when people you don't really know die
well...found out that this girl that served me at Mcdonalds died
(i would go there on my break) she was the one that was found stabbed to death in Nova Scotia...you probably read about it in the paper or something i'm not sad or anything like that, but it's just..weird... someone that is "somewhat" connected to my life...gone like that! i mean, i never gave her a second thought, maybe exchanged some pleasantries.... haha now that i think about it, i think that she *may* have gyped my on my ice cream once! and it's now that i think about how she has maybe affected me...like...should i have tried to get to know her better or anything like that? bleh~ so far i know 4 kids that i know of (personally) that have died due to unnatural causes...makes me wonder if i'm next ...yeah yeah no topic to this post really

Happened twice this year to me. This regular customer who used to come into the store at the same time every day and give all the girls lottery tickets passed away. So did this guy who worked in a different department then I do. I think I should have felt for them more than I did.

Yeah, Drew, I think that's really been bugging all of us OTW'ers
Lisa told me about it at a party on Friday night, and it's kinda been on my mind. Loni was kinda upset and so is Annie, Eric seems to be weirded out. It's just really creepy, and it's sad that she passed away like that =(

Everyone that I have known not very well has died, I fortunatly have not had anyone close to me pass away yet. So Im glad about that, because this one guy died at my highschool when I was in grade 12 I think, Brendan...and I knew him...but wasn't close friends with him, and when that happened I was so upset, I couldn't even handle going to his funeral because it just hit so close to home.
Him and a guy named Kevin Brooks crashed while drinking n driving, Kevin was into hardcore skateboarding and was almost sponsored I think, and he was driving and he lived, but is now paralyzed from the waist down, and of course now can't skateboard. It was so horrible. And a girl I used to be friends with in like Grade 8-9, I found out at a party (Tazmania to be exact) by a girl I seen there who went to school with us too, she told me that Amber Carter died in her sleep like a week before Brendan died, and I was like wow because I told her Brendan died 2 days ago. :( Last edited by Lady_Venom; Nov 15, 02 at 12:39 PM.

yeah i have had sum ppl who i'm not very close to, but have known (either my parent's friends, or my friends brother who i wasn't relly close with, but had known fer a while) die for various reasons but no one close to me so i relly don't know how to deal with death, or serious injury for that matter...i'm fortunate that no one close to me has died, but i also don't know how i'm going to deal with it when someone does.....like my friends mom died a long time ago and i didn't know that and was like oh well is it ok with yer parents?? n she was like oh yeah my dad....blah blah...and i was like well what about yer mom and shes like shes dead...i didn't even know what to say to her, even tho she had dealt with it cuz it was a long time ago n stuff, i dunno i just have noooo clue how to deal with it, its kinda scary.....

If I got upset everytime someone I saw once but didn't know died I'd get quite the depressed crybaby and probably end up killing myself due to the 'cruelties of the world'.
Someone that once said "Hi" to me is dead.... I care. This much. IMO, why should I care if someone that made that small of a difference in my life died, it wouldn't of mattered if they made contact or not. I'd rather save my "misery" for when it matters. No offense.

It's called compassion, Leslie...I mean, I can understand why you wouldn't be bothered by something like that, but everyone reacts to such events in different ways.
