So my grandpa(my dad's dad) died two days ago and my parents are in Mexico right now. My poor dad, I hate seeing him so sad. But my gradfather was old, he was in his 90's. He had a good run. He was the funniest guy ever and I loved him very much. Though I hadn't met any of my family in Mexico until 1999 I still feel pretty close to my dad's family and some of my mom's family. I haven't known them my entire life but it still hurts to know that things aren't always going too great with them. I didn't cry when I first found out about my grandpa because my family finds crying to be a weakness but as soon as I got to school I started to feel really sad. I cried in my 2nd period class for a few minutes and I haven't cried since but I came close a bunch of times. I don't know, I guess I'm not completely depressed about it because I only have really wonderful memories of my grandfather and I'd rather remember him the way he was then than the way he is now.....
