my parents are flying to the philippines tonight. they haven't been back in over 8 years. what a wonderful reason to be going home. i'm really sad i couldn't go. mom really would've paid another thousand dollars for me to go. they're only going for two weeks or so. they can't really afford to be there for long because of work.
my uncle passed away last saturday. head-on collision on a motorcycle. he was on his way to pick up my aunt (his sister) at the bus station. turns out, my cousin had already picked her up and they were waiting at the bus station. just as my uncle was pulling up, two kids on a motorcyle were dicking around and hit my uncle. my aunt and cousin saw everything. they called an ambulance, but it was too late.
my mom sent me a text message at 4 in the morning to tell me. i didn't see it.
i called my mom at 8. and my dad answered. i was already a mess, and i didn't need to hear my dad crying either. in all my life, i've only seen my dad cry once when his uncle died. i couldn't take it.
i was so busy that day, and i was kind of grateful for the distractions because i didn't really get to sit and let it settle. it's settled now, and it's so unfair.
what are his four kids and wife going to do? they were already having a hard time paying bills with his income, and now that they don't...
