all your feelings are just out there.

To Maddie Field: The 2nd quote is my favorite because it really shows his frustration with his condition.

Son of a...

So I took advice Ms. Stariha's and added a paragraph to my essay on the watering down of media. When I finished my final draft I was feeling pretty proud of my paper and was feeling the weight lift off of me until I looked at the word count. I went from 644 to 921!!! Gah!

Do we need a annotated Bibliography? I don't know and I'm getting nervous!

Friday Off

I wish we had Fridays off more often. I got SO much work done today. Having three days to do something really takes the stress off of the work.

Dos Quotes for All Y'all

"Nobody but the dead know whether all these things people talk about are worth dying for or not. And the dead can't talk."

I think this quote really wraps up the end of book one. I think it might also be foreshadowing because Joe often likens himself to the dead (and I'm aloud to say that because I haven't started book two).

"He thought why don't they take him out and shoot him while there's still something worth while in him?"

This one really captures his attitude in book one. OK I lied there's one more quote I want to share but we may have already mentioned it in class.

"Maybe nothing was real not even himself oh god and wouldn't that be wonderful."
