Dairy Entry of Mary Maloney

Finally. Finally the police left my house. I was starting to get worried, but finally they left. Why couldn't the investigations be faster? But still, I'm just glad that they police did not suspect me. After all, a woman, a pregnant woman, would not seem to be very dangerous.

I did not want to kill my husband, Patrick, I really did not. However, he forced me into doing it. He just came home, drank his whisky and suddenly announced that he wanted a divorce. How could he? How could he even suggest that, after all that I have done for him, all that I had sacrificed for him? I begged him to stay, but he just ignored me. He even challanged me to try and make him stay. Who could take all that! So, filled with rage, I just took the leg of the lamb in my hand and smashed it on his head.

Suddenly, everything became clear. For some strange reason, I did not feel guilty for killing him. Thus, I started to think of an alibi. Nobody would want themselves to be caught for such a crime. Sam the grocer was going to be my main alibi. Thus, I planned a conversation to say to him that would make him cover up for me. Before I went out to look for him, I put the lamb leg into the oven to coook. Then I talked to Sam just as planned. After that, I went back home and messed up the room, making it look like a fight had happened there. It would make my story more believable.

I was ready to call the police. When they got here, they started asking me some questions. I knew how to answer those questions, so that I will not seem guilty. Then they started looking for the murder weapon. I tried to help as little as I could. When they nearly finished investigating, I invited them to eat the leg of the lamb. After much persuasion, I finally got them to eat the murder weapon. I felt very relieved. They were never going to find out now.

My learning style

According to the questionnaire which is on the top of my post, I am most people smart, so I am able to learn better by working together with other people. Once again, according to the questionnaire, I am least music smart. That is quite true, as I do not listen much to music, and have very little interest in it. I myself feel that I learn best by learning and working together with my friends as we can do things much faster. Learning and working with friends also makes it much more interesting, thus facilitating better learning. You are also less likely to get bored when you learn and work with your friends. It also makes learning more fun. Also, as a saying goes, two heads are better than one, and the more heads, the better, so working in a group is good.

Over the past years, I find that I can learn better when working with friends. When I meet any word that I do not know the meaning to, I can ask them, instead of approaching a dictionary and flip through it, thus making it easier, and it also saves some time. I can do more work in that span of time, making learning more efficient.
