Heather Lynn Building up layers

We talked about in class how many of these glaciers that you can see are only so big because they have grown over time. The way they do this is because the ice would melt in the summer and run down the mountain and then in the winter it would snow and freeze on top of that creating new layers every year. The building up of layers reminds me of how much stress people have in their lives, especially us college kids at CNU right now. We are all stressed because we are having to work on papers and other work and then exam week is right afterwards. I dont think it is good that we keep doing this to ourselves. Think of a time when you were really stressed because things kept building up more and more and you just got to the point where you were so stressed out you just couldnt take it anymore. i think this is how the gunman from the VT shootings felt before he killed all of those people. He was mentally ill and thought that everyone was out to get him. He became extremely paranoid and finally just thought i know how to make it go away and then he went and did what he did. Building up layers can be bad because one day it just going to burst.
