I guess nothing really came of it but it was still nerve wracking.
Well, the way I deal with stuff is to write about it, and this is what came of it. I kept thinking that before the Columbine Massacre I doubt this would have been handled the same way, and now I think it changed my generation for the better. Or at least I hope it did.
