I just read the news, I suppose a trip to Bali would be out of the question now. I live in a little bubble in Japan, totally protected from the outside evil world. I hadn't heard about any of the terrorist attacks lately, or the sniper in DC. I was happily innocent. Some friends and I had even been talking about a trip to Malaysia. I suppose that would be a bad idea now too. I hate all of this violence. Reading the news online this morning was such a bad idea. It just reminded me that the world is not as happy and peaceful as my world in Japan is. Some of the other students just don't ever read the news because they don't want to know.
