Jesus Christ.
I was at an 8 hour community service event that BLEW.
I enjoyed delivering coats to temple but i hated the diversity workshop thing afterward. It was just so redundant.
I got a text from Rory during the last hour telling me the news that Ken had passed away earlier this morning.
My heart sank. I wanted to cry but I had to sit through this Martin Luther King workshop shit for an hour.
I got through the workshop, came back to my dorm and it all hit me.
I havent seen Ken in a long while, I had heard from his brother and people his progress and the times he was in and out of the hospital.
I never thought anything would happen like this. I never thought he would die this young.
Although Ken and I were not the best of friends, I remember all of the times we would hang out. I remember the time I met him and how friendly he was. All the LUCKY FEW shows. I remember when Rach & I went to his house, and when we all would go to the CLD, or Dunks. Or when he played with the wars end that time or two.
I remember when I called him crying from the bathroom at Target when I worked there, and how he instantly returned my call telling me he couldnt just not answer a voicemail like that.. how he thought that all of his friend's drama to me was wrong.
Ken was such an awesome guy. He seriously was such a genuine nice person, and I never had anything bad to say about him the entire time I knew him. Which is rare if you know me.
So this is my entry dedicated to him.
My heart goes out to his family and girlfriend.
Rest in Peace Ox. =[
