On Friday, we worked on our own essays and Rab helped us with giving advices. I need more English sources and have to search more about law. Law... I don't have any interest in them but I think I have to write something about it to make my essay more convincing.
On Monday, we discussed OMS. Rab told us that Hemingway was a conservationist while he loved hunting. That's kind of a contradiction but someone in my discussion group said that Hemingway loved hunting only in his youth and later he became a conservationist. In the last half of the class we discussed animals and the nature. Since I was just writing a report for my Life Science class about animal testing on drugs and cosmetics, it helped me think a lot. Actually I watched Earthlings yesterday and it was very shocking. I really felt bad watching lots of animals being killed. I thought that everyone should watch them to recognize that animals feel pain as well as humans.
Today we discussed OMS again. It was really difficult for me to find Hemingway's political views because I felt that the story had nothing to do with politics. After the discussion, we did some debate on OMS. I really really enjoyed debating with Shantonu, Kana and Tomoya. We talked about whether the story is a happy ending story or a sad story. I never felt that OMS is a happy ending story but Shantonu was different. Anyway, it was very interesting to discuss that topic. Exchanging opinions is interesting and fun!
