why? what the hell? who let him leave the party like that? i can think of 100 other people it could have been that would make things actually better, not worse. but it had to be him. i still think its bullshit. it shouldnt have been him.
i grew up with mason bagley. he was the first guy i could call my friend in this little swamp of a hell called orange park. he taught me drums even when we were little kids. not a year went by when we couldnt call each other friends, for our parts. we had a few scuffs and even a fist fight or two and we got our first referrals together. i respected him above most, even as my enemy for the few months that all lasted. now hes fucking gone. i saw him at school friday. we gave each other our little "nods" of acknowledgment cause we were having our own conversations with people. what the hell? i mean it was just so surprising to the world. one day he's fine. the next, he's pretty fucking far from ok.
please guys, take note of this: if you're drunk and you know you are, dont drive. please, for your sake and everyone who ever cared for you. learn something from this, guys. dont let mason's sacrifice be for nothing.
keep that smart-ass attitude we all loved so much, my old friend. i will see you again. rest in peace, mason.
