Well, I've had a horrible week.
Of course, unless you live under a rock you heard about the accident. I think part of me is still in denial. Aubree, Amber, and I went to the visitation for Courtney on Friday and her funeral yesterday. The visitation was open casket, and it looked nothing like her. Sarah said it was from all of the swelling from the head injuries.
I met Courtney in junior high, but we really became friends this year. It's just so unfair. We had Choir and gym together. The last semester of school, I pretty much told Courtney everything. She was the first to know when I was unhappy with Josh and wanted to break up. She was the first to know about Greg and the first to know when Josh and I got back together. I can still see the expression on her face when she saw me kiss Josh on the cheek. I wasn't as close to her as I wish I was. We couldn't even go to each other's grad parties because we had ours on the same day.
She made gym class so much fun. Specifically because she had a crush on Mr. K. Heh, she would always freak out when he lifted up his shirt or something. It was funny. She was always so concerned with how she looked. She would ask me every other minute if she was red from running or not. She would never believe me when I said she wasn't. She would have to ask someone else their opinion too. I don't think she realized how beautiful she really was. Just like when she dyed her hair brown. She had such pretty blonde hair!
>< Rest in peace Courtney. You will be missed.
