Good evening, children

Nov 20, 2007 22:19

Hello there, children. Hideo here, with an update. Yes, a real update. No, really. I'm actually updating this journal, and you will actually get some real insight as to what's been going on in my life as of late. So, get yourself a drink, and park in yourself in your chair, and get ready for some good ol'...depressing B.S.

Well, let's get right into it: a really good friend of mine that I've known since the second grade died in a car crash last month. A week later, my cousin, who was her boyfriend of four years, killed himself in his bedroom. His little brother found his body, and he's been messed up ever since.

He can't stand to hear his brother's name, or look at his picture, because he'll just break down into tears. He lives with me now, and we're both doing a lot better than before. He's actually talking again, and I've stopped thinking about my cousin and my friend every minute of every day.

If you've tried to call me, I apologize. When I heard the news, I went psycho and tossed my cellphone into the wall. It was my first reaction since my cousin told me what had happened on the phone. I don't know when I'm going to buy another phone, because I'm not sure if I want to keep using Sprint's service.

In other news, I am now 23 years old as of November 12th, 2007. So, if you wish, wish me all of your happy belated birthdays and such. And a huuuge Happy B-Day to Jannifer, whom I believe shares my birthday, or is somewhere around the teens. I can't remember, but I know November is your B-Day month, and I hope that you've had an awesome one.

Uh... I hate Ron Paul. And I hate politics. Thanks, Cetta.

I read over everyone's journals to see how they're doing. It's good to see that everyone's doing well. Krizzy and Ryan are still going strong (thank the Gods, I've been rooting for you guys since the beginning). Looks like April is doing pretty well for herself, too. If I could hug you sis, I would.

I miss my lil' sister Lauren. I haven't spoken to you in so long, and I'd like to know what's going on with you and the Man. I hope that you dudes are still doing well, and that you've found a job and refrained from spending your Trust Fund money. :(

I would shout out everyone, but I can't. I'm tired, and I have a flight tomorrow. Going back home to Brooklyn for Thanksgiving. The little cousin is elated. He can't wait to see how Black/West Indian-folks get down with the cooking (he's my little cousin on my father's side, if you're wondering. And in case you're dumb...yes, he's Japanese).

I miss you all, and I wish I was around to talk to you guys a lot more, but things have just been ridiculously busy for me. Going to work full time, taking care of my lil' cousin (he's 13, btw) has been taking up most of my life. I never thought that taking care of a kid would be so...daunting. Let alone a 13 year old. It's crazy. I'm only 23 for crying out loud!

Well, it's been nice chattin'. Love you fools. Go ahead, drop some comments, and I'll try and respond to 'em.
