| What a life changing day today. Everyone knows what happened. I did not
know Kyle. My parents knew his parents, and that's the extent of my
connection with him. As it turned out, a lot of people did not know who
Kyle was. But should that matter? Does that give people any right to
disrespect what happened with cheesy jokes and comments? I was in the
drafting room in Study Hall when the announcement came on. Ill never
forget that. Similar to 9/11, I wont forget where I was. I'll never
forget that moment of fear when Mr. Bacon said that it was a student
that was found, but hadnt said his name. Was it going to be someone I
knew? Maybe it made it a little easier on me that it wasnt. But we all
get calls like that in life, the announcement that someone we know and
love had died, and we need to respect those that get them when it
happens. What I saw in that drafting room after the announcement, and
throughout the halls as the day went on, made me completely sick. Kids
were making jokes.When a kid comes to school saying one of their
grandparents had just died, how many times do you hear people joking
about that afterwards? All of you freshman in that drafting class, you
make me sick, disgusted, appalled. It's not fair for you to joke around
when there are people in the hallway crying, when there is two parents
that will never see their child again. There is a time in life when you
have to recognize whats real. It could have just as easily been your
best friend that died! This isnt CSI, you're not going to see the same
actor that played the dead body walking around on some other show. You
have seen Kyle walking down the halls and now you wont ever see him
again and you make jokes about it? That's all i have to say to you
bastards.
Now for everyone else, try to take a little something out of what
happened. Next time you get in a fight with someone you love, a best
friend or a parent, make sure that when you leave that room you arent
angry, make sure that when you leave that room you guys still know that
you are friends. That's important. Because in the long run, whatever
you're fighting about doesnt matter. Your relationship with eachother
is much more important then whatever that is. Any moment you say
goodbye to someone it could easily be the last time. It's not about the
little things, it's about love. When you leave your friends house or
say goodbye to your parents, make sure they know you love them.

| So ill update again even though I got a measly two comments last time.
TSA State Competitions were this week while you guys were at school,
and I got 2nd, 4th, and 4th in the three events that I was in. If you
want to see my plaque it will be hung up somewhere in the school, it's
pretty badass im not gonna lie. I have a feeling that this semester is
going to really suck. I dont know why but im just really stressed out
about it. Anyway, Royals opening game is in like two weeks so that
should be pretty sweet. Ummm....Went snowboarding for spring break,
pretty much dominated and now I actually consider myself a "good
snowboarder." Previously I was a "Doesnt get injured (often)"
snowboarder. Yep, thats my life right now. Holla back

| Guess ill update. im finaly up to date with the facebook clan, so I got
that going for me. But I dont see what the big deal is about it, you
cant blog like this. Anyway, school is going all right, all A's and an
F in AP CA 3, so thats pretty nice. Im probably going to quit my job in
the next couple of months, due to the urge to kill myself after every
hour i work. So I basically already started the planning for the trip
to St. Louis for the Chiefs game. We're going to take the train. If you
want to go then contact me, Im going to buy as many tickets as people
who tell me they want to buy one.

| Life is awesome right now. My job is going really well making loads of
money. I won 120 dollars in fantasy football, I got all A's and B's on
my report card, I got my ACT results today and I got a 30 on that. It's
nice not to be stressed out for once.
