    This is just crazy! I got an e-mail yesterday from the university public safety or w/e and in it I found out that there had been a shooting at 3:30AM Tuesday here on campus. The freaky part is that it happened in the very room I work in in the maintenance bldg. One of our 3rd shift supervisors is dead (RIP Larry Wallington) and our 3rd shift leader was in the hospital and had to have surgery...

    Been 3 months yesterday since my brother died. Seems like all I do is think about him anymore. It's not fair. I dream of our childhood together and always wake to find that I am alone, trying to find some reason, some explanation as to why this all happened. I've not found one yet. My mom and her husband are in N. Carolina right now. He had a double lung transplant years ago and they thought...

    It's a new year and I don't know what to do......*sigh*. Everything's been turned upside down on me...my big brother's dead...I bombed all of my finals last quarter b/c he died right b/f them...I may lose my full-ride scholarship if I can't bring my grades back up. I've never had problems w/ grades and I was doing fine last quarter until Eric died..then the bombed finals tanked my GPA. I can't...

    Just wanted to say thanks to all who commented on my last two blogs about my brother. His funeral is this morning. Wanted to burn a CD with Papa Roach music on it, but thought they wanted music for after the funeral, not for the calling hrs (yesterday), so that didn't work out at all. He'll be cremated today and be sitting somewhere here until we can afford his plot and headstone. Appreciate...

    He was declared brain dead yesterday at about 10am (read last post), they ran a 2nd test evaluated by another doctor who confirmed it. He was taken of the ventilator at around 5 and died at 5:21. He went peacefully surrounded by friends, family, and love. We're all gonna miss him so much. Wish I could tell the guys of Papa Roach just how much the Youngstown concert meant to hum on his 22nd...

    Hey y'all. My older brother (22) was hit by a truck yesterday morning walking home from work. He's in really bad shape and may not make it. He's had spleen & part of large intestine removed, broken pelvis, hole in diaphragm, hole in his lung, broken arm, fractured ribs, bleeding spot on brain, still bleeding internally (may be kidneys), crushed artery or something in leg-they put in a graft of...

    So, let me break this down for you... 1. I'm a college student in cooperative housing (so a house of 16 girls, not a dorm 2. My roommate violates our roommate agreement 3. The RA encourages and supports this 4. The hall complex director backs the RA 5. They want me to renegotiate the contract to make the violations OK 6....

    Anyone know what happened to that movie Jacoby was in? Near as I know it never was released..what's up with that? Everyone says it's supposed to come out this year, but I've seen no official publication date for it and the year's almost over...what's up? I've been so excited for this movie for awhile! I'm sooooooooo not this patient! Oh well, he's worth waiting for, right? Here's a couple...

    I know, he'll probably see this and be like "oh my God, what have I done...*groan*.....all I did was say to post her comment on the tour blog....crazy girl........" But it's totally exciting for me! I just finished putting it on Facebook....I know, I'm such a dork.....but who cares! So, if you'll excuse me, I'm lost in my happy place and not coming out for a while...

    The concert was amazing! I got to meet Jacoby (and the others) and it was the best day of my life. I don't think anything else will ever compare with that (except maybe meeting him again!).
