and everyone was going to die

...and you knew you only had 31 days left to live... what would you do?

ask a group of 13-year-old korean kids to write about it...

Riding a horse with Big Bird sounds like awesome times?

I totally had a dream with you in it last night. We ran into each other on the street and you were wearing a rainbow dress.

These are so amazing.

I don't know what I would do if I only had 31 days...I think I'd probably just spend some quiet days in my childhood home with my dog and my mom and my siblings and then I would take them all to Maui (our favourite family place) and go swimming in the ocean and look at old photos and talk about how great our lives have been.

Somewhere in there I'd also kind of like to meet a wonderful and romantic man, just because...honestly...I don't really want to die without having sex again. Plus I would want to experience that butterflies-in-my-stomach, oh-my-god-I-can't-believe-this-person-exists sort of feeling one last time.

oh brenna!
i feel like i would live my life in fast forward.. wanting to have all the experiences of a full life in the short time left..
but then again, i wouldn't spend any time working...
these students are so perceptive, don't you think?

mass suicide! these kids are nuts
theres something about you korean teachers and your posting works of children...is that ethical?

[saythewordlove]

i just asked the kids if i could take pictures and show my friends and they were keen to hand them over.

do you think it is unethical?
