Today uwp went to auschwitz concentration camp. We toured it and I was okay up until we went into a building that had items from the people in auschwitz and i saw a picture of combs that they had brougt with and I just lost it. We saw women's hair that they used to make some kind of textile. we saw suitcases. We saw dishes. We saw scrubby brushes. We saw a dolly that a little kid brought. We saw glasses. There were so many of them. We also saw compacts for like makeup and stuff. We saw cans from the poison they used in the gas chamber. The most painful one for me was seeing all the shoes. I couldnt stand there and look at them. I bawled. Then we went to the gas chamber and that wasnt as hard for me as seeing all the shoes, but I cried like a little baby when we were walking through the gas chamber. Before all that we walked through one place and I saw this quote and I believe that is 100 percent true. "The one who does not remember history is bound to live through it again." If you ever get the chance to come to auschwitz concentration camp do it, itll change your life.

I would imagine you can still hear the screams and gagging if you listen hard enough. I'm not sure I could handle it. I admire anyone that can though
one of my castmates made it into my dreams this morning on the bus.
he was laying on the ground and i walked to him and his eyes were shut, so i asked him if he was okay, and blood started coming out of him, and there was a puddle and i was standing in it, and i freaked out, and then he got up and walked away like nothing happened.
it was soo weird. -.-
sooo i wish everyone a happy belated November first. sorry i didnt wish everyone it earlier, i dont remember what we were doing three days ago, but it was a long day. anyway... this week we're in zabrze, poland. I'm hosted alone. sad day! My host brother, who i thought was my dad at first, looks a lot like Darrell's husband, David. later this week we're going to auschwitz for a tour. For those of you that dont know, auschwitz is a concentration camp in poland and up with people is going there for a regional learning day to have a tour of it. I'm kind of scared to go, but then again kind of exicted. our education manager prepped us for it today, but im still nervous. =S thats it for now. leave me some love!
