Free Choice

It's 2:10 in the morning and I should be finishing homework. But tonight, I define procrastination. All I been doing for the past three hours was watching J-dramas (japanese dramas) online, which are very addicting. At first I was skeptical about watching foreign english subtitled dramas but now i'm so used to it and it doesn't even bother me. The Japanese focus more so on audience than American dramas. American dramas seem to focus more on profit. Japanese dramas are very short (usually only goes up to 10 episodes) and outstanding. American dramas seem to never end. Like the OC and One Tree Hill. Even though they ended after 5 seasons I think? I lost count.

Anyway, I took advantage of this "free choice" blog just to procrastinate more. I think im going to start some of my assignments for other classes now. Good night.

Irene didn't push Clare

I believe that Irene didn't push Clare out of the window. Clare never divorced her husband, which tells readers that perhaps Clare didn't have intentions of stealing Brian away from Irene. Also, Clare seeked friendship with Irene. If she took Brian away from her, that friendship wouldn't of worked out very well.

Clare is protrayed as a beautiful African American. That could of been a threat to Irene. But Irene did say she wanted to " “feel nothing, to think nothing; simply to believe that it was all silly invention on her part”. Clare's intentions were never confirmed. Because of that, I want to believe she's innocent since she was never proven guilty.

Sex related scandal

A sex-related scandal can ruin a woman today because many people would know her privacy and she could be humiliated. A perfect example of humiliation would be when MTV news discussed sexting. When the picture was forwarded to other students, the victim in the picture may feel ashamed and upset, especially since she has to see these students in classes. Other students may also sexually harass her. It also may be difficult for that student to focus on getting good grades because of the scandal.
