A lot of the TV I watched today was obviously reflecting on the tenth anniversary of 9/11, and while I could blog about it now I actually want it to be my Friday question. What do you remember from that day? What ever it may be, how do you remember September 11,2001? Also what do you think about it 10 years later?
Its weird, but on Sunday I'm going to see the last Harry Potter again (for only the second time... so annoying 7 different groups of people promised to see it with me, and they are all liars who can't keep promises. It would've meant I could have seen it 8 times, but oh no people have "lives" and other bull shit... I'm not bitter about this :P) and well I could tell all about how Harry Potter and the Holocaust have so many similarities, there's also something similar about Harry Potter and 9/11. I can't remember where I had seen it, but it was an interview with the cast saying how they had brought the movie to the U.S. right after the attacks, not to mention premiering in New York. They reflected on how Chris Columbus explained the situation in the States and... OK so I don't remember the rest... but I know I saw something about this and they mentioned the similarities. Also JK Rowling in her interview with Oprah said two things that make me think of Harry Potter, how love was what all of the victims mentioned in their final phone calls, and she also mentioned how we shouldn't teach evil to children. Anyway the similarity that I see between 9/11 and Harry Potter is simple, good conquers evil, and if those who believe in peace and love all band together anything is possible regardless of ones background. I also have to mention that when Osama Bin Laden was killed I did think that the real world Voldemort was killed, whether or not I was the only one to think that is a different story.
So that's my little random blog for today. Oh and one more thing. So I missed my first class of second year because I was in the hospital. So I start school Monday, well technically I've already started and I should probably make sure I have nothing due for Tuesday. But I am nervous. Not cause its school but because I'm going to be a cancer patient attending school and all of the new challenges I have to face with my new situation. I mean I am only taking two classes this semester, and that's because of my cancer. I'm also worried about how other students are going to react around me, up until now I've only talked to and shared my life with those I know. But starting Monday, people I barely know will only know me as the cancer kid. I dunno it kinda bugs me, especially because I'm now labeled as a Student with Disabilities, which I know there is nothing wrong with... but I hate calling my cancer a disability, I'd rather say challenge, cause that's what it really is a challenge.
OK I'm done now. My eyes are fighting to stay open.
Nighty night
