Reading Pages 129-154
In this nights reading, I found two things very interesting. The amount of detail Cullen used when talking about Eric's fantasies and dreams as well as the details about how Dave died. Eric was dreaming about how everyone on the planet could just go away, and he could be alone with just a few people of his choosing. I thought it was interesting how Eric was saying that he gets sad when a dog is killed or dies, but how isn't he depressed when HE's killing people? "I just wish I could DO this instead of just DREAM about it" Eric said. If this was said to other people, this should definitely signal that something's wrong with Eric. I also thought it was interesting how Dylan was half Jewish but was also anti-Semitic. When Cullen went into detail about how Dave was dying, my mood started to change. Things started to get depressing, and someone who was trying to help others out, actually died. Two students, Aaron and Kevin, who happen to be eagle scouts, tried to help Dave by keeping him awake by asking him questions about his family and his job. It's so sad to hear that Dave didn't live through this. "Tell my girls I love them." Dave said. If you were Dave's children, how would you respond to Dave's death knowing that he could have lived?
