If I was one of the boys' I would put myself in Andy's shoes.When the crash happened the wind would of gotten knocked out of me.Then the next thing I know people are screaming and I'm took out of the car.I just see Roberts legs out the window looking red. Tyrone and B.J. are trying to get him out when the car explodes into an ball of fire.After that the guys try to keep me from getting Robert out at any cost.
I would be thinking man he was like a brother and we new each other like the back of our hands.I would be so shocked to hear and see him burning right in front of me.He's screaming your name and you can't do nothing.When you get home and fall asleep it'll run through your head a milloin times and you'll think could I have done something other than watch him die the way he had to.I would never recover mentally from that ,but physically I could after a little bit of time.It wouldn't be no different the next day because the news is going to make the guilt come right back.
journal-question two
When the news reporter said this statistic had a face.That makes you think about his or her family.It just of easily could have been you or someone else.When you think about the family think of how sad they are.Nothing is going to bring that person back.That person was special in his or her own way.There will be so little memorys for their family to remember.
journal-question three
When Andy was having people not look at him, they probably thought you could've took some responsibility.Andy probably would of thought the same thing.The kid that wrote the note probably ment Andy should have not been drinking.The first place is because it's a law.
journal-question four
When I hear about a group of teenagers in a crash it's because they were going fast and/or drinking.The reason is because they wanto to show off to friends.When you think of an old person in a crash they probably couldn't see or mistake one of the pedles.Also they could of hit the gas instead of the brake.
journal-question five
When Andy's friends didn't like kids that were smart because they were cool and it's no reason to get bad grades.Andy probably got bad grades so his friends didn't make fun of him.If Andy got good grades he could get the job he wanted.Then the guidance counceler wouldn't be so pushy as Andy says.
journal-question seven
Three things I would get rid of is fishing hooks,knives,and hot dogs.The reason I would get rid of fishing hooks is because I get them caught in my skin,and not knowing cast the pole.I would get rid of knives because I cut my finger very badly with one.I would also get rid of Hot Dogs because I have choked on them so many times, I can't count them.
