(no subject)
So I just found out that a girl I used to be really good friends with has died, or apparently killed herself. I use to tell her that with the way she smoked, she would end up killing herself, and she would reply, "that's the point."
It gets me kind of angry that now everybody is posting all sorts of comments on her myspace and facebook saying how much they loved her, what a huge impact she had on their lives, and how much they admired her. You know what, in the time I've known her, these people were never her friends, and I don't remember them even talking to her. So why would you go around saying all of this now? It is understandable that people realize how short life is, and they value their own life all the more, but don't say you love her if you never did. People always do that. As soon as somebody dies they cry and act like they can't understand why. It doesn't matter if they never even said a word to them.
People use the term "friend" too loosely. If you are not close with somebody, are you really their friend? Just because you have a class with somebody doesn't automatically make you friends. I haven't considered myself her friend for over a year now. We had a falling out awhile back, which was over stupid things really, but you know, it happens. I've seen her once at UCF since then. She called out to me, which I was surprised about, and we were polite to each other, but that doesn't make us friends.
I know that Jessie was a sarcastic person and there weren't many people she could stand being around for long periods of times. I do not understand why she killed herself, but whatever the reason, I hope she finds what she is looking for.
And just to make this clear, this post is about no one in particular, and I realize that not everybody is like this. My opinion is also not based only on her death. K? thanks. Oh, and this is the second R.I.P facebook group I've joined... joy
