Today, a girl in my class fainted righ in the middle of the lesson. when she woke up, and we asked, she said it was probably because she was hungry and that today, they just ran out of all the food that they had and bought before the lost all their money in the stock market. and everyone in the family lost thie jobs. it was all the money whole family has. and they lost it all since the (not-so-great)depression began. I feel sorry for her, even if I'm getting tired of eating the same thing every day, atleast we have something to eat. i wish the depression would end.
