Okay so I was watching his vid right, Mad World by... The chick I was just talking to a moment ago. Hang on. Bahg. My internet is slow right now so just go look here at

pb_vids and find it. Anyway, I'm watching the vid and it's awesome and groovy and sad and it has Tweener in it. And I noticed two things.

1) He's really pretty when he cries. Really. And I want to hug him. A lot. Nn. Babbeh.

2) Tweener came into prison sagging his pants half off his ass. Sagging? Started in prisons. It was a way to tell your cellie you were "ready" for him. Poor Tweener, he so drain bamaged. *Smooches her dorky white dork*

Oh right, almost forgot too. Today? I saw a bunch of people die. I don't mean like watching Law & Order, I mean I watched actually people die on film. I watched two people be executed by firing squad, one person get his head chopped off by a guillotine (It was from a distance but you could see the body roll off the... table thing), three people get hung, stills of people in an electric chair, and bits of someone being out to death by lethal injection.

This was for and in class by the way. When we get to chapter fifteen we're gonna watch someone be killed by lethal injection. And we heard a lot about the gas chamber and how it's pretty much watching someone choke to death for fifteen minutes.

I am so very against the death penalty right now. And the electric chair? Is fucking scary and there are people who have had to be electrocuted more than once because the first time didn't kill them. People's head's have caught fire and others have bled out of the mouth, eyes, ears, nose and such.
Also? It's not uncommon for someone who has been electrocuted to lose fingers or toes because of it. The electricity builds up and has nowhere else to go and either fries the nerves or completely destroys the fingers/toes.

I just felt the need to share these with you. And the fact that now I'm having horror images of Linc in the chair and him not dieing and just... *Shudder*

Geez, what class is this, Faces of Death 101?

I didn't know JennCho had a new PB video! *rushes off*

Heh it's... Corrections in the Twenty-First Century. We were learning how crimes have been punished in America over time. Apparently? Pretty much everything usd to be punishable by death. Public death noentheless.

And yes! That's her! JennCho! Gah it's so awesomely groovy and... guh.

K just watched the Mad World video. It was awesome, but I think I like "Crawling" and "Shoop" better. Maybe because I've listened to "Mad World" so many times it's lost a little of it's poignancy for me. But it was still better than 90% of the vids out there. :)

Wow. I've only seen the Mad World one and I thought that was awesome. I'm so gonna go and check out the rest of them tomorrow.

Corrections in the Twenty-First Century... are you a CRMJ major?

Yeah, I'm getting my AAS in it. I'm only in my second semester but it's groovy all ready.

Cool, so what're you planning to do with it? I think maybe you mentioned this before in another post but my memory's not so hot.

Last thought was that I was going to be a Criminal Psycholigist but ATM I'm having second thoughts revolving around my ability to pay for my psych edjucation.

So now it's kinda up-in-the-air a bit.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure if you want to work as a psychologist you have to get a doctorate, which is... a lot of time and money. :p I'm majoring in psych right now, but I'm not sure what I want to do really. I'd really like to be an editor, but I didn't figure that out til last semester, when changing my major would mean 2 more years of school. And school? Is the last thing I want to be doing at this point. I need a break. :p

Have you looked into Vocational Rehabilitation as far as paying for school? VR is paying for my undergrad tuition b/c of the stutter and ADD. I'm super lucky because I have no debt whatsoever coming out of school. Graduate school will be a different story, if I choose to go that route.

Oy, it sucks to figure out what you wanna do half-way on your way to somewhere else, huh? You could always do some small counseling with your psych degree while you space yourself from school.

Vocational Rehabilitation? What's that? When I hear the word "vocation" my first thought is Job Corps and they... I'm not doing that crap again.

Yeah, it does suck. But I'm pretty sure counseling is not my thing. I enjoy learning about psychology, the academic side of it, but the applied side isn't as interesting to me. But I wouldn't be able to do any counseling unless I had at the very least a masters degree. A Psych degree is pretty worthless in the clinical psychology field except as a foundation for a higher education.

It's a program that helps people with disabilities get employment, and that includes giving them money for college. I don't consider myself disabled, but technically I am, so if they want to give me money for it, that's fine by me. :) If you have a "disability" that may interfere with your ability to get a job (which I suppose a stutter might), you qualify.

Wow. That sucks on... a few different levels right there.

And the part that blows? Is that as far as the government's concerned I'm not disabled because I can't afford a psychiatrist to confirm my ADD and even though I have a messed up knee that prevents me from standing/walking/moving much without a big metal brace the fact that a surgery I can't get anyone to agree to would fix it means I'm A-OK.

Fucking Arizona.
