life is strange.... i spose it only makes sense to stick it out to the end, ya never know what's going to happen. while reading anne frank's diary i often thought about all these aspirations that she had. to be famous, to be a great writer, etc and wondered if she knew that she was going to get caught and die in the holocaust and nothing more about her future would she have given up. perhaps kill herself. because even though all of that happened she still fulfilled a lot of her aspirations after death. it is so strange how everything can work out. another thing that i wondered was; as she was being escorted out by the SS do you think she just stopped for a moment, lost all her fear, and noticed that she was in fact outside, where she had wanted to be for so long. it would not surprise me. on another subject, i have been podnering why you do not get electrocuted when you touch an electric stove. i don't believe it is because the filament is within the metal part you actually see glow because i think it gets hot way too fast to actually not have electricity running through it, so perhaps it is grounded very well. which could lead me to believe if you were perhaps standing in a puddle of water with a wet hand and touched the stove you may perhaps get electrocuted (yes this isn't realistic) but more seriously what if the grounding got messed up, one day you would grab a metal pot off the stove and the next thing you know you are in the hospital. i wonder if this actually happens.
