No day but today
Today was a rollercoaster of a day. It all still seems unreal.
JeToi was one of the sweetest girls you've ever met. She never had any conflict with anybody. She was a very happy and energetic person. To think that something like this could happen to one of my peers,..its unbelivable.
My heart stopped today when we were informed that "one of our own" was no longer with us. Those mere seconds before he said her name felt like a lifetime. I searched every face in the room, seeing who wasn't accounted for. I felt sick to my stomach when i heard the emotional reaction from the ones behind me: her best friends. A few sank to the ground in despair, and i began to cry. Seeing her friends in that much pain..it was unbearable. An announcement was made to the whole school and more were overcome with grief. It just showed how special of a person she was..
I learned alot today. How much i care about every single person in Band, because we're a family, no matter what happens. I couldnt even begin to imagine how i would have reacted if it was izzy or kay or tania or laura or mr. tienor or mr. jones. It just shows me how important these people are in my life and that i should make it known to them, on every occassion, how much i care. Most of all, tomorrow is not gurranteed, even for the good people in this world.
