The Future of a Thief

In the year 3000... naw, just kidding. You know, if you look back on Liesel's life, you can see where she has had a really hard time. Plus, Death (thats right, Death) keeps insinuating that shes gonna have it worse. It may just be me, but if Death, you know, the Grim Reaper, the guy with the scythe, if he comes and tells you that its all gonna go wrong, you should listen to him. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAnyway, I think that Liesel's life is gonna be all fine and dandy, UNTIL, things start to go wrong. Like they might discover that Papa is hiding a Jew in the basement or they mght catch Liesel stealing. But, eventually she dies. I think thats something that we all know. Whether thats good or bad, I can't tell. All I know is that she's gonna have a rough time as the book progresses.

The Closet Effect

      Living in a closet is no small feat. I just wana make that clear before continuing, ok? I mean, if u lived in a closet, how hard would it be to stay sane? I know I probably would have gone crazy at some point or another. I would also be showing symptoms of EBS (Extreme Boredom Disorder) and Patrickson's Laziness Syndrome. Seriously. I mean, it's a closet. You can't get much worse than that. I think that living in a closet has made Anita a little more grateful of the space she has, but she avoided the psycological damage (i think) by writing in her diary (lucky). That diary served as a way to empty herself the way we usually do by talking to other people. I mean, I would have had thosekind of effects cuz i wouldn't have anybody to talk with.. and i believe we all know that I need to talk with someone to stay sane. And, because if I had to stay quiet all the time and stock still I would start get very lazy. And there's not all that much to do in a closet, believe it or not. Would there be other effects that maybe unforeseen?There might also be some unforeseen effects, like her avoiding closed spaces like, well, like closets. She might have trouble getting acustomed to large spaces too because of her confinement. No, I actually can't think of any... wait, yeah I think I remember reading something about a Jewish girl and a family hiding up in the second story of a house so that the Nazis would not find them and kill them. Sad story.
