| Through all this chaos the last few days I realized alot of things.
First of all my sympathy to all the family and friends of the victim. Those that died or injured and their family are in my prayer. It is a horrible thing that happen. We rmember.
What I realized is that the peoples with whom I sympathize with the most is the parent of the shooter. I believe they are the most hurt out of all this. Not only do they have to deal with the loss of their son but also the loss of other's son and daughter.
As parent, they would know how other victim's parent would feel to loose someone they lost. As parent of the killer, the guilt they must have felt that their own son had caused all this pain. I ponder the pain they must be feeling. "What did we do wrong?" They might ask themself.
When I read my fellow bloggers talking about how the asian parent's pressure might have caused all this, it really sadden me. When I first heard that he was asian, sadly the first thought that came to my mind of why he would do that was also the same. I thought of parental pressure. But as I begin to think about it more, it's not something to blame. I know for a fact that pressure like that do exist and there are
negative consequences that result from it. There are also positive that
come from those kind of pressure.
Let's put all the race, color, height, weight, nationalities, views, etc. aside I take this as a case by case basis that happen because of his individuality and not because of his origin. To think any other way would only add to the many negative stereotype that already exist.
My prayer to all the dead, including the killer. It would be hard to pray for his forgiveness so that he might go to heaven.
But how can we call ourself children of God if we do not want all our fellow brother and sisters to go to heaven.
I wonder if someone close to me was hurt, would I still feel the same?
To those who uses this situation as a springboard for prejudice, I don;t even want to start on that.
So many more to say but so hard to put into words.

| I am a looser. I should start thinking more for myself. Instead of thinking too much for others. I am falling behind. I'm already behind. There's such thing as being nice and caring. But leaving my well-being out of it is not healthy for me.
I gotta stop
Stop Tinman
Think of yourself.

| So I had a little break today from school work. I decided to continue with the room.
My lamp desk needed some life so I decided to do a flower arrangement for it.
Everyone go to AC MOORE. There are some good stuff there this week.
Romanish Pot: $4.00 Yellow Flower: $2.00 Extra plants: Homegrown
So the total is not that much and it gave me some creativity to do my own arrangement instead of buying an already made one.

Excuse the photo but the only thing I have is a webcam and it;s not very clear.

I think it turned out pretty well. The yellow really gave some life against my blue wall doesn;t it? And also I added a touch of white to remind me that it's still winter. :)
Now all I need is a lamp on my lamp table. I already have something in mind.
