i got some really bad news today in fourth hour. i was watching a girl from goodrich sign to my teacher and i only understood a little bit. all i got out of it was that there was a car crash and someone flew out of the car. a little bit later, my teacher translated and told us that it was 3 girls from goodrich. 2 of which i know. the two that i know are the goodrich twins, kayla and kaitlyn O'Mara, the top 2 runners on goodrichs' cross country team. kayla was killed in the crash and her sister and the driver, another runner, is in a coma and critical condition. i was shocked. these girls have always amazed me as to how well they ran. they shared the top spot on their team and helped their team win the state finals. they were both juniors. i told the team as i saw them in school and everytime i started the story, i would tear up and bawl. it just hits so close to home because i am a twin and i know i wouldnt be able to go on without kara. they were so popular in their school, everyone knew them and they knew everybody, kinda like us. i told my coach too and she knew exactly who i was talking about. i think shes the only one that actually understands why im so upset. shes the only person that i know that has known me long enough to understand how torn apart i am about this tragedy. i barely even knew these girls, but i knew them well enough to know how infectious their personality was. i met them both at states and i felt that they were way above me because they were so good, even though i shouldnt have felt that way. i cant even imagine how this is affecting their school. the cross country team im sure is devastated. ive been upset and crying all day and i dont even know how kaitlyn is doing now, or the other girl. i am so scared for them. ive been praying to whatever all day for their families to the best of my ability. the worst part about this is that i dont have any way of contacting the school unless i have mrs bishop do it. i dont want to call the school and ask because that would be rude of me. and i dont even know how to get to goodrich high school from here.i want to go to the service to pay my respects, and i want to visit kaitlyn and the driver in the hospital, but i dont know if its my place to do that. i am so confused. i want to help, but i dont know how....
