I feel like updating. I didn't update for a few days because it didn't feel right to. But I really wanted to.
Huh?
Anyway...
What happened on Tuesday was a horrible horrible thing. I know no one will ever see this, but my prayers are with his family and everyone affected by this. My dad said that "he was definately no hero" but, in my eyes, John Mahoney will always be a hero <3
It was an accident, and in a split second it could've been prevented.
That's what suicide is, I guess? I'm not trying to sound self-righteous or anything, because I don't even know that much about it.
So, again, my prayers are with his family. The silence in their house will be the most horrible and earsplitting noise in the world. Even in the school, this put a silence on the rest of the year. A small one, but it is significant.
John was a fun kid and he'll be remembered for that. As devastating as it sounds now, it'll get better. Eventually all the anger and sadness turns into happy nostalgia :) It sounds weird, but that's what's happened with my cousin and my grandpa.
Time, people. Time.

So yes. Today was an interesting day!!!1 Yesterday was shitty... veery shitty! Yes! Today was better, but bleck. Today was like an adventure, I shpose? It was like "The Adventures of Aly: and the bizaar schoolday!" [da da duh daaaa!] I had that stupid breakfast in the morning and I brought Emily wiff me, I had attempted to bring Pam too, but that didn't go over well LOL! Yeah, woo! Newcombe makes me smile inside. The breakfast was quite awkward. But whatever I got a free bagel. I'm glad it's over though.
AAAAND, in English we did our presentation, and uhm... we were supposed to have a visual aid. And me, being the lazy ass that I am, I never watched the movie we were gonna show, I'm just all like "McCarthyism... WOOOO!!!!!111 This should work!1" I put it in and it's about CBS and Alkatraz. And it was quite comical because everyone's just like WTF? So, I'm gonna watch it this weekend, and we will show it on Monday because HOPEFULLY I can pull something out of it this time... that actually relates to McCarthyism. And HOPEFULLY my lazy ass father won't be asleep on the couch. Bleck!
Rosenburg documentary? Hmmm? What? It looks interesting.
My dad was screaming at me last night anyway. So I made my mom take me to John's wake. That pissed him off. Right now the 2 of them are at my Aunt's Grandma's funeral.
Too much death here.
Things in my life are okay, for the most part. I'm not really all that depressed about anything. My stupid problems seem petty when I look at the big picture now. Certain things could be better, but if you just ignore them, they'll go away.
Hey! 1 month! Not that you care. Because if I was someone else, I would not care either. I, myself, care though, so I guess you should care too. DO IT!!!!
I left "Fight Club" in Sam's car.
