Random Thoughts IX

They don't have an excuse. They're just unprepared. They don't care that the show represents someone's hard work so they've decided to make a mess of it for their amusement. It will be a hot mess.

That's a real shame :/
I guess if they keep this up then, they won't be doing this as a job for long..

They run the theatre so they can do whatever they want. I so shouldn't have taken the job.

Well, all you can do is go out there and give it your best, and let them make fools of themselves and their business if they so desire. At least you get to leave when it's done!

I'm home and watching Glee
Still got some discomfort but will ease after a week and two

Just waiting before we go out, I'm watching the trial of that awful man who killed 77 people in Norway last year. According to BBC, the guy did not plead guilty and claimed self-defense... He was amused to see so many journalists on courts and he even smiled! What a monster... My real question is, who are the people defending this guy on court? This makes me angry.

Glad you are home and feeling fine.

I don't know how the legal system works in Norway, but I'd assume that he would be defended by some sort of "court-appointed legal defender".
They HAVE to defend him, since everybody has the right to get a lawyer who defends them.

Exam week/last week of classes, and I still don't have a fucking co-op that I'm supposed to be starting in like two weeks.

If you're a lawyer who's defending someone obviously guilty, isn't your job just to minimise the punishment they receive or something? What else would you do? I dunno how all that stuff works.... And now that i'm thinking about it, i still haven't been called for jury-duty

Wish i had taken a picture of this woman today. She was walking around the city, taking her -not dog- but LAMB for a walk. A fucking lamb...

Sounds interesting is like work placement that was required in high school? What are you studying to be?

Ooh, I haven't gotten around to check any news or such yet, but that's a surprise if he didn't plead guilty. Just a couple days ago his lawyers told the public to prepare for his statement that he was proud of what he had done, and that he was actually sorry that he didn't kill more people.
He is enjoying all the attention he is getting, it's all a part of his "plan".

This is actually quite accurate:



He thinks everyone is his puppets, and, sadly because of his rights and peoples curiosity, much is going just like he want it to.

And yeah, what Dina said. He actually didn't get the lawyer he wanted though. He wanted a lawyer that some years ago defended some men that had killed a boy because of the color of his skin. That was probably almost as big in the media as this case is.

You mean work experience in high school? This is pretty different. This is more like un-paid work where we have to do 8 hour days and directly deal with patients (which is scary), and we get graded on our performance ... Oh and i'm studying to be a registered nurse (and hopefully a nurse practitioner after that if i have the motivation to even complete the bachelors haha)
Oh dear, i really do have to study more. I'm actually dealing with real people who are affected by my actions.

What is his "plan"? And what were his reasons for doing it? I thought i heard it was some religious thing.

da fuq?

Its more a political thing, and in his mind we are at war. He thinks he is protecting norway and maybe even europe in general against islam/muslims and their taking over our society. He thinks that he in the future will be viewed as a hero, a martyr for the cause. His plan is to spread his propaganda and hope for followers. He doesnt plead guilty but admits what he has done and is more than happy to go to jail for it. And he enjoys the attention we give him, cause that was par of his plan all along. Right now he is getting jst what he wants.

Well, he's probrably not gonna get the punishment he deserves in Norway. If he likes attention so much, I think they should throw his ass in solitary confinement for the rest of his life, with no visitors allowed ever. Execution is too good for him, not they even have capital punishment in Norway, or life imprisionment for that matter. He should get consecutive life sentences to eliminate the possibility of ever being paroled.

But he'll probably end up in some comfortable prison, getting vistors all the time coming to interview him for articles and books about him. And he'll probably get out before he's an old man and never feel an ounce of remorse for the people he's killed.

I feel sick to my stomach. It's things like this that make me want to believe in Hell and that people like him will go there. And I'll just leave it at that.

I think none of the states in europe perfom capital punishments anymore, and that's a good thing imo.

If he gets out of prison, his next step will be some sort of Psychiatric facility.

He'll never be a free man again - thankfully so.

He probably will never be a free man again and there are already talks of building a psych ward for him in the prison he is in. I do believe he's been in solitary confinement since his capture. If he ever does get out noone thinks he'll live very long.

Ahh, home sweet home. I may swear by high heels, but they are surely not made for walking long distances. Yet I never learn, my poor feet!

high heels=evil

But so pretty! And they give me the little height boost I need, to not feel like a midget

I pretty much live in tennis shoes. I actually can't remember the last time I wore any kind of show with a heel involved...

Also why do certain shoes cost so much?

I will never understand fashion...

On my way to work I saw a live turtle in the middle of the road! I though it was roadkill at first, but I slowed down and got a good look at it. It's little head was poking out of it's shell and it was looking right at me. I let out a gasp and yelled "Turtle!" (and my window was down)like a little kid. I freaking love turtles, and I can't even remember the last time I saw one outside of an aquarium. I wanted to stop and move the turtle to side of the road, but I couldn't, there was no place to pull over and it was a fairly high traffic area, so I just had to keep driving. I hope the little guy is okay.

I bought a pair of Jeep J-41 shoes yesterday, for $59.99 + tax.

These (only mine are blue and gray)-
