Default Another subtle forsehadowing

Denise is always dropping classes. Then, later, she ends up dropping out of college. You could probably tell this was coming since she was already dropping classes before she spent even two weeks in them. Remember Dr.Forster's class? She dropped it because it was an 8:00 class. Then she dropped Biology because it was too early in the morning. Then she decides to quit school altogether.

i think that is how her character was meant to be, a forgetful kind of person who would do something like that

I think that's true, but she wasn't like that in high school, so the drastic change is crazy

If you are watching the episodes tonight July 14th 2003 this thread sure does tell the truth about Denise. She dropped Hillman, dropped her record job, she dropped her pizza job and had 2 jobs after that. and now asking to go to Africa to take pictures pygmies. haha

Do you mean the one where she had "all healthy food" for Olivia's party? A healthy cake, cookies, carrot desserts, and vegetables?

that just seems to me to be her persona totally. She sort of gets swept up in the moment real fast whenever she feels intense about it. And she doesn't think about what she's doing when she feels intense about it. For example the car she wanted which asked Cliff "WHAT?" when he tried to start it, to the time when she tried to make a shirt for Theo (good intention but she didn't really think about what she would have to do to get it done).

So organic food is something she would definitely do. I could see her watching pbs because olivia was watching a kid show earlier and a special on organic food, or a special on the hazards of regular foods come on.And she gets so swept up in the info which she hears and sees on TV that she instantly decides to change what she's eating. She's just a really easily swayed person. Some people are really like that, i know some.

Ah, Denise was a loser. But it DEFINITELY made for some funny moments. Like when she would burst in with one of her brilliant ideas and Claire and Cliff would make these faces when she said something stupid. (Which was 90% of the time.)
