The movie was interesting it showed the word "MONSTER" on the guys forehead, it said that they dont want to be there and being there makes you feel scared.
i think its an intresting and a point of view of somebudy that has had time to think about the situation that they got they got in to
I thought it was kind of scary because it had words like 'criminal' and other words on a guy's forehead. I thought it was a good video because it was really interesting to watch and it grabbed my attention.
i feel kinda bad for some of those people because one of those kids said he was 13 and he didnt care about stuff and that he would drink. its sad how some people just throw away their lives like that.
I thought that was very crazy. He went to school just to do drugs. Drugs are bad and they lead to no where.

also if your in jail, or juvanal hall it might change what other people think about you. espeshaly if you are young. so i think that it is better to avoid that kind of life. also, jail/jovanal hall is tough. some people might have a realy hard time in there. its scary how if you arnt strong enough, you will have an even harder time.
This vidoe was intersting i wish i could see more of it.When people get into a situation and get in troble there point of view changes in jail.When that person had all that stuff on his for head that was weird.I liked the vidoe.

This really opened my eyes to how many people do drugs. I thought it was bad that this kid was wasting his life doing drugs. I have it easy compared to him because I don't do drugs and I want to graduate high school. He was being interviewed by somebody at what looks like to be a school. It makes me wonder how many students do drugs in school. I think Mrs. Kromer showed us this video to show us that doing drugs won't get us anywhere in life. She also probably wanted to show us how bad drugs are so that we won't do them and that we will do our best in school. It was a very eye-opening experience to watch that video.
That was interesting. I think that it was clear and powerful message. I was a little confused because the voice the background sounded female but content of what the voice said suggested that it a boy. Due to the content of the video I am willing to bet that we will be reading monster. I think that I will actually be able somewhat like reading monster. It would appear that the inmates wear youthful when they violated the law. To me it looks like the people at least somewhat regretted their bad decisions.
SamC I thought the movie was a good movie. It reminded me of a movie called "Blow". The movie "Blow" was drugs and people going to jail for it. The movie that I just whatched made me feel sad because why would people want to sell drugs and then go to jail for it. Now some of people are in jail for along time. In the video some people got interview on like how they got money. why they did it. what they would do with the mony, things like that.
This video seemed very interesting to the point that I got hooked to the storyline. This story was about this lady in prison for dealing with drugs. She has to escape her mistakes. Now that I saw this video, I want to read the book: The Monster. For many people that I saw in this video, some seemed to be very nasty. When it comes to knowing what the story is all about, you must see the things that describe the story. With the knowledge I have right now, I can see that the lady’s life in the story is miserable. The one question I have right now is: How did she get caught? Without a doubt my teacher will tell me what happens in this story.
I think that this quote is about paranoia and isolation. I thiink that the being scared all the time is paranoia striking deep. And you feel so isolated that you think your aloan when your not.
To describe the being alone part i'd have to say it's like being in a crowd of people you don't know. I think being scared all the time is like when you don't know what's going to happen next and you just assume the worst.
hi
I DONT REALLY UNDERSTAND THE QUOTE BUT I THINK IT SAYING THAT YOU MAY BE SCARED AND FEEL ALONE BUT YOU ARE NOT ALONE, PEOPLE ARE AROUND YOU ALL THE TIME.
