I have never been mourning over dead rock or movie starts before. Even though I liked so many of them and really enjoy their music/movie/books. I somehow didn’t relate myself anyhow and all those posts in FB made by my friends that one more great famous personality passed away due to cancer/hard stroke/overdose never touched my heart. But this week turned to be different for me. And todays post is in English may be also for the reason that I found out about him in English, fall in love with what he did, and learnt about his death…
I started to watch series Glee TV show when 3rd season already came on television. I watched couple of episodes and realized that I wanna see it all and got the other seasons to my shelf. I’m not a big fan of TV series, I rather hate them, because they hook you up, you waste your time watching it and it rarely gives you something useful or good. But that show is so much different. In every episode they were touching some very important matters like gender discrimination, first love, bulling, early pregnancy, hate, religion and they were learning to deal with it. I think this TV show is a first one nowadays which is really great for teenagers to see, they can learn a lot from it, relating to the characters. As for me, I was pretty much enjoying seeing how guys are developing, learning about life, trying to be good, and of course singing my favorite songs.
From the male actors of the show Finn Hudson was my favorite. He is kind, awkward, caring person. He can not really dance and his moves looks funny, but he is so incredibly charming and honest with what he really got inside him. After some time I stared to read in wiki biographies of the actors. I was amazed with how many characters corresponded with true life of the actors. Cory was also growing without dad like his character Finn. I was also so happy to find out that Lea and Cory are actual couple and not only on TV. Its like some fairy tale become a reality.

Last Sunday we were coming back with my boyfriend from summer cottage. I was checking my phone, reading some news. First I couldn’t believe that it was true and I felt very sad like somebody very good and important to me passed away. Of course I realized that he is just a movie star, like the others and I should be so sad. This week I came back to the empty office because everyone else is on holiday and I already came back from mine. So nobody could stop me from listening to the songs, covered by him in Glee. And I couldn’t stop crying… So weird, right? It has never happened to me before. He wasn’t my friend or a part of my family, but for some reason I loved him so much. I was feeling bad for Lea (Rachel), for his family, for his friends. I fee like somebody really good passed away.
I knew that he had problems with drugs when he was younger, and about rehab this April. But as I heard many time there are no former drug addicts, like there are no former alcoholics.. it can always come back. And still news about his death shocked me so much. Yesterday I tried to calm down myself and just try to learn something out of it, I’m tired of crying everyday about him… So I talked to my friend who lives in Moscow nowadays in skype about drugs and why people do it. I have never had any desire to try it. And what parents might do wrong if their child starts to do drugs as a teen. We found out that more people that I thought are doing drugs in our hometown Ioshkar-Ola. Luckily I studied in a very good public school and even though my parents are far from perfect, they always found time to listen to me. Same was for my friend, we studied together there and even though her parents were divorced she has never had lack of attention. So as a conclusion of our chat with her was an attention of parents to their children and the surrounding… Then we talked what we would do if we become mums some day and do we want at all to be mums..
I’m really interested to know from other people what they think about it. Why teens do drugs ? Where it goes wrong? How to avoid it? I don’t have children, but if I’d have them sometime I’d like to know what is important to do to save them from it.
