I really don't know what to say...There really arn't words that can describe or relate to what I and the rest of the Virginia Tech community is going through right now. Like many others, I have lost at least 2 close friends, and have yet to gain the strength to read the list of identified victims. Everywhere I turn, a camera man is shoving his obscene tool in the face of some poor student. There are cops around every corner, which although make me feel a little safer, is still a gruesome reminder of everything that happened. Allison and I spent the night in Salem last night with her mom and sister to get out of AJ for a while and almost as soon as we got back, packed up and are now in Lynchburg...we just needed to get out and away from the media and the memories. I'm sick of watching the news and hearing all the repetitive misinformation and the finger pointing...it was a relief in the convocation speeches today that so many good things were said about Hokies and VT and the ResLife staff in recognition of what we're going through. I don't want to say too much in this, because I've already been contacted by the media because my name appeared on a website allong with one of the victims of whom I was close to...But to those wondering, (obviously) I'm ok...shaken and disturbed, but unharmed.

Thankyou to everyone who has contacted me over the past 2 days and for your support...it really means a lot right now
