Collin.
Hi. I'm just writing to say, today was my first day of high school.
Good day, a little disappointing. Then i biked home, cause i don't
get a bus. 1.5 miles up a hill to school, 1.5 miles down a hill back.
I got home. Figured out where my brother was, ate a ton, and played
Mabinogi. Then i ate pasta and broccli for dinner. Our sink has been
clogged for a while. It's stressing mom out. I was going to te bathroom
and decided to take a shower. Nice shower I felt loads better. I went up stairs put my dirty clothes in the hamper and put my p.j.'s on. Then
I started to play Mabinogi again. My mom came up. She started off with something along the lines of "Growing up is tough". I asked her what was wrong about three times. Then she said, "You know your friend Collin..." I could feel it comming. I started to cry thinking, "No No NO". "He died today." "no..." Did you know I had a crush on you? Even though we were distant cousins? And remember how I sent you letters in school
and you never wrote back? I had a song for you Collin. Collide by Howie Day. It came from his album called "Stop all the world now" appropite?
I'll never forget you Collin. Never forget your smile. But how come you left us? Why did you leave us? why?! Collin, I love you. And I'll never forget that eaither.
