Well....

I figure I should update this because I have nothing else to do. I was trying to hold off as long as I could but I figure it's time.
It's been hard for our family to get into the holiday spirit with the passing of my brothers close friend. I got home from college the day of the funeral and found about 15 teenagers at my house spending time together after the funeral. It's hard to get happy about Christmas when someone you know really well and spent a lot of time with is gone. I've been sending a decent amount of pictures from my cell phone to facebook lately and every time I do, I see Garrick's name right next to facebook's. I'm never going to delete his number out of my contact list. Out of all my brother's friends, Garrick was the one that I texted the most, mainly to get ahold of Jake before he got a cell phone. But sometimes we would just text each other to make fun of Jake haha, he was a funny kid. It is tough, it's been almost two weeks since he passed, but it's hard to get over. Life will never be the same for my family, mainly my little brother. Plans that they had together are no longer a possiblity, it's just really sad.
We put up the Christmas tree on Sunday and put lights up on the house on Monday, it has helped a little bit, but it still feels like something is missing.

Gonna Miss Ya Garrick

This morning I woke up to my phone buzzing saying I got a new text. It wasn't good news. It was my mom letting me know that my little brother's really good friend had passed away last night due to an asthma attack. My brother and my cousin and another friend of theirs stayed at the hospital with Garrick's family until 2 in the morning. It's so sad :( My brother Jake and Garrick have been friends forever and they had been double's partners in tennis the past 4 years in high school. I've spent a lot of time in my life around Garrick and he was a good kid, was funny and very friendly. I can't believe it happened, I feel so bad for my brother and Garrick's family, no one saw it coming. Garrick will be missed greatly.


Love ya buddy

Geeze Louis

I can't believe it, this week is almost over!!!! After Thanksgiving, we had 2 weeks of school left and Mon-Wed just went by really fast!!!! I can't wait for this semester to get over with though. I signed up for classes late so most of the classes I wanted to take were filled so I had to sign up for a few stupid classes. Next  semester I'm actually taking classes I want to take. 
You should be proud of me though, I'm finally going to pass the class that has been my kryptonite for the past 4 semesters haha, Intro to Communications. It is a required 1 credit class that is only available at 7am on Thursdays, and I've failed it the last 4 times I've taken it haha. It is just dumb and should be worth more than 1 credit with all the stuff we have to do outside of class. But I'm finally going to pass it, so I'm excited haha. 
Christmas break is gonna rock though, gonna be home for like a month haha, I'm gonna be so lazy haha. The place I interned with this summer said they could use me during the break though, I don't know if I should do it though. I had no social life this summer, and I don't want that do happen to me during Christmas break. We'll see what happens.
Hmmmmm, I don't know of anything else to say, just hopefully I survive the next 6 school days haha
