i won't post it in spoilers because they don't work for me.
so PLEASE try not to peak!!
The movie starts out as a dream. The main character, Jake Sully, says he dreams of flying. And then, suddenly, dreams end and he wakes up.
His compartment opens up and he sees himself on a ship. Doctors are floating everywhere, and he realizes he's reaching Pandora, another planet he was going to. He boarded the ship for 6 years and 9 months, something like that.
Then, he has a flash back.
He remembers seeing his brother, Tommy's dead body. Tommy's 2 bosses were saying, "We want you to fill his place. Since you two practically share the same genes. Besides, the pay is good. Very goodd.." Then, it shows Tommy's body burning up in a box.
They inboard the ship, and he listens to the rules of Pandora and sees his avatar body. Well, Tommy's avatar. It has genes from Tommy and the Na'Vi people. That avatar will soon be his, the one he lives in.
the only words to describe this entry is that i almost died.
i am not joking. i'm dead serious. and this isn't the type of 'oh, i decided to jump off my skateboard while in mid-air' type of death. this is like real death, bye-bye death. as in no longer living on earth. and i'm dead serious about this.
my mom and i were just shopping at a freakin mall. we returned a shirt to aeropostale that my brother didn't want, then were walking back, out from Dillards. and we decided to stop at Payless Shoe Source. and we were just shoe shopping when suddenly, people started screaming in the halls. they were running and yelling. and yelling "THERES A GUN!! THERE'S A GUN!!!!" And i got freaked out. And kinda ran off without my mom. and she didn't even notice that people were screaming outside. XD so i dragged her to the back of the store, into a small room. people were scared. people dialed 911. And we waited. And finally, the mall was cleared 'safe'. my mom and i left immediately.
and it's not funny. my dog was in the car.
turns out that there was a fight somewhere, either in Dillards or in the parking lot the other direction from where my mom and i were. people pulled out their guns and started shooting because they were mad. someone got hurt. on the last day of '09.
but what i think was lucky was that i wanted to go to American Eagle. Which was where the shooting was... i think. but my mom and i decided not to, because we had to walk a long way. if we went to AE, then we could've seen the shooters.
i'm pale white right now. oh god, i feel faint. i can't help but wondering if we died. i really need help now. really.
Wow, words can't even express anything I could say if I even knew WHAT to say. I want to type the right words, but I cannot, I've never dealt with anything of this kind. So I can't say I understand how you feel because I honestly can't even imagine what you must be feeling right now. If you want to talk more, I'm here to listen, I promise. And I wish I could help...
Goldy, you're so awesome. Seriously. But every time I try to talk about it, or think about it, I start to cry. I mean, it's really nothing, but it just hurts. Almost dying, I mean. And sometimes, I don't want to die. I think i'm just being selfish, but i faced a lot of days thinking about dying and don't want to die. And then i faced a situation so close to it...
Wow. That's insane. I would be crying. That is such an amaising mirical that you guys didn't go that way. All I can tell you is to thank god that it wasn't any closer. That's just... Wow.

And that's a horror all in itself. Death is such a terrifying thing. But it doesn't seem that bad sometimes. But when it gets right down to it, your head starts thinking of everything that you want to do, or could have done. And death becomes something you never want to happen. There are millions of people who don't want to die. And they never think about it, so when they become face to face, it becomes even more horrible, because it just may actually happen. You're not being selfish for not wanting to die. I promise you. No one would blame ANYONE for not wanting to die..
It happened in Dillards. There was a fight, someone pulled out a gun and shot. they tried to get away. 5 suspects police found them quickly a'cause there were off-duty police shopping at the mall. someone was shot. transported to medical center, was originally in critical damage OHMYGOD ohmygod
