  • Do you ever wonder
    why bad things happen to good people? I wonder why life has to be so short for
    some. I recently found out that one of my friends from high school had a death
    in the family. Her brother hanging himself. I couldn’t believe it. I was in
    complete shock. It was like could this day get any worse?

                    I
    was at the Texaco after school, because I figured my mom would want a break
    since I haven’t been able to go for the past couple of days. So I’m serving
    customers and I check this guys id because he’s buying beer. I look at the name
    and I’m like omg I know you! It was my friend from like elementary school who I
    grew up with James Baker. He looked so different. But by gosh it was him. So we
    chit chat and then he asks me if I’ve heard what happened to Megahnn Withrow. I’m
    like no, I haven’t. I ask him what happened and he’s like nah never mind. I’m
    like come on; you brought it up you have to tell me now. So he’s like you
    remember Taylor right? I’m like yeah… he’s like well it was his funeral today. I’m
    like no way. He’s like he hung himself on Monday.

                    Now that just got
    to me. He just turned 21, he had the rest of his life to live. Whatever got to
    him must have been either built up or it was very dramatic in his life. I want
    to call her but I have to find her number in my yearbook. If anyone knows whom I’m
    talking about please send her your regards.
