You know I've come too far and I don't want to fail...

So here I am, nestled into my computer lab chair for the long haul. I have to rewrite my really crummy lab report, and it is definitely going to require several more hours of work. spew.
But what makes it so much worse is the death of the family member of a good friend of mine, with me sitting here confused about how to help. Whenever anyone dies, I start to think about the many, many people I have know who died and all of the funerals I have been to, which is depressing in itself. But what do you do when your friend only tells you two days after it happened and then refuses to discuss it? I can tell she is really broken up about it but is covering it up... and since she has to leave tomorrow afternoon for the funeral, she has to get all of her work done for her Monday and Tuesday classes by tomorrow. So she is stressed, she is sad, and I have no clue how to reach out. I am afraid that she would slug me if I tried to hug her again- she hates hugs and mushy emotions of all kinds. Well, I told her that I am here if she needs to talk, so that is probably the most I can do for now.
oy, oy, oy, only two days till break...
