Good Death

Wait, what? What did I do today? Well, there was Pizza during lunch. In Miss Nguyen's class we talked and we didn't wind up with too much homework. Apparently, the school sent out a superindendant letter, stating that Andrew Hill might be in their second year of Program Improvement if they don't make state standards in testing next year....and urging students to switch schools. It's expected that students don't do well. Isn't that sad? The ModelUN meeting was really short. I got the chance to sit through Mr. Winsatt's semi-authentic TOK class. Less than half of his students were in the classroom. They were discussing whether eunthanasia should be allowed. Personally, I heard "youth in Asia." I rambled random things. I don't think I added to the environment, but I don't mind just sitting through today. The presentation, was lackluster. I just think the presentor had other prorities on top of TOK, must be tough with time management when you're in IB. I came to realise that a legislation making suicide illegal since if the person suceeded, there would be no point. What's going to happen with the people who attempted, but failed? I can only hope that they'll get the psychological help they need. I remember back, when I saw this site advertise assistance for personal suicide. It euphemised death as a beautiful thing, and added that death of old age is horrid. Dying at the peak of their lifetime, before old age makes you shrivel up into a prune. I think not! Jack LaLanne is still fabulous. I hope I'm up and running when I reach his age, that is; if I do. I think I'm one step closing when it comes to some people liking me, and certain that don't.
