tell me your dreams

just finished a book by sidney sheldon. he's really a genius, a superb writer and a colorful imagination. i've always loved fiction. some people like non-fiction but for me fiction books are great companions and one way of escaping reality for just a minute and use the imagination for a while. i don't care about facts anyway, i don't care if the events in the books i've read didn't actually happen. what i care about is that i enjoy them and although i believe that the end does not justify the means, i see this case as an exemption.
the book is actually about a person who has multiple personality disorder. she brutally killed five men but did not have any knowledge of the killings because her alter (her other personality)did it. there are actually two other persons living inside her. it must be very painful to know something like that. anyways, the police, the FBI and all the other authorities were able to trace the killer, in her person, and she was tried. the trial was highly publicized and almost all of the people (in the whole world probably) believe her to be guilty of the bloody murders. she was tried, her lawyer had a hard time but in the end, eventhough the jury has made the decision that she is guilty, the judge dismissed the case in her favor because the judge saw evidence that she really has alters. she had therapy and after a few years she got better. the doctors think that she is cured but i don't know, sidney sheldon gave me a hanging end there. i think her alter took over her again in the end. oh well. so that was it.
it is amazing how we sometimes cannot control ourselves. the multiple personality disorder thing, it's creepy just to even think about it. imagine one or more people living inside you and you don't even know who they are and yet they are you. it's confusing. oh well.
i went to the shore this afternoon after i got home from school. i wanted to take a picture of the beach and stuff, i want to enter this nature photography contest. well i know that i don't have a chance against all the other probably professionals with their high quality cameras but hey i want to take a "shot" at it. at least i tried and who knows i might win. the prize though isn't much but it doesn't matter to me anyway.
so anything else i did today? walked in the rain, yep i almost forgot..with kaycee and jopet. i think i'm gonna have a fever. when i say something is going to happen, it usually doesn't happen so i probably will be just fine.
and oh tomorrow, i'll go watch a film..in cebuano..i'm sure i'll love it..
