RIP

Okay. Just wanted to toutch on a subject. Friday night, a boy from my school, he was a sophmore, I did not know him personally, I had passed him in the hallway a few times, and knew of him, died. He accidentally shot himself in the chest with a gun he was cleaning to go hunting in the morning. It is a very tragic event in our school, and we all had a moment of silence for him today. It is so sad. He would have been graduating with BV's class. His family will be in my prairs. Please have them in yours too.

  1. Omg... it's so sad. I also went to one funeral yesterday, a friend's mom died out of cancer, it was so sad, like two days ago we were at the exam and joking and laughing and in the evening we found out that her mom died :( life is so cruel and so easily lost...

  3. That is very sad, Andrew, I'm so sorry. It's tough when a young guy loses his life, even when they aren't a close friend. It affects everyone in the school because everyone knows someone who knew him.

    We had a student in our system commit suicide the other day. That school, and all his friends and family are mourning, too.

    The Eric Clapton song is very appropriate.

  4. Sooner or later we all learn the first rule of life; that life is unfair. The best you can do is try and put the odds more in your favor (eg gun safety). I first realized this way back when I read in the newspaper that the smartest and most popular guy who graduated high school with me died in a stupid car accident the following summer. Life can be safe and rewarding if you think ahead and use reasonable caution. A lot of the young guys into 'extreme' sports should visit the disability ward of a hospital; they might then think differently. But we are all gamblers just by living and a completely safe life would be quite boring. - Wayne
