everything will work out....
dude, whoa.. Today was freakin crazy.
I can honstley say that I am happy with this semester, and I think it wont be too hard (crosses fingers). And I have classes with some FREAKING awesome people. I love it. So yeah. School actually wanst that bad. Haha, my geometry teacher looks like sean connery, and he really likes sattelite dishes.
But yeah, the whole day I was kinda dreading going to this visitation thing tonight at a freinds house, because a friend of our family died, and they had a visitation instead of a viewing. It wasn't so much realizing that he was dead, because I know he's in a better place now, but it was me being afraid to see his daughters and his wife upset. But as soonas we walked in the door, I could tell something was different then most of these types of things... Debbie(the wife)mwasnt even crying. Everyone was giving their condolences, and she was just smiling and saying that everything would work out. Man, she looked sad, but ok. And I was totally amazed. She is so strong... and then I saw her daughters, looking just the same way. They were sad, but they knew that everything was going to be ok. They never shed a tear... Ken will be missed. I know he will be. But these ceremonial things weren't very sad, they were more of a celebration of a life well lived. People weren't mourning his death, but celebrating his life.
*Thats how I want it to be when I die.*
(RIP Ken Rowley, you will be missed...)
