If you want to see this, make sure you have a strong stomach. Mine churns just thinking about it. It was awful; so much blood and so many intense scenes! Every scene was intense and since I get queasy when I see blood I found it hard to breathe the whole time. I closed my eyes for a lot of it so I wouldn't faint:) It was still a good movie since it showed what the 2004 tsunami was like. I can't even imagine. I'm so thankful I would have the gospel in a time like that when everything seemed hopeless and painful. Such a sad, eye-opening yet inspiring movie!
Man, the first day was amazing! I don't have class until 9:30, then I walked over (super easy, short walk) and found my modern class easily. We went over questions and syllabus today so no dancing. I really love the faculty and I'm so glad I got to go to workshops here in high school so I'm a little familiar with the program. Then I had technique 2, and we did one across the floor. The two teachers said "okay, we have some people we want to move up to Tech 3 right now...Golda..." I was so happy! Placement happens throughout the week, but I was so happy to get moved up right away! So now I'm in pointe 3 too. I feel so grateful to be able to dance 9:30 to 2:30 every.day. !!!! I didn't get into my first institute class, so I read all the emails from my missionary friends. Mondays are a whole lot better with those! :) My colloquium class was good, then I met up with my roommate who was hanging out with 2 RMs. We went to play ping pong before another Freshman...
I agree! I had to keep reminding myself that I knew they all survived! And I kept wondering why I was putting myself through this movie. But it was really amazing how they all survived and in the end, very inspiring!
