Book Title: Memoirs of a Geisha
Pages Since Last Week: 762
Pages Since Semester: 890
Weekly Summary: Sayuri is now attending Geisha school, where she will learn all of the ways on how to act like one, tea ceremonies dance, singing, and shamisen. Sayuri was framed by Hatsumono evil threats.
Weekly Thoughts: It would defiantly suck if you were to be charged guilty and be of fault for something that you did not do. These occurrences not only happen with such fictional stories, like "Memories of a Geisha," but also to real people. Like, when Dateline has their special viewing of the court and judge and subject, I would sometimes see subjects being charged even if they were a non-participant in the murder case. This happens because even though the person may have not been involved with the actual hands on murdering, the person knowing about the situation should have informed the police or authorities to ensure safety for the victims. You can never be too careful in life. Then again, you can be too much. You can always try to rid yourself of dangerous situations and surroundings, but sometimes these "bad people" or unlucky situations just happen. It is always best to be prepared if such situations occur.

I agree that we should all be prepared for the things that could happen and at the same time i know that we cant avoid every bad thing that is going to happen to us. The best way to deal with somthing like that is to just get through it, and by doing so we beocme stronger. Dealing with problems is just another part of life that we all have to go through sooner or later.

I totally hate the idea of "guilty by association". Just by being at the wrong place at the wrong time does not justify one being persecuted. OBJECTION, dammit! Remember, that "s*** happens". You can't always control what is going around you. So yes... you do have to be prepared for these unexpected situations. I agree with you. *high five*
