Oh, don't cry my baby there's blue skies before you
So, some of you may know that Robert Locke is no longer with us. I first heard over myspace. Heh heh. But I normally don't believe any of the crap I read on myspace. But yeah... He was only 18 and an awesome guy. I first met him a couple summers ago in OTP here at SCC. So, when I found out he was going to be in my Acting 2 class this year, I was thrilled. It's just neat not seeing one for a long time and then suddenly they're in your life again... OTP was the first time he had ever acted. Senior year in high school. But he obviously had a talent for it, because he was an amazing actor! He was awesome...
So, this morning in Acting class, everyone was at a lose for words. The teacher tried to offer some words of comfort, but there's really nothing one can say to vanquish the sadness. We all sat there for an hour and ten minutes... not saying anything. It was quite awkard. But what were we supposed to do? Needless to say, class was technically cancelled. It's gonna be weird thursday... Not as weird as today, but still. I was even thinking "Oh! I'll be partners with Robert next tuesday when we do our monologues! I've missed hanging out with him." .... I was surprised I didn't cry right there. I think I was still in shock. I still am in shock. He's really gone...
Then math came along and it hit me. Right in the middle of learning about "if...then" statements. I don't really remember anything from the class. I was just writing how I felt. Only way I could keep from crying was to block it all out...
So, I spent the few minutes I had between classes crying in the bathroom. I haven't cried in a long time. heh. I forgot that I could. Then I tried my best to compose myself and went along to speech class. Luckly, John DiDonna has a way of making you laugh whether you want to or not. *sigh* So, I'm still at SCC. In the library. Typing this. I don't know why. Well, I do I guess.
I really will miss him. A lot. *sigh* A lot. I really can't express that enough. He was an awesome person, who could always make you laugh. Comic genius even. I really don't know what else to say. He was... amazing.
