Title: Worst week ever
Post by: LieLowTheWantedMan on January 29, 2012, 07:18:06 PM

Well let's see. The week starts out with me meeting my friend on the bus. He says something like "Hey! Did you hear about the kid that died?" I replied "Who?" Him, "I think his name was (person's name). He died in a crash." This shocked me. He was an acquaintance of mine. Not exactly friends, but he was a decent guy. It saddened me, as he's in my grade and I've been in many of his classes.

The next day, said friend posts status saying the following: "Another car accident, up on lake shore drive, a 9 year old girl is involved".  I thought damn, that's horrible. My dad then messages me saying "Your cousins were in the accident on lakeshore drive. (name of 9-year-old female cousin) is dead. (name of 5-year-old male cousin) is in a coma and they aren't sure if he'll wake up." I was shocked. They were close cousins of mine and were way too young to go.

I went to her funeral yesterday. It was open casket, which depressed me to see. :( I heard now that my 5-year-old cousin will likely be okay, but the after-effects are unknown. I really needed to vent. So much negativity this week.

Sorry to hear about the negative stuff, try and stay positive as much as you can, it's quite easy to get "carried away" when there's bad stuff happening. :/

I came into this thread to make a joke, assuming it was just going to be a haha funny rant thread.

Now on the serious note... I can't imagine what can be going through your head in regards to this situation. It always saddens me to hear things like this. I hope you, your friends, and your family are holding together okay. Things like this always remind me how fragile and unpredictable life can be, and how every day needs to be cherished. Stay strong my friend.
