LOA -- Real Life

I'm going to be gone awhile, probably at least a week or two. One of my closest friends died tonight in a freak drowning. He was sixteen, and a very dear friend of mine, like best friend. We were almost more than friends. It's just hard, knowing I'm never going to see him again.

Real life definetely needs to come first right now. I can't function more than 5 minutes without bawling. I'm not sure how I'm going to do on the first day of school or the the wake & funeral.

Update 10/5/05
If it was at possible, things went from bad to worse. I found out two weeks after Andrew's death, that my mom's dad (papa) is now dying of cancer and possibly has to January to live.

Oh a lighter note, I got my driver's license. Very happy about that.

I'm going to be in and out like I have been for the past month. I'm here, but I'm not going to be very active. Just thought I'd update so everybody would know I'm still alive.

Wow. That sucks. I'm very sorry!! *HUGS* That kind of thing just... is very hard to take.

But you remember the good things, the best things, and he's going to live on. He obviously touched you deeply. That kind of thing is worth remembering.

Hon, you take all the time you need. Don't limit yourself to a few weeks. The death of anyone close to you is a very painful thing and it needs time to settle. You know we're always here to listen too.

-hugs- Take all the time you need. Coping with the death of someone you love always comes first, even if it's one of the hardest things to do. And we're here if you want to talk.

Thank you all for your support..if you want to see a picture of Andrew, you can look at my myspace or xanga journal..I've posted pictures on both of them. It's hard right now..even 24 hours I'm still in shock. I went and saw his parents today.

Oh my god... That's got to be hard. I'd hug you and let you cry and feed you chocolate chip cookies if I could.

Life is so fleeting, you know? It seems so unfair that anyone at all should be taken away from you because of something so sudden. This is going to sound odd, but I just got all depressed about this, and I don't know you at all, and him even less, and yet I feel this sense of loss... I have no idea why. Great, now I'm crying... If it helps any, someone you've never met is crying for Andrew.

Well- We understand, and although you will be missed, take as much time as you want or feel you need.
