seven seas of rhye

everything these days seems like bad timing.

yesterday morning, i learned that one of my good friends, chris yeates, died. he was on the europe trip and was hiking in the alps. he fell. killed instantly.

he was an amazing guy with a good heart and could always make me laugh. he was the older brother that i had lost this year.

i couldn't stop crying.

the person i needed a hug from most is away at camp, and since i'm leaving for oregon for two weeks on thursday, i won't see him until i get back.


people tell me the same thing: "things will get better."

when?

umm, on friday? i am really sorry about your friend, and your other friend being at camp. but, don't you think it will be just a little bit fun to go to oregon?

i leave on thursday because it takes us two days to get to oregon.

and yeah, i think it'll be fun. definitely. i'm not going to let other things ruin the trip for me because there's nothing i can do about them, but, you know, it's shitty that it happened.
